Is Boba's "Execute" bugged?

Does your execute is omega?

Ps; first question to ask ;)

He already said yes it is.

Oops, my bad, please proceeds

Ps. Similar things have happened to me whit a BH squad, i think bombs dmg apply after execute.

Execute doesn't have to have the omega to prevent revive, nihilus annihilation does but iirc level 1 execute if it kills the target they can not be revived. Bit either way it definitely sounds like a bug, most likely a daka bug.

1) zader lead immediately places Dots back on EE, killing him

This was my thought, but if not using Zader, nevermind

I doubt it was a DoT. Was EE exposed? If the execute damage isn't enough to kill EE, but the expose damage at the end is and kills EE then 1) Boba's cooldown's wouldn't have been decreased by 1, and 2) EE would be able to revive because the expose dealt the killing blow, not Execute.

This is also true, the Omega upgrades makes it unavoidable and will decrease cooldowns by 1 on a finishing blow, which is why the cooldown decrease is a good way to check to see if Execute was actually the cause of death and not an expose.

The execute has to kill the toon to prevent revive. Sometimes what happens is that the execute takes them down to 1hp or so and they die from a dot on their turn.

How would they have a dot after using Execute?

I don't know about other people, but I know when I've successfully executed a toon, and when a dot offs them. And a dot has never offed a toon immediately after I used Execute. And they would have to die IMMEDIATELY after using execute for someone to confuse that with being defeated by Execute.

If the toon was, in fact, defeated by Execute, and was then revived, then yes, it sounds bugged.

with Vaders Zeta

Are you sure Daka didn't revive EE with her passive and did her heal immediately after so that it looks like her heal did the reviving? If you were running on 4x speed, it may be hard to keep track of all that. Do you recall if EE had any buffs upon being revived? The unique revive applies defense/offense up buffs but not the heal revive.

Anyway, the bug you could be looking at is the sequential application of buffs/debuffs. Boba executes EE > Daka passive revive > Excute non-revivable debuff applied.

This has happened to me once as well in GW. Bout a month ago. Execute killed Sid > Dakka heal revived him. Figured it was a glitch. Haven't seen it since and I didn't really care because I still won the fight.

P.S. I don't use Zader.

I was running EP leader with Vader, TFP, Shore, and Fett so no zeta. There were no debuffs on EE when he was executed and he revived with no buffs. I hit execute and boom! EE was gone. Daka heals and EE is back. So my TFP one shot EE and killed him finally. According to his execute ability, he shouldn't have revived: "Deal Physical damage to target enemy and dispel all status effects on them. Deal 30% more damage for each effect dispelled. Enemies defeated by this ability can't be revived. Reduce all cooldowns by 1 on a finishing blow. This attack can't be Evaded."

"This is also true, the Omega upgrades makes it unavoidable and will decrease cooldowns by 1 on a finishing blow, which is why the cooldown decrease is a good way to check to see if Execute was actually the cause of death and not an expose."

Now that I actually didn't check!

There was a big thread in bugs section somewhat recently where OP claimed HK revived after using execute. We didn't really come up with anything. People had the theory that expose damage killed him, but according to mechanics, execute dispells before damage.
