I had a Sniper droid in t6 of the Galactic Challenges kill my character while Rey’s ultimate was active. Have a guild mate who had him kill GAS while clones were still active. Has he always had that ability and we just never noticed it in TB? Is this WAI?

Same, Rey's ultimate stance doesn't consistently protect light side allies in this event

Sniper droid has an instantly defeat ability similar to DN. Works the same in TB.

The sniper droid ignores taunt and has a no revive mechanism. Only question is , when can I have one please ?

Wai, unfortunately. Awful mechanic, needs to be scrapped

How can GAS go below 100% health when there are other active 501st? His lead ability is not accurate, no matter how you slice it.

So a few points here.

Yes the sniper droid can defeat GAS with clones there.

Yes he can destroy a toon protected by Reys ultimate, but not Rey.

If you have a video of Rey getting defeated in their way please post it.

I have to run it more to be sure, but it sure SEEMS like he’s getting his destroy mechanism before he gets to 15 stacks of charge. Would be nice if there was some way to verify that he does indeed have that same kit as the TB version.

YES: requires only 5 stacks to “destroy” instead of 15 like the TB version.

Well I just got my Rey "destroyed" by the Sniper Droid, which supposedly shouldn't happen haha

And BTW the Sniper Droid doesn't need 15 stacks of charge to insta kill, its kit states it needs 5 stacks.

Edit #2: Failed the first time because SD went for Finn but the second time it went for Rey again and she only took the "massive damage" of 104,998 (massive damage used to be 99,999 right? And with her Galactic Legend zeta she would take only 69,999).

Edit #3: She got destroyed again, but there are really weird interactions, one time she gets hit while having like 70% health and she survived, the second time, she's at around 90% health and she dies instantly lol, my Rey has more health than the damage she took. I have the videos to prove it, but have some gifs meanwhile.

Edit: Will try to replicate the event where the SD insta kill my Rey and record it

Indeed, just saw that, that he needs only 5 stacks instead of 15 like the TB version.

If she isn't in the ultimate stance and wounded it may happen - destroy effects turn into massive damage for GLs.

She wasn't in her ultimate, that's right, but she had full health and some protection yet she died in one hit, in my third attempt she survived the hit with around 70% health and no protection, so there's something weird there
