According to the mechanics on swgoh.gg, the protection up buff doesn't apply again once it has successfully been applied in someone's turn.

So judging from that, if JKR calls mass assists, as soon as the 1st jedi attacks out of turn, the target will gain prot up. If the next 3 jedi burn through that protection, the 4th will NOT cause a new stack of prot up since the constraint I bolded above states that it will skip since it was already applied once that turn.
I understand how it works. I’m trying to say that it shouldn’t work that way.
Gotcha. I thought you were asking what it's interaction with mass assists currently are.
I agree with you though. It definitely should not work that way, with the prevalence of toons with mass assists like GK and Revan. A single application of 40% protection up isn't really going to do much for Padme and gang when you're getting swarmed by Jedi with a plethora of offensive bonuses + Yoda who can hit you for 80k damage.
Even if they made it to where it only the zeta upgrade can make prot up apply more than once(non stacking) during a swarm attack, that would be better.
