Don't care if there is another thread, if this needs to be merged, so be it. I come here to usually read what others have found and usually keep to myself so I don't normally create topics etc.But I thought it would be wise to bring up known bugs I've come across for DN. Specifically GW and his Ability Annihilation used under specific circumstances. One, DN as lead on GW will remove all sith protections as per leader ability. Once swapped for another leader, said siths will not regain protection. The final bug is when using annihilation as the final move for the round with no remaining enemies. Used in either GW or even events at the end of battle wave. If annihilation is used as the killing blow, DN does not siphon health as ability states, but only under these conditions does this error happen. This becomes troublesome leading into next battles or nodes in GW.

Can be missed easily but yeah there was a thread here.

Annihilate does not heal nihilus, it only heals him in raids because it does damage there, otherwise it does no damage, it just kills the target. But you gain the targets max health into your own,

Same here. I have zzDN and he does not heal when using special abilities.

Another DN question with regard to GW:If cooldowns are supposed to carry over across battles, and Drain Force is supposed to reduce the cooldown of Annihilate, why is it that when a battle ends and you go on to the next node, the cooldown for Drain Force is still there, but Annihilate has reset back to 8?

Annihilate cooldown resets for each encounter, as each node is an encounter, they have it designed to reset each time, this is to prevent folks from setting up annihilate to be ready first thing and clear the hard nodes, this has been deemed WAI and WAD previously by the Devs

Are you not supposed to gain max health when you use annilate in GW or other normal encounters?? I thought his max health increased not healed?

Correct, his max health increases, It's only in raids that he heals on annihilate, because the raid bosses are immune to it, so it deals 99,999 damage, which heals nihilus, Any other area you use annihilate tho you gain increased max health,

First of all ^ this. DN doesn't heal himself, he gains MAX health. So on top of your lets say 30k total health, you gain more. You don't heal yourself up.

Second - It is not bug that when you switch from DN lead to another lead, you don't regain your protection. If it did work as that -> Use your usual(let's say Zmaul) team, they are left with low hp, put DN as a leader, regain all of their health, go back to ZM and now they have full health + protection. Yeah, not going to happen.
