JML doesn't dispell buffs when attacks enemy with Foresight

Doesn't look like WAI: can't see that dispell requires the hit, even more - it seems that dispell should be applied before the hit. Instead enemy just evades. Happened in the battle vs JMLS squad with GMY.

    That seems to be worded the same as Chewbacca's special, which will also have the dispell dodged with foresight. Devs have said that is WAI, as the dispell itself is considered part of the attack that can be dodged.
  • yep the above.

    most(if not all) things in abilities that have an attack require the attack to be successful first, before anything else will apply.
  • The exepction is SLKR
    Stasis Strike

    Dispel all buffs on all enemies and Stun target enemy for 2 turns, which can't be copied, dispelled, or resisted. Then, deal Physical damage to target enemy and Kylo gains 20 Siphon until the end of the encounter. On a critical hit, Kylo gains 40 Siphon instead. This attack can't be evaded.

    If the attack can’t be evaded, neither can the dispel. If the attack can be evaded, so can the dispel.

    This. its because the attack can't be evaded. if it could, they would have worded it differently because it wouldn't' work that way without background changes.

    Order in the description mean nothing.
    As other have said it is because the attack can't be evaded.

    Evasion is all or nothing, if part of an ability is evaded it all is.

    B2 was the only ability they specified an order for and they was before they made some things standard
