So yesterday evening I was doing my 3v3 fights in GAC and I was using JTR to inflict healing immunity to get the feat that requires you to apply it 30 times. I hit the other team (bossk and dengar) with healing immunity almost a dozen times and yet not a single instance of it worked towards the feat. Is this a bug? Is JTR healing immunity somehow different because it's undispellable?This was done live on Twitch, so if anyone doesn't believe me or wants to see proof that it didn't work, I'd be happy to drop a link to my channel with the specific time where I do that battle. Please note that my stream is not kid-friendly and has plenty of cursing. Also, please excuse the rage as I had gotten Nested twice.*Edited for spelling*

I don't know even know if it qualifies as sarcasm. I was just playing around. Target was smart enough to tell, ah yes, satire is what it qualifies as.

The attempt part comes before the tenacity check (which is skipped in this instance, but that's actually irrelevant, or should be). It's two separate checks. Computer programming doesn't use the same logic you do. RJT's healing immunity should count for the feat.Edit: Also, I didn't keep track, but I assume that guaranteed failures counted as well - trying to inflict buff immunity with CBM, for example.

Probably a bug but who even knows - they'd probably come up with some obscure reason for why it doesn't count (that they conveniently decided not to share with anyone in the description of the feat). The healing immunity you get from Dooku lead doesn't count either. This is ridiculous.

I also experienced this. Was wondering if it had anything to do with JTR’s healing immunity being locked and somehow they missed adding locked healing immunity to the code to count attempts.

I just use Malak against Droideka or NS with only basic attacks at max stacks.
Got 22/30 after my battle.

Not obscure. They changed it because according to canon she is a healer. She healed a snake and Kylo...

So why would she stop someone from healing. That's why they did it, but didn't change the text. <--- true story

So wait, the reason it doesn't count towards the quest is because her kit doesn't match cannon? No offense to you personally, but that sounds like the dumbest thing I've ever heard. They can't just arbitrarily decide to change her kit but not actually change it like that. I don't believe that for a second.

It seems more likely to me that her healing immunity is coded differently because it's undispellable, and they didn't take that into account when they programmed the feats. Which is still terrible, of course.

Oops. It can be hard to tell what's sarcasm and what isn't online :/
