Going by ability descriptions, Stormtrooper loses 40% offense from his unique each time a defeated ally is revived
So if you had Stormtrooper + Royal Guard + Old Daka in the same team, and Royal Guard is defeated, Stormtrooper gets +40% offense, but when Old Daka revives RG, he loses that 40% offense, and gains that 40% defense again
So in Gideon's scenario, when he revives an imperial trooper with his unique, stormtrooper won't have the +40% offense even though they were defeated once since they aren't currently defeated anymore
Thanks for your interpretation. Based off your comment and another person I talked to, Synergy, it seems like this all comes down to an English lesson. Defeated is being used as a verb for Veers, Grievous, Asajj "when an ally/enemy is *defeated*." Whereas Stormtrooper is using defeated as an adjective by looking for *defeated* Empire allies. Unfortunate if that is the case. I do not see Stormtrooper as a result getting the Pao and HRS treatment. Maybe the offense boosts Gideon grants in the lead might do something if Imperials are dying around Stormtrooper but I am not expecting something crazy like Pao and HRS. Thanks for the help guys!
Maybe a Stormtrooper rework is due ...
Wall of Stormtroopers - Unique Final text: Stormtrooper gains 40% defense for each living ally and 40% offense whenever an ally is defeated.
While Stormtrooper is active, Imperial Trooper allies have +30% defense.
