Could anyone explain, why b2 can not inflict buff immunity with his mow down, when facing padme,gk, and c-3po?His buff immunity is applied before damage, so first it should stick to gk, than any crits are done and only then gk should try to taunt, giving him prot up from c3 (which shouldn't happen, cause there is buff immunity). I've got a video when gk resists those debuffs.Prot up from c-3po's unique shouldn't apply to kenobi giving him unresistibility.

When B2 dispels Prot Up from the allies of GK, he gains taunt...so looking at the mechanics on swgoh.gg:1. B2 uses mow down, dispelling Prot Up from GR allies. This instantly triggers GK unique to taunt, which in turn instantly triggers C3PO's unique to add Protection Up to him.2. Now B2 attempts to apply Buff Immunity, which he cannot, since GK has Prot Up.Yes, it sucks...and probably shouldn't work this way, but because of the way Mow Down is coded, the buff immunity is applied AFTER the dispel but before damage. It is WAI, as weird as it is.

@Dryff I'm not talking when he has prot up. Im talking at the start of the battle, when b2 goes before the enemy. Gk doesn't have any prot up at that moment. So buff immunity should be applied.@Thessaodai145 the "before damage" is in the definition of b2 skill. It says clearly that it's applied before damage, so noone can have any crit immunity yet, and gk can not have taunt at that moment.Edit:Ahhh gk doesn't have prot up, but ahsoka has. So now it's clear. Ahsoka gets dispelled, giving gk taunt and prot up, making him resist everything. Forgot about that new gk mechanics, that he taunts when someone loses prot up.Thank you @Dryff , now it's clear what is happening.

Yeah Ahsoka gets Crit Immunity to start the battle. When dispelled by B2, grants GK Taunt (per his zeta) which also grants him Prot Up (per C3PO), which means he is immune to buff immunity.I think people are still figuring out combos for the GR team, because I didn't know any of this before this thread! :D

My guess would be that damage is done and then buff immunity is applied. If you have proof that buff immunity goes on first then it's either a bug or gk just resisted buff immunity in the first place.

OK, but buff immunity still has to pass the tenacity/potency check. There's nothing to stop GK resisting buff immunity due to his own tenacity.

He resists it by having prot up in a padme team. If you have prot up, you resist everything.

Yes, but even without protection up, which you stated he didn't have due to it being the start of the battle, he can still resist it due to the tenacity/potency check.

But now with Dryffs help everything is clear.

How does Snips start the battle with protection up? Crit Immunity from Anakin +3p0? Hadnt noticed that before.

Yeah Ahsoka gets Crit Immunity to start the battle. When dispelled by B2, grants GK Taunt (per his zeta) which also grants him Prot Up (per C3PO), which means he is immune to buff immunity.

Yeah. I zetaed GK and then havent found a good replacement for in in my JKR team so now I'm using CWC with Padme.

Hoping one of the new/reworked Jedi gets a pre-taunt.
