Potency Check

No check.

As long as it hits it will remove the buff

Applying debuffs and removing turn meter are the only things that go through a potency check.
So yeah Drain Force doesn't do a potency check it's just 50% against enemies with no debuffs and 100% against debuffed enemies,

Yes at least one still does : Plo Koon’s basic is removing a buff or multiple buffs but sometimes you can think it’s bugged and sometimes it works without explanation.
In fact, it’s related to an ancient formula about removing buffs abilities that were doing a potency check before. It’s long gone and Plo is the last remaining piece of it.

Thanks. What about drain force reducing a cooldown? I guess what decides if there is a potency check or not? I dont think it has to apply a debuff? I think I have seen STHan TM reduction be resisted but it doesnt apply a debuff. Just a negaive effect.

Perfect sense. Thank you.

I know this is an old thread but I noticed that my Bastila Shan was failing to dispel taunts on Mace Windu's auto taunt under a mirror teams Bastilla lead. I put potency mods on her and now she almost always dispels enemy buffs. I realize this is not part of her basic attack as in the cases above, but this seems to suggest that potency checks do apply even though the language of the ability description seems to guarantee that the dispel will land and apply. Its annoying I hate to fill mod slots with potency when I could have CC. Just my unsolicited 2 cents.

Mace Window's auto taunt?

Jedi tanks get a pre-taunt under Bastilla.

You probably won’t remember if he did but the taunt wouldn’t be dispelled if mace had foresight.

Oh wow, that should nake Mace and Plo considerably more useful if they are built up already. I have a 4* Bastilla never used her
