Question about Palpatine and his unique

Ever since the big Palpatine and Vader rework I noticed that "crackling doom" doesn't seem to work as it is intended to. Rebels and jedi are not taking damage like they used to which made him a staple on my Sith based team. Is it not functioning properly or is it working differently because of the rework. And please don't repost this anywhere else I just need to know if I'm using him right.

    He lead and cleared all six days of the last dstb without the zeta for me
  • Keep in mind that CLS and JTR dont have jedi tags so they dont get hit as often. I personally like him very much but I am on the lower spectrum of arena (level 75). My shard is dominated by phoenix teams which he just demolishes. Especially since phoenix teams build up speed to be effective, the new cracking doom takes that advantage so hard. I used my own phoenix team to fight EP teams a few times, Ezra just drops dead after a minute.
  • Going slow wouldnt help win the battle by a phoenix team

    You need tenacity up or stuns and fractures, which phoenix simply doesnt have.

    I had high doubts but he seems to be doing good. I partially forgot that when a character dies any debuffs expire so would count towards his new leader ability part.
