So how does Dooku's Flawless Riposte work when Zeta'd in Nihilus lead?

Good question

He has 0 protection under Nihilus lead. 10% of 0 is in fact 0 protection gain.

Same could be asked for barriss as she doesn't heal him just equalizes health

It doesnt.

She should equalize, it isn't a heal, at least as it works now with healing immunity

He can't gain protection because he has none, and he can't gain health instead because only health steak works under a Nihilus lead. On the other hand, he will gain a ton of health steal to make up for it.

And he's fast and gets a lot of attacks in so he'll be health stealing a lot. But no raw protection gain. His Zeta is more to make him viable on his own I believe.

If dooku's zeta unique is useless then yeah, I wouldn't recommend dooku in a nihilus squad. You can always daze him with maul, or stun him. He doesn't have a lot of health/protection either, so that is quite useless

Really, cause TFP ship gains protection, even though it has none!

Has anyone actually tested it?

Thats a different protection bar. The purple protection bar is a dispellable buff version of protection. If you use JC's ship to heal the protection on TFP's ship literally nothing happens.

I don't think his zeta is all that tbh. unless you load of up on sooo much protection (which he has a less base amount of too) you can just outdamage him. It should be gain 10% protection whenever he attacks. That's worthy of a zeta
