Tenacity
Can someone explain why the devs cant get tenacity to work correctly? If i have rex at 80% and you get a built in resistance of 15% then I should only get debuffed 5% of the time. or if the ot...

This seems really backwards IMO. It would make more sense if Tenacity - Potency = Chance to debuff. 80%T vs 65%P should only debuff 15% of the time
using dfferent numbers kinda ruins the logic behind that formula though
15% tenacity - 80% potency = -65% chance to debuff
I should have specified that the higher stat would get the priority, so in your example it would still equate to 80P-15T= 65% debuff
Better yet, each stat should simply get their own roll.
80% tenacity = resisted True/False
65% potency = applied True/False
Repeat rolls in event of tie
What happens when both roll true????

Yup. Leef is right on here. Arena and the game in general would not be nearly as fun/strategic if it was nearly impossible to land debuffs.
i think tenacity needs to work on a curve. if you go heavy tenacity it should resist much higher than it does now. if you only go with 20-45% it should work like it does now.
Personally, I feel like potency is the harder stat to get here. I feel like toons resist just fine. Plus there are so many cleansers out there, and at least three toons that give group tenacity up, which 100% resists everything except tenacity down. Empire/Sith teams DEPEND on debuffs, and there are already so many lightside counters to debuffs. Maybe tenacity could be a little better, but it doesn't need a huge buff. Already with the 15% lower asymptote, if you do two AoEs that each apply two debuffs, you can expect three of those to be resisted with huge pitency levels, to say nothing of the attempt chance to apply. Throw in some tenacity higher than 15%, and maybe at the end, a little over half of them stick.
I get being upset that an 80% tenacity Rex (who can cleanse and throw tenacity up) can't resist, but how many mods did the other person have to farm to get 90% potency? Even with Palp lead, that's 55%, which is maybe a full set or really good primaries.
