Why does Traya's Isolate not allow a revive?

Also, the spirit of the Isolate ability is to prevent a character from being helped by their allies, thus isolating them. With this in mind, why should Boba's revive be prevented? It's an ability that does not depend on any ally.

thrawn still gives an isolated character tm. That seems like a positive effect.

Thrawn doesn't give them TM, he swaps his TM with theirs, it's a subtle difference. I'm pretty sure the devs have said this is WAI.

Bosses need to block revives. Maybe not 100% or right away, but it makes forms with revives way more poweful than others vs bosses.

That's a good thing, it gives revive characters a place to shine. Healers and revivers are not very popular in arena and are not as widely used as the other classes in the game.

Because being revived is considered a "positive effect" which is prevented.

Positive effects include:
Turn Meter Gain
Health Recovery
Protection Recovery
Assist Attack
Buffs
Revive
Ally Dispel
Health Equalization
Cooldown reduction

While not directly stated in game, but outlined in the character profile in the forum, what would you consider a "positive effect"?

Reviving is a pretty big help...

That thinking is flawed since boba can revive on his own..

But yeah, it is what it is.

What about night sister zombie? She helps herself

She helps herself... only in the presence of other Nightsisters. So if you kill them all then she is in effect... isolated. Then her self resurrection won't work. Or, Treya can isolate her.

Personally, I would consider a positive effect to be a buff....... Anything adds a green status effect.... It's just a wording thing.

To me, blocking an ability from working is different.... I'm sure it's WAI, just could be worded better.....

Yes, but there are many other "positive effects" in this game, to say the only positive effects are buffs is a little narrow of a description. Also if it was buffs then wouldn't it just say that.

I don't think that revive should be prevented by isolate. Revive occurs after a unit has died. Once a unit dies they no longer have any negative status effects, which should include isolate. If a unit is isolated and killed, and then a revive is attempted 5 minutes later, that dead unit should not still be considered isolated just because it died while having that debuff. Of course it's WAI, but it doesn't really make any sense.
