Why does Traya's Isolate not allow a revive?

Can you revive the dead character if another of your heroes becomes isolated (and not the healer doing the reviving)? That would seem to fit with the description of Isolate better.

Well in the case of say Boba Fett or Sion it’s an actual buff that causes them to revive so I can see how Isolate can prevent it. But say GK dies while isolated. Can Jolee Bindo or Visas Marr revive him two turns later?

Nope. If they die while they’re isolated, they can’t come back.

I’d say I’m surprised but considering what it takes to even get Traya I’m not. Oh well.

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.

Actually that would apply to Sion’s Held by Hatred too. He’s already a very solitary character. He’s using his own hatred and the Force to keep himself alive and together.

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

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 would rather a narrow description than a ambiguous one " positive effect " is every characters unique. isolate dosnt stop imperial troopers giving each other tenaciy or hit damage or chance from there unique. I think it means visable effects so anything you can see eg heal ,tm gain,buffs.
With boba it might be different though as his revive is a locked buff idk

Reviving is a pretty big help...

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.

Her revive can’t be prevented

Yes I know. I shouldn't based on the way it's described IMHO, but it's not the only inconsistency.

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

I agree that is also inconsistent, and could be a bug.
