Yoda gains bonus turn meter despite HK's zeta

Here i believed, naively, that the order of sentences gave the order of actions...
Anyway, they are reviewing this so we should get the official clarification within this year.

His Battle Meditation ability description clearly states otherwise though.

No it doesn't. The only actions that are sequenced in that description is that he spreads buffs after he gives some to himself. The tm gain is a different sentence and there's no "and then" portion of that so by the description could take place before or after or at the same time as the protection up.

Agree. The description doesn't state when he gains TM.

I’m pretty in that specific instance it’s WAI. If JKR, Bastila, Bindo, or GK call GMY to assist nobody moves. I know because I fought a DR squad in arena today and that’s exactly what happened. Needless to say I lost badly.

I dunno, the little green goblin dances a lot less since I put on the zeta....of course he doesnt live long enough to matter much anymore anyways

Yoda nerf incoming. Jedi scum!

I just fought a Yoda under Bastilla lead in GA with Drevan (L), Badstilla and HK and he still gained bonus turn meter from his special while having bonus prot from Bastilla Lead. It's definitely not WAI.

@Woodroward your comments don't bring anything in regard to the topic. Please move on or contribute positively.

I did contribute positively. I explained how their vernacular is consistently interpreted and explained that our perspective is not going to get them to rewrite their preferred vernacular because everyone else has already learned how theirs works. Changing it now to appease you would confuse myriads of other people. (although worded differently)

Consistency is key here. Learn their consistencies and you'll be fine.

I did contribute positively to this conversation. You liking what I had to say is not the determiner of that.

If you gain bonus TM at the start you would then be performing actions in between turns with a bar between 35 to 75% full, which makes no sense. Hence pointing out the "and then". Sorry you didn't understood on the first pass. Now you've been helped.

Also, your vision of the world is not necessarily the same as it appears to everyone, so you shouldn't be talking on other people behalf. If you think switching the TM sentence at the beginning would confuse anyone you are vastly underestimating every other player's intelligence which probably explain the arrogance in your comments. It's not only what you write that I don't like. I don't have any lessons to receive from someone like you.

It's a multinational game, so more effort should be put into the wording and translations.

It isn't an ordered list. It's a description of what happens in no particular order. It uses the same style of writing as it always has. It doesn't even slightly mean that. Insisting it does is having personally maintained ignorance.

Learning how they word things is the way to go, not trying to push your meanings on them. And their parlance is also common and accurate in common English. It's your personal vernacular that has it means something other than what it does, not common English.

I can't tell if you're trolling, but in case you're actually this dense:

then
/T͟Hen/
adverb
1.
at that time; at the time in question.
"I was living in Cairo then"
synonyms: at that time, at that point, in those days; More
2.
after that; next; afterward.
"she won the first and then the second game"
synonyms: next, after that, afterwards, subsequently, later
"she won the first and then the second game"


Anyway, this is a fairly ridiculous bug given that this zeta seems to be pretty much specifically made to hinder Yoda.

I don’t get why people are arguing somantics when devs have sent it to review for the game design team already. It’s not the first time how an ability was written vs how game design devs intended for it to work (or for it to be bugged), doesn’t tally up.

The one take home is that a lot of ability text is written ambiguously.
