Chimaera Strategic Dominance Bug

Hi @jedilord1.

We've tested this today excessively and when our opponent used "Strategic Dominance" it did not increase the cooldown of our ability to reinforce.

@GladOS-013, perfect description of a possible scenario!

hmm, no i don´t use phantom2..
you are testing it not correct, you have to use tarkins ship (it´s all about chimaera vs. tarkin)...
tarkins ship is faster than chimaera, so it´s the 6th turn after the opponent uses startegic dominance

since the geos and geos with hounds tooth has come to arena there is almost no opponent left in arena who playes with chimaera, but i could almost swear that my memories tell me after opponents strategic dominance i had to use tarkins basic ability and couldn´t call reinforcements

@GladOS-013

please blame EA not me^^
they had needed about 6 months to decide that a reinforcement is no ability and so the "not increase" of reinforcement is WAI...

and i should remember some battles months ago?
i surley can say there were no TIE reaper in game..  since the ships2.0 desaster noone uses that ship anymore (including me) in my shard
tie fighters are usually in game, but i never hit tie fighter with someone other than vader or poe´s special, i also don´t use AOE-attacks if TIE fighter is in game

7th turn is not possible if you use tarkin, after tarkins ulti noone is alive

my report was months ago, the update that this behavior is WAI is new (07.09.2018) and i already said that i only can write here what i can recall from my remebers

if my remembers are correct the issue must be still online, because nobody has changed anything since EA´s decission that the "no increase" of reinforcements are WAI now

no i havn´t seen this happen recently because i don´t fly with tarkin anymore, so i´m not able to see it for now...

you never told that you have tested it correctly... you only told that your cooldown of your chimaera wasn´t increased, but as i have said, this test was incorrect because you have to use tarkin and not chimarea

i would be lucky if i can test this issue on my own, but i have no testaccount, or some extra fights for free

but it would be really easy to test it with a testaccount... run a maxed tarkin with nothing else than tanks, choose an opponent who is using a maxed thrawn (with no TM manipulation ships), try to survive chimaeras ulti. and than check if your tarkin can call reinforcements the very next turn

Hi @jedilord1 !

1.  EA_HighCommand posted last week that they had tested it "excessively" but been unable to reproduce the bug you are trying to report.  

2.  I do not have a test account - I am a player like you, so I do not the ability to set up whatever battles I want to test, and I do not often have excess fleet battles to use for testing purposes.  However, when I do fight Executrix Fleets, and I fire off my Strategic Dominance, the enemy reinforcements are always 100% what I would expect without any increased cooldowns.  

Since it has been tested recently, and your reports of it being a bug are strictly based on what you remember from months ago (and not recent experience), perhaps there is no current bug with respect to this cooldown.  

I appreciate your bringing a potential concern, and it was "excessively" tested to verify, but so far nobody (yourself included) is experiencing this issue, so perhaps this thread can be closed.
