Cleansing abilities not working on Poggle or GBA against Nightsisters

Product: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes
Platform:Android Phone
What type of device are you experiencing the issue with? Motorola G7 Play mobile phone
OS Version Android version 9
Ally Code: (Find it here: http://bit.ly/AllyCode ) 128-856-313
What type of issue do you have? Gameplay
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Summarize your bug The cleanse ability from Poggle the Lesser (Warlords Resolve) and also from Geonosian Brood alpha (Conscription) isn't cleansing stun from my geonosians during battles against Nightsister teams. I will have multiple geonosians stunned and the clean won't take away stun and i lose a turn. I also am having issues during GAC where my game will freeze 5-10 seconds into the battle giving me an automatic loss because i need to force close the app because it won't unfreeze otherwise. When i log into the game again, the previous encounter is shown as a loss and i have to bring in another counter team to beat a TM advantage defense team. I've lost GAC matches because i couldn't full clear my opponents teams in 1 shot whereas my opponents didn't have this bug happen and full cleared my team. Teams i've noticed it happen with most often are Tray lead teams against Geonosians or Jedi Revan Teams vs other Jedi Revan teams.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? In a GAC battle, test Geonosians vs Nightsisters. Very often, the stuns that Daka is inflictingcan't be cleansed by the Poggle or GBA. In the case of the battles freezing, see if the game freezes within the first 30 seconds in GAC wen using Traya or Jedi Revan on offense.

    @obikenobi123 For your battles against Nightsister teams, are your geonosians suffering from the Plague debuff?

    If so, one effect of plague is that other debuffs can't be cleansed. Therefore this is working as intended.

    Your correct that I was suffering from plague, so that makes sense I couldn't cleanse stun. Thanks

    When cleansing abilities are not working as expected in "Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes" (SWGOH), especially against Nightsisters, it can be frustrating. Here's a breakdown of potential reasons and solutions:

    Possible Reasons for Cleansing Abilities Not Working

    1. Nightsisters' Unique Abilities and Zetas:

      • Asajj Ventress: Her unique ability, "Rampage," gains stacks of offense and health steal when an ally or enemy is defeated. If she has her Zeta, she gains these benefits even more significantly.
      • Mother Talzin: Her unique ability "Plaguebearer" applies Plague, which can spread and resist cleansing.
      • Zombie's Taunt: Nightsister Zombie can often taunt and respawn, making it difficult to target the right Nightsister.
      • Daka's Revives: Old Daka can revive fallen Nightsisters, complicating the battle.

    2. Debuff Mechanics:

      • Plague: Plague cannot be cleansed unless the unit is healed to full health. Characters with low health may not get fully healed, preventing Plague from being removed.
      • Healing Immunity: Some abilities or debuffs might prevent healing, making it impossible to cleanse Plague.

    3. Buff Immunity and Resistance:

      • Buff Immunity: If a character is afflicted with Buff Immunity, they can't receive buffs, including cleanses.
      • High Tenacity: Nightsisters may have high Tenacity, making it harder for cleanse abilities to land effectively.

    Strategies to Counter Nightsisters

    1. Team Composition:

      • High DPS Characters: Use characters with strong single-target damage to quickly eliminate key Nightsisters.
      • Characters with Healing Immunity: Apply Healing Immunity to prevent revives from Old Daka and reduce the effectiveness of their healing.
      • Characters with Anti-Revive Abilities: Use characters like Boba Fett, Jango Fett, or Darth Nihilus, who can prevent revives.

    2. Turn Meter Control:

      • Turn Meter Reduction: Characters like Thrawn or Tarkin can reduce the enemy team's turn meter, controlling the pace of the battle.
      • Speed: Make sure your key characters are faster than the Nightsisters to gain the upper hand.

    3. Ability Usage:

      • Prioritize Cleansing at the Right Time: Use cleansing abilities when they will have the most impact, such as when Plague is widespread or crucial characters are debuffed.
      • Stun and Ability Block: Use stuns and ability blocks to control key Nightsister abilities.

    4. Modding:

      • Tenacity and Health: Mod your characters with high Tenacity to resist debuffs and high Health to survive longer.
      • Speed: Ensure your cleansers and key damage dealers are fast to act before the Nightsisters.
