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
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
