What type of issue do you have? Gameplay
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Summarize your bug Darth Sion’s AoE ability gets countered by characters with retribution even though the ability removes all buffs from the other team and without retribution those characters have 0% counter chance.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Use his AoE against enemies with retribution that don’t gain counter chance from anything except the retribution.

Characters I was countered by are General Kenobi, Captain Rex, Mother Talzin, Grand Admiral Thrawn, and Wampa. No one was fractured, so Thrawn’s counter chance should have been 0%. Wampa I understand countering, but it’s the other 4 that’s shouldn’t have countered.

    Thanks for the reports everyone. This IS working as intended:

    Darth Sion's "Torment" ability clearly states that it deals Physical Damage to all enemies and THEN dispels all buffs on them.

    Compare that skill to Embo's basic, which states that it dispels all buffs AND deals damage, or Death Trooper's "Death Trooper Grenade" which states that it deals Physical Damage to all enemies AND dispels all buffs on them.

    It's describing two separate actions with the same skill - the first one is unavoidable damage (thus allowing it to work on characters with Foresight). This damage means that anyone who counterattacks (due to Retribution or Legendary Battle Meditation) will trigger the counter. Then, all buffs are removed. Now that Torment has finished, each character who triggered a counterattack will now execute that action.
