Summarize your bug Dominance does not prevent counter attacking. I only tried Hux as a lead in geo TB, and this happened every wave. I don’t know if this is happening in other game modes.

    Hi @Pengin83 and thank you for the report. Also, thanks to everyone else, chipping in additional information.

    There are currently a few bugs related to General Hux "Dominance" which we have already flagged as bugs and the team is already working on. This includes, but is not limited to, him gaining "Dominance" in squads where not all members are First Order, getting countered with "Dominance" and not re-gaining "Dominance" at the beginning of his turn.

    @Pengin83 Which squad did you use? Did you capture it in Video? Did Hux still have dominance, but it expired and you didn’t notice?

    Squad = Hux (lead), phasma, FOTP, FOST, and sith trooper (new one).  No video.  And the counterattacks happened throughout each wave.  In wave 1, counterattacks happened before the enemy’s first turns, so there was no way to lose dominance.  After wave 1, I paid special attention to make sure the icon was still above Hux’s head when the enemy countered.

    There is more things buggy with dominance on Hux.

    If he is not in a full FO team he still seems to be able to gain it though according to his kit description he shouldnt be able to.

    Added screenshot of hux kit where dominance is described and a screenshot where I did a battle in the mod battles using DR and Malak under hux lead and as you can see in the screenshot on his turn he gains dominance.

    @WitnessedJarl I believe what you're seeing is the result of the skill description being written in a confusing manner. What it should say is:
    "General Hux gains Dominance at the start of each of his turns, if he didn't have it. If all allies are First Order at the start of battle, General Hux gains Dominance at the start of each encounter."

    By writing it the way they did, the "and" is meant to separate the two ways in which Hux can gain Dominance, but they didn't specify that the "full FO squad" requirement only applies to the first half.

    @GladOS-013 Your response is clearly incorrect.  Second paragraph of Hux lead was specifically reworked to require a full First Order team to trigger (and that would include gaining dominance at beginning of encounter).

    https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/221107/incoming-general-hux-kit-changes 

    "After this update, part of Hux's Unique, Boundless Ambition, and Leader ability, Bow to the First Order, will only trigger if he's in a full First Order squad."

    This bug (and the fact that dominance persists after Hux is defeated, even after a phase change in raid) has massive ramifications for top meta battles in arena and heroic sith raid. 

    I understand that you're a volunteer and not part of the dev team.  But if you are going to respond with inaccurate answers, I would ask that devs respond to these bug reports rather than volunteers with inaccurate information or speculation.

    @slbr80 I guess we will see the intended functionality. My interpretation of the skill is valid for the way it's written, and only the studio devs (who don't respond here) can know what they intend Dominance to do. So when the skill gets fixed, we will see if the functionality is wrong, or just the skill description is written incorrectly.

    Please note that I would never intentionally answer with "inaccurate" information.

    Thanks for your response. The way it is written and also going by EA_highcommand response makes me lean towards it being a bug. We'll have to wait and see
