How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
Summarize your bug Embo’s Payout says that he takes a bonus turn every time he critically hits (with no consecutive bonus turns). Turns out this works half the time at most.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Give Embo high crit Chance then put him on a team with a Bossk lead.

Embo’s Payout States he takes a bonus turn every time he critically hits, but for me it happens no more than half the time. I’ve tried this with a Bossk lead most of the time. I just tried a Jango Fett lead and I noticed something else weird — every member of the party took two turns before Embo did. Maybe that was a fluke, but the speeds are close. I’ll update this if changing the lead  helps

I attached a video (skip to Phase 3), but it’s probably in QuickTime format (attached from my iPhone). If you need it, I’ll upload it to Youtube.

Thanks!

  • Hi @gjarboni and thank you for the update and the additional video.

    It looks indeed as if Embo is able to take two bonus turns when transitioning to another encounter. We flagged this for further investigation now.

  • Hi @gjarboni and thank you for the report.

    The video would surely be helpful, so if you can upload it to Youtube (for example) and provide us with the link, that'd be great!

    Hi, and thanks for the video, it was very helpful!

    This seems to be working as expected. At 5:40 in the video, Bossk calls Embo to assist. At that point Embo has about 40% turn meter. Embo’s attack is a critical hit, so he immediately gets a bonus turn. On that bonus turn, he gets another critical hit, but is unable to get consecutive bonus turns, so his turn meter just resets like normal.

    So it seems to be working just fine. Did that explanation make sense?

    Yes, I understand the explanation (after some thought 🙂. Maybe that’s it and all of the times he got a bonus turn were after critical hits on assists. The video only has one instance of a “missed” bonus turn. I see this really often on Bounty Hunter events, so I’ll try finding a better example.

    Thanks,

  • Okay, I never noticed the “bonus turn” text that appears when a character is called to assist 🙃 But now I have the opposite bug to report. Embo can take bonus turns if the bonus turn is on the next phase. I’ll post the video in a bit but it’s at 1:00 on the video. Also, the bonus turn text doesn’t show up in this instance. Not on the second or third consecutive turn 🙃

    Yeah, looks like crossing into a new phase causes Embo to forget he's already taking a bonus turn, so he can get another one.

    I've seen it in the Rebel Roundup where he will crit, get a bonus turn, use Many Disintegrations to get another bonus turn, crit again, and get another bonus turn because his last bonus turn wasn't from his payout.
