I wonder if this is similar to this:
https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Sion-taunting-on-toon-s-turn-without-fear-debuff/m-p/7068610#M18287

It seems like a character with Pain takes their turn. Sion gains taunt, then Traya clears the debuffs.

It's been a while since I've used my Traya squad...was it always like this, or did Sion not taunt before? It's possible the "order of operations" for the taunt vs the debuff-removal was changed in this patch.

Against a team that has Traya with her unique zeta, it didn't matter if the character had pain, Sion never taunted because the Pain was cleansed.
Don't think it's the order of operations, my DN sometimes got pain and it got cleansed, still could attack other than Sion

Just did an arena match and had this happen too. It's definitely new behavior since today's patch as I never had this happen before.
Attached a screenshot.

Same bug here. Seems like when Traya cleanses the Pain at the start of a Sith ally, the enemy sion keeps taunting. It seem only to happen if the pain is removed by Traya's unique, and not by any other source.

It’s definitely functioning differently. I think it’s actually working properly now. According to the abilities taunt should be up even if pain is cleansed.

Seems like that would be a sneaky bug fix if this is how it's actually intended to be, months and months after the fact. This makes Traya unique a lot less useful. Being that it wasn't included in the list of bug fixes, it is likely a bug. Why did the order of Sion's unique switch with Traya's unique now? Both state actions at the beginning of the turn. Traya's was happening first since initial release.

I am having the same issue. Against certain team compositions and mod sets this is a huge disadvantage and change to how traya lead has been working against enemy sion since release.

It's definitely not working properly because the behavior is inconsistent depending on if you're attacking or defending. I.e. Enemy Sion will taunt after ally Traya cleanse, but your own Sion will not taunt after enemy Traya cleanses.

Bugs like this one are unacceptable in title releases. Was this update even tested?
