Weather The Storm Data Disk is causing Immunity to Most Buffs

The new Data Disk Weather The Storm states that all allies are immune to damage and debuffs until the start of their first turn. This seems to be extending to Immunity to most Buffs as well, which causes some teams to become limited in effectiveness after Weather the Storm (more than the previously reported issues with Great Mothers).

So far I’ve seen:

  • Bad Batch allies under Omega Fugitive are not gaining the locked Stealth until their first turn (even if Omega uses Our Way Out)
  • Bad Batch allies under Omega Fugitive are not gaining Target Practice until their first turn
  • Crosshair *is* still gaining Shaken despite it being a debuff (which isn’t a huge deal but is an exception)
  • Hutt Cartel allies under Jabba are not gaining My Kind of Scum
  • Boba Fett is not gaining Bounty Hunter’s Resolve / Krrsantan is not gaining Taunt
  • Boushh *is* gaining a stack of My Kind of Scum from her own Unique

  • Some of these may be inconsistent, as Krrsantan has been Taunting on other battles (I think he gains Taunt at the start of the battle, but won’t regain it if it’s dispelled before his first turn), but the disk shouldn’t affect Buffs at all.

  • I have the same issue. If you have this activated and use great Mothers team it starts an endless loop where you cant apply the initial buff and it keeps asking you to apply again. You have to then quit the battle as you cant progress any further. I obviously keep forgetting and wasting 20 conquest energy every time i attempt this

     

  • The datadisc does work. It prevents damage and debuffs from being inflicted upon characters. It, however, also prevents buffs from being applied on your characters. Characters with the Weather The Storm buff (haven't taken a turn since the encounter's start) are unable to gain buffs. This is shown in both of the attached screenshots. In the first one it's after using POW's ability with his omicron active, which should give each active ally a multitude of buffs, but only him and Kelleran got the buffs, while everyone with the Weather The Storm effect didn't. The seconds was taken right after using MQJ's second special, which is supposed to give all Galactic Republic allies tenacity up, and once again it is only given to those without weather the storm (Quadme and himself)

    Weathering the storm is only supposed to block debuffs but (as you already know with the Great Mothers endless loop) it is also stopping buffs.

    Just making a post about it also blocking bounty hunter's resolve as well to make sure its known. (Plus it stops The Mandalorian from being able to use Disintergrate since he cannot gain Crit Chance or Crit Damage.)

    Hey 0Graxx0​ and s324v3n7i1rz​, appreciate the reports. We've a bug report open for this already, so I've merged your post into it to help keep info on this together. 

    The latest status update in this bug report thread connects to this update where CG_Meathead shares this:

    The team is aware of an infinite loop happening between an interaction between Great Mothers w/ Nightsister(s) and the "Weather the storm" data disc being applied. 

    We have this slated for fix in a future update.

    Can’t get unpreventable buffs from Wat Tambor as well. Could you please fix it as soon as possible? Conquest isn’t paused.
