Death with an auto revive not properly stopping actions and Debuffs bug

So when a character with self revive dies and comes back in the same turn, it allows actions to continue and debuffs to reapply.
Examples: Leia's attacking Boba Fett will continue with bonus attacks after his revive if her first attack kills him.
Darth Vader's permanent DoTs will reapply at the end of the turn if a character self revives, but not if they are revived through other means.
However these effects would not persist or continue if the character was revived in a later turn through some other fashion, so they basically don't deal with death consistently.
I would like to think the appropriate solution would be to make death prevent all persistent, ongoing, and end of turn effects from reapplying.
Thanks

It seems like death should dispel them though nothing else can.
That's what I was thinking too. I think we should also ask what happens when Daka, EE, or Jyn revive someone who had DOT on them. I'm pretty sure they don't come back.
If I revive them with Jawa Engineer, the DoTs don't reappear.
Right, that's what I thought. I'd post in the bugs section.
@RJ__Brando would you mind moving this to the Bugs section, please sir? Thx!

Actually, when pathfinder first came out, there was a bug where if he died with healing immunity, he would only revive with a tiny bit of health. They fixed that one pretty quickly, but seems like part of the same issue.
Whenver a dot expires on someone it is reapplied at the end of the current turn, if the target is death reapplying doesn't do anything.
With characters like boba and hk, the turns goes like this: toon is hit, toons die and loses debuffs, toons is revived, turns end.
DoTs from Zader getting refreshed on self revive has been flagged as a bug for further review, but our team was unable to reproduce the issue with Leia multi attacking after self revive.
Really? I've haf Leia bonus attack Leia after revive at least twice.
The key for the setup is Leia first attack must kill Boba and have the bonus attack(s) trigger. Same with Dooku.
Or
Have him double attack a counter attacker with his basic and the first counter kill him.
yes. just used first attack as example. If the first or second attack kills him and he revies the second and or third attack will hit him after revive.
My IG-88 started his turn and the DoTs dropped off. He attacked Vader, which killed Vader, and then the turn ended and the DoTs reappeared.
So Vader's DoTs are bugged in regards to considering both his death during the turn, and the character who has the DoTs dying. Either one dying should prevent the DoTs reapplying, but neither one dying does.
@CG_Kozispoon any chance on getting this part of the bug checked out too? I feel like it is more likely to be fixed faster if it is realized that the scope of the bug is broader than initially thought.
