Side question to the Nest Bonus protection

Kerrigan

With the revelation that bonus protection is/was calculated based on max health at the start of battle rather than current max health, can we get a confirmation that Palpatine's leadership is healing max health based on current or start of battle max health? I have noticed several times in my nightmare team (Palp (L), Vader, Sion, Nihilus, Thrawn) that in mirror match-ups Nihilus doesn't seem to recover much hp when he applies his dot to an enemy at the start of his turn.
Is it possible that this bug is affecting this situation? Nihilus does gain tremendous amounts of max health when Sion is debuffed, and in a mirror match-up nightmare battle, sion gets a LOT of debuffs. Thus if this bug is prevalent throughout other areas, it is entirely possible that Nihilus is not healing the way he should under Palpatine's lead.

It's not a bug until a whale complains.

I'll even go with: "it's not a bug until the devs declare it a bug, until then it's a feature." But since this issue was just now declared a bug, it may be time to check other areas for the same sort of bug.

I suspect the same thing happens with Old Daka's zeta, every revive she only gets 10% of her initial max health rather than 10% of her current max health.

Fortunately, this is not about Nest, this is about Palpatine

I think I’m not understanding this all clearly. Is the bug adjusting it from Nest’s beginning max health to current max health or beginning health to current health?

Just stick to recent discussions and you’ll never have a problem 🤷🏻‍♂️

Yup and no mention of why

Except they aren't.

See above

That's a subforum. So what?

They are moving posts to here:

Not deleting them.

I think they answered the question pretty clearly: "While this will impact Nest vs Revan match-ups the most significantly, any characters that can change Max Health will also be affected." It's a correction to all situations where Max Health is altered during the battle.

Right. So the question is are they actually making the change on everyone else? I’m extremely interested in the potential buff to my Nightsister squad.

Kerrigan

Technically, they only answered the question with regard to bonus protection being calculated based on max health, not other interactions wtih max health. It's entirely possible that other interactions with max health could be affected by this bug, but haven't been changed. Expose, Daka's Zeta, Palp's Lead, and many other interactions are all potentially affected by this bug since they are all based on max health... The question is max health when?

While we’re at it take a look at thermal detonators. They should be doing a lot more damage to characters whose max health is increasing throughout a match

Let's stay on topic please.

Some posts were removed for going off topic.

FYI - especially around big releases topics are merged and possible moved, but never deleted (unless they violate the Forum Guidelines) . In the last case the person is informed of the situation.

The Nest thing is relevant because Revan causes her max health to reduce. In all the other situation mentioned the character's max health is not altered at all during the fight.

You are kidding right? Nihilus's unique literally says it increases max health when Sion gets a debuff. If Palpatine's lead is healing based on max health at the start of the fight, then Nihilus won't actually be healing 20% of his current max health, he'll be healing 20% of a much much much lower max health... his initial max health.

My bad, I was thinking of max health being reduced, not raised.

Op this is easy check.
use the team record video
compare heal at the begging to a heal after he should have gained some max health
