Please upgrade Merciless Massacre bonus turn mechanic

Hello all!

Like the rest of the community, I’m pretty stoked about Vader’s rework. It’s a lot of fun, very powerful, and has a lot of interesting versatility right now, which should only expand as Sith and Empire characters are added to the game.

However, the devs made one MAJOR mistake with his Merciless Massacre bonus turn mechanic: it may be interrupted by other character’s bonus turns.

It’s really really difficult to “recreate the Rogue One Vader scene” when Padmé + JKA take bonus turns and obliterate your entire team. Malak can do the same.

Would it be possible to change the Bonus Turn mechanic to be like Yoda’s, where he is granted an IMMEDIATE bonus turn after he attacks an enemy with Merciless?

Pretty please?

    It's pretty hard to recreate the Rogue One Vader scene when Padme, JKA, and Malak weren't there ;)

    And I don’t know how someone’s Malak takes life force without powerful Jedi in tanks, but it happens.

    I figured that the intention of this move is to be a constant strain of attacks, so I’m a vote in favor.
  • I had to slow vader down, and speed up thrawn. Then I can fracture JKA first.

    Omg! You mean figured how to make it work instead of crying that it's broken?! So crazy.

    Anakin was there, not as a jedi knight anymore but he was there.

    😆 You're prob right...but speculation is fun!

    And to the OP: it is kinda sucky that those bonus turns (which I assume happen - I've not personally witnessed them) interfere with what I'm sure is Vader's intent, but for a f2p character, this touch up is pretty awesome anyway!

    I still can't figure out if Vader is terribly unfair to f2p or p2p.
