Characters can resist Turn Meter Reduction now?

tRRRey

So I was doing the tank challenge with Teebo lead, Han, Chewie, RG, JKG and when Teebo used his basic attack in stealth Mace would "RESIST" it and not lose turn meter. The same thing happened when it was Han's turn and a "RESIST" might pop up next to Mace meaning Han's unique procced but had no effect on him.

Is anyone else seeing this and can confirm this?

I hope you are wrong. This is a pretty major nerf

They said this was happening ages ago. Maybe it's just now taking effect?

I hope I am too, I'm not sure if I should keep farming Han now. He's very much centered around TM manipulation.

Do you have a link to when it was said? This is the first I'm hearing of it. Thanks.

It was in patch notes at some point

I have seen where their TM gets reduced but immediately jumps right back up where it was

Do you happen to know which patch notes? I feel like if this change was going to happen, there wouldn't be this many people talking about Han who is all about TM manipulation.

Qeltar just posted a link of dev saying that March 17. Nothing more I can do that a search won't do equally well

tRRRey

Interesting that they pushed that change now, thanks @Qeltar

It only affects TM reduction, not addition, so many effects will work as normal.

Tank challenge is gonna be tough, however.

I have seen this a lot too but I always attributed it to their speed meter filling up after the turn that caused the TM reduction has ended.

It also makes Yoda (EDIT "MORE") useful again and also many of the tenacity leaders... that's assuming their leadership works correctly! Which is probably a good thing, been a while since I last saw a luke leader!

Wow - Teebo (and Ewok teams) are seriously nerfed with this 'fix'. Just as I upgraded him yesterday!

Controlling the turn meter was the fun (and only viable) way of winning with an Ewok team.

As others have said, the tank challenge will be much tougher now.

Edit - although just noticed a stealthed Teebo can avoid counter attacks so not all bad...
