Nihilus Goes Before he should

Nikoms565

I've been trying to battle a Nihilus team in arena, just to see if he was worth gearing up. His Nihilus is speed 207, his Sid is 226. My EP is 217. We are both running a Zeta Maul lead. His Sid goes first and lays down AoE (fine) but then his Nihilus goes right after. Shouldn't my EP go between the two? Am I missing something?

I've run the same exact battle 3 times and each time that's the turn order. Again, it's possible I'm missing something.

Maybe he had Sith Assasin? She gives tm boost to all sith allies.

No - other than Sid & Nihilus and Zaul lead, he was running Vader and EP as well.

Screenshots of everyone's stats?

I had something similar happen yesterday. Both of us running zMaul. His EP was 207, mine was 213. Turn order was my Sid, then his EP before mine. Maybe not a Nihilus problem, but a zMaul problem?

The only reason I think it's related to Nihilus is that this is the first time I've noticed this issue - and it was also the first time I've faced Nihilus team.

The stats I reported above are off by a little but the order would be the same it's 237 for his Sid, 217 for my EP and 206 for his Nihilus. Again, Nihilus force drained before my EP went - my EP's AoE was on cooldown of 1 when he took his turn.

Am I missing something? Is there a TM reduction involving Nihilus or Sid's Omega?

Were there any attacks before these, as Zaul gives toons 20% TM gain on dodge, but if it's that toons turn to go, they pop into / out of stealth immediately.

At first, I thought it was related to that - but he was the only one who attacked (Sid) - so the only characters that could have received the evasion TM buff were mine. But it's that kind of thing I'm wondering if it is working correctly.

What were the full lineups? Zaul DN Sid <> and you had Zaul EP <>

Nikoms565

Him: Zaul, DN, Sid, EP & Vader
Me: Zaul, EP, Vader, Shore & B2

Honestly, I haven't fought him since then, as I can't beat his 7* Nihilus anyway (especially when he goes right after Sid )

Nikoms565

Lol - nevermind. I think I just figured out what happened. He probably opened with Sid, then my B2 probably went - Nihilus must have evaded granting him 20% TM. Please close this thread.
