Fives’s Zeta works in P4...

So, apparently Fives’s zeta wasn’t nerfed with the STH patch. Not sure who/which dev to ping for this, but I’d like to know if that was intentional or another bug. Personal thought is that the devs might have forgot about Fives when patching stuff.

I have a guildmate with a zeta ready to go and a full team of clones to use it in. Want to make sure this won’t get nerfed after he uses it, and wastes the zeta as a result.
Better to post it early and get it nerfed than after people have invested their hard earned Zetas.
Thanks for the note! We've filed a bug on it and will be investigating it soon. At first blush, this looks like something we are going to update to bring in line with the intended behaviors detailed here:

That said, I'm waiting for someone on the team to review and then we'll move from there. Thanks again!
Well...it probably wouldn't have been nerfed if you hadn't mentioned it!
I know this rather proletariat of me, but I kinda like it when players "outsmart" (ie using in-game mechanics perfectly) the devs, by discovering something awesome like this.
Personally, I don't think it should be nerfed.
A. This is the result of a zeta ability, which a SIGNIFICANT investment, in line with the Game Philosophy, and
B. It's not that huge of a boost (only a couple million damage). You can't do major chunks of a phase with it. This really only helps guild who have the HSith Raid on farm anyway.
The devs can see what happens in the game based off the numbers that come back...or that’s my understanding of how it works. I figured it was only a matter of time before one of them noticed anyways. Also, it could become a loop that could completely deal with Traya in P4 if Fives’s Potency rose above 85% and he was able to stick speed down on his first hit.
Brother, nerfing 5z now?! Seriously? Y’all knew about his ability in this raid when y’all did the other nerf (folks brought it up countless times on the forum, all over Discord, etc etc), and now folks have put a zeta on him specifically for this. How can we build trust when y’all do these type of things over and over?
Do you honestly believe this forum post (or any forum post for that matter) has any effect on whether it gets nerfed or not?
So if it gets nerfed, when should people who Zeta'd Fives AFTER the first nerf of characters, expect their zeta refund?
Never, they are not changing his zeta and his zeta wasnt made for raid only. You could have expected that they might "fix" it since they "fixed" othere abilities like that.
According to this nerf no, because no on damage abilities are present
Sorry to disappoint you but this is not how things work around here, I'll prove it to you IF they end up doing something about it.
As if any of you thought this wouldn't be nerfed and you zeta'd fives anyway. Lol.
why
wow... this just sums up where swgoh has been going the last few months and where it is going right now...
Never. They don't nerf things anymore, they classify them as bugs, which legally allows them to refute any refund requests.
What surprises me is CG_TopHat's reply that kinda does make it seem like this is the first they have heard of it.
lmao, whut?
If they nerf it.
Exactly. Which is why I ever discover an amazing strategy (NOT bug exploitation), I'm keeping it to myself.
haha, that will teach 'm !
They won't even have to nerf it because just 1 player is abusing it !
