So I was playing experimenting with Carth lead with Revan and Juhani and my g11 5/6 5 star Juhani ended up doing 1 DMG on direct focus
Huh?
Did it several times and about 40% of direct focus by Revan resulted in Juhani doing 1 DMG against level 77 droids
This time I captured a video with a forced ally (chose lobot since he was the weakest) and Juhani does 4 DMG with defense down (see end of vid)
What is this 😂😂😂

I imagine it's meant to synergize with toons like z, they swap the taunt while she regens
I fully believe it's happening because the damage reductions stack. In and of itself, the devs might say WAI, but according to mechanics, both are supposed to expire on "perform move" and in your video I saw an instance of Juhani going twice where it didn't stack. So there's some weird order of operations thing going on where it's stacking the assists, which may be a bug. Couldn't hurt to file a bug report.
On a crit.
I thought the assist from Carth's leader ability only activates when an OR ally uses their basic, so it should only be -50% damage. Revan uses his basic when using Direct Focus, but I don't think that would activate the assist from Carth's lead. I've used Revan as an ally in a LS battle with Carth as the leader, and I never got three attacks when I used Strategic Advantage.
Even if Direct Focus does activate Carth's lead, the second attack from Juhani should be the one that has the -100% damage reduction, but her first attack did only 4. Revan also did damage, which means the target wasn't dead after Juhani attacked.
In the video, there is at least one instance where Juhani goes on marked, then Revan goes, then Juhani goes again. When Revan uses Direct Focus, it doesn't do damage. He calls himself to assist, which is using his basic. His turn is not yet over, so it meets all the conditions to activate the assist from Carth.
Her first attack still shouldn't have -100% damage, though, since that attack is from Direct Focus. I could understand her second attack doing that little damage, but it doesn't really make sense on her first hit.
I agree with that. Each -50% is supposed to expire after the move. Which is why if it's stacking there is a bug.
She's a tank that designed to work with another tank.
A small correction. I don't think revan calls himself to assist, because he doesn't get damage from traya
I think this is correct because Revan will still attack even when he's dazed, whereas if Ezra is dazed, he won't call himself to assist when he uses his second special.
Calling himself to assist or not wouldn't affect that. It's still his turn either way so he wouldn't take damage.
I guess I'd like to see this happening. Looking through mechanics, it seems clear that he's only attacking because of the all-Jedi assist. In OP's video, it says "bonus attack" above Revan every single time he uses Direct Focus.
