Now that you mention it I just fought a guy with 5s, Dooku, Lumi, Mace, and Sid and they all hit Barriss on there turn and the rest of my team only took damage from 5s and Dooku, with a little coming from Sid's AOE.
Daka gets slammed. I think 20 attacks or so on her in a row on my last GW. Luckily she also gets called to assist a lot which means a good amount of stuns

Yup bariss always gets attack and always ones in on assist.
Don't say it because she's a healer as I run lumi as well and bariss still received 80% of the attacks
Although Lumi has great healing capabilities (better than Jedi Consular by far) she is actually classified as an "Attacker" instead of "Healer".
Lumi cannot enter those "Healer and Support-only" Challenges but the "Attackers-only" STR Gear Challenge instead, and if you click her Character, She is classified as "Jedi, Attacker", while Barriss is classified "Jedi, Healer".
Some games have that set in the AI to focus on the Healers first.
Healers and low HP toons seem to be the first targets. JC might as well have a red 'hit me' flag on his forehead. I don't even use him in the GW anymore since he usually doesn't last more than a couple battles.
They should give Barris' invisible taunt to Old Ben
This happened to me yesterday. I autoed my final arena battle and noticed that my toons were all going straight for OB o.O. I've never seen the AI focus him like that before.
Nothing invisible about it.
They told us they made improvements to AI.
Target selection is now more impactful. Toons get focused on. Stuns are timed well.
Healers and low health take priority now.
To fix this, put JC on the team. He has the strongest invisible taunt; it will override the Bariss taunt.
This x1000. I dont use JC much anymore, but man... when I put him on my GW team you could expect him to be dead by node 3 because the AI attacks him 99.99% of the time.

Yup
I have noticed this as well
Agreed. If I don't have Bariss and have Yoda, it's usually Yoda. If I have both, it's usually Bariss.

Lumi isn't technically a healer

Confirmation bias at its best LOL.

Should update HA description to say "Call Bariss to assist"
