In the attached video Padme is hit below 50% health, triggering Anakin’s zeta unique. As you can see both Padme and Anakin have 100% TM for their bonus turns. 

I purposefully hit Malak to show what happens. If Anakin  happens to hit Malak to a health threshold, Malak immediately takes his bonus turn, ignoring Padme’s already loaded bonus turn. 

I feel like this is a bug, since Padme’s turn is already loaded before Malak’s unique is triggered. Also Anakin’s ability reads that Padme will take her turn after Anakin. 

I havent had a chance to test it, but I am sure this bonus turn conflict would also happen if Anakin would take out a droid/Separatist on a General Grevious team.

Hi @shawsay and thank you for the report.

Unfortunately, I don't see a video attached (potentially too big?). Could you upload the video to Youtube (for example) and provide us with the link? That'd be great!

Turn jumping has been a problem for a long time. 

Game doesn't care who gets to 100% TM first

Or in this case gets bonus turn loaded first

With multiple characters at the ready to take a turn phase rng decides who goes next

In this case multiple characters have bonus turn ready rng decides

True, its still a coin toss when people get 100% tm. But malak goes EVERY time. I have a guild mate having the same problems running padme against malak. There is no coin flip if 0/20 times padme gets to take her bonus turn before malak

Interesting. Maybe they can make it like Thrawn TM swap where his target takes the next turn, padme will take the next turn

Im having this same issue. Now, I know people will say “oh since they both get bonus turns, its up to RNG.” Now, normally that would suffice, however, Anakins zeta specifies Padmes bonus turn to be “after Anakins bonus turns”. Therefore, the text is clear she should go after anakin. Malak should be after her. If it wasnt meant for her to come after Anakin, why put it in the text?

The text specifies Padme’s turn to come after Anakins. RNG shouldnt matter.

It says "after," but not "immediately after," if you're going to argue semantics. Furthermore, Malak can be said to reach his bonus turn health threshold before the end of Anakin's turn, so in that sense Padme would still be queued after.

That being said, I don't know what the actual intent is, but I don't think you have evidence against the 100% tie mechanics based on the ability text.

Why even put ‘after’ at all then? Why not just put bonus turn? This also still doesnt explain Malak taking his bonus turn 100% of the time before Padme.
