First picture... marching orders was granted to Kylo, who now has offense up and advantage. Second picture... Kylo used outrage, and the advantage buff is now gone, nor did it come back for his next turn. I tested this granting marching orders to other First Order toons, and it does the same thing — they’re only getting advantage for one turn instead of two.

Hi @DarthSerafin and thank you for the report.

Advantage is consumed/expires as soon as the character scores a critical hit (which is guaranteed if he has advantage).

We've tested this today and if you apply "Marching Orders" to Kylo Ren and then use "Lash Out" which can't critically hit, advantage will stay on him for another turn, otherwise, it expires correctly upon a critical hit.

Interesting. I assumed the character being granted Marching Orders would be able to critically hit for two turns. This is how most buffs/debuffs work. They stay on the character for a set amount of turns. I don't know. The advantage mechanic and advantage-granting abilities are perhaps a little misleading in that sense. Nevertheless, thank you for the quick response.

@EA_HighCommand can you show me more details on why advantage expires when the ability says advantage for 2 turns. Why would someone want to use Lash out with Advantage? defeats the purpose of the buff. This is a broken mechanic. Who ever FOO targets with marching orders should have advantage reapplied for the second turn per the ability description

 Advantage grants kylo 25% more turn meter from lash out if he has it....
