Daredevil vs Guillotine 2099

So I'm working on Guillotine 2099, and figured I'd try Daredevil (classic) to try to help vs her cloak ..

I had already seen this video ...

https://youtu.be/IOr1d0f0sbA?t=307

which I was aware of the "warning" .. however, seems I got an actual 0% chance to connect when I played ...

With Daredevil able to bypass all other "invisible", why is guillotine 2099 so different ?
(or is this a bug, as the video suggests ??)

Is Digi-Cloak the same as Invisibility?

That's the thing I'm hoping Kabam will clarify ... but for now, it seems that it's either:

a) no, it's not invisibility - and more like phasing ..
or
b) yeah, but it's bugged ..

LOL

But even if it was like phasing, attacks that shouldn’t miss, like Torch’s and Nick Fury’s shouldn’t miss. Since they are it makes me believe one of three things:

1. Digi-cloak is similar to the invisibility mechanic and therefore the interactions between DD, Torch, and Fury are bugged.

2. Digi-cloak is similar to phasing in which case the interaction with DD is correct, but the interaction with Torch and Fury are bugged.

3. Digi-cloak is an entirely new mechanic that hasn’t been explained yet and therefore all interactions are working as intended.

I expect when they do Guillotine 2099’s champion spotlight it will shed some light on this, but until then it seems we are in the dark.

I think it's a separate Ability that works the same as Miss. "Cannot Miss.", e.g.
Not 100%. Perhaps a Mod can clarify.

Would love some clarifications by Kabam on this .. *sigh*

After doing another run I discovered something new. I decided to take Stealthy just for fun and see what would happen. Interestingly enough he did work. Stealthy has the ability to make misses fail if the opponent is under the effect of his web foam debuff. This makes me think that maybe my original testing of Torch may not have been completely accurate. With the Stealthy run I did explore her quest so I will not be running it until I start master and I will test again with a lower ranked Torch. But if anyone else can test Torch and report back, that would be useful.

@RoninMan HT needs a temperature above 10 for his anti-miss mechanic to function, was he above 10 for your test? (I did not see this parameter mentioned in your post about him.)

Yes, you are right and I know I kept it up at the start of the fight but once I got some incinerates going I might’ve lost focus on it. That’s why I am thinking it was inaccurate because I’m assuming it dropped before she cloaked herself. That’s why I’m hoping someone else can properly test where I failed.

Fantastic thank you.

When is her champion spotlight coming out ?
Hoping it's clarified in there at least ... although it would be nice to get clarity on this PRIOR to the end of the event, so we can understand what's supposed to happen ..

One, because is not listed as an ability. So in theory, no ability (currently) allows Daredevil to bypass invisibility.
And also, Guillotine 2099 doesn't trigger invisibility.

well, they finally got around to clarifying that it is - indeed - intended .. so glad they did .and hoping they iron things out in future so it's easier to know when it does and when it doesn't
