8.4.3 Suppressing Fire Interaction Query

in General Discussion
Just working my way through 8.4, and I've come to the Suppressing Fire path. Outside of Bishop I don't have any incinerate options to bring in, but thought I'd trial AA given he's listed as immune to ability accuracy reduction in his kit.

However, when I start the first fight, AA has a concussion applied straight away, and parry is failing repeatedly. Is this a classic case of AAs description being outdated, or my being particularly slow, or is this an error?

    Archangel is only immune to AAR inflicted by champs. If the node inflicts concussion, Archangel will be affected by it.

    If you have Doom, his sp2 & sp3 can get you the incinerate. Not ideal bit my 6* took a few of the fights

    Coming back to this path as it's my last one. Even more confusingly, Longshot who's wording is very similar CAN parry as usual on this path. I really think AAs description needs to be updated, or be updated himself to reflect what the heck he can and can't do

    No @vertiGo
    Archangel is immune to AAR by opponent's abilities. His opponents cannot apply concussion but nodes can apply concussions.

    Longshot has 300% ability accuracy and only debuffs can reduce his ability accuracy. Even after the concussion, longshot have 200% ability accuracy so that's why he's able to parry

    The node states "The defender reduces the attackers defensive ability accuracy..." sure sounds like it's a defenders ability that's doing the reduction?

    If the concussion is displayed on defenders info page - archangel is immune
    If the concussion is displayed on node - archangel is not immune.
