MS L2 Dispel on hit bugged vs Medusa with 3 fury stacks

in Bugs and Known Issues
Just had this bug happen in AW versus a Medusa boss. Intercepting a charging Medusa with MS's L2 - dispelled all buffs on first hit of L2, triggered autoblock on 2nd hit, and Medusa avoided taking most of the damage from the rest of the L2 by continuing to block. This is a bug as MS's L2 is supposed to dispel all buffs, thus preventing Medusa's autoblock from triggering for the remainder of the special. This, however, is not the case, and probably has not been caught as it is only an issue if MS has less than 3 souls (at 3 souls or more, her special 2 is unblockable, so even if autoblock triggers, the L2 would still be landing hits.

    In my experience with morningstar, her sp2 does extra damage depending on the number of buffs the opponent has... but its only the last hit that actually nullifies the buffs, not the first, so yes medusa still takes the energy damage on the first hit but autoblocks the other 2, whenever i use morningstar in alliance war attack i always try to ensure i have 3 souls as soon as possible to prevent her sp2 from being autoblocked by medusa or blocked in general! if it nullified buffs on the first hit the other two wouldn't do the large energy damage bonus making the attack alot weaker, so i'd say its fine :)

    Hope this answers your Question?
