Doesn't seem to be blocking Jean Grey's Psychic Feedback but blocks other passive AOE like 3* Hulk's Anger.

    Perhaps the stun counts before the AoE, so her passive is disabled?

    Isn't damage meant to be applied before stuns though?

    "Meant to be" isn't always clear, and the order of operations in this game can sometimes be pretty arcane. As far as her power description, if taken literally, it's in this order: reduces AP, stuns, and deals damage. So if that is read as an order of operations, it would seem to be working correctly.

    You can contrast her blue with Doc Ock's green, where the effects are listed in a different order. Are these meant to be read that closely and literally? Probably not, but I can't help myself.

    It's likely that an ability can't resolve partway, in that its either the entire ability itself resolves completely, or not at all. So it would only matter which abilities fire off first.

    This is a weird issue. With JG, her stun happens before the damage. With SW, her stun happens after. It's basically a per-character issue.
