    Did we get a ruling yet on whether Oblivion was Burst 1 or 2? My PDF lists it as both.

    I'd like to know about this too. Both the spanish and english PDF list this program as a B1 weapon on the reference table, but B2 on its ruling. The army also shows it as B1. Is it a typo or is it really B1?

    Given the description in the rules (it clearly states B2), you should consider the table a typo UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

    Should we then report it as an Army 7 bug? Because it shows there too. I don't know if it's already been reported.

    @HellLois this one could use an answer before I have to make my own ruling on the weekend for a tournament, which given my luck will be wrong.

    until there is a ruling, I would use the harmless error approach. In this case, R1

    This one really needs an answer, I don’t get the radio silence on it. My gut says B1, just because B3 Mary Problems would be “fun”. I guess it would make her an “Uberhacker” though.

    I feel like the fact the rules list it as multiple rolls means the chart is incorrect. applicable portions bolded. It is a lot of rules that make no sense if the chart was intended to be correct. I would be running this as 2 burst.

    OBLIVION SHORT SKILL / ARO
    Comms Attack, Non-Lethal.

    REQUIREMENTS
    ► The target must be an enemy with the Hackable Characteristic (HI, TAG, REM...) or an enemy Hacker.

    EFFECTS
    ► In the Active Turn, this Program’s Burst of 2 allows the user to perform two WIP Rolls, which can be distributed among one or more targets as usual.
    Each successful Roll, due to AP Ammunition, forces the target to make Saving Roll against their halved BTS, with Damage 16.
    Any failed Saving Roll will cause the target to enter Isolated State, placing an Isolated State Token (ISOLATED) by them.
    ► A Critical with Oblivion forces its target to perform an additional Saving Roll, applying their halved BTS value.
    ► The range of this Program is the Hacker’s Hacking Area

    my guess is B1 to further differentiate it from carbonite.

    Even with B2, I still wouldn't take the Skiavoros Hacker profile...

    Maybe I split the difference and we simulate B1.5 by every alternating Oblivion between 1 and 2 burst every use.

    In my Army 7 (mobile) Oblivion is correct: burst 2.
    However,no matter what hacker device I choose I see every program available,they are not filtered. (I tried this bug with PanO vanilla and Hexa hackers)
