It’s just as Violet applies shields to herself and allies, the shields will stay as the skill states, and Violet’s death won’t make them disappear. Same for her Merida disk, it works for whole battle because it works on allies shields as well.
For Fear and Joy there isn’t any duration of buff, but it can be removed by removing their stacks.
If Fear is so big problem, upgrade Tron, Chef and Hamm.
That’s because the shields belong to other allies…
Crit reduction and reality buffs as well.
Now that´s just cynic.
And this indeed. The passive buffs on allies (from Fear or Joy) are dependent on the stacks of a dead character. It´s technically the same situation as Jack Sparrow, Nick Wilde, Launchpad and others, but can be regulated with few characters. Can´t be regulated after death, so basically death of the character with high amount of stacks on during the death favours defender tremendously.
How? 
That’s how the game works, you can’t evade it.
It’s just like saying Timon countering Mulan is an absurd, or hardy stacks against disables.
Tron and Hamm can´t delete buffs of dead characters. AGAIN.
But Hamm can deal true damage… that’s Musk’s point…
Yes, after the bug fix he will pass through. Before it, Hamm will still end up on a skeleton being dealt no damage to.
True damage can’t crit, so…
Fatigue doesn’t block emotions’ stacks.
But either way Fear won’t be as big of an issue now I guess since he can no longer reduce damage by 100%.
You need to read how TRUE damage works, it literally never crits.
Who said something about fatigue…
Bunsen disk.
You don´t need to teach me about how true damage works. The thing is Fear almost seemed to reduce even non-crits.
That´s why I said what I said.
Everyone is going to have Chef (Bu) 
Even then, you need Chef and Tron together to get rid of Fear´s dread stacks completely. No one will go to such heights.
My stance is the same, stacks of anything should be reduced to 0 with the dead of a character. Period.
The patch notes say that will be fixed though. So in fact Hamm would work. Also again Fear probably won’t be a huge issue anymore.
I’m afraid if emotions lost stacks after dying, Joy would be useless as she doesn’t get her own reality
You know he’s scared all of the time, right?
She just should. Some characters count themselves as allies and some not. WTH?
With higher number of Dread his armor was really high, there wasn’t any bug.
Others received (non-crit) normal damage as they should, or I was lucky and “bug” didn’t visited me.
Well, just as 90% have now maxed Mulan, Cheshire, and before Randall and Moana…
There’s still Tron.
You know I don´t use just fantastic damage all the time, right?
Buff removal will never work well with Fear.
But eh I can deal with dealing 10% damage, I’m just happy they won’t block all anymore
