EMP drain equipment in stasis?

Is it intended that your equipment can be drained of power via EMP while in stasis?  It doesn't damage you.

EDIT:  also, expose weakness can be applied to a stasis'd target

Mechanically, it just makes you immune to damage, so anything that does not require damage will still work on stasis-ed character. Maybe it's unintuitive, but time manipulation is funky like that, so I'll allow it.

When it comes to Stasis, I can't help but think that if you use it in a battle on yourself, by he time it wears off you should wake up to a gun barrel at your face point blank, or a knife at your throat. Or some Lunatic can draw a penis on your forehead with a marker pen and you'll never know it.

Stasis - not even once

Actually stasis is really powerful ability. You get two turns immune to all damage, and even better it ends after everybody else takes their turn. So unlike last stand it actually has a use, this allows you to effectively hold off a choke point for an extra two turns, or take two turns worth of sniper shots. Also cooldowns still progress during those two turns.

Okay, what about siphoners draining your blood, not dealing any damage to you, but getting health from it?

Isn't that just a bug with Siphoners?  No matter what prevents their damage, be it shields or armor, they still heal up when siphoning.

or at least they did last time I checked, which has admittedly been a while
