Hey guys.

Omega Leader's ability is that if he target locks that ship cannot modify any dice when attacking or defending against Omega Leader. But there are some pilots, such as Poe Dameron, have abilities which do modify the results. When this happens which ability applies?

Can't always trumps can.

EPT upgrade: masterful move

You are always allowed to modify dice and spend tokens even when other cards or rules disallow tokens or dice modifications.

Just to be clear, this is an actual rule. Check out the Rules Reference on page 2, under the heading "Golden Rules":

If a card ability or mission effect uses the word “cannot,” that effect is absolute and cannot be overridden by other effects.

When Omega Leader's ability conflicts with Poe's, OL's "cannot modify" wins.

Correct, other instances of this are Damaged Engine Crit vs R2/Unhinged Astromech,

I suppose I should have specified that yeah, otherwise it does sound like a vague self-determined rule.

Thank's for the clarification guys and dolls. We flipped a coin when this came up and Poe got the advantage. But now I shall have my revenge on him.

Just to be clear, this EPT wouldn't work under the golden rule above... can't trumps can.

The rule of "cannot" comes into play in any instance like this. Poe says he may modify and Omega Leader says he cannot, so therefore Poe cannot use his ability, or any other form of dice modification he might have available (focus, target lock, etc). If you can remember the "cannot" rule, it will alleviate a lot of card conflicts rather quickly.
