Best Card?

I would if I knew the names of the cards and their text, but Unfortunately My Friend owns the game. The Simple point is that as long as the damage done to Absolute Zero in a single strike from another Hero is not greater that his HPs he will, on his turn, do that same amount of damage plus any Modifiers which wll almost certainly mean he will do more damage than any other Hero as long as they don’t deal out more than 28 points of damage in a single effect.

It would be nice if there was a text spoiler linked to the Forum.

You’re saying 28 - the other cards mentioned are 72 and 78 damage in a single strike.

Tachyon did three strikes at 24 Damage. You could hit Absolute Zero with 5 strikes at 24 damage. When it is his turn he will inflict 120 damage. The 28 is not a limitation on what damage he will inflict but on the damage he can take at one time. if Absolute Zero took 29 Damage from one strike he dies.

This whole thing relies on the Hero cards not excluding other heroes as targets. Since I do not have access to the cards or played those paticular characters I can not say for certain that they would be able to target AZ.

It is really long and convoluted interaction of cards, But if all the other heros targeted AZ with thier attacks he could get off something in the several hundreds of damage in a single turn if not close to 1000.

Ah, I see what you mean. A target is anything with hit points, so you can target other heroes if you see the need to. The only thing that prevents what you’re saying from working is that if you’re using Imbued Fire, it converts ALL damage to fire damage, including the damage Absolute Zero deals to himself. As such, he can’t deal himself cold damage, so he can’t heal. If you manage to do fire damage to him outside of Imbued Fire, he can heal that back, but there’s no way to match that level of damage output with him.

I was so Close. I still think there is a way with Ra and AZ, If Ra can do more, but not over the 28 limitation per strike, than Tachyon. Then AZ can do more than Ra if Ra were to inflict the damage on AZ instead of the Villian.

That’s how I typically play with Ra and Absolute Zero together, especially if I have both Isothermic Transducer and Coolant Blast both in play, as without any damage modifiers, this multiplies the damage two fold.

And, yes, Chris, that answers my question.

Hedge, I don’t believe that it would work out, as any sort of damage boosting will probably just kill Absolute Zero before he can turn it around to cold damage, BUT . . . I greatly look forward to being proven wrong. So, show us your skills! Put these techniques together and prove me wrong! I might even start keeping an official list of People Who Have Proven Christopher Wrong On The Forums.
