Sorry if this was posted before but I’m new to the forum.
Wraith’s power on her character card prevents the next two damage dealt to her. If she takes no damage and it is her turn again and she uses that same power does her preventable damage go to the total of 4? Or does it restart at the beginning of her turn?
Thanks!
Wraith’s Stealth power stacks with itself. If you don’t take any damage, the damage prevention number keeps increasing until she takes damage, at which point it resets to 0.
If you look at the sticky thread in this forum, (SotM Errata/Clarifications Collected) it has a pdf that answers questions like this. (:
Thanks for your help! So if she is able to prevent 4 damage and takes 3 that reduces the preventable damage to 1? If so when she uses her power next turn does she go up to 3 or does it reset because she took damage regardless of how much?
It resets to 0, there is no ‘left over’ prevention, Wraith is an all or nothing kind of hero!
Thanks! She is an awesome hero!
To clarify, her power is worded wrong. It says “prevent the next 2 damage she would take,” when it SHOULD say “The next time wraith takes damage, prevent 2 of it.”
This way it’s clear that it only happens the next time she takes damage.
It’s also important to note that since it says prevent – not reduce – it DOES prevent irreducible damage. When Plague Rat, for instance, does his attack and is buffed to 3 damage, it only deals Wraith 1 damage, even though it’s 3 irreducible.
It’s also worth noting that her power is cumulative and if you have activated it multiple times she prevents that amount and then goes away regardless off how much is left (i.e. Wraith has activated her Stealth 3 times for a total damage prevention of 6 and later she receives 5 damage, all of it would be prevented and her Stealth would be reduced to 0).
yeah, that too. repeated uses don’t make you block more hits, they just make the hit you block get “reduced” more.
