Hi Hellaspooks,
I have a rules question about an interaction between two PI-OF abilities in Castor and Pollux:
- Rosemary’s Demolition Primer makes its attack damage irreducible against qualifying targets.
- Slow-Cycle Shield Canopy prevents incoming damage from ignoring the target’s Armor while its granted Overshield remains.
If a Rosemary attacks a Prone target that still has the Canopy’s Overshield, which effect takes precedence? Does Demolition Primer bypass the target’s Armor, or does the Canopy preserve Armor’s damage reduction?
For example, if the attack deals 10 damage and the target has 3 Armor and 4 Overshield from the Canopy, would the final result be:
- 6 HP lost, with Armor bypassed; or
- 3 HP lost, with Armor reducing the damage first?
Thanks for your help, and for creating the supplement!
