Weakness: If an enemy model within 3 would deal Severe damage, it deals Moderate damage instead.
People are saying that Nix with this Sweet abilty Drop the Red joker's Damage from Severe+weak to Moderate+weak. now i wish to debate the thought process of why they believe this.
here is the damage chart of what things do. now in the book its a chart. i cant make a chart my skills are poor.
Black joker No Damage
1 to 5 Weak
6 to 10 Moderate
11 to 13 Severe
Red Joker Severe + Weak
Now if i flip a 11-13 against Nix my Severe damage i would deal is reduced to moderate. seems pretty straight forward.
Now if i flip the Red joker i do Severe+Weak. which Clearly by itself is not Severe any more but a sum of 2 different Damage profiles.
now some things about the red joker and how it affects things since it is a Unique card and only one of in the deck
When a Red Joker is flipped it may always be chosen (except when a Black Joker is also present) regardless of any to the Damage flip. The Red Joker always deals an amount of damage equal to the Severe plus the Weak damage. Damage that is staged down (such as extra models hit by blast damage) becomes Moderate.
Now to further extrapolate on the red joker
As well,the Red Joker's damage is stepped down to Moderate (not Severe) damage.
Now why would the Rulebook the object where we take guidance from tell us this line if the Red joker was not in its own separate category.
But wait godly how do you do blasts if you not really doing severe damage. Glad you asked.
the red joker takes the Severe damage Profile of the weapon and adds it to the Weak damage profile.
That means if the Severe damage had blasts in its profile then so does the red joker. so a 2/3 :blast /5 :blast would deal 7 :blast
if it flipped the red joker. then since the Rulebook tells us to Stage down to moderate not severe and ignore any blasts from that profile the secondary targets would take 3damage each
So in Closing Severe damage is not Severe+Weak. to further clarify Severe =/= Severe+Weak.
