Friendly Fire + Jack Handle = win. :D In the app, it adds another attack at base 2 damage.
Friendly Fire + Crowbar = As long as you're willing to keep hitting Setback, you can also keep hitting other targets.
With 2 Friendly Fires, Mr. Fixer gets a total of 5 attacks out of one use of Jack Handle.
Add a Charge or an Overdrive for another 5 attacks. With Harmony and Grease Monkey Fist, that's 40 damage.
::Throws Temporal Grenade::
Holy crap, how did I miss that combo. Now that Setback is available in the video game, I'm beginning to appreciate the Dark Watch team and how they work together more and more. I just recently discovered the Wrong Place Wrong Time + Oblivion combo.
yup love using jack handle on absolute zero or the scholor to keep them from getting to max health and keep the damage going.
WTAP + Looking Up is nice too. Especially with High Risk Behavior. Start of his turn, he loses 3 tokens to deal someone 3 damage, plus buffs.
I’m not sure that works with high risk behavior. Wouldn’t the buffs be calculated before it figures out how many tokens to remove, meaning that you never have enough tokens to redirect it?
The buffs only "kick in" when Setback deals damage to Villains, not Setback dealing damage to himself so the buffs aren't included in the original 3 psychic damage but are calculated if it's redirect to a Villain target.
Ah. I’m still not very familiar with all Setback’s cards, and was assuming that it was worded like Hunter and Hunted.
The wording is a little clunky, yeah.
As I remember it from playtesting, High Risk Behavior is specifically worded the way it is because if it increased his self-damage, it really wouldn't be worth it most of the time, because he has so much of that.
I think a clearer wording would have been, "damage by Setback to villains, and by villains to Setback." The "to and by... to and by..." is what's confusing. You could read it as including damage to Setback by Setback.
Yeah, I agree. It is what it is, though.
I was playing with Guise and Setback and Fixer and pulled the unlimited damage combo off by accident. Felt great. Also felt cheaty but hey - I didn't do it to scum my way through something - shere coincidence.
