Ruling · 900.3
Armor setup from an adjacent ally's Tool
This rule is part of the Comprehensive Rules, where every cross-reference resolves in one page.
- Question
- Does a Tool's Cacaphony (Armor) or Sunder prepare the activating ally's hit?
- Answer
- Yes, when the Tool effect triggers immediately on that ally's activation.
- 900.3aTools with immediate activation armor setup resolve ahead of other Tools. Their armor-setup packages and effects resolve first within that Tool.
- 900.3bThe activating unit's own armor setup also resolves before the queued immediate Tool damage. Those Tool hits then resolve before the unit's remaining effects and base hit.
- 900.3cOvermatch retains its shared stat comparison. Relentless blocks the reduction; Tools with Durability consume it according to their package's normal rules.
