17 – Hi, I’m wondering about a subtle timing point. So, I know that there is some point in time where an enemy has taken damage and is not defeated, this is necessary for Biomechanical Upgrades to work (it is an interrupt to a minion’s defeat that heals all damage from it). Does this mean that a response to taking damage also happens before defeat? For a particular example the Sandman minion from Iron Spider’s Sinister Six triggers after he takes any amount of damage. Does he trigger when he takes lethal damage?
