Question

53 – If the forced response of Sentinel Mark VIII gets the Energy Barrier attachment, would that minion be given a tough status card? What about if Zola’s Mutate gets Energy Barrier? What happens if the when revealed ability of Zola’s Mutate gets Flamethrower? I’m not sure if Flamethrower would search for another minion always, or sometimes, or never.

Answer

No to all; when an ability attaches an attachment card to a target, the card’s “attach to” text is ignored. Energy Barrier would not give a tough status card to the minion, nor would Flamethrower search for a new minion if attached to the Mutate in that way.
