Question
I continue my previous question about dealt/taken excess damage: If the hero Hercules attacks Thumbelina (3HP, reduce damage taken by 1). He triggers his Golden Mace to get a bonus of +3ATK and overkill. Sequence: – damage dealt by Hercules 6 – excess damage dealt by Hercules: 6 – 3 = 3 – damage taken by Thumbelina 6 – 1 = 5 – excess damage taken by Thumbelina: 5 – 3 = 2 – overkill deals 2 damage to the villain (excess damage taken value) – Thumbelina is defeated – Hercules triggers Prince of Power to heal for 3 (excess damage dealt value) ??? Is that sequence valid?
Answer
Yes, that all looks correct. Hercules with Golden Mace attacks with 6 ATK and overkill; Thumbelina “takes” 5 of that damage; since she has 3 HP, 2 of that “taken” damage is dealt as overkill damage to the villain; and Hercules having “dealt” 3 excess damage can heal 3 with Prince of Power.
