Ok i dont know much about feat cards but im trying to make a spider man team with pounce. I know i can use it on the spiderman i have, but i wanna put it on iron fist. His rookie starts out with 2 damage and he does have leap climb so he meats the prerequistes on his first click, but what about after that?? He gets 3 damage later so can i still put pounce on him even tho he has 3 damage later on his dial? If i can put pounce on him, can i only use it when he only has 2 damage??? Also what is the deal with prerequisites in general? like do u apply them for your first click, your entire dial, or the click your on??? Thanks for the info!

You may only use the feat when the figure meets the prerequisits. Iron Fist may not Pounce when his Damage Value is 3. Also, you may not use Perplex to make a figure meet the prerequisits (i.e. you can't Perplex Iron Fist's Damage Value down to 2).

A figure *must* meet the prerequisits somewher on its dial before you can assign the Feat to that figure before the game begins. For example, Taunt has prerequisit of a Range value greater than 0. So you could not put this on someone like the Atom (who has a Range of 0). Even though Atom does have Perplex, and could theoretically Perplex his Range up to 1, that is only something he could do during the *game*; he doesn't meet the prerequisits before the game begins. Assuming the figure meets the prerequisits somewhere on the dial, it may then use the Feat anytime during the game it meets the prerequisits and Feat description.

bump

First off, bumping is *not* good forum behavior; you can get warning points for doing it. Secondly, why did you bump it? Did you just not like my answer? Or was there something unclear?

ummm sorry, bumping is a habbit from like ALL the other forums i write at.

anyways yes im still a little confused on prerequisites. If atom cant use that one thing because his range is 0 and it is applied b4 the game begins, but iron fist can because he has 2 on his dial at some point, how come you cannot perplex his damage down to 2, since your already in the game. Or is it like specifically stated that you cannot perplex things to meet pre-requisites. I would assume since you check prerequisites in the beginning, and since you can use it because he has 2 on his dial, but cant use it while u have more than 2 damage, that youd be able to perplex your damage value down to 2 in order to activate it.

From the General FAQ:
Character stats cannot be modified (i.e. via Perplex or other means) to meet the prerequisite of the Feat at the time of use. However, if a character meets the prerequisites, then the stats may be modified (subject to the Rule of 3) as long as the prerequisites for the Feat are not violated.

This is why Iron Fist can't Perplex his Damage Value down to a 2.

But, if Iron Fist had Leap/Climb showing on his dial and a Damage Value of 1, he could Perplex his Damage Value up to 2 and still be able to Pounce.

If he Perplexed his Damage Value to 3, he would not be eligible to Pounce on that turn.

So my question is, if you have a damage value of 2 showing, such as venom, can you perplex venom's damage to 3 and still use pounce?

No, because you no longer meet the required prerequisite of 1 or 2 damage.
