Hey everyone! I have some questions about Midnighter's trait:

WE'VE FOUGHT THIS FIGHT IN MY HEAD ALREADY: When Midnighter targets an opposing character with a close combat attack, until your next turn modify that character's defense value by -1 and ignore any other modifiers to that character's value.

Would this negative modification kick in as soon as he declares the attack, or after the attack resolves? Meaning, would he be able to benefit from the -1 and the ignoring of modifiers during his own attack?

Also, if he has Flurry, would the Trait kick in a second time during the 2nd attack?

Thanks in advance!

Immediately.

Since it lasts until your next turn, the -1 will still be there on the 2nd part of Flurry.

Awesome! Thanks much!

This is how it works in Flurry

Midnighter targets opponent for first attack
He now modifies defence by -1 and all other modifiers to defence are ignored

Midnighter targets opponent for second attack
He now modifies defence by -1 and all other modifiers to defence are ignored, including his previous -1
