This may be a stupid question, but I just had an issue with the wording of Lobo's CZARNIAN REGENERATION power and needed some clarification.


His power reads:
Does he actually have to click for this to happen? If he gets dealt damage and I reduce it with Impervious, do I still get a Drop of Blood token?
I'm trying to reconcile "dealt damage" with "taking damage." My gut says he has to click, but stranger things have happened.

Your gut is correct. Taking damage means you turned the dial clockwise. If he is dealt damage and it is reduced to 0, he wouldn't take damage and would not get a Drop of Blood Token.

"Taking damage" is actually clicking the dial, yes. "Damage dealt" is before reducers, ignoring, etc. So, Damage dealt > reducers > take damage.

While we're on the subject, kind of, I just wanted to double-check the following:

Can Lobo use Regeneration as a free action, subtracting 3 from the roll, and then use Regeneration as a regular action? I'm under the impression that he can; however, someone argued that he may not use the same power twice in a turn.

A character may not activate the same effect twice in a turn WITH FREE ACTIONS. You are not trying to do that. Lobo can activate Regeneration normally and with a free action (provided he doesn't heal off Regen the first time he uses it, of course).

Thank you all for the help! Definitely appreciated.
