When does the effect work? I thought if he was equipped with a card - let's say black pendant - and he attacked your opponents LP directly, the battle damage would be 1800 and his new base attack would be 1800 and with BP it would be 2300. How does it actually work?
Same analysis here. But attack doesn't change every time it attacks directly when therw is an active HHG on field. Any explanation on this card's last effect? How it works?
You're reading it backwards. It doesn't say its original ATK becomes the battle damage, it says the battle damage becomes the original ATK. In other words, no matter how high its ATK gets, the battle damage will still always be 1300.
The last guy is saying utter 🔥. Its battle damage is affected by all card effects. Sadly I haven't found a way to make Sonic Shooter's effect work, It's a shame. It is a very interesting ability.
The last guy is an idiot and the guy before him was right. When he attacks directly with his effect, his battle damage will always be 1300 (i.e. his original ATK). Go test it out and see for yourself. I put 3 gravity axes on him against a lvl 10 LD and he still only did 1300 damage with his direct attack.
To clarify: this ONLY applies when you attack directly via his effect. Any other battle damage will be affected by ATK boosts like normal, but in no way will it increase his original ATK.
It states that the original attack of the card 'becomes' the battle damage that was inflicted, literally meaning that the original attack should become the battle damage that was inflicted. If it said that the battle damage inflicted is equal to the cards original attack it would make sense. Either the cards written wrong or it's implemented wrongly in the game.
No, it does NOT say the original attack becomes the damage inflicted. It clearly says the damage inflicted becomes the original attack. "When it does, any Battle Damage this card inflicts to your opponent's Life Points becomes the original ATK of this card." None of you would be confused if you'd stop reading the effect backwards.
The word "becomes" seems to be what confuses people the most. Just think of it this way "anytime you attack directly, the battle damage will always be the original attack of this card" that is the easiest and best way to read this.
It because you attack directly that its damage always 1300 ( no more than its original attack).
Note that the effect affect its damage, NOT its original attack in any way. Its just misconception
