Blessing of Abraxis in combat check on Balazar


Rules Questions and Gameplay Discussion


Hey.

When I use Balazar and Padraig's ability and play the blessing, do I get to add 2 dice because I'm using my arcane skill or just 1?


One die.

You are not using your Arcane skill. You are adding your Arcane skill.

What matters is, the check is not an Arcane check. Adding a skill to a check does not add the skill as a trait.

For reference:

Display this card. While displayed, when you attempt a Strength check and do not play a weapon, you may put a card on top of your deck to add your Arcane skill plus the scenario's adventure deck number to that check.

Discard this card to add 2 dice to any Arcane or Divine check.

If a power adds an additional skill or die to a check, that skill or die is not added as a trait to the check.

Sizzerz's dated writeup of the steps of a check still gives an accurate depiction of the traits of a check.


ah okay thank you =)
