Timings for a few spells


Rules Questions and Gameplay Discussion


Hello all!

I am still learning the game and I have some doubts on when you can play some spells.

I know you can only play them when they are "relevant" but that's a bit vague, isn't it?

Can I play spells like Speed during a check? Can I play it during a check that doesn't involve dexterity? While not useful for the check itself it will stay for the rest of the turn so maybe..

Can I play Cure during a check (mostly to use blessing of pharasma or to avoid losing it to combat damage)?

I am inclined to believe the answer is no to both questions, but I guess it's better to ask experts.

Thanks in advance!

No, but you can play it after the encounter.

No

There are plenty of opportunities to play spells like Cure and Speed when you're not in an encounter, but once you're in an encounter you are only allowed to play cards and use powers that affect that encounter.

Hawkmoon made a post a while back that went into detail on the steps of a turn, if you want to check it out
