Question: DR versus Armor, "Incoming!" and Muton grenades
Posted: Tue Mar 07, 2017 8:41 am
On Veteran, I'm having characters get hit for 4 damage from September (normal) Muton plasma grenades while the "Incoming" officer buff is allegedly active on them. (It happened during the enemy phase immediately after I used it).
Is this normal, or is the buff broken somehow?
Supposedly "Incoming" grants "4 DR" against explosives. I am guessing that DR is probably treated the same as Armor (in that armor pen is able to penetrate it, which would mean the plasma grenades are bypassing some of it), but some clarification would be welcome.
My partner who plays LW2 is also reporting ADVENT rockets hitting for full/near full damage (e.g. 7) through it, and I'm pretty sure those don't penetrate armor, so I'm not sure if the buff is doing anything or not.
