Reflexive definition of "enemy" makes Purge self-harming if cast on your enemy

    I liked hearing that "Holy Presence now only removes enemy controlled attachments." I was less thrilled that "Purge and Shrug it Off only affect enemy attachments."

    I am especially un-thrilled to learn that the definition of "enemy" is reflexive: which is to say, if you cast Purge on YOUR enemy, then only the attachments by your ENEMY'S ENEMY (YOU) will be removed. Which is to say, your attempt to erase your enemy's Impenetrable Nimbus will instead only remove your own Unholy Curse.

    Purge is now self-harming if cast on your enemy.

    That has to be a mistake right? Also i honestly feel holy presence works well now and the others should work like they used to.

    Well Holy Presence as it used to work was kind of a mixed blessing. Having it be a trait made it feel more like a hybrid boost drawback, whereas Purge and Shrug It Off are played when and if you want to, making the loss of anything you wanted on that character a concsious decision, keeping it's strength in check.

    So yeah, long way of saying I'm with Wozarg

    What if Purge is changed to 'Choose and remove any number of attachments on the target' ?

    And Shrug It Off is change to 'on you' wording of above.

    That way you can still remove anything you don't like, but also able to choose to keep the ones you prefer staying on your target (like say if your wizard put 2 burns in your target and you want to keep those for the next round to tick with both Kindler and Firestarter, or if the target draw Trip)

    Well, don't think the game currently allows selecting specific attachments - so that't likely something that needs to be coded in that case , don't see that happening for just those cards.

    Note to self, immediately stop using purge... I've been wondering why it worked only some of the time. :p
