Weakening Mechanics Questions (Perhaps Bugs?)

ZXer

1. How can Eugene inflict weakening on himself?

2. What is the rule on body shots / push mechanism on weakened enemies? 

My interpretation is as follow: if a Morning Star hits 2 enemies in line and the furthest enemy is weakened, that hit will be considered non body shot, therefore both enemies must be pushed (not stunned). However from experience, this applies inconsistently (sometimes pushed, sometimes stunned).

Can we get understanding what the intent on the mechanics is? Is this a bug or is there some logic to it?



3. Should weakening alone (without perseverance) be able to produce 2 charge points when hitting a single enemy? My interpretation is that it should not, yet, it happens quite frequently on warriors with Morning Star.

However, I have not noticed it to happen on other weapons without push mechanics.

Also here, can we get understanding what the intent on the mechanics is? Is this a bug or is there some logic to it?


4. If you hit 3 enemies in a row with a Morning Star = 2 enemies are hit with direct hit, and the 3rd one is hit by collision. We have noticed that the 3rd enemy (which is NOT hit by direct hit) will often get weakening inflicted.

Is this a bug or is it the correct intention?

1 and 2 are already reported in game and they say they are forwarding it to developers.

3 and 4 are not reported, not sure if these are bugs, so just some open questions for the time being

I have no answers but wanted to add my experience with Weakening. Twice now I have had a situation where I Weakened a Z with Hershal and went in to follow up with Zeke (who even had the Morning Star) and got a body shot. Now I thought that with the Morning Star you never got a body shot on your turn but I also thought the same for Weakening :P
