Ok, 10 damage AND extra turn is all one. I was thinking extra turn was like rolling snake eyes 😛 . Just been unlucky and only been getting -attack and gems explode.

I thought he had 4 effects and the card chose 2 of them to execute. Nobend uses 10 damage and -4 to stats or some other combination.

@Ozball has it correct. The troop can do one of three things:

1. -4 Attack to all enemies;
2. 10 AoE damage, and an extra turn; or
3. Explode 6 gems.

In my opinion, the troop is overcomplicated and should be simplified.

The main issue is the randomness element. But at the same time. You’re either reducing all enemies attack by 4 which is quite large at lower levels, or you’re dealing scaling AoE damage with an extra turn to boot. Or you’re exploding 6 random gems, which could also result in and extra turn if you’re lucky.

Not saying they’re amazing, but I think they might still fit in a goblin team if you can handle the randomness.

I am wondering if all the skills are boosted by magic or not. It would be amazing if all of its spell was based on magic.

Lyya’s site only says it’s the AoE damage, but I’m going to run a quick test in-game and see.

Looks to be only the AoE damage that scales.

Base (for me):  
4 Attack  
5 Damage  
6 Gems

+1 Magic:  
4 Attack  
6 Damage  
6 Gems

+2 Magic:  
4 Attack  
7 Damage  
6 Gems

Using Team Bonuses to play with the magic levels.

That is sad, the aoe is strong but the rest of the spell is just not able to keep up it seems.

Originally the spell did scale all three aspects. I’m not sure why it was changed pre-release.

Ah so I’m not going crazy thinking I saw multiple scalings back before release!
