Additionally "pulling your punches" is represented by the "target only passes out when reduced to 0" rule, not by voluntarily reducing the amount of damage one does.So - if he manages to damage himself before the start of his next turn, he can feel free. If stabbing himself is the best thing he can think of to do with an action point, more power to him, and if he uses some other minor-action attack power to damage himself, again: who cares?The only problem is that you're creating a minor action attack that causes 1 point of damage. If that's not there, this is not an advantageous tactic most of the time (unless you're fighting something with ludicrous defenses and you're using at-wills on it and never taking damage from it).</blockquote>
