But I think the outcome would be that you would take the interpretation you would personally prefer. Nothing more nothing less. Nevertheless I start and try it, please feel free to add pros and cons.1) CA then hit:PROS:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">if you fullfill the requirements you're pretty much guaranteed to roll SA if you want to (possible exception: interrupt-like "power" that makes it somehow impossible to roll your damage at all - I think that's rather rare)</li> </ul>CONS:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">if you don't fulfill the requirements you won't roll SA damage baring some special corner cases like a wraith blade weapon.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">powers like the one in question cannot grant you SA</li> </ul>2) CA and hit or the other way round:PROS:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">it is probably easier to gain SA b/c you can gain it even after hitting (interruot-like effects may cause the target to become dazed before you roll damage)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">powers like the one in question grant you SA</li> </ul>CONS:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">you never know if you can apply your SA until you're actually rolling the SA damage b/c some interrupt-like effect may take CA away before you roll damage. I think that is more likely than the possibility of being denied to roll damage at all as in the pros section in 1).</li> </ul>Conclusions: Both interpretations have their own pros and cons. So no interpretation is by default pro/con players. Therefore, I will wait and see what you will add.</blockquote>
