[QUOTE="OhGodtheRats, post: 5125357, member: 71815"] I'm SURE this is a stupid question but it came up and was debated at D&D Encounters this week so I figured I'd post and see if something obvious came through. Most of us have noticed the Minotaur race got tweaked on the way from Dragon to PHB3, one of these changes was how Ferocity worked. As it is now it reads: So the core question: If an attack damages me and drops me to 0 hit points and my Immediate Interrupt kills the attacker, does that mean I don't take the damage and am not reduced to 0 (or less) hit points? The follow-up, which is weird. I was playing a Minotaur Battlemind/Warlock Hybrid, with Eldritch Strike as my Basic Melee attack (Arcane Melee, slides enemy 1 square). In my case, if the Immediate Interrupt hits the enemy that was the cause of the damage that would drop me to 0 and I slide it one square so that I'm no long with its reach, does the triggering damage still apply because my Immediate Interrupt made it so the attack couldn't have occurred? I hope I'm explaining this right, it got freaking weird at the table because of it. Thanks for the help and if I'm missing something obvious, my apologies far in advance. -Jared "admittedly rule dumb sometimes" [/QUOTE]
