Handyman playing non-optimally #835

Handyman has a Hammer+ (shocks on 6) and a Pea Shooter + (countdown of 5, does 3 damage).

He rolled dice and spannered them to get a 5, 6, 2. He placed the 6 and the 2 into the pea shooter+ and the 5 into the hammer+, leading to only 8 damage and no status effect, compared to 9 damage and a shock if he put the 6 into the Hammer+. (Also this combined with #830 to be even less optimal because the countdown doesn't even start any lower.)

Hmm, thank you! That's definitely weird.

What was the Pea Shooter+ at when the Handyman made this move? (I'm guessing 3 or less?)

DiceWithDeath commented 5 years ago

Nope! It was at 5, which makes it even weirder. He shouldn't have even expected to get 4 damage out of it (if the bug wasn't there).
