Xizor passing crit damage

By piznit, in X-Wing Rules Questions

If Xizor suffers a crit hit, do you flip the card first, then decide to pass it, or do you have to pass it first?

Specifically, if I'm flying Xizor with Determination, and 3 Ywings with Salvaged Astromechs, can I see the damage card to find out if it's "Ship" or "Pilot" before I pass/keep it?

He passes the die result, which is then suffered by someone else.
He doesn't pass the dealt card or steal a shield token from a teammate.

Well, dang. So much for that idea

As noted you pass the result which happens long before you get to know what the card is.

IF you could know what the card is before passing it you might see people flying A-Wings with Determination and DtF. If you know DtF will pull a Pilot card to land on your A-WIng hull then you use it and if not you don't. Of course it's a bad idea with so few hull points but the idea is there.

Also, as with DTF, don't even start thinking about Xizor handing off a crit from an Ion Cannon/Turret. You're still hit, so you're getting ioned regardless, and still take the 1 damage. We're still ...unsure as to whether the ship you passed the Crit to also gains damage, but it's a bad scenario anyway :)

So wait....Xizor passes off the crit effect but not the damage?

Im still a little unclear on that. Can someone break this down for me? Step by step?

Attacker rolls red dice

Defender then attacker modify red dice

Defender rolls green dice

Attacker then defender modify green dice

Swoosh results cancel boom results

Any remaining swoosh results cancel kaboom results

If there are any uncancelled boom or kaboom results, the attack is considered a "hit"

This is where draw their fire triggers. If the attack "hits" then one of the uncancelled kaboom results (if there is one) is moved from the target of the attack to the ship with draw their fire.

Then any uncancelled boom results become damage and any uncancelled kaboom results become critical damage

For each point of damage on a ship, remove 1 shield, if there are no shields left each point of damage deals a face down damage card.

For each point of critical damage on a ship, remove 1 shield, if there are no shields left each point of critical damage deals a face up damage card. Resolve those face up effects as they occur.

From this, what you should be getting is that DTF move a dice result to another ship. Then, once dice results become damage, the damage from the moved die result gets applied to the ship it was moved to, instead of the original target.

So if a PWT gets 1 uncanceled crit, and his buddy Draws Fire, the PWT doesnt get to use gunner?

Nope. The damage is suffered by someone else, but DTF or Xizor's ability both happen after the step that determines whether you hit.

Once again, thank you. I thought that was the series of events but the other posts had me guessing.
