FAQ 4.3.0 Rage Example Poorly Chosen

By ThisIsDavin, in X-Wing Rules Questions

Am I the only one here (likely, but a stupid person is one who doesn't ask, not one who does) that thinks the choice of Soontir and associated description can leave some ambiguity?

"Soontir Fel uses Rage, he would receive 2 focus tokens after receiving 2 stress tokens" ...so, is that in addition to the Focus he received from Rage? or inclusive of it?

I'm assuming (yes, bad to do so, I know) because Rage tells you to apply the focus and THEN 2 stress, that is would be in addition to- but it would be really nice if they could have written the FAQ to have said "Soontir Fel will end up having a total of 3 focus tokens and 2 stress tokens after performing the Rage action"

I agree. i had to read it twice to make sure what they were trying to convey.

Yah they'd have been better off using baffles as the example.

I don't really see the problem. The focus you get from Rage normally is not handed out after the stress is taken:

Quote

Assign 1 focus token to your ship and receive 2 stress tokens.

So the FAQ entry is specifying that you get two focus tokens after receiving the two stress tokens, which themselves are after you already dealt with the focus from Rage. It's only unclear if you already have other misunderstandings about how to execute card text.

Yeah you get 3 focus tokens.

would have been easier to just say "Assign 1 stress token and resolve any effects that may trigger, then assign the second and do the same"
