Jabba Fast Hands Blackmail

By Jarond, in Star Wars: Destiny

If I activate Jabba and roll out Blackmail am I allowed to reroll with his ability and still use Blackmail with Fast Hands?

Yes.

Would the opponent be able to pay a resource before resolving with fast hands in the case of using his ability to reroll first?

No. Well not unless you actually want the opponent to pay you resources to remove the die.

There are 3 triggered events that all belong to the player with Jabba. Jabbas reroll ability, blackmails "blackmail" effect & fast hands and that player can resolve those abilities in whichever order they want.

You can reroll, then resolve fast hands the resolve the blackmail trigger last, though obviously the blackmail die is gone by this stage.

The key thing some players get caught on is that the Jabba player owns the blackmail trigger, not the opponent, even though the effect of the trigger is an optional payment for the opponent.

That's correct. This is also in the official FFG rules reference:

"Can I roll in a Blackmail (SoR23) die and resolve it with Fast Hands (SoR150) before an opponent can give me a resource to remove it?

Yes. The abilities are simultaneous so you can choose to resolve either one in order of your choice. "
