The action Shrug it off (which has the slayer, reaction traits). Why is it differently designed than normal active defences? Instead of having a number in the top right corner for recharge, the card tells you to put recharge tokens on it, why is this? Wouldn't a 5 in the top right corner have exactly the same effect as the text that tells you to add 5 recharge tokens to the card?

I never thought about it, but my slayer player asked if there was a difference, so I though I'd ask here as I could not come up with any way it differed.
Any thoughts/ideas?

It's just inconsistent. I don't think there's a reason for it.

Excellent point. Our slayer said the same thing. I'm off to put a sticker on the card (I use the corner of a sticky note).
