Epic Junior + Race/Class enhancers

SmokeRulz · 03-10-2011, 09:41 PM

Couldn't find anything regarding this. Figured I'd ask about it and see what our knowledgeable mods have to say.

Epic Junior, as I'm sure we're all familiar with, grants Epic abilities to whatever Race/Class/Accent/Loyalty/Mojo that it's equipped to. But this got me thinking about the cards High, Dark, and Master. These cards have their own Epic abilities despite not strictly being Race/Class cards, but rather enhancers to whatever Race/Class you equip them to. Epic Junior doesn't cover them in their text, at least not directly.

The way I see it, since the enhancers become a part of whatever Race/Class you equip them to, logic would say that if you equipped an enhanced Race/Class with Epic Junior, you'd get the Epic abilities of both cards. Is this correct? And if it is, if you have a Race/Class equipped with Epic Junior, could you add the enhancer later and still get its epic ability, or do both cards need to be in play before Epic Junior comes out?

Alternatively, the enhancers could be considered seperate cards in their own right, which means Epic Junior would have to be individually equipped to them in lieu of your Race/Class. This doesn't make much sense to me, though. Which way is correct?

Thanks in advance!

You may not use Epic Junior in conjunction with High, Dark, Master, or (since you bring it up) Steeds. The traits listed on the EJ card are the only ones it can be used with.

Yeah, that makes sense. Thanks Andrew!
