Intro<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n

Every Hexlord learns through battle\u2026 but sometimes, a shortcut helps.<\/strong>
Below are answers to the most commonly asked questions during play \u2014 straight from the Codex Council archives.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Movement & Positioning<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Q1. Can Hexmasters move through occupied hexes when using Dash or standard movement?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 No. All movement \u2014 including Dash \u2014 must pass through unoccupied hexes only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q2. Can Dash be used to leap over enemies or allies?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 No. Dash is not leap or teleportation. Every hex moved into must be unoccupied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q3. Can Blink go through occupied hexes?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 Yes. Blink is teleportation \u2014 it ignores what lies between and lands in any open hex within 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Edict Interactions & Status Effects<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Q4. Does Fortify prevent all effects or just damage?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 Fortify protects against damage and displacement<\/strong> (e.g. Push, Arcshock). It does not<\/strong> block Silence, Mark, or Drain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q5. Can Reclaim be used multiple times on the same Glyphex?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 Yes, currently. However, this may be revised to prevent recursion loops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q6. Does Clone Decoy prevent Silence or non-damaging effects?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 No. Clone Decoy only blocks damage<\/strong>. It does not prevent status effects or CE manipulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q7. Can Rootstep or Root Trap create multiple rooted hexes?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 No. Each player may only have one active Rooted Hex<\/strong> at a time. New ones replace the old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revival & Sanctum Mechanics<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Q8. Can you revive directly on a Sanctum or only adjacent?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 Both are legal. Revived Hexmasters can be placed on or adjacent to a Sanctum<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q9. Does a Hexmaster on a Sanctum block the opponent from reviving there?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 No. Standing on a Sanctum does not prevent<\/strong> the opposing player from reviving beside it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q13. When a Hexmaster is revived, is its Class Edict refreshed?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 No. Class Edicts are once per game<\/strong>. They are not restored by revival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Edict-Specific Questions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Q10. Can Fortify block Arcshock or Backstab?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 Yes. Fortify blocks the damage dealt by either Edict. However, the Edict may still be declared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q11. Does Arcshock affect allied Hexmasters?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 No. Arcshock targets enemy units only<\/strong> \u2014 the main target and adjacent enemies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q12. Can Arcshock target an empty hex?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 No. It must target an enemy Hexmaster<\/strong>. It cannot be used on empty space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q14. Can Fortify be used on the same turn as another Edict?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 No. Each Hexmaster can either move or activate one Edict per turn<\/strong> \u2014 not both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q15. If a Glyphex is removed (downgraded), is it discarded or returned to the Lexicon?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 It is discarded<\/strong>. Only effects like Reclaim<\/strong> can return it to your draw pool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q16. Can a Root Trap be manually removed?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 No. It remains in play until triggered or replaced. Only one Root Trap per player at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Game-Ending Conditions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Q17. Is the game over the moment a player\u2019s CE reaches 0?<\/strong>
\ud83c\udd50 No. If a player\u2019s Core Energy drops to 0<\/strong>, the game does NOT end immediately \u2014 if that player still has 0 CE at the END of any turn, the game ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
