How does Fox Fire work when selecting targets and their might values change before resolution?
Ruling: Fox Fire targets are selected when the spell is cast and locked in at that point. On resolution, you kill as many of those locked-in targets as possible up to a total of 4 might, adjusting for any might changes that occurred.
Sequence:
- Select targets when casting the spell (total might must be 4 or less at this point)
- Targets are locked in
- On resolution, kill as many of the locked targets as possible up to 4 total might
- If a target's might increased but is still 4 or less, you can still kill it along with other targets totaling 4 might
- If a target's might increased above 4, you cannot kill it but kill the remaining valid targets
Nuances:
- Spells in Riftbound don't fizzle; you do as much as you can with the locked-in targets
- If you only selected one target and it gets buffed above 4 might, Fox Fire resolves killing nothing
- You cannot change or deselect targets after casting, even if might values change
