Dark Marionette question

Does its own explosion still occur if I'm exploding it with bodyswap of sacrifice?

No (99% sure), because the minion is "Destroyed", a special condition that doesn't leave behind a corpse to explode. But according to the wiki, the Marionette will still reform.

The different language between Bodyswap (corpse explodes) and Bodyswap of Sacrifice (corpse/minion "destroyed") seems intentional.

I also believe there is some rule somewhere that only one explosion effect can happen on death, different explosions never stack.

bought a dark marionette and tested it with bodyswap of sacrifice+brutality

using bodyswap of sacrifice destroys dark marionette, but dark marionette's explosion still deals damage

not sure if intended, but it works
^well....are you sure it was DM explosion and not the bodyswap explosion?


***Found this: "If multiple different sources of explosions trigger at once, they will all do their damage simultaneously". So, assuming BoS doesn't actually "destroy" the minion, then I guess both explosions do happen.

yes, I was using brutality to prevent bodyswap from doing damage
