Re: Gadgeteer - battle tactics

12 of my 13 retcons were Gadgeteer, mostly Maso so I relied on the Gadgeteer skills. I put all my skill points into the 2 passives and Improved Tinkering, and used Stun Gas only for the Mick. With other bosses or tough enemies it wasn't worth Stun Gassing because otherwise I'd have lost too much HP ...

Not sure if this is a bug in the text or in the mechanic (or neither, maybe a joke?), but the Scavenged death ray (which has "-5 extra ranged attack(s) per turn") gives a message that I hit "-2 times" on the rare occasion it produces a hit.
