Tempered Faulds VS Damage Barrier

[Santar]

Tempered Faulds: once per round, when this Mage is the target of an attack with an effect roll, you may force the attacker to reroll the effect die.

If Mage attacked by Tegu, Hydrothermal Vent or Burst of Thorns he can use the Faulds ability.
But wat with the damage barrier?



Since Damage Barrier skip all attack phases but roll the dice and damage, I think we can't use the Faulds ability for d12.

i don't have the card... but if it make its effect during the roll dice step, there is one when the barrier attacks.

Tempered Faulds work just fine against damage barriers. The effect of the faulds isn't limited to specific types of attacks. It can work against conjurations, equipment, and even against damage barriers. If the attack rolls the effect die, the faulds work and can force a reroll. That's all there is to it.

The Roll Dice step is where this ability would apply. If you roll the effect die, the Faulds can force a reroll of it. It doesn't matter what other steps happen or don't happen. Of course, if you skipped the roll dice step, then you couldn't use the ability, but in that case it wouldn't really matter, would it?
