Hi LSJ,

a minon has a Weighted Walking Stick with 5 counters. He strikes WWS
against a Nephandus.
How many counters are burned from WWS, 1 or 2?
Or, to put it another way: is reducing damage equivalent to prevent?

Thx,
Alf

Weighted Walking Stick
Type: Combat
Only usable before range is determined on the first round.
Put this card on this minion and put 5 counters on this card. While in
play, this card represents a melee weapon (equipment) that does
strength+1 damage each strike. For each point of damage inflicted by
this strike (even if prevented), remove a counter from this card. Burn
this card when it has no counters. A minion can have only one Weighted
Walking Stick.

Nephandus (Mage)
Type: Ally
Requires: Tremere antitribu
Cost: 2 pool
Mage with 2 life. 0 strength, 1 bleed.
The Nephandus may strike for 1R damage. The Nephandus gets an optional
press each combat. Each strike or damaging effect made against the
Nephandus by the opposing minion during combat inflicts 1 less damage.
The Nephandus may burn a vampire in torpor to gain 1 life as a (D)
action.

Assuming the strike inflicts 1 damage, 1.

No. Unpreventable damage can be reduced.
