Effect Targets Self not working

[Nuccia]

Hi, it seems that the effect Targets : Self is not working.

As you can see the shield effect is applied on the selected target instead of the 'Hero'

Just to provide a better exemple. I’m trying to add the bonus on the player (self) and the mark on the target. But its seems that the Targets self effects doesn’t overwrite. Everything is applied to the target.

If you have no tokens targeted then ‘Target: Self’ will apply to the caster. But if you do have tokens targeted then it will apply to those targets anyway and ignore the ‘Target: Self’. The reasoning is that it’s a lot easier to just target/untarget tokens than it is to open an item sheet and modify the ‘Target: Self’, so if you’re in a situation where you actually need an effect applied to a different target than self, then you can do that easily without disrupting the game.

So that’s relevant to the Shield example. For Hunter’s Mark, I can see what you’re trying to accomplish, however there is just no way currently in obsidian to express the intent of ‘this creature takes more damage from this other creature’. It’s something I have yet to implement, and I’m not sure how it will look ultimately, but I may have to change some of the behaviour around targeting to accommodate it.
