- As a Discover effect, this minion's Battlecry allows the player to choose one of the three above options to place into their hand. Unlike other Discover effects the same selection is provided each time Rafaam is played.
- While the order of the three choices is in a fixed order, it will be randomized for your opponent, therefore they cannot see what artifact you picked.[1]
Timepiece of Horror shoots 10 missiles, each one dealing 1 damage to a randomly selected enemy character:
- Each missile is resolved (queuing and resolving triggered effects, such as that of
Acolyte of Pain) before the next one is shot. - As with all random effects, the missiles can hit any enemy, including Immune targets (which will however suffer no damage), Stealthed minions and the enemy hero.
- Characters which have been mortally wounded by earlier missiles or destroyed by triggered effects like
Acidmaw will not be selected as targets for subsequent missiles (thus preventing missiles from dealing 'overkill' damage to targets that have already been destroyed by earlier missiles). - Bonuses from Spell Damage and Prophet Velen will increase the total damage of this spell, not the damage dealt by each missile: for example, with Spell Damage +2 this spell will shoot 2 extra missiles, each one still dealing just 1 damage.
