Slaked Thirsts exertion

[neopium]

Hi everyone,

One point of rules regarding slaked thirsts:

I always thought that I could choose to exert a minion with two vitality, but MarcinS says this is only possible if no other minion has three vitality

If there is a minion that can be exerted twice, you have to choose that one. You can only choose to exert minion with 2 vitality with Slaked Thirst, only if there is no minions that can be exerted twice.

I think this discussion is more relevant in this sub-forum, as apparently it is not a bug... Can someone point to what rule says you have to exert the minion that can be exerted twice first?

The rules say that if you have to choose between several different effects, you must choose the one that you are most fully capable of completing.

The exact text is as follows

If the effect of a card or special ability requires you to perform an action and you cannot, you must perform as much as you can and ignore the rest. (See limit.)
