Dual form triggers an effect (burn the other DF minion) when one of the DF minions is no longer ready. If the non-ready DF minion was burned/torporized in combat, is this effect treated and resolved as if during that combat? I'm guessing no, because once a minion in combat is no longer ready combat ends? But want to check on the exact sequence. G

[ quoted text not captured ] Correct. If the first minion saves himself (with Undead Persistence, for example), then the effect (burn buddy from Dual Form) is not triggered (well, at least it is delayed in the Undead Persistence case). The buddy burn only occurs once the vampire is not ready (and combat has therefore ended).

Okay, So, this like, becomes really cool when Dual Form Buddies start to Reform Body? Or could you not do that if you controll the Dual Forms and are in your own turn, since they are not the one in combat, and it's a reaction card? /jo

[ quoted text not captured ] The combatant buddy can Reform Body as a combat card. The non-combatant buddy can Reform Body as areaction card if he is untapped and the acting minion is controlled by another Methuselah (typically meaning it is that other Methuselah's turn, but that isn't always the case thanks to Madness Network -- so the key is "who is acting" not "whose turn is it").
