Do activations of Mairsil grow exponentially with Quicksilver Elemental?
Asked by tacallaway 6 years ago
So I've been trying to brew Mairsil and I found a comment on a Reddit thread that stated that the Mairsil + QE interaction worked like this:
First activation - Mairsil has 2 of each activated ability
Second activation - Mairsil has 4 of each activated ability
Third activation - Mairsil has 8 of each activated ability (and so on)
Is this correct? Obviously the prevailing thought is that you'd get one new set of abilities every time you use QE's ability, but this line of reading seems reasonable. That being said, I didn't understand Mairsil's original ruling regarding this combo, so I thought I'd try and verify.

Huh. I actually built Mairsil recently and this hadn't occurred to me but yes. Each time you spend he gains all the activated abilities again including the ones previously copied. This does not reset the abilities already on him. I want to go a little further into it if you don't mind.
Lets pretend (I made a funny :P) he has Quicksilver Elemental in the cage.
Spend he now has that ability twice but one of the quicksilver abilities is used.
Spend he now has that ability four times and 2 of the quicksilver abilities are used.
Spend he now has that ability eight times and 3 used.
Spend he now has that ability sixteen times and 4 used.
So on and so on.

it would gain All of the activated abilities, and those don't stack so yes,
1248
is correct.
