Thank you very much

This came up in a game today. I was hit for 4 damage on wolverine and then played x-ceptional healing to reduce it to one. My opponent gained 4 power from his builder and I only gained one. I then asked why he got 4 and he said the damage is applied before I can modify it so he gets the power. Now the card reads "would be damaged" I think the card is played in step 11 and therefore the damage is only one and the power gained would be one. Tell me if I am wrong. We are both new.
