Beams and Pym Particle Control

[fastenhate]

Storm lays a beam on  who is not in cover. Antman uses pym particle control to move to a location not under the beam that he would have cover. Per the errata the beam would still hit him but would he benefit from cover?  When is cover actually determined?

[Negoldar]

Yes, the beam still hits him and he would benefit from cover. 

Cover is determined when it is needed to be known. It may be gained or lost as the attack resolves. For modifying a die to a block, that’s step 9.a.ii. in the timing chart.
