Ancillary Ion Weapons

[Ryuneke]

I have a question concerning the new Ancillary Ion Weapons. The upgrade reads:

"While you perform a primary front arc attack, before rolling attack dice, you may spend 2 charges . If you do, your crit results deal ion tokens instead of damage."

Does it mean, that the effect triggers even if the attack does not hit.

Thanks!

No, the Ancillary Ion Weapon effect means that after step 4 of an attack (the Neutralize Results step) if there are any uncancelled critical results remaining you would deal ion tokens instead of critical damage.
