Can a defensive roll be used against damage from Artificer Nanites or other status effects?
The rulebook limits defending to an opponent's Offensive Ability, and several players confirm Nanite damage gets no defensive roll.

No. Nanite and status-effect damage dealt on its own, such as Nanites detonated in the Upkeep Phase, is not an attack, so there is no defensive roll against it. Cards and status tokens such as Evasive can still be used against it. If a bot is activated as part of an offensive ability, its damage joins that ability and takes its damage type.
