So going off the new honour's text I assumed that if you have an inactive spouse you could have someone attack the spouse, then attack the attacker and fight them off. Therefore you and your spouse "defeated an opponent"

I think this should be changed so people with an inactive spouse can get this merit.
Are you really a deadly duo if your spouse is fast asleep?
If im deadly enough for the two of us, then yes, I believe so. :)
In all seriousness, we both damaged insi, and she was defeated by one of us. That seems to be the two of us working in tandem.
I don't believe it should count in instances like this...
I'll ask Joe.

Mentions:
An idea to keep your inactive spouse
I'm unsure how I can make it any clearer?
Attack and defeat an opponent with your spouse
It doesn't say...
Save your spouse from an incoming attack
?
> Save your spouse from an incoming attack
Not a bad idea for a new merit, though!
I attacked and defeated an opponent, from my players perspective I was with my spouse, on his side. ¯\_(?)_/¯ It was easily worth a try, and an ask. Since technically I fulfilled the requirements, even if my spouse didnt and he wouldnt qualify for the merit.
Kernode is correct in that would make an awesome addition for a merit to go along with the other one.
So long, Link. It was a nice couple thousand days.
