Dice Trial by Fire - Exalted 2e OOC

[Rykon]

So, your saying the successes, after hit, that are carried over to damage, are counted twice?

Yes, exactly. It's the same effect as Hungry Tiger Technique in Melee.

 

[Rykon]

I suppose this should be deferred to Sherwood rather than me spouting off my previous assumption and reading of the rules. I'm not the ST after all.

FWIW, I see how dependant the application of the charm is to recognizing the jargon terms for resolving an attack. It kind of frustrates me to review it and see how potentially misleading it is in either direction.

 

[Sherwood]

I believe that Rykon has the correct read of the Charm, but at this point, it doesn't matter. Ragnar snapped her neck with plenty of health levels of damage done to her. What are you guys doing about it now?

 

[D. Rex]

Lol certainly limits the effectiveness of the charm. But I suppose it could be overpowered the way I thought it meant.

I would feel bad that I was getting an advantage to doing things wrong. But I at least would have caught it early.

 

[Sherwood]

Well, we are here for you. Everyone was new to the system at one point.

 

[D. Rex]

Well, how many successes from the hit carried over to damage?

 

[Rykon]

I wouldn't feel so bad about the charm. It got buffed in the Errata (note these items are in addition to its existing effect).



You can always add other damage stackers like Thunderbolt Attack Prana in addition to the spillover enhancer.

 

[Sherwood]

Well, how many successes from the hit carried over to damage?

More than the seven levels she had.

 

[D. Rex]

More than the seven levels she had.

I didnt expect to hit her that hard.

Lol Adding even more soak? Ragnar a heckuva amount already.

But doesn't soak not stack?

 

[Rykon]

It's hardness that doesn't stack if I recall correctly. Soak most certainly stacks.

 

[D. Rex]

That easily puts my soak in the 20s.

 

[Rykon]

Sounds like you've reached Warstrider tier soak levels. Very impressive.

 

[D. Rex]

Sounds like you've reached Warstrider tier soak levels. Very impressive.

35/31 if I did the math levels right of all my things active at once. Off the top of my head.


Certainly fitting of the "too angry to die" concept.

 

[D. Rex]

So if I got defense right. With a 10 hardness, and that soak.

An enemy would need to do more than 35/31 raw damage to do more than the minimum damage, which is 1?

 

[Sherwood]

There is always the Overwhelming Tag, usually on large artifact weapons.

 

[D. Rex]

Looks like we didnt burn the body fast enough lol.

Time to punch it in the face!

 

[Psychie]

What the hell is that thing? Ewwww!

 

[Sherwood]

She did warn you. . .

 

[Sherwood]

BTW, awesome rolls for your Join Battle so far!

 

[D. Rex]

Ragnar stand by his decision to suffer the consequences.

 

[Psychie]

Yeah, we'll kick it's . . . asses?

 

[D. Rex]

We shall make it wish that a broken neck was all that it suffered!

 

[D. Rex]

So, uh, how does grappling work against something bigger than you?

 

[Rykon]

Man, DV 11, Soak 25, this one's gonna take some effort to crack open.

 

[D. Rex]

Will just have to hit it even harder.

Sherwood what's the rules of clinching something that large?
