Effects and use
With this skill, dodge chance is 5% + 3% per rank: 8% at rank 1, 20% at rank 5. Avoids a ranged attack that would hit or fall-trap damage, without preventing the fall. No effect against melee or spells, or without the skill.
Requirements and progression
At creation, choose three different skills at rank 1. Afterwards, one skill point lets you learn a new skill or increase its rank by 1, up to the ranks defined for that skill, provided the requirements are met.
| Rank | Required attributes |
|---|---|
| Rank 1 | No attribute threshold |
| Rank 2 | Agility ≥ 6 |
| Rank 3 | Agility ≥ 8 |
| Rank 4 | Agility ≥ 10 · Perception ≥ 8 |
| Rank 5 | Agility ≥ 12 · Perception ≥ 10 |
These thresholds are checked against the character’s attributes when learning. The current rank rules impose no additional minimum character level. Spending a point requires a living character outside combat.
