Melee Point Buy: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 23:09, 31 July 2022

Weapon Point Buy is part of the Proficiency System. Its Packs allow a Character to use weapons, and get weapon-related Mundane Techniques. Any learned Technique can be used on any weapon a Character knows how to use.

Weapons can be used to attack people without using their attached Abilities. We encourage dice rolls to resolve disputes when players can't figure out what to do next.

 | Mundane Technique
 | {{#simple-tooltip: Melee Range | Melee Range means what the combatants consider within reasonable range to strike a target with a Melee attack regardless of weapon length. This can be anywhere between 1 to 3 blocks).}}
-| Grants the user {{#simple-tooltip: Force Smash | The user can attack with such ferocity that the user is able to destroy any mundane or Ability-Summoned shield instantly by shattering it on impact. If the user strikes Armor with this Technique, a specific piece of armor that the user chooses (left arm, right arm, chest, or head) gains the Brittle Debuff. The Armor does not break, but it can easily be bypassed and no longer affects the defensiveness of the Target on that specific body part. This has no effect on Ability-Created armor. The Brittle Debuff lasts for 10 minutes. This Mundane Technique has a 1 hour cooldown.
+| Grants the user {{#simple-tooltip: Force Smash | The user can attack with such ferocity that the user is able to destroy any mundane or Ability-Summoned shield instantly by shattering it on impact. This ignores any Mundane Technique or Ability that would make the target immune to this Technique. The user  can only destroy one shield per day. If this Technique is countered, and does not destroy a shield, it goes on a 30 minute cooldown.
