| + | Here, you can find the most frequently used information about Skills to help you play the game. If you find that you need more detailed rules, check out the [[system:skills|Main Skills Page]]. | ||

| + | |||
| + | ===== Test Guide ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Every Skill uses 2 related Traits, as listed in its Skill Chart. Whichever has the higher rank is your "Dominant Trait" for that Skill. | ||
| + | |||
| + | When making a Skill test, start by rolling 10 D10s. Every die that rolls lower than your Dominant Trait increases your Skill rank by +1. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The modified Skill rank is your score for the test. | ||
| + | |||
| + | * For example, the related Traits for Stealth are Acuity and Agility. If you have Acuity 5 and Agility 3, your Dominant Trait is 5. This means, when you roll dice for Stealth, each die rolling less than 5 (4 or less) modifies your Stealth by +1 for that test. | ||
| + | * Continuing this example, if you have a Stealth rank of 7 and 4 dice rolled lower than your Dominant Trait, then your score for the test is 7+4 = 11 | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | **__When making a Skill test:__** | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | * Remember that your Traits represent your fundamental strengths and weaknesses, while Skills represent your training and expertise. Both are combined to give your final test score. | ||
| + | * First, find your rank in the **Skill** you want to use, then roll that many D6 dice. (a D6 is a six-sided die) For example, if you have 5 ranks in the Skill, roll 5 D6 dice. | ||
| + | * Compare your dice results with the table below and add up your AP score. | ||
| + | * Next, find the related **Traits** for the Skill you are using In the "Skills and Related Traits" list below. | ||
| + | * Check your rank in those Traits and find whichever is higher. This is your Dominant Trait for that Skill. | ||
| + | * Gain bonus AP equal to your Dominant Trait rank. This is called your Trait bonus. | ||
| + | * Finally, total up your dice results with your Trait bonus. | ||
| + | * This is your final AP score for the test. | ||
| + | |||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | __Example:__ | ||
| + | |||
| + | Steve is making a Mech Lore test to repair his truck. Don't ask. | ||
| + | * His rank in Mech Lore is 6, so he rolls 6 dice and gets the results: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. | ||
| + | * Looking at the table, we see that the results of 1-3 earn no bonus, but the 4 and 5 grant +1AP each, while the 6 gives +2AP for a total of (0 + 0 + 0 + 1 + 1 + 2) = 4AP. | ||
| + | * Steve now checks the related **Traits** for Mech Lore and finds these are **Acuity** or **Resolve** (whichever is higher). | ||
| + | * His **Acuity Trait** is higher at rank 5, so he adds +5AP to the test as his Trait bonus. | ||
| + | * Totaling up his dice results (4AP) and his Trait bonus (5AP), Steve ends with (4 + 5) = 9AP. | ||
| + | * 9AP is Steve's final score for the Mech Lore test. | ||
