[QUOTE="Evenglare, post: 5963310, member: 63245"] This is correct, however, d4s are only for reaction rolls . They are to set target number for sentient creatures that defend. Like link defending with a shield. They are never used for skills. Also, it seems like starting characters will have a hard time hitting even Easy (5) DC's, as they will have a 1k1 attribute (roll 1 for trait, keep 1 for medallion) for most things - if they're using a d4, it's [I]impossible[/I] to hit a 5 DC without some sort of positive modifier. And this is supposed to be for something like "recognizing an old friend"? When using a skill you will be rolling a d6 almost certainly with a modifier. It is very possible to hit something with a 5, although I very well may need to decrease those TN's those were actually ripped directly from the TN mods of L5R which I do realize uses 10s. I just used 5 as a base TN because defending with a d4 (average 2.5) would do half a heart, so a TN of 5 would do a full heart of damage which would be the sort of "base" TN to use. There Again I will have to address those DCs, which is why i posted this on here . I really appreciate this feed back ! [/QUOTE]
