[QUOTE="Primitive Screwhead, post: 6828014, member: 20805"] Okay.. question time. Am I reading [url=http://www.woinrpg.com/derived-statistics/]this[/url] right. Determining Physical and Ranged defenses. 1) Create a dice pool based on attribute, skill and equipment. STR 12 = 4D + Dodging 4 = 2D + High Quality Armor = 1D ; total = 7D 2) Cap by character Grade 5 traditions = 5D CAP 3) Refer to table for average value 5D = 18 4) Adjust for Size bonus/malus Medium = +0 5) Adjust for Armor Def malus light = 0, medium = -2, heavy = -4 6) Adjust for Shield Def Bonus Small = +2, Medium = +4, Large = +6 7) If less than 10, treat as 10 *this is basically stating that any attack has to exceed 10 and the targets defenses, but written wonky So... your defensive values for a starting medium character, Grade 5, are between 10 and 24... with the majority being closer to the 18 range. A High Stat and moderate defensive skill will hit the grade cap. A Gigantic Rank 5 creature might as well not bother with shields or defensive skills. As you increase in Grade/Rank, the top end of the scale moves upward by about 4 points each rank, but the lower end stays at 10. I assume this is to reduce the swingy-ness experienced without the die cap. [/QUOTE]
