Dodge is for moving out of the way, Reflex is for quick reaction.

If Reflex is for moving out of the way, whats the point is keeping dodge in the system? None. There is no point in having two things that do the same thing.

Alright... how about a blocking skill?

Mundane?


Qyp I ought to smack you.

Dodge deals with basic attacks. Reflex deals with attempting to avoid damage from AOE or advanced techniques that call for it.

Avoid damage? Wait wait...

Now I am lost... like... completely and utterly lost. So the attacker beats dodge, but if the victim beats Reflex DC, you don't get damaged? Wut? That makes no sense.

So that means blocking would just be beating the Reflex DC basically... Since dodge has failed.

The explanation of Reflex mentions dodging a lot. So it's like the back up dodge?

Qyp I can't believe you don't know how this works.

If someone attacks with a basic attack it is against dodge. If dodge is beat the person is hit.

Advanced techniques such as many ninjutsu require a reflex save (other types require fort or will). You don't do both. Advanced techniques never go against dodge.

So like if I swing a sword at you, it goes against your dodge. If I beat the dodge DC you are hit.

If I shoot a fireball at you it goes against reflex. If you pass the reflex save by 10 or more you don't take damage from the fireball, pass it and you take half damage, fail and you take full, and crit fail you take double.

They work in two different ways and carry out two different functions.

Well, I do not think it's explained like that anywhere... I kept on thinking it was just... a second dodge...

Okay so... Blocking shouldn't involve Base Save then?

Man, looking at Taijutsu... it's damn pathetic... Needs to be redone...

Hurry up and make a decision everyone.

Vote on Base Save + Strength Mod or Just use Reflex for block?

The rest are pretty much good right?

Once we got a final decision on the block, I would say approved, agreed?

Can we include the Manji formation as a special? Activated when with 3~4 people?

Since it's supposed to be academy taught according to canon, something basic would do I think. Qyp's idea of an increased awareness check sounds nice. : p

How do we know if the poll is closed when we've already voted?

Uh, I do not think I voted, and it's closed.

Well, anyways, +1 approved.

That next formation can be a Genin level thing.

Edit: Actually... there should be a "knowing your team mates" bonus of some sort for the group skills... So like, the longer you have been in a team, the better the team-based skills are... So, like, +2 Charisma for every 3 missions together, for intimidation/seduction purposes I suppose?

I added bonuses to cover for multiple shinobis providing cover. Since this is a system thing, do I make an annoucement so that people update their profiles accordingly?

Well, once others agree to approval, 3 or whatever is needed, yeah, probably do need an announcement.

Also, so how many updates to this system have we had now? 3.6 we just be at? I suppose things like this are not major...

So what major things have changed? 3.4.7 maybe?
