Targeted Attacks

When making attacks or casting spells with the Targeting trait, attackers can choose to target a specific part of the body. This can inflict special conditions, like blinding or slowing the target, but makes the attack harder to hit.

Creatures gain a bonus to their Reflex saves based on the part of the body being targeted. Attacks with a weapon or spell with the Precision trait reduce this bonus by 2. Some creatures have special body parts that can be targeted, like a dragon's wings or Losungi's venom fangs. But there are some common weak points on most sapient creatures:

  • Head +6 to Reflex saves. If hit the creature is dazed 2.
  • Arms +3 to Reflex saves. If hit the creature has -2 penalty to attacks and actions with that arm next turn
  • Legs +3 to Reflex saves. If hit the creature has -1 tile move speed next turn
  • Eyes +10 to Reflex saves. If hit the creature is blinded next turn
On a critical success the penalty is doubled. Creatures wearing armor also have a weak point that can be hit to bypass the armors resistances
