Area Confusion

Post by SpaceMonkey »

Apologies for my brain :oops: but could someone just clear up my understanding of the Area enhancements please?

I understand Burst and Cone, but with Line and Arc do they follow standard rules (roll to hit) or Burst/Cone rules (no roll to hit, targets just make Agility rolls to avoid)?

Thanks!

I had assumed that since it was listed under Area (and in between Burst and Cone), all Areas are the same when it comes to the attack roll (i.e., rolling vs. Defense or Athletics/Acrobatics to avoid). Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Lines and Arcs you need to roll to hit. To simplify things, just roll to hit one time, and all enemies make separate defense rolls against it. Against minions, you just either hit them all or miss them all based on their static Defense value.
