Hey there, so could someone help me out? our group has been having some troubles understanding 2 things when it comes to anima and defense in combat. if someone who knows the rules well enough could help me understand and would possibly give me examples, i could show this to my group and everything would be fixed. i would appreciate this so much!
first we’ll cover the easy one, one of our players has access to creature powers thanks to an elan gift, and he has now chosen to get the Physical Armor for AT6, now this doesn't count the same as having additional layers correct? so would wearing armor then count for additional layers? i dont believe so this just needs clarification.
now for the more difficult one, magical shields. such as Royal Shield. the kind you cast onto a person. we need lots of help on how those work, currently we are treating them as full body shields that count as 0AT and are damaged instead of the player when they are hit.
how far off are we? and if someone could help me understand it better, because currently theyre acting as LP buffs, and seem a little over powered since our wizard has the zeon to supply everyone the entire combat.
an example scenario might help?
thank you very much for taking the time to help me out, im trying to do the best i can at helping our current GM from being driven mad by all this information.
and your efforts are very much appreciated whenever you help out in making our experience better.
