Dangerous terrain

By player3803179, in Rules Questions

Does Physical Resistance (e.g. from armor) prevent the damage from Dangerous Terrain?

The book only mentions (so nothing about it ignoring resistance):

Quote

Whenever a character performs a check while within Dangerous terrain, the character suffers physical damage equal to the STRIFE symbols on their kept dice

So I guess armor does prevent damage from it? If that's true, it also makes "Iron Forest Style" less good, since most enemies have at least some Physical Resistance.

Unless specifically noted, Resistances always work against DAMAGE.

If you take FATIGUE, then resistances don't apply.

Yup, same here. Physical resistance works against damage from dangerous terrain. Unlike with the bleeding condition, for example, where it is clearly mentioned that it does not.
