Questions: Can you upgrade Boost/Setback Die? If so, under what circumstances?
Sources: Page 295, Core EOTE. "... Note that boost and setback dice are not normally upgraded to other die types..."
Page 11, Core EOTE. ".... Setback die are not as potent as Difficulty dice...." Boost and Setback are thematic opposites of one another, therefore one can assume the boost die is not as potent as an ability die. Therefore, Boost and Setback die ( if they can be upgraded) would be upgraded to ability and difficulty die respectively.
Comments:
- Even if you can upgrade them, I can't imagine there are too many instances where you could even utilize this rule. If you are aware that you can, could you also provide examples of when would be good times to upgrade them and how to?
- I looked at Google, FFG, Errata, and also looked at the book to see if the question was already asked, and I did not find anything related to the question.
- The way it is worded (not normally upgraded) suggests they can be. Poor wording, or intentional? No where else in the book do I see it mentioned, especially not on pages 10-11 or pages 20-22 (explains the dice and upgrading/downgrading/increase/remove)
