A player who is putting together a character for our new 5th edition campaign asked me can they do a long con with the con skill around a data steal in a corporate facility for example? I would assume it is an extended test using con with the interval being hours or days but what should the threshold be or would it be against the dice pool of those on the other side? In either case does this give them extra dice when the run occurs? Does it simply allow them to brush past the human element of security in the building? I like the idea of the long con but as the rules for 5th don't mention the idea at all am trying to see how it would work mechanically. Any ideas?
Thanks |
