Kicking Levarr Burton in the nuts is a Complex Action.

QUOTE (Ryu @ Feb 11 2008, 07:54 PM)  Change linked device mode - Free Action as per combat rules. stupid me, I meant is that appropriate, due to the shifting of perceptions, does a free action suffice or does the character have to take more than that, no action to accomodate the shift? or a perception check to accomodate? I'm akin to the logic that its similar to turning the lights off it takes a while to adjust... |

QUOTE (djinni @ Feb 11 2008, 08:07 PM) how's that? the dicepool modifier only affects when you are moving around Because the benefit is largely fluff, and can be duplicated with AR and/or sensors rather easily, cheaply and without essence cost. The brain would adjust, even if you had to give it a little help, incurring (at most) the distracted penalty to perception tests (which is what happens with the AR version). "All tests while in motion," is the rule, like in a car, walking, standing on a conveyor belt, etc. It's a waste of money and essence as is. |
