So I probably missed something but I can't seem to find where it says how pools should be rounded. It states on a few things like your damage track but not on others, like your melee damage. If the rules don't state whether you ought round up or down, what do you guys go with and why?

While I have no idea when you would round damage; almost every example I have seen in rounding has been 'favorable'.

The only exception I can think of off hand is 'effective essence' calculation which is always rounded down.

I mean rounding damage in the case of determining the DV of melee weapons. So a monofilament sword is Str/2+3, what happens if you have a strength of 5 is the damage dealt 5 or 6?

Learn to use search, although you shouldn't have needed it to begin with, seeing as this is still on the first page.

Thanks.

But to answer the question here anyway ...

When dealing with Strength in regards to determining damage (e.g. Str/2+3), you always round up.
