Coriolis: Success

Thu 28 Dec 2023, 19:45

0 Six: fails you.
1-2 succeed you limited success.
3+ succeed critical.
Is this correct?

Yes, although some skills (like melee) allows you to "buy" bonus effects with extra sixes, but normally it is one six is that you succeed just barely and three or more sixes you get a critical success.

Sorry. I expressed myself wrongly. My question was misplaced, I apologize.
Is the number of successes 1-2 limitsed success? From 0 you have no successes. From 1, do you have success? 2+ 6 succeed critical? Or from 1-2 success? 3+ 6 succeed critical? In short: is the roll from 1, 2, limitied?

Yes, with no sixes rolled you got a failure, one or two sixes rolled means limited success and three or more success you got a critical success. Certain combat skills have some bonus effects that you can "buy" by expending any extra sixes you rolled if you so chooses.

You would like to say, that it doesn't change whether 1 or 2 succession is the same?

In a normal skill roll, no. Combat skills work a bit different. In Melee for example you choose a bonus effect with the extra sixes you rolled, so if you rolled two sixes, the first one indicates a success and with the second one you can choose "Disarm" as a bonus effect.

I usually reflect a second success by reducing the drawbacks of the limited success. So 0 success = Fail or Succeed at high cost, 1 success = Succeed at cost, 2 successes = Succeed at cost, but only minor drawback and 3+ successes = complete success, no drawback at all.
