Hi everyone!

I ´m currently running a M:YZ campaign and I have had some questions that I hope someone can resolve :
1- Is there a maximum bonus, or damage value, that a weapon or armor can have? I would assume it would be +5 (or 5 damage value), but I don't see it indicated in the book...
2- If a character with the Boss role takes the "Jack of all trades" talent to receive the special ability of another role, would he no longer be considered a Boss, or would he keep both roles?
3- Do the bonus values ​​of items that have the same use stack? That is to say: if I wear the "Gas Mask" artifact with a value of 3, and I put on a Rot suit that has a value of 3, would I roll 6 dice (3+3) against the Rot? Or is only one of the two objects valid?

Thanks, regards!!

Nope. I don't think I have seen an artifact with a higher bonus than +3 and I don't think I have seen a higher weapon damage than 4, but in theory both bonus and weapon damage can be any number.

2- If a character with the Boss role takes the "Jack of all trades" talent to receive the special ability of another role, would he no longer be considered a Boss, or would he keep both roles?

He is still a boss, but rulewise, he can't increase the the Command skill or take any of the Boss specialist talents.

3- Do the bonus values ​​of items that have the same use stack? That is to say: if I wear the "Gas Mask" artifact with a value of 3, and I put on a Rot suit that has a value of 3, would I roll 6 dice (3+3) against the Rot? Or is only one of the two objects valid?

The norm is that you can only use one item per skill use, but if it makes sense you are allowed to use multiple items. On such example is that you are allowed to combine a hockey mask with a hockey helmet (and also with an an armour) since they can work together. It will be up to the GM to decide this. Regarding the Gas Mask and a rot suit, I wouldn't allow it with the artifact 'Protective Suit' since that is a hazmat suit that already covers the face, but I would allow the gasmask to be used with a helmet, or even with a scrap rot suit.

Ok, thanks for the clarifications!!
