Tip: Status Conditions

Even if you "Miss" or deal 0 Damage, the target still must perform any relevant Saves. This Ability imposes no Save of its own, but other Abilities can augment or build on this one, adding Saves and effects to it.

Bonuses:

High Ground. Advantage if you are more than Spitting Distance(4u) above the target in elevation.

Penalties:

Close Combat. Disadvantage if a hostile is in Swinging Distance(1u) of you.
Concealed. Disadvantage if the target is behind at least half cover or is Prone and more than Swinging Distance(1u) away from you, laterally.
Improvised Maneuver. Disadvantage when attempting an improvised maneuver, like trying to shoot an item out of someone's hand. The GM will describe what may be possible and if there will be a Save Test for your target before you decide to roll.

Using a Shape Upgrade makes the Test for this Ability Strained and imposes a stack of Strained if you Pass the Test. Only one Shape Upgrade can be used at a time. Doing so replaces the original target with a Shape target.
