Deflect Missiles

Файл:Action Monk DeflectMissile.png

Deflect Missiles is a Reaction gained by Monk at Level 3. Deflect Missiles allows the Monk to reduce incoming damage from ranged weapon attacks and optionally return the projectile.

Description

Use your reaction to reduce the damage from a ranged weapon attack by 1d10 + your Dexterity Modifier + your monk level. If the damage is reduced to 0, you use a Ki Point to Deflect the Missile.

Notes

• You can only reduce damage from the attack - any additional effects can't be negated.
  • Additional effect here means everything that is no damage (e.g. a condition).
• Potential bugs/Needs testing: Seems to behave weirdly against certain weapons
  • Deflect Missiles does not trigger at all against the Giantbreaker on from a Dwarf Warlock (previously Barbarian).
  • Against dual wielding Hand Crossbows the first attack will always hit, the second attack can be reduced by Deflect Missiles, but Deflect Missiles (Return) never triggers.
