Low Light & Darkness Buff & Penalties

[Reusririasuir 0]

One thing I noticed while reading through the guides, is that Low Light and Darkness are treated the same but really, darkness should present a greater visibility penalty. -1 for Low Light seems right, but Darkness should be -2 or maybe even -3 depending on how it plays in testing.

 

By the same logic Sneak and Hide should grant Low Light +2 stealth as it does now, and Darkness a +3 or +4.

No way. Sorry, but I absolutely hate this idea. Not that it is bad. That could be good for later floors though, such as floor 33 could be classified as a pitch black floor and could have the negative three to all dices penalty as you said. Would you agree?

 

And I also believe night vision should be the thing that helps against that penalty.

Floor 10 is in darkness and its near impossible to see anything. All rolls on floor 10 suffer -1 If you do not have night vision :)

It just seems strange to only have the one visibility penalty.

I think many users would complain if you had -3 to all dice rolls as a darkness penalty, as it stands, its -1 to all dice rolls  unless otherwise stated on floors/caves/in rooms.

Would that happen to include CD rolls for combat healing?

All dice suffer a penalty at all times.

what about critical? from what I remember critical rolls can't be modified, then if it's a floor condition it still is applied?

Criticals are something that always hits, it can't be stopped by Dice roll counters.

Criticals always hit for their damage wise. However if you have a critical of 9 and something has i unno evasion of 8 it would miss

But nothing has that sort of evasion so no worries there ;)
