Distracting Shot Technique
Trigger:
When you attack with a ranged weapon
Cost:
2 stamina
Defense:
Academics save negates
Duration:
Until the start of your next turn
The target gets a DC 19 Academics save.
Fail:
The target is distracted by you until the start of your next turn.
Distracted:
(All your allies gain partial concealment from all the target’s senses.
The target is off guard (rolls to hit them have advantage) against attacks from creatures that are not distracting it.
The target cannot take attacks of opportunity against creatures that are not distracting it.
Your allies may situationally get advantage on certain tests of skill against the target.
If you hide, or are disabled (cannot act) the target stops being distracted.)
Pass:
The target is unaffected.
You cannot use other techniques with this attack.
(This ability uses the rare academics save because the way to avoid being distracted by it is to recognize or know what it is trying to do and control yourself in the moment to ignore it. It is often performed by firing a firework or other loud and noticeable ammunition.)
