+STR and +DEX Don't add to damage correct?


#1

Coming from traditional DnD here, so I hope this question makes sense. I don’t think STR adds to melee damage, just like DEX doesn’t add to ranged damage right? All of that would just be wrapped into weapon effort? TY!


#2

Yep! Damage normally comes from just the effort and which effort would depend on what you’re using to damage the enemy.

Thanks brother! That’s what I thought it was, just a mental change on my part but I’m really loving the simplicity. The fact that I even had to ask that question reminds me that it’s one more rule that isn’t needed, and streamlines ICRPG.


#4

Absolutely! And ICRPG is great and you can pick it up pretty quick. Makes jumping into games super simple :smiley:

Indeed, if you want your warrior to hit harder with that polearm, you should throw some points into weapon effort or get loot that augments it!
