Description
Current Version : 1.2 now released to LIVE CHANNEL.
Passive Floor : This extention applys a Player Characters "Passive" score to be the lowest possible role that player can actively make.
meaning : if a player has a Passive Perception of 13, then any "Perception" roll that results in a 12 or lower will be reset to 13
The Passive score is 10 + attribute mod + Prof (if you have it in that skill) + Observant feat
You can also think of it as "Talking 10", to borrow a term from previous D&D editions.
why? : this is based on the idea that your worst "i try to see" roll shouldn't be any worse then your "just walking by and not even trying" score.
here is a write up, that includes an interview with Jeremy Crawford: https://thinkdm.org/2018/12/22/passive-skills/ (skip to the "Always On" section.
Currently :
- Must be a Player Character in the Combat Tracker
- only applies to Perception, Investigation, and Insight checks (can be turned on/off in Settings)
- automatilcy takes into account the Observant feat.
- Adds +5 to the Floor if the player had ADV and -5 if the playter had DIS
The following improvements are being considered:
- scan for any Effects that modiify the skill check
- make this work for NPC's (must have the skill listed on npc's Skills line)
- expand the list of Skills that the Floor applies to.
