i’ll jump in and quote myself from a previous bug report (unrelated to the OP), because i do also think the combat log should be looked at to actually do something for the player :p
As it is now, it is somewhat useless and clutter the UI, but the collapsed state makes it discrete enough.

Also, on that note of “Combat Log”, i would *love* a better logging format. As examples :

<Attacker> [AtkType:swings|shoots] at <Target> and [AtkResult:misses!|hits <BodyPart> for <ArmorDamage> and <HealthDamage>!]
or
<Attacker> uses <attack skill> on <Target> and [AtkResult:misses!|hits <BodyPart> for <ArmorDamage> and <HealthDamage>!]

(the 2 handed axe needs a specific case to reflect the “double hit” Head+Torso)
– If Target dies, extra line “<Target> was killed by <Attacker>!”
– If Target is wounded, extra line “<Target> suffers <Wound> from <Attacker>’s attack!”
– <Target>’s [Head|Torso]’s armor is shredded by <Attacker>’s attack!
Etc.

Cheers :)

(disregard the part on 2H Axe/adjust to how it works)

I may have misread the 2 Handed Axe too, it was just in case.

The important thing here is about the combat log lines format, which right now is really really not cool/useful :p
(and the “reset to top” bug from UI update patch with each new log line)

[Cwell]

yea, Combat log should always show the last lines added, being collapsed (2 lines visible) or not.
It stopped working “correctly” with the new UI patch sometime ago.

I think Pathfinder is aimed at lowering both AP and Fatigue from terrain effects (up/down hills, forest / swamps, etc.), not to counter impairments from other sources (traits, wounds, etc.).
So yes, it would be applied before the Injury’s effect ;)

Name : “Dead Men Hunting”
Banner : skeletal soldier(s) equipped with a sword&board or any weapon really

The fluff behind it would be a mercenary company using charcoal and white chalk to masquerade as skeletal warriors / intimidate fools (on the face + bony-like claws on hands/gloves).

Cheers!

Not the 1st time i see this type of “Invincible Ninja Swordmaster”.
I have to admit, this should not be allowed to happen. Hope the upcoming Perk Tree revision will address that (make that type of “tank” similar in defences as the sword&board type)
Seeing heavily armoured Mercs, carrying 4 weapons and a Shield, being ballerina dancers is just … not fitting. ;)
