===Improved Cover=== | ===Improved Cover=== | ||
When attacking a target that is behind a source of cover that was designed for that very purpose, it may provide a greater cover bonus to AC and Reflex saves. In such situations, the normal bonuses may be doubled (to +4 and +2, respectively), or even tripled (to +6 and +3, respectively), depending on just how little of the attacker is exposed when they attack. Examples of improved cover are the merlons on top of a castle wall (double cover bonus), or attacking through an arrow-slit or murder hole (triple cover bonus). The GM is the final arbiter of what constitutes improved cover, and just how good that cover is. | |||
Improved cover counts the same as total cover for purposes of initiating a [[Stealth]] stance. | |||
