Wait, what does RES do again? I know that it's flat damage reduction, but does it do anything else that isn't listed in the OP?It could do stuff in theory and could be used to resist 'save-or-suffer' effects. It's just that nobody's bothered to target it.
Seeing as CON is needed to resist certain "save-or-suffer" effects and can be used as an attacking stat, DEX also can cover dodging and damage reduction via Perks or Passives, INT can be used for resisting "save-or-suffer" effects along with inflicting debuffs and status effects, STR is also used for "save-or-suffer" effects, and SYN handles some kinds of buffs as well.
I'm more interested in how grid-based combat is usually handled since I couldn't find any rules in this thread on range assignments, melee compensation or movement rules for it.That's because, aside PN's plot which used it for some unfathomable reason, there isn't any. This game isn't meant to be played with grid-style combat. >_>
