Battles can last for a while, but in general we tend to wear the bad guys down sooner or later.

There are a few boons and knacks that can make it pretty hard for them to hit you. You can't do that much to them, but you can still soak or block the attacks against you, and if the bad guy is attacking you, the combat monster will make them pay :)<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>Sure, you can do the same by taking the Dodge charms in Exalted, too. I just opted to start without them as an experiment.<br/>I can report it's not the best idea, just a barely survivable one.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=52106.msg2928412#msg2928412">Quote from: HairyHeretic on 11-04-2010, 17:01:34</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">In Scion someone can still aid a fight even if they're not swinging weapons.
