Always remember this formula, if doing any attempts<strong>"Difficulty + Attribute + Skill + Character Status =" </strong>only 4 things to remember. and in order. always remember this.<br/><br/>Step 1. Since the Difficulty is Average, (looking up the chart in the rules section; average is 8) add the value of average to the equation.<br/><br/>8 +<br/><br/>Now we go look at your attribute, Since Spotting something is related to Wisdom (see Skill list for attribute relations) then we will use your wisdom which is 33<br/>This chart is in the rules section also, since your attribute is 33, it falls in the category of (Stat Value  01 to 40) which is -1. so we add that to the equation.<br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Stat Value  01 to 40      -1<br/>Stat Value  41 to 80      -2<br/>Stat Value  81 to 100    -3</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>8 + (-1)<br/><br/>Now we go to the next variable of the equation, The Skill. Since your character didn't choose or have Spot as an active skill on either, Professional, Regular, or Sparetime. then you don't have anything for it, which results in an automatic 0. lets add that to the equation.<br/><br/><strong>8 + (-1) + (0)</strong><br/><br/>Okay, on to the next Variable. You Character Status. Reference the chart regarding that status on the rule section. Since you are well rested, this gives you a 0 value also, which if we add to the equation will be like this<br/><br/><strong>8 + (-1) + (0) + (0) =</strong><br/><br/>Now we got the equation done. Its time to solve it:<br/><br/><strong>8 + (-1) + (0) + (0) = 7</strong><br/><br/>once you have solved the equation you get the value needed to roll. in this case 7. You will roll one (1d10) ten sided dice. and you need to get a 7, an 8, a 9, or a 10 to be successful. getting 6 and below means a failure. so you have a 40% chance to be succesful since you need only one of 4 numbers to succed while 60 percent chance of failing for getting one of 6 numbers out of ten.<br/><br/>Let me give you yet another example with Ricky as an example.--------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Step 1. Since the Difficulty is Average, (looking up the chart in the rules section; average is 8) add the value of average to the equation.<br/><br/>8 +<br/><br/>Now we go look at his attribute, Since Spotting something is related to Wisdom (see Skill list for attribute relations) then we will use his wisdom which is 98<br/>This chart is in the rules section also, since his attribute is 98, it falls in the category of (Stat Value  81 to 100) which is -3. so we add that to the equation.<br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Stat Value  01 to 40      -1<br/>Stat Value  41 to 80      -2<br/>Stat Value  81 to 100    -3</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>8 + (-3)<br/><br/>Now we go to the next variable of the equation, The Skill. Ricky has set Spot as skill, more specifically in the regular section which is an 81 value. That is his Spot statistics, which by following the chart again, it falls in the category of (Stat Value  81 to 100) which is -3. so we add that to the equation.<br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Stat Value  01 to 40      -1<br/>Stat Value  41 to 80      -2<br/>Stat Value  81 to 100    -3</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><strong>8 + (-3) + (-3)</strong><br/><br/>Okay, on to the next Variable. His Character Status. Reference the chart regarding that status on the rule section. Since he is in top notch form, this gives him a -1 value, which if we add to the equation will be like this.<br/><br/><strong>8 + (-3) + (-3) + (-1) =</strong><br/><br/>Now we got the equation done. Its time to solve it:<br/><br/><strong>8 + (-3) + (-3) + (-1) = 1</strong><br/><br/>once he has solved the equation and gets the value needed to roll. in this case 1. He will roll one (1d10) ten sided dice. and he will need to get a 1, a 2, a 3, a 4,a 5, a 6, a 7, an 8, a 9, or a 10 to be successful. getting 0 (which is impossible since there is no dice that gives out a 0 value) and below means a failure. so  he has a 100% chance of success.<br/><br/>so if by example he isnt in top notch form only in well rested form, the equation will go like this. since well rested is only 0.<br/><br/><strong>8 + (-3) + (-3) + (0) = 2</strong><br/><br/>He will roll one (1d10) ten sided dice. and he will need to get a 2, a 3, a 4,a 5, a 6, a 7, an 8, a 9, or a 10 (2 and above result) to be successful. getting 1 (which is impossible since there is no dice that gives out a 0 value) and below means a failure. so  he has a 90% chance of success. and a 10% chance of failure since by rolling a 1 he would fail.
