Fortuned-Spurned template

I'm doing some fortune-spurned monsters from the Advanced Bestiary and have a couple script questions.

1.) How can I apply a -1 luck penalty on all attacks from the Cursed ability?

2.) Is there an easy way to apply the -2 penalty to all skills?

1.) How can I apply a -1 luck penalty on all attacks from the Cursed ability?

Usually penalties are not typed but the following script will work.

~Pre-Levels 10,000
~ Give a Penalty to all weapons
hero.child[Attack].field[BonLuck].value += -1

2.) Is there an easy way to apply the -2 penalty to all skills?

You can do the following:

~Pre-Levels 10,000
~ Give penalty to all skills
hero.child[AllSkills].field[Penalty].value += -2

The Pre-Levels 10,000 is info to tell you what Phase: and Priority: to set the script too.

Now I found this by looking for an existing thing in HL and looking at its script. So in this case Prayer: Foe adjustment is a good place to look as it gives a penalty to attack, damage, saves, and all skills. So just do a New(Copy) on it to view it scripts.

Actually, ShadowChamosh, there are separate PenXXXXX fields for every BonXXXXX field, so

hero.child[Attack].fied[PenLuck].value -= 1

 

[ShadowChemosh]

hero.child[Attack].fied[PenLuck].value -= 1

Oh yea thanks. Was doing it from memory and forgot their are Penalty Typed fields also.

So with that in mind Typed Penalty should not actually stack then I am pretty sure. So you would actually want to use the following macro instead:

#applypenalty[PenLuck, hero.child[Attack], -1]

So up to you. If you want them to stack use what Mathias said if you don't want Luck Penalties to stack then use the above macro.
