Grit

Well-known member
I would like to use the Grit mechanic for a new class that I am doing but would like to change the bonus from wisdom to dexterity.

I looked at the Grit class ability but I do not understand how it functions could someone explain it.
 
So Grit now bootstraps the Helper Tracker which controls this. Unfortunately the script is only setup to use one of Three abilities: Cha, Int, or Wis.

So you can still do this but its a little harder as you will have to remove the Wis Bonus and then add back the Dex Bonus just before the trackers script runs.

The below assumes you have bootstrapped the ability cGunGrit or its live on a character.

Post-Attributes/9999
Code:
[B][COLOR="Green"]~ Remove Wisdom bonus from tracker max[/COLOR][/B]
#trkmax[trkGrit] -= #attrmod[aWIS]
[B][COLOR="Green"]~ Add in Dexterity bonus to tracker max[/COLOR][/B]
#trkmax[trkGrit] += #attrmod[aDEX]
 
It recently got a bit more complicated, due to Grit, Luck, and Panache being folded into the same pool as of the ACG.

The grit class ability "cGunGrit" bootstraps the grit tracker "trkGrit" with the "Helper.Grit" tag. If nothing else happens, the Grit tracker is calculated using Wisdom, but there are already a couple class abilities that want to change that to some other attribute. Unfortunately, we can't use the standard ChargeCalc tags, since there wouldn't be a way to associate that with one of the 3 possible pools, so I created a couple helper tags "Helper.GritUseCHA" and "Helper.GritUseWIS". There isn't one for Dex yet, but I will add such for you in the next release.

Maybe just add all the abilities scores so its 100% future proof. ;)

Maybe also time to make up a new set of Tags that cover all the Attributes Generically so that it can be used for other things like Wild Empathy, Ki points, and such. Just an idea. :)
 
Those other abilities are all able to use ChargeCalc and ChargeAttr tags. It's only for abilities which are a pool of several different ones, each with their own calculation, that a special thing like this is needed.
