Blessings on Items like Boom Crown

[Sambafreak13]

Hi All!

Boomcrown states for my combat check I can bury to roll a number of d8s (or d12s vs undead) equal to the ad#. Can I bless the check to add another die? Similarly may I play a spell like Corrosion which adds a die to any check against an undead bane? I am so used to adding dice to whatever the base skill (arcane, str/melee etc) being used was, I wasn't sure how to handle an item like this that uses no base skill.

thanks

Hi Mike!

Per the Rules: Bless sidebar (p. 12):

"If your check doesn't use a skill because a power specifies the type of die to use, blessing the check adds another die of that type."

So blessing a check while using the Boomcrown would add another d8 (or d12 vs undead).

I can't remember where to find Corrosion to check. Since the Boomcrown is an Item you may also play a Spell on the same check. In this case the Boomcrown defines the dice to use (instead of using a skill) and the spell just adds another die of the type specified (like a blessing).

Remember to add the AD # as a static bonus with the Boomcrown as well!

Hope this helps!

Super helpful, thanks you! Sounds like we did it right.

Here is Corrosion: https://pacg.fandom.com/wiki/Corrosion

Since the monster was undead this gave us an additional d12 :)

Thanks again!
