For 1 round intervals afflictions, when do you roll the first new saving throw?

51 to 52 of 52 << first < prev | 1 | 2 | next > last >>

Repeating the current stage on a successful save vs virulent probably makes the most sense. If a successful save simply forced the second one immediately, it would effectively increase the fail and crit fail chance within the same amount of time. I think the intent is simply to make lowering the stage much more difficult without actually increasing the likelihood of failing and increasing the stage.

Agreed, If they wanted to increase the likelyhood of failing they could've just said to roll twice keep lowest.
