Calling Your Shot

Let's say you are in battle with a foe and are extremely skilled with your weapon (85% or greater) and for some reason you want to cause a specirfic effect on your avevrsary. For example, the monster you are fighting can only be hurt if his head is cut off in one blow, so you want to do exactly that. Or the creature is destroyed when its heart is periced but unharmed by any other form of attack.

Asuuming the monster is aware of these weakness and taking precaustions againt them, and is in a position to resist your efforts, how difficult do these specific called shots become?

There is a precise Attack in MRQ, you take a -40% to your skill but get to pick your hit location or bypass armor. If you have a STR15+ and 2H sword or 2H Axe skill at 90%+ you can buy the Decaptiating Swing Legendary Ability for 12 hero points. If you have that and do a precise shot to the head that does at least a minor wound, it's decapitation time. Start practicing your "THere can be only one!" lines.

I don't have the rules in front of me but from memory it would be a precise attack, which makes it -40%.

Hyrum.
