First Aid
« on: April 21, 2010, 02:47:05 AM »
How does the difficulty get set for the First Aid trapping of Scholarship get set?  I originally assumed just having scholarship was enough to give first aid, and it would be an automatic effect that didn't need a roll, because I didn't see anything in YS suggested I would need one.  But then on the OW stat block for EMT's, there is a stunt to give +2 to efforts to administer first aid.

That's actually answered in the book: There's no roll and no difficulty under normal circumstances. When under fire or otherwise really stressed out there is both a roll and a difficulty equal to the Stress the consequence reduced. See p. 220. So, they basically never fail First Aid rolls, even under fire.
