O que é “o limiar” ao mitigar os danos por queda?

4

O segundo ponto do Parkour Mérito diz

Cat Leap (••): Your character falls with outstanding grace. When using a Dexterity + Athletics roll to mitigate damage from falling, your character gains one automatic success. Additionally, add your Parkour rating to the threshold of damage that can be removed through this roll. Parkour will not mitigate damage from a terminal velocity fall.

Mas a seção sobre queda de dano (p97) não diz nada sobre um "limiar de dano que pode ser removido" :

If the character has the opportunity to slow his fall, for example by grabbing an awning, or to soften it, such as by twisting to land on soil rather than concrete, his player may make a Dexterity + Athletics roll, with each success on the roll reducing the damage the character takes by one point. It’s typi­cally not possible to slow or soften a fall at terminal velocity.

Então, a que se refere?

O mérito do Parkour está efetivamente inalterado desde quando foi escrito para a atualização das regras do The God-Machine Chronicle , com a exceção de que no GMC ele referenciava explicitamente as regras de queda:

Cat Leap (••): Your character falls with outstanding grace. When using a Dexterity + Athletics roll to mitigate damage from falling (see the World of Darkness Rulebook, p. 179), your character gains one automatic success. Addition­ally, add your Parkour rating to the threshold of damage that can be removed through this roll. Parkour will not mitigate damage from a terminal velocity fall.

Na página referenciada no livro principal do nWoD 1e, permite que possa haver uma quantidade máxima de dano mitigado, presumivelmente arbitrariamente determinado pelo ST:

The Storyteller may allow your character to try to break his fall by some means, perhaps by grabbing for aw­nings or twisting to strike soil rather than concrete. A single Dexterity + Athletics roll may be called for, with each success gained diminishing damage taken. There may be a limit to how much damage can be shaved, though — say, three. There’s only so much that desperate flailing and grabbing can do when someone falls from a signifi­cant height. Efforts to slow one’s fall are usually useless at terminal velocity.

Essa regra deixa STs definir uma quantidade máxima de sucessos no rolo simplesmente não existe em 2e, então a sentença não faz mais sentido, e agora o único benefício de Cat Leap , em RAW é o único sucesso automático.
