Yeah if EL*5 (if I recall now) is best gear.<br>
Then EL mod for 0 gear<br>
EL*1 for 1 line <br>
EL*2 for safety line, spikes<br>
EL*3 Safety with harness?<br>
EL*4 3 but with hand holds.<br>
I dunno..<br>
Shifting gear is fine wiht Teamster skill.<br>
But if you fall your balanc eis off.<br>
So factor for 0 gear at base line compared to<br>
a 50 pound backback for losing balance is a diff factor.<br>
But how to quantity it guess depends on the diff factor of climb or<br>
up to GM?<br><br>

Without the gear an expert could climb, with the gear a newbie could also
climb, retrying instead of falling when failing.<br><br>

<dd>Been decades since used climbing rules. With folks with magic
and <br>
<dd>flying why bother.<br>
<dd>But used it for the game this week. Only one npc failed 30%
twice.<br>
<dd>But i figure they did a safety rope and harness plus invisible fae
helped him.<br><br>
<dd>But has anyone elaborated n these rules more specifically to<br>
<dd>safety ropes, gear shifting/weights, rock slides and harness
gear?<br><br>
<dd>I just fudged used the EL*5 factors for best gear or worst gear.<br>
<dd>But its generic.<br><br>
<dd>With 80, 60 and 30% the 3 30%sers made it with one
exception.<br><br>
<dd>Any actual cliff climbers who can share expertise on this?<br><br>
