| Optional |
- The Player may choose to make their Saving Rolls using either their ARM or BTS Attribute, regardless of what is indicated by the Weapon or piece of Equipment used to attack them. (See FAQs & Errata. Ammunition and Traits that target one Attribute will not work if the other Attribute is chosen.)
- This Special Skill does not apply against Comms Attacks.
Bioimmunity and Criticals
Troopers with this Special Skill will apply the Critical, making an additional Saving Roll using the chosen Attribute.
A Trooper suffers a DA+Shock impact and the Saving Roll must be made with the BTS Attribute. Thanks to the Trooper’s Bioimmunity, the Trooper may choose to make both Saving Rolls using their ARM Attribute, if it was advantageous to them.
FAQs & Errata
Q: How does Bioimmunity interact with Ammunition and Traits that reduce the Saving Roll Attribute, for example AP or E/M Ammunition, or ARM=0?
A: AP Ammunition is tied to the Saving Roll Attribute listed in a weapon’s profile. If Bioimmunity is used to make the Saving Roll against a different Attribute, that Attribute will not be halved. In the same way, if Bioimmunity is used against a hit by E/M Ammunition to make the Saving Rolls against ARM, the ARM value will not be halved. The ARM=0 Trait only applies if the Saving Roll is made against the ARM Attribute, and vice-versa for the BTS=0 Trait.
