Ok so, going by what you've told me you keep getting the cummulative -2 OCV modifier on each consecutive block regardless who you are blocking for, be that yourself or someone else. That much was already clear.
Next thing I learned from your explanation is that when you block for others you only get the -2 OCV for blocking for another once regardless of the amound of blocks you make for others (be that one or more). This is new for me as I thought you'd get the -2 OCV when blocking for others each time you attempt to block for another. (in the example of blocking for someone else 3 times in a row you'd do so at -2 plus -4 plus -4, thus the last attempt would be made at your starting OCV -10)
I'll give you another example fight (please bear with me but I really want to get this right)
Hero A starts with 20 OCV to block. He blocks for himself at -0 (20), he then proceeds to block for Hero B to his left at -2 to block for other and another -2 for consecutive block (leaving a total of 16 OCV). Then he blocks another strike aimed at Hero B. He only gets a -2 for consecutive block but not the -2 to block for other because he already paid that once (total OCV is now 14).
After that he blocks for himself again and does so with 12 OCV. If he would now block for someone else again, be that Hero B to his left or Hero C to his right he would only get a -2 from consecutive block and not an aditional -2 to block for other because he already paid that once in this chain of blocks right?
