steriaca Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 I have a qestion. Dose martial arts increse weapon damage (HKA)? For exampel, if a martial art move has +4 DCs and a weapon doss 5 D6 HKA is the total damage then 9 D6? Also do you include the Str bonus as well? Depends on the edition, if your playing Heroic or Superheroic, amongst others. In 6ed, yes. The based damage of the weapon, incresed by maneuver damage and strength bonus. In Heroic campaigns, this damage can't go over twice the base DC of the weapon, but that is out the window in a Superheroic campaign. Earlier editions are different.

The answer to your question is "Yes", per 6E1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netzilla Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 I hawe a qestion dos martial arts increse weapon damegde (HKA), For exempel if a martial art move has +4 DCs and a weapon doss 5 D6 HKA is the total dmg then 9 D6, Allso do you iclude the Str bonus as well Yes, with a few caveats: 1) your have to have purchased the appropriate Weapon Element for your martial art. 2) Killing Attacks are 3 Damage Classes per die. Normal attacks are 1 DC per die. 3) Strength will increase the damage of your HKA and then your MA DCs will be added. So, if your character has a 20 STR and a 2d6 HKA sword he'll do 2d6 + 4 DCs = 3d6+1 HKA after STR is added. If he also has Offensive Strike for another 4 DCs, his damage will increase to 4 1/2d6 HKA. Note: The above is all assuming 6e is what is being discussed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasha Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Depends on the edition, if your playing Heroic or Superheroic, amongst others. In 6ed, yes.

In Heroic campaigns, this damage can't go over twice the base DC of the weapon, but that is out the window in a Superheroic campaign. Earlier editions are different. In 6e real weapons cannot do more damage than double their base DC. "Real Weapon" is a -1/4 limitation that can be taken on weapons. Including ones in Champions.
