Recovery

[Wyld]

My apologies if this seems like a stupid question, but I couldn't find any direct answer in the rulebook or in the rules FAQ.

 

Let's say we have a SPD 6 character with REC 10, who takes a recovery in segment 2. He is at half DCV. At the end of segment 2, he gets back 10 STUN and 10 END. Then the character is attacked in segment 3. Does he have his normal DCV, or is it still halved?

 

Essentially I am asking, if a character takes a recovery, does he remain at 1/2 DCV until his next action?

Yes; the effects of modifiers that alter CV remain in place until the character’s next Phase. However, in Segments after the Phase in which he takes his Recovery, a character has the possibility of Aborting to a defensive action, which would restore his DCV to full (and possibly provide DCV bonuses).
