Invisible attacks...

[NuSoardGraphite]

What are the game effects of someone trying to Block or Missile Deflect an attack that is invisible?

 

Are the penalties the same as attacking an invisible opponent?

 

Also, what are the bonuses gained from using an invisible attack? Merely a Surprise Move bonus, or are the bonuses the same (or similar to) defending against an invisible attacker?

 

Note: this is in context to a visible attacker using an invisible attack. (such as an attack with the Invisible Power Effects advantage)

[Steve Long]

The answer in all these situations is: it’s a situational thing, and thus up to the GM. There are undoubtedly plenty of instances where using an attack with Invisible Power Effects would best be adjudicated using the rules for Invisible characters or Surprised. In other situations, the GM might want to reduce or eliminate those bonuses.
