Overview
The core game system that has been detailed is very simple, but worth reiterating briefly here:
- You reduce the attribute being tested by 1 point.
- You roll a single D6.
- If you roll equal or below the attribute rating, you pass.
Because using attributes wears them down, players will generally want to avoid rolling dice as much as possible! However, sometimes they need to get things done, and will have to pass attribute tests to get anywhere!
PvE actions
PvE is a term from multi player online roleplaying games (MMORPGs), meaning "Player vs Environment". In Scum a PvE action is any action that doesn't directly target or affect another player. This can include targeting or interacting with NPCs, or with the physical environment, or just testing for purely internal effects.
The most common PvE attribute test is the build up, detailed more in the Core Rules. Essentially a build-up is an action that increases your own attributes - players who want to master the game would do well to master the art of good build-ups!
