I was watching a bat rep and the player playing harliquins was using the suit of hidden knives and -1 modifiers to generate mortal wounds. Now there is no rule that I can find that says you stop at a roll of 1... and the wording on the relic is a roll of 1 the effect happens..... so modifiers wouldn’t increase the amount of mortal wounds, just change the number needed to get them. Right?

Also applies to plasma guns overcharging. I don’t see it say anywhere the roll is 1 or less. Just have to roll a 1

Q: Can a dice roll ever be modified to less than 1?
A: No. If, after all modifiers have been applied, a dice roll would be less than 1, count that result as a 1.

Cool, that works. Thanks
