Multiple Points of Contact

A valid strike that hits multiple unique Hit Locations at the same time will count as a hit to each location struck (except where Torso Priority would take effect). Each point of contact must meet the requirements for a valid strike.

  • For example, a Trident that strikes both of Phineas’ legs with a single stab will count as a hit to each leg.

A single weapon cannot strike the same Hit Location more than once per attack, regardless of how many individual points of contact it makes.

  • For example, a Trident that strikes Phieneas’ right leg with all three “points” of the Trident will only count as a single hit.
