Crafter's Instinct
A trained eye catches a weapon's flaw mid-shot, turning a firearm misfire into an ordinary miss or a botched shot into weak but real damage.
Access You are from Dongun Hold or Alkenstar.
Frequency once per day
Trigger You misfire with a firearm or you roll a failure on a Strike with a ranged weapon.
You sense a minor flaw in the weapon as you fire it, and quickly adjust your aim on the fly to avoid the flaw. If the triggering Strike was a misfire, you get a normal failure instead. If the triggering Strike was a failure, it becomes a glancing blow that deals minimum damage for the Strike (adding any bonuses as normal but getting a result of 1 for all damage dice that would be rolled on a success). The glancing blow does not apply other effects that would normally happen only on a hit.
