That can work yes.

And I failed my 3rd roll :(


Oh, I was answering Jo'Ren.

As to Triumphs, traditionally even if you fail you get to activate the effects of the Triumph. Things like noticing something important in the ongoing scene, etc. You can't activate a Triumph to crit if you don't hit, though.

Posh Puppy would have to give you the ultimate ruling on whether the Triumph part can be triggered in his particular case on a failed roll.

Per the rules of the event it counts as Two successes due to the Triumph effect.

You failed so bad, you did good. Maybe you divided by 0 and got an answer... I blame the Force.

So just to be sure, the following 2 rolls means I succeedded?

D1 WtoK rolls:

#1:
Welcome to Korriban, LM, Lightssaber (Brawn), setback die from reputation: 2eA+1eP+2eD+1eS 2 successes, 1 threat
ImageImageImageImageImageImage

#2:
Welcome to Korriban, LM, Resilience (Brawn), setback die from reputation: 2eA+1eP+2eD+1eS 2 failures, 1 advantage, 1 Triumph
ImageImageImageImageImageImage

Sorry for not having to spoon feed me :(

I got no successes but two advantage on one of my Test your Might rolls. Does that count for the purposes of making it to the final roll?

(Sorry, I'm not yet familiar with what counts as a successful roll :))

Any roll that garners no successes in the positive is technically a failure.

In the case of that roll you didn't succeed but you got some small benefit that is not success.

Because of the Triumph yes. This is just due to the rules of this event but technically it's a fail but the Triumph effect always goes off.

You fell down a hill right into the Academy luckily or something silly like that. You failed your way to victory.

So in the Museum event. If I have 'Influence' and I roll a Force die do I automatically pass the roll if I choose to use the Force point I collected on the roll?

I got dark side, but if it was light then I could soothe them into doing right? That's the basic concept?

That is the basic concept though it would cost you a Destiny point to use Light side.

Will the Twi'lek special ability of Desert Dwellers be in any way helpful for the mandatory event? It supposedly reduces Setback dice due to environmental condition.

Do concealing robes help for Stealth rolls in the event?

Also, groups cannot impress for Reputation, right?

If you go in a group for Welcome to Korriban, then no but you probably won't get lost.

So a boost die for a specific roll (like Stealth, Survival?), to any one roll or to all three event rolls? Sorry if I ask redundant questions.

If we suffered strain during the welcome event, can we roll Cool (Presence) or Discipline (Willpower) after the event to recover strain, per the strain recovery post event rules?

Welcome to Korriban.

Does using Seek count as one of your 3 rolls, or is it an additional beneficial roll?
