Contact Agent (Attack)

-30%

Your attack must touch bare skin or porous clothing to have any effect at all. DR always stops it.

This enhancement is intended for Afflictions, and for Innate Attacks that inflict fatigue or toxic damage. Taken with Aura (p. 102), it can represent a “contagious” attack that spreads via skin contact.

Exception: If the attack also has Area Effect (p. 102) or Cone (p. 103), Contact Agent lets it ignore all DR. Only targets with the Sealed advantage (p. 82) are immune. This powerful ability converts Contact Agent into a +150% enhancement when combined with Area Effect or Cone!

This is a “penetration modifier”; you cannot combine it with other penetration modifiers, such as Follow-Up (p. 105).
