Uncanny Dodge
Combat, Skill
Prerequisites Perception, Wisdom
You can react to danger before instinctively and are never off-guard solely as a result of an attacker being concealed or hidden. So long as you are not staggered, slowed, or subjected to a successful Feint action against you, you reduce your off-guard value by (1/2 Tier) against attackers (rounded down, minimum none). Note that "hidden" is not the same as "undetected". Once a creature has made an attack, they are automatically detected, even if still hidden.
Tier 3 Add (1/2 Tier) rounded up, as a competence bonus to your defenses against Feint attempts.
Tier 5 You are never off-guard solely as a result of an attacker flanking you unless you are surrounded by a number of attackers exceeding (Tier).
Tier 7 You can act during surprise rounds in which you are surprised, but automatically act after those who aren't surprised.
Tier 9 You can act during surprise rounds in which you are surprised, acting in initiative normally as if you were in on the surprise.
