Ally redirect vs true strije

Post by Tommy Kauffman »

Say I'm standing next to my buddy who is hit with a true strike 50. I like my buddy and have your own guardian angel. Can I Ally redirect to take his hit, or does that count as a defense to negate the attack?

True disallows the use of game mechanics in response to an attack, so you cannot Redirect attacks that are True.

A good rule of thumb is that if it requires you to say something (ie, Parry, Dodge, Redirect, No Effect, etc) then you can't use it against a True attack. This pretty much just leaves pure Resilience as your only hope.
