Difficult Terrain (Condition)

Difficult Terrain

• Movement Speed halved

Properties

 Status groups: SG_Surface, SG_DifficultTerrain

Notes

• Movement speed isn't actually halved, instead the movement speed cost is doubled when in difficult terrain. A creature must spend 2 m / 7 ft of movement to move 1 m / 3 ft through an area of difficult terrain.
  • Movement speed cost is doubled both for moving, and for actions like  Brace (Melee),  Brace (Ranged) and  Prepare.
  • The movement speed cost will go back to normal as soon as you leave the surface.
• You can fly over Difficult Terrain.
• You can gain immunity to the effects of Difficult Terrain with the following: Boots of Genial Striding, Helldusk Boots, Ring of Free Action,  Freedom of Movement,  Land's Stride: Difficult Terrain,  Advanced Unarmoured Movement,  Mobile: Evade Difficult Terrain.
  • Note that a lot of surfaces also have other effects like  proning, and you will not be immune to these
