Post by: Dirich on May 29, 2022, 11:47:11 AM
I have a few doubts and I'd like clarification on the correct way to handle elemental area attacks.

Note that the text does not say that they are *resolved* as melee attacks - just that they are *handled* just like melee attacks.

For instance, I would not allow the Parry manoeuver (nor Full Parry or Multiple Parry) to be effective against elemental attacks, as it is specifically listed as applying against Melee attacks. I would allow Dodge, since it is specified as being effective against "one attack".
