Default: prerequisite skill-2.
Prerequisite: Any combat skill; cannot exceed prerequisite
skill.
This technique lets you buy off the -2 to attack from a
kneeling or crouching posture. Roll against Low Fighting
instead of the prerequisite skill whenever you use that skill to
attack from a low posture. For instance, if you had Wrestling
at 14 and Low Fighting (Wrestling) at 13, you could grapple
from your knees at skill 13.
Low Fighting affects the -2 to defend while kneeling in the
same way. If you know it at skill-1, you’re at -1 to defend,
while at full skill, you have no penalty.
