Resolve
The Determination skill is focused on maintaining the stability of one's own physical and mental state. Different to attacks that deal damage, the Determination skill resists and helps in the recovery of normally negative physiological and psychological status effects. For a Skill that is focused upon resisting damage and avoiding attacks entirely, refer to the Aegis skill.
This skill is normally called upon when the Adventurer suffers physiological or psychological checks, the Skill-Rating directly affects how often and how quickly one recovers from such effects.
