Description: The key to victory is often to stay one step ahead of your opposition. Fighters know this. Through this skill, a fighter will spend time and energy trying to figure out his or her opponent's next big move. If successful, the fighter may be able to take advantage of that insight, avoiding damage (though not other effects) from the opponent's next spell, skill or special attack. If multiple attacks are going to be directed at the fighter in the same round, they may even be able to avoid more than one of them. Of course, not all damage can be avoided, and successfully predicting an area attack spell, for example, may not do much for keeping the fighter safe and alive. Fighters may choose to ignore small attacks and focus only on the opponents next, big incoming move. Syntax: use tactical foresight at [number] Any attacks that would do less than [number] percentage of the fighter's current (not max) hit points, before prots, will be ignored. To not ignore any possible attacks, use tactical foresight at 0. Valid numbers are between 0 and 30. Using this skill again will clear the previous effect upon command entry, allowing the ignored percentage to be changed.
