Stacking

Healing Skill Checks

When combined with Bite the Bullet, Deadline will apply its Penalty-Reduction effect to the new baseline value defined by Bite the Bullet's current Tier.

This results in the following Penalty percentages for Failed Healing Skill Checks:

Perk Tier	Baseline Penalty (Bite the Bullet)	Penalty-Reduction (Deadline)	Calculation	Resulting Penalty
Tier 0	10 %	50 %	10 % × (1 - 0.5)	5 %
Tier I	3 %		3 % × (1 - 0.5)	1.5 %
Tier II	2 %		2 % × (1 - 0.5)	1 %
Tier III	1 %		1 % × (1 - 0.5)	0.5 %
