Precise hit is an authority-status sage ability in the study of Puissance. When successfully executed, the target is struck with pinpoint accuracy, inflicting +2 additional damage.

In addition, the struck character is forced to forsake one of the items among their possessions — specifically his or her weapon, shield, helmet or armour. This item, with the exception of armour, is counted as broken and unusable by the combatant.
Worn armour isn't broken, but it suffers damage to its protective capacity; each instance of damage to a suit of armour imposes a 1-point penalty to its armour class. With each reduction, the armour is assumed to have lost some part — gorget, tassets, greaves, breast plate and so on. When the armour's AC equals 0, the whole has fallen apart and can no longer be worn.
Armour points that have been lost can be restored by an armourer, but shields, helmets or weapons are broken or split, and must be bought anew.
Magic Items
Magic weapons and armour cannot be affected by a precise hit. Therefore, when these are the last objects of the kind listed above are left, the defender is immune to the precise hit ability.
