Downgrade is a mechanical term. It is a regression on elements such as, but not limited to, Properties, Outcomes, Injuries or Dice.
When performing a Downgrade refer to the progression list of the element being Downgraded and move backward from your starting position once. These lists are transcluded from their pages below.
For the opposite of Downgrading, see Upgrade.
Dice can be Downgraded through the use of certain Masteries, Items or Abilities.
To Downgrade a Die you simply replace the indicated Die in the Dice Pool with the next Die as per the following progression table:
| D4 | < | D6 | < | D8 | < | D10 | < | D12 |
|---|
If you have been granted a Downgrade but all of the Die in the Pool are already D4’s, then nothing happens. A Die cannot be Downgraded below D4.
