Forensics rules a keen eye hidden details in the world around you. Scattered through the environment are subtle clues left behind by events others may have tried to hide or simply didn't think to cover. If there's something worth investigating that falls outside the domain of another skill, Forensics is probably the answer.
Outside of map exploration and events, clues are produced from PvP conflict or violence of some kind, and that's largely the point of the skill: to give players a way to pursue accountability in game, rather than relying on staff to adjudicate what happened after the fact.
Getting Started
You can start by '[Ability Investigate'
The easiest methods of gaining skill early on is through blood splatters, which will stop producing skill chance at 25%, from there keep an eye out for bullet holes, Graffiti, and sabotaged Logistics.
Note that most of those are produced from PvP Conflict of some kind, and that's somewhat the point of the skill - to provide countermeasures to pursue things in game rather than petition staff for evidence.
Tips
- Your total forensics skill also lets you gleam additional insights on a person when using the [look on them, additionally are able to potentially get additional descriptors when inspecting other Characters using Disguises and Concealment.
WARNING: Sharing screenshots of forensic readouts with other players, in Discord, voice, or in party chat, is considered metagaming and against Server Rules. Doing so will zero the offending character's Forensic skill. Unreliable narration is a part of compelling roleplay, and you will need to prove or disprove your assessments in game, not by sharing screenshots to circumvent roleplaying trust.
