Two independent examples each start with one Used AD and Weakened. There is no other impairment or modifier.

  1. First example: the source says “until the start of your next turn.” Weakened ends before Refresh, so the Used AD returns automatically to Ready.
  2. Second example: the source says “through your next Refresh.” Weakened remains active while the Used AD rolls for Impaired Refresh.
  3. The illustrated result is a Miss, so the die remains Used. Weakened then ends, but grants no second Refresh and does not return that die.
  4. A Hit or Critical Hit during Impaired Refresh would return its die to Ready. A Miss is only this example’s result.

Result: Ending after an Impaired Refresh Miss leaves the die Used. Exact effect-ending timing determines which procedure happens.

  • Only Used AD roll for Impaired Refresh; Wounded dice and Magic Dice are excluded. See Narateer Dice: Impaired Refresh for the full procedure.
  • Follow every source’s actual ending. Stunned alone does not impair ordinary Refresh. Cancelling Edge does not restore automatic Refresh while another impairment remains.
