Threat

Skill threat
3 000 at rank 1, +750 per rank (6 000 at rank 5)
Hit Points contribution
Your maximum Hit Points ÷ 3,
Threat added
Skill threat + Hit Points contribution, at most the target's current Hit Points

Example ,rank 5,2 000 maximum Hit Points

6 667 threat, at most the target's current Hit Points

Skill threat: 3 000 + 750 × (5 − 1) = 6 000

Hit Points contribution: 2 000 ÷ 3 = 667,

Threat added: 6 000 + 667 = 6 667

Rounded means to the nearest whole number. Exact halves go to the even number, so 2.5 becomes 2.
