Threat

Skill threat
2 000 at rank 1, +500 per rank (4 000 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

4 667 threat, at most the target's current Hit Points

Skill threat: 2 000 + 500 × (5 − 1) = 4 000

Hit Points contribution: 2 000 ÷ 3 = 667,

Threat added: 4 000 + 667 = 4 667

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