Frenzy, Dauntless and Horns in LRB 5.0+

I could swear this question has been answered, but my search-fu is failing me at the moment and I have 2 questions:

If I have Frenzy and Horns and I blitz, I gain +1 ST on both hits correct?

If I have Horns and Dauntless and I blitz, do I role for Dauntless first and then add in Horns or do I had Horns first and then figure out Dauntless (if its needed at that point)?

AFAIK:
1. Yes, you get the bonus. All that horns requires is that you're making a blitz action.
2. The skill description for dauntless specifically mentions adding in modifiers before rolling. By modifiers, they mean horns :wink:

Thanks Plasmoid. I did see that modifiers, and I assumed that is what it meant, but I just wanted to make sure.

For Frenzy any skills that applied for the first hit apply to the second, in this case Horns, would also apply to Juggernaut etc

and plasmoid is correct the Dauntless and Horns combo doesn't combine like it did pre LRB5, you add horns before dauntless now

about point 1: in LRB5, you're required to move at least 1 square before the block as well (standing up doesn't count) -- it's in the experimental LRB6 rules you only have to declare a blitz action

Yep - and the original poster asked about LRB5+, as far as I can tell from the heading anyway :)
