FTFY. Indeed, the idea is that the skill itself has to specifically call it out, like with Sixth Sense. The "No-LoF" label is not enough to generate an ARO.
No, I specifically meant the first bullet point. That is, that having No LOF as a label doesn't mean you count that bullet point as triggered.
Yup that is confusing. But what makes things even more confusing is the THIRD bullet point that no one wants to acknowledge. It has a Special Skill or piece of Equipment allowing reaction to enemy actions without LoF. If a skill that has a label No-LOF (which means you can use the skill without line of fire) won't trigger this condition. What does trigger it?
Reset is not a Special Skill, it's a Common Skill. That bullet point comes into play with pieces of Equipment like a Hacking Device if an opposing trooper activates somewhere near your repeater (for example), or using Hack Transport Aircraft. Special Skills are things like Sixth Sense.
And that's why I assumed they meant the third bullet point in their previous post. Apologies for misunderstanding.
EDIT: It didn't show me the updates on the thread when I posted this. LOL Just talked to WhyRock about this on Discord. Azuset... it took a bit to figure out where the disconnect was, but here it is: It has a Special Skill or piece of Equipment allowing reaction to enemy actions without LoF. Reset is a Common Skill, not a Special.
I have a question on Reset too, even if not related about the initial question: Is the FtF really required to have the possibility to fail the Guts roll or can I do this if it is a normal roll too?
Are you asking about just being able to Reset without a ftf roll from ARO or using Reset as a short skill in the active turn? Here are the requirements for a Guts check. Requirements Several events can force a troop to make a Guts Roll: Passing one or more ARM or BTS Rolls. Failing one or more ARM or BTS Rolls, but not remaining in a Null or Immobilized state. Surviving one or more successful Attacks from weapons, types of Equipment or Hacking Programs with the Non-Lethal Trait, or that do not provoke ARM or BTS Rolls. If you are not being attacked you cant make a Guts check. If you do take a Reset in response to an attack and succeed you would avoid the attach. Therefore you would not meet the requirements of a guts roll because you are not taking an ARM or BTS roll. I would say the answer to your question is No. You may not fail a guts roll in this instance because you are not taking a guts check at all.
Check what says Reset and you'll see that winning the FtF with Reset lets you fail your Guts Roll too.
My question was about can I still use this if it's not a FtF roll like you can use SSL1 even if you're getting hit by a DTW.
If you succeed a normal roll you haven't rolled a Face to Face roll, so the answer to your question is no. Reset rules trigger Guts only on Face to Face rolls, not normal rolls.
