 If a character wanted to move through ground that included a tile that was considered Thicket on a Steep Slope, this would increase the cost of moving through that tile by 5. The character would have to make a Hard Strength check with a -6 penalty to navigate any path that included it. They succeed by 5, reducing all penalties by 2 points. This means that the cost for moving through the area of Thicket and Steep Slope 2 has dropped from 4 points to 2.

-Difficult Terrain refers to anything that can slow a character down simply by moving through it, but is unlikely to cause them to lose their balance in the same way that [[Terrain Features(Combat)#Poor Footing|Poor Footing]] is.
+Difficult Terrain refers to anything that can slow a character down simply by moving through it, but is unlikely to cause them to lose their balance in the same way that [[Terrain_Features_(Combat)#Poor_Footing|Poor Footing]] is.
 When a character moves through Difficult Terrain, they increase cost in Move Points of moving through that terrain. For example, moving through open terrain costs 1 Move Point per 5 feet. Moving up a steep, lightly wooded hill would cost an additional 2 points per 5 feet for a total of 3 Move Points per tile.
