Effect of damage

Let’s assume a character with:

Str 8 (+0)
Dex 8 (+0)
End 6

If the character takes 8 damage (not armor), he reduce his END by 6 and there are 2 points that he takes off (let’s say) his dex.

Because he took 2pts of damage on his dex, does he suffer a -1 DM to all his dex rolls as he is now considered to have a DEX of 6?

Of with regards of damage, the End of 6 + Dex of 8 are essentially the same as having 14 hit points?

Thanks

Well his Dex would still be a +0 because 6-8 is a +0 DM. But if he instead took 9 points of damage and his dex was reduced to 5, then it would be a -1 DM.
 
um he'd be unconscious from 1 stat to zero, no? And if he needs to make a dex check while falling, I'd say he hits his head on the corner of the desk on the way down (for more damage!) medic!!!

End + 1 other Stat.

Traveller SRD said:
Damage is applied initially to the target’s Endurance. If a target is reduced to Endurance 0, then further damage is subtracted from the target’s Strength or Dexterity. If either Strength or Dexterity is reduced to 0, the character is unconscious and any further damage is subtracted from the remaining physical characteristic. If all three physical characteristics are reduced to 0, the character is killed.
