10 over also crits.

You just gotta pick easy DCs. That's why I exclusively fight pre-schoolers.

don't forget to tell the cops that you drop-kicked those children in self defense!

17? Lots of days I can only wish i got a 17

[-] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago

I rolled a 6

[-] vladmech@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

I’d rather roll a 17 than a 19 haha

There's actually something to this. Olympians that were surveyed reported more satisfaction with a bronze than a silver.

[-] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

That makes a lot of sense, thinking about it. With a bronze, you can say, "well, I had a really rough day, but even still I managed to eke out a bronze." But with silver, you're tempted to say "...but could I have done 0.2s better and got the gold?"

Depending on the sport sometimes a bronze is a win and a silver is a loss. With some sports, if it’s a one on one thing, there’s a game that’s basically “if you win it’s a bronze, if you lose it’s fourth place” and then the next game (with different team obviously) is “if you win it’s a gold, if you lose it’s a silver”. So if you get a bronze, you won, if you get a silver, you lose.

I had to reread this three times to get it, but yes that is an excellent point

Silver is first loser

[-] ruuster13@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 day ago

Their AC was 18 so my best wasn't good enough to make a dent today.

[-] Hazmatastic@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

That's only because you forgot to add your proficiency modifier. Don't forget to take your own skills and circumstances into account! You have more to contribute than you think!

[-] ruuster13@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

OMG I forgot I was blessed.

[-] Hozerkiller@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 day ago

needs an 18 to pass

[-] OrteilGenou@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I just passed a LARP group in a park near my place. Three had to be forty people gathered in a picnic area comparing their costumes

[-] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 day ago

I rolled a 4

[-] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 2 points 1 day ago

For some games, you want to roll low. So a 17 would be a failure.

[-] suzyq@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago

Love you too <3

[-] Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

Say it again after rolling a 3.

[-] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 3 points 1 day ago

I hate this; back in 3e/3.5e a keen scimitar could crit on a 17 because a scimitar's crit range was 18-20 (keen widens crit range)

I hate 5e for simplifying everything so much

[-] BartyDeCanter@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 day ago

Try Pathfinder! You crit whenever you exceed the target by 10 or more, and different weapons have different crit effects. For example, a Longbow is Deadly d10 so in addition to doing double base damage you also add in a d10. Your scimitar is Forceful and Sweep, which doesn't do anything extra on a crit, but does add extra damage and a bonus to hit with multiple attacks. Perfect for a whirling dervish type character.

Amen brother

[-] Grimy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

This is what I tell myself when I buy lottery tickets. I legit imagine the D20 and everything. Keeps me going.

[-] Beacon@fedia.io 4 points 1 day ago

Except you should be imagining a D900,000,000

[-] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 2 points 1 day ago

That's how they get you. Fukken scammers.
