Hadn't thought of it that way with regard to Daishain using another source for rolls; good point. Personally I'm not concerned about Daishain having a small advantage as he provides fun encounters all the same, but rather long streaks of players/characters mostly failing at anything they try to do not being much fun at all via all single digit rolls for a week at a time. Ky is certainly feeling that way now. I have many times as well, as have many of you, although admittedly I am not currently as I picked an ability for this battle that specifically aids the problem and I think most of the rolls have been spread ok or even if my favor this time around.
--------------------
So I forgot to roll my level2 smite in case I [Critical Hit] and rather than re-do'ing all of my rolls am just going to roll it here.
Don't forget if there are any issues with the rng, it works both ways. Remember the fight in castle naerytar? Poljen rolled double critical hits, twice, and then a single critical after to boot.
And yes, I simply roll real dice, I've got enough going on that I can't wait thirty minutes for results most of the time.
Oh yes indeed, I do not forget Cratol and Poljen's infinite 20+ rolls when the rest of us are on a week long run of 6 being our best roll *wink* No offense to those players, of course, it is what it is.
Yeah I don't want to know how the sausage is made by the Dungeon Master, unless I'm pondering using Shield, of course! (Laugh)
I will admit that I'm sure it's easy for me to only have a strong reaction when a few rolls are particularly bad and having little reaction when the rolls are 'how they should be' in my mind, thus leading to just feeling like they are skewed negatively. I'm not much of a psychology expert, though.
On the other hand I'm mathematically minded enough to know the odds of rolling 8d6 and not getting a single 5 or 6 is what, 4% and rolling 10 d20's in a row and not getting above a 10 is off the charts unlikely… Wish I had a pile of raw data to chew on!
Don't mean to interrupt the game but if you guys need assistance with the way the in-house dice system works you need to address it in the right place in order to get help as Dungeon Masters do not have control over it. There is a link in all the dice tables: Need Dice Help? This will also help this topic stay on support for the game and not a facility.
Already rolled, it passed those concentration saves. (It has both a good Con save mod and something similar to the warcaster feat if you are wondering)
Kntoran, sorry, no bonus to saves, for some reason I briefly forgot Velon isn't a full paladin.
