[macro help] One roll for multiple things

I'm looking at Circle of Hands. Characters have their Offence and Deffence stats (simplification here). Attack is resolved in one 2d6 roll and than adding same roll to both stats. Is it possible in Roll20? I'm thinking of macro but can't find a way to do one roll applying to both seperate stats.

Rolls are one shot only... however you could do something like: /me Att: [[@{selected|attack}]] / Def: [[@{selected|defence}]] + [[2d6]] would give you your tokens attack and defence (you'd have to change their names to suit the character sheet used) plus the roll to add, some manual math would give you your numbers with little effort. Failing that, with mentor level status you could use the API which can call back rolls and reuse them...

Sounds like easiest solution. Thank you very much.

I actually resolve this with two macros. It'd be pretty quick and easy if you had two simple buttons that that you clicked in succession. For example: Macro #1 Stat Roll: [[2d6]] Macro #2 Attack: [[?{2d6 Result}+@{selected|attack}]] Defense: [[?{2d6 Result}+@{selected|defense}]]

^^ would have been my second suggestion, i'm just too lazy to type the result of another roll into a query lol =D

If you don't mind doing it with two macros and you're not using the turn tracker for initiative, you can actually use it as a limited memory storage area. You'd roll your 2d6 into the tracker, then reference it in the second macro to add to both skills. :). I posted about that somewhere a few months ago... =D

Another idea, depending on your threshold of math pain, is to play a bit with decimals.. Assuming your values are always positive and in a know range, you could do something like this: [[ ( @{attack} + ( @{defense} * .001 )) + ( 2d6 * 1.001 ) ]] Assuming attack of 5 and defense of 8, and a roll of 7, you'd have: ( 5 + ( 8 * .001) ) + ( 7 * 1.001 ) ( 5 .00 8 ) + ( 7 .00 7 ) 12 .0 15 For a 12 attack and 15 defense. It breaks down a bit if you have an even multiple of 10 as the insignificant 0 is truncated, but definitely doable and a single macro. =D Edit : You will have to deal with rounding errors on occasion... You can instead use something like this: [[ ( ( @{attack} * 1000 ) + @{defense} ) + ( 2d6 * 1001 ) ]] If you don't mind an intervening 0, and it fixes both those issues. ( ( 5 * 1000 ) + 8 ) + ( 7 * 1001 ) ( 5 00 8 + ( 7 00 7 ) 12 0 15 Tada!

You guys are amazing. I'll try all of your suggestions in a minute. Thank you so much.

Cool, hope you find it useful!
