Skill Check Macro

So i'm trying to set up a simple skillcheck macro which goes as follows. {3d6}<15 It only checks individual dice, unfortunately. Is there a way to check all the dice collectively?

Nope. Not without using the API.

Aww!

[[ 1 - 1d1cf0cs0>[[15-3d6]] ]] seems to work. You may want to add +1 or -1 to the 15 depending on the behavior you want when the 3d6==15. I included the cf0 and cs0 because the highlighting is odd with d1s, and you don't need it anyway.

Uh, how about: [[[[3d6]]<15]]? Works for me. xP

You can check them collectively without Nested Inline Rolls or the API by using Grouping Rolls: [[ {(d0+16),3d6}&lt;15 ]] The (d0+16) in the group is just there to have a second (always failing) roll so that it is treated as a group. Effectively, this means that only the 3d6 gets compared to the 15.

Looks like it does. That's one way around the grouped rolls issue. Sucks to have to use a workaround though.

It appears to not work correctly when I tried it . Ok, yeah, it works. Even if it does work, it would not allow you to inspect the dice rolled, which is why it wouldn't be my goto choice.

Well if inspectinig the dice is needed... and the number of dice rolled is static then you could do something more like [[ {(d6+[[d6]]+[[d6]])[3d6]}&lt;15} ]] A side note: my earlier solution could also be changed to [[ {d6+[[2d6]]}&lt;15 ]] to remove the ugliness of rolling a d0
