Success check math/lack of knowledge/understanding problem

August 11 (9 years ago)

One issue I have with any of the macros is the success/failure operators. Here is the situation

Goal: Compare the spell caster's level of expertise to 1d100 and see if the caster can successfully analyze an item.
Attempt: [[@{Level}*5+15>1d100]]

What do I need to do to make this work? Can I make this work?

Perhaps [[1d100<[[@{selected|level}*5+15]] ]] ?

I don't think it likes the comparison against the compound number but if you use nested rolls, it calculates the target number first.

Edit: I added the selected because I was being lazy and just testing it in chat rather than pasting it into an ability on my character sheet. :)
