Rerolling dice only once

February 12 (11 years ago)

Edited February 12 (11 years ago)
Hello,
If you have a mechanic that says you can re-roll a 1 or a 2 but you must use the second roll. It seems like the re-roll mechanic just keeps re-rolling til it rolls something higher than a 2.

For instance you roll 2d8r<2 and roll a 4 and a 1 so the 1 re-rolls, on the re-roll you get a 2. Is there a way to keep the 2 and not have it re-roll again?

Thank you.

Hi! I'd also be interested in a solution for this. Thank you!

Uhm... if it's a "You can reroll, but you MUST use the second roll"... wouldn't it be better than to roll, see what it is, and then decide if you even want to reroll?

Anyway, I don't think that is possible at the moment. The API could obviously do it, but the GM needs Mentor level access for that.

For a "reroll once at 1 and use second result" (as in DnD NEXT halflings "Lucky" class feature) it would be usefull. But thanks for your answer.
