Grimtoothy said: Thats a snazzy feature. But I wasn't asking for that. How about this... I'll tell you what I'm looking to do. I'm going to write a test ability that will take the selected tokens attack #1 and output its attack bonus. Actually, once I know how to do that, I'm going to output a chart that numerically depends on the value of this attack bonus. Gauss said: Hi Grimtoothy, Click the attack on your character sheet Next, click the Chat tab (top right corner) Then, click the chat window (where you type) Finally, press the up arrow on your keyboard, copy the text, and paste it somewhere. That will show you how the template is constructed, including bonuses. Note: If you just want know what the attack bonus was on any roll you just need to hover over the attack after it is made and it will show you. The way to get the attack bonus is by doing what Gauss explained. Unfortunately there is no single 'attack bonus' attribute for the 'D&D 5E by Roll20' sheet. The attack bonus is calculated by the sheetworkers (pieces of javascript code embedded in the character sheet) when the button is pressed, depending on the attributes of the weapon or spell that is clicked on. Typically it is the character's Proficiency Bonus (@{pb}) plus the modifier for Strength (@{strength_mod}), Dexterity (@{dexterity_mod}), or Spell Attack (@{spell_attack_bonus}). Attack Rolls Modifiers to the Roll When a character makes an attack roll, the two most common modifiers to the roll are an ability modifier and the character's proficiency bonus. When a monster makes an attack roll, it uses whatever modifier is provided in its stat block. Ability Modifier. The ability modifier used for a melee weapon attack is Strength, and the ability modifier used for a ranged weapon attack is Dexterity. Weapons that have the finesse or thrown property break this rule. Some spells also require an attack roll. The ability modifier used for a spell attack depends on the spellcasting ability of the spellcaster. Proficiency Bonus. You add your proficiency bonus to your attack roll when you attack using a weapon with which you have proficiency, as well as when you attack with a spell.
