SyntaxError: Expected "(", ".", "[", "abs(", "ceil(", "d", "floor(", "round(", "t", "{", [ |\t], [+|\-] or [0-9] but "x" found.
One of my players is using a scythe, however whenever they crit and click to do damage the above error appears in chat.
Can someone help me sort this please?
That typically comes from a malformed roll syntax. For a human-initiated roll, that would mean actual broken syntax. For a roll generated from an API (or an API calling a command line that includes an inline roll), there are other limitations -- where the roll would typically work for a human, but does not work when coming from the API. Things like no leading white space (inside the opening double brackets. Can you post the command line that threw this error?
Rolling 1d20cs>20 + 3[STR] + 1[MOD] + 2[PROF] = (20)+3+1+2
is the code on the roll for their 26 crit. but when I click the name of the weapon to do damage I get the syntax error in my original post.
Are you using the D&D 5E by Roll20 sheet or a different one?
What is in the crit fields for the scythe attack?
So originally I had that box filled with x4 as its listed on the sheet. after seeing your example I swapped that to include dice (never occurred before) and now the crits work. Thank you.

Ah yeah it sounds like you're looking at 3.5E stats for a scythe - there's no SRD scythe in 5E. I'm assuming the 3.5 sheet has the ability to use a multiplier for crits, but the 5E sheet just adds an additional roll for crits.
