One of the characters in my dnd game is a rogue. I thought I understood how sneak attack damage and critical damage apply to her, but I'm not that good at math, so I looked around for a macro that would automatically calculate all the possible combos of the two types. (BTW, I'm using the 2014 character sheet.) What I found is the suggestion that I enable the global damage modifier for one of the rogue's weapons and make the following entries: Name: Sneak Attack Damage: ?{Sneak Attack|No, 0|Yes, [[ ceil((@{base_level}) / 2) ]]d6 [Sneak Attack]} Critical Damage: [[ceil((@{base_level})/2) ]]d6 Type: Sneak This works pretty well as long as I specify a sneak attack. If I use any of the rogue's weapons, it calls up a choice box asking if this is a sneak attack and calculates accordingly. The problem is that if I say that it is not a sneak attack, it still reads out sneak damage. It doesn't say that the sneak attack damage is zero, it rolls 2d6 for sneak attack damage and displays the result. It's easy to just ignore the sneak damage in that case, but it seems to me that the code I've entered should end up giving me a zero for the sneak damage. Here's an example: My attack roll is a 20. When I ask the chat entry for the damage, I specify No Sneak. Roll20 rolls 4d6: a 1, a 4, and 2 6s. The chat interprets this as: piercing damage 8 + 1 with the 8 being 1d6 + 4[DEX] = 4 + 4 and the 1 being 1d6 = 1 and sneak damage 12 = 2d6 = 6 + 6. I don't have any trouble with the piercing damage, but shouldn't the sneak damage be 0? Either the macro isn't calculating correctly or I'm misunderstanding the interaction of sneak and crit (probably the latter).
