How to add a mod to each dice rolled?

May 26 (10 years ago)

I'm in a case where I need to make allot of rolls but they need to have a mod attached to them. I could roll them all separately like /roll 1d20+3 but that requires scrolling and is hard for the DM to check, bumps all the text...

How can I roll a bunch of dice at once and apply a mod to each one instead of the result?

You have several options.

1. You can make inline rolls by surrounding the roll in brackets. Like this: [[d20+3]] and just keep them in the same text box.

[[d20+1]][[d20+2]][[d20+3]]

2. You can make a roll template that does the same but you can separate them out for easier reading.

&{template:default} {{name=Whatever you want}} {{roll1=[[1d20+3]]}} {{roll2=[[1d20+5]]}}

3. If the mod changes then you can use a macro with a roll query, then use it over and over.

[[d20+ ?{mod|1}]]

Hope this helps.

Or you can get your GM to be a Mentor and install a script like PowerCards that lets you do repeating rolls like that. :D

depending on the scenario in question; I often just group a bunch of rolls together and tell the GM how many are in use.

example: Identifying a bunch of magic items in a row.
Identify:
[[1d20+5[Spellcraft]]] ♦[[1d20+5[Spellcraft]]] ♦ [[1d20+5[Spellcraft]]]
[[1d20+5[Spellcraft]]] ♦[[1d20+5[Spellcraft]]] ♦ [[1d20+5[Spellcraft]]]
