Community Forums: Double 3D dice on attack (character sheet)

When I use the "weapon attack" from the sheet, it rolls 2 3D dices for every roll. The tabletop only considers one of the two 3D dices to be the attack, but 2 dices are shown rolling, and it is pretty anoying.

This is a known issue between 3d dice and roll templates.  When a macro is executed, all rolls are made at that time.  Roll templates allow for some basic roll logic that allow sheet author's to hide/show results based on the rolls.  Since 3d dice happen at the time of execution all dice are shown even if the roll template hides some of the result.

As an example, the roll template must roll all possible dice, so for D&D, it rolls 2d20 (for Advantage/Disadvantage), thought the roll template will only display the appropriate number for the roll. Likewise, it rolls normal and crit damage, since at the time the roll is made, the engine has no way of knowing if they will be needed. I turn them off, personally.

So, using the Pathfinder Roll20 Sheet, there is no way to fix it? There is no "advante/disadvantage" at this sheet, like the 5.0 D&D, right?

I don't know the system well enough and the actual settings might depend on the sheet preferences.

For pathfinder, the double dice are your attack roll, and then the critical confirmation roll. But, unfortunately, there is no way to solve the issue currently.
