Hi. I can't figure out how to write a roll that does the following: Roll a d12. Keep the result if it is below 12, but if it is 12, roll a d20 and take that result instead if it is bigger than 12. Is there a way to do it?
You could do it with a custom API script. You could also do it with a Rollable table by faking it - calculating the probabilities of every possible result and building the table. You cant do it with a normal macro. For the API route, we'd need to know how you are using it - what does a complete roll look like? What do you want to appear in chat?
Custom API wouldn't be so convenient, as I would like the roll to be part of some larger inline roll. It is doable, but it'd rather use some dice expression, if possible. How would you do it with a normal macro?
You cant do it with a normal macro. It is not possible at all. Macros cannot do conditionals, like "if the d20 is max, check if d20 is higher and use that instead".
