Calculating the number of Dice to roll

1606350466

I am trying to calculate how many dice to roll and then roll them. I get my math to work, but the roll doesn't happen. [[ {floor((@{Garish Bloodline|level} + 1)/6)}d8 ]] It appears the 'd8' part is just dropped and no roll occurs. I have trying to figure this out for way too long. So any help will be appreciated.

The parser doesn't seem to like complicated expressions for the number of dice. But you can switch it to an inline roll and make it work that way. So the roll would become [[ [[floor((@{Garish Bloodline|level} + 1)/6)]]d8 ]]

I solved it. [[ [[floor((@{Garish Bloodline|level} + 1)/6)) ]]d8 ]]
