Eh, it's the humble d100 roll, especially the second d10 (y'know, the one with 00, 10, 20, etc.).
Not enough random tables, nowadays!
Cheers, LT.
Agreed. Thanks to Rangers we're now living in the Golden Age of the d12, but I can't think of any occasion in the 4E rules that calls for a percentile roll.

But the question is, which die type is the most marginalized? Is it the d8 or the d12 or maybe the d4?
I'm voting for the d12--it doesn't get enough love, especially since the days of S-M/L weapon damage.
Out of the six players at my table each week, two are utterly dependent on d12s for their weapon dice. (And because two don't use weapons, that's half of the weapon-users.) d12's get a LOT of love in 4e.
If there's an unloved die in 4e, it's the d4. Unless you're a rogue, you probably don't use them.

Does anyone remember the book full of different d30 charts and tables that was published at some point in the late 80s? Charts like "What your mother hid in your pack before you left home" and "What did I just stub my toe on?"
