Hello everyone, I'm new to this game, so please forgive me if this is an easy question that I should know the answer to...
As regards falling damage, I know from the rules compendium that you roll 1d10 per 10 feet fallen. I'm just not sure exactly how to calculate the number of dice to roll.
I would think it would be the Floor of [Feet Fallen / 10]. In other words, a 10 foot fall, would be 1 die. That much is obvious, I don't expect that could possibly be wrong by any interpretation of the rule. But say we have fallen 9 feet, then using the typical "always round down" rule, we have 0 dice to roll, because we didn't fall by any full increments of 10 feet. Likewise, 11-19 feet would still only be one full increment of 10 feet, so we only roll 1 die.
Is that the right way to look at it?
