1d3? Huh!?

[Piratecat]

I use d20s, but reroll results of 4 or above.

I do the same thing with one of those golfball-sized d100s. My players loathe d3 rolls as much as I love 'em. They usually seize the opportunity to go get a snack.

A d1 is the most pointless dice I've seen

Not quite, at least in D&D.

An spell that does 10d1 damage can be empowered (to do 15 damage), while a spell that does 10 damage can't. An effect that adds 2d1 damage to a weapon isn't multiplied on a crit, while an effect that adds 2 damage is.

But generally, d1's are pretty useless. (Especially if you have maximize instead of empower.)

A d1 is a perfect sphere - it never stops rolling - but you know what the result is going to be before you start.

A d1 is the most pointless dice I've seen

One of my friend has a 6-sided dice made of tungsten carbide. As it weigh more than a chunk of led and as hard as ruby, no-one allow him to roll it on one's dining table....

Isn't there some feat or such in Complete Champion (or maybe ToB) that allows you to keep rolling damage if you roll a 1?

I have a dinfinity, but the GM never lets me use it.
