[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5244781, member: 19675"] Gak! Another night of terrible rolls. We got to the last encounter of the evening and my dice went cold. As in Winter on Neptune cold. I targeted the critter- a white dragon (solo brute, I'm told)- with my best stuff to hit it: Dire Radiance followed by Dread Star. Both targeted Will, its lowest defense, and I even burned an action point to do both in the same round. If either had scored a hit, its will defense would have been reduced. I rolled a 7 and a 9. (Even if I had had a 20 in my casting stat, those would have been misses.) The rest of the combat was spent spamming Eldritch Blast. I never hit with it- never got an attack roll over 8. In the meantime, I wound up "Weakened"...and didn't roll a save roll over 3 until the next to last round of combat. I have a feeling I'd enjoy the game more if my dice liked me. In addition, the DM continued his hot streak against the guy playing the Dwarf fighter. That PC had an AC of 19 and got nailed nearly every round of combat tonight. My AC 14 Warlock (16 when he moved) was hardly scratched until the final battle. FWIW, though, the dice had their fun with everyone. One guy trying out a Beastmaster Ranger watched as his panther sidekick failed roll after Athletics roll trying to jump up a wall he'd succeeded on the first try, and it wasn't until the battle with the white dragon that the cat landed a blow...despite flanking. And another PC consistently outrolled my Warlock and my Wizard on Arcana rolls all evening. Did I mention he was a Archer-build Ranger? [/QUOTE]
