I am not sure if it wasn't clear, but I meant 5e group checks, meaning that the group succeed if at least half characters succeed . These group checks do not increase the odds "a lot", in fact they generally decrease the odds compared to when a single PC attempts a task, because in most cases the PC attempting first is the one with the best chance. If the "group" in "group checks" is made by 2 characters, certainly the group checks increases the odds (two rolls, only one need to succeed). But as soon as there are at least 3 characters, things are not that obvious, even assuming all characters have the same chance... I can't do a detailed analysis, but my feeling is that if the individual task is easy (>50%) then the more characters try the better, while if it's hard (<50%) then the more character try the worse.</blockquote>
