[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 8391545, member: 7030563"] Every DM I have played with (and that number is over 15) rolled dice publicly. They pretty much have to in 5e because of abilities like lucky that allow someone to substitute a roll. It is the hit that triggers shield, so I know I got hit, I also know it is not a natural 20. At that point it is a judgement call and occasionally I get it wrong but not often. It is probably more common that the DM gets my AC wrong with bladesong, cover, shield of faith ...... and he says I am hit when I am not - "ok he hit you" ....... "against AC 21?" ... "oh no I thought it was 19" .... Not when it is the 6th battle of the day and he starts it with 8 hps and no rages left because he has "tanked" every battle so far. What it means is the DM is successfully grinding us down and making us use our resources (specifically hit dice, hps and healing). [/QUOTE]
