(in math terms, adv-disadv takes linearity and turns it into a distorted bell curve, where a flat bonus-penalty shifts the whole thing while leaving linearity intact)Agreed, as what's a problem to one DM might be a solution to another. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
