But DMs aren't always going to resolve a given problem in a manner with which you completely agree, and that isn't necessarily cheating, un-uniform, or in any way wrong.But let's look at that fighter trying to climb that hill, again. The Rogue succeeds, but on a equal roll, generally the fighter should fail. He succeeds.And when he does, maybe patience is the key, and it needs to be discussed out of game. Perhaps the DM is taking into account 5 other attemptswhere the fighter missed out by a whisker, and the percentages are in his favor, for success, on this attempt.  Or maybe there is a reason he came out on top, which will come to light, shortly down the road.</blockquote>
