We got asked to do this a lot, so we did. We do this for every skill!

How about doing a gold medal–winning vault with a sprained ankle?

I guess they rolled with disadvantage.

And came up a double natch 20.

this will be amazingly helpful

I like the numbers chosen. I will admit to a bit of concern when I saw the title of the post, because I was afraid they might be too high (people just want to do that for some reason), but these seem right according to 5e standards. That further confirms my general confidence in the quality of design work of the Level Up team. One of the members of our group will love this, as he likes clear numbers when he’s DMing.

Same, I really appreciate the DC 10 being things that actually have an aspect of difficulty to them, to the point of a roll actually seeming necessary. I hate DC 10s that are easy and just there for the sake of rolling dice and presenting a failure chance because dice.

Ah, I feel great inner peace from finally seeing some printed example DCs...

yeah, same. I would rather have a table that I don't agree 100% and tinker a bit, than to just have to write 100% of DCs by myself that can be received by players in a mixed response. Better like this to have a common ground from which you can start with.

House rule "Take 10" in that case.
