[QUOTE="Asmo74, post: 4297972, member: 67851"] Ive just skipped to the end so this may have been asked and if so I apologise. I have a question about the math used... When you make dice rolls in skill challenges each roll should be considered seperately i.e. if the challenge required 5 successfull rolls for the best result, you do not roll 5d20's at the same time and hope each one is a success (multiplying the individual results to obtain an outcome). So unless you completely stuff up the first roll and the DM decides with such failure furthering the skill challenge is now moot. i.e. in a diplomacy challenge and the first roll is a 1 and the DM decides you've just accidently called the local nobles ancestry into question and you're lucky your not in the dungeon... unfriendly to hostile, therefore skill challenge over time to make a hasty retreat before he calls the guards. Therefore each successive result stands by itself. So could you elaborate on how you come to your percentages? Cheers, Rob [/QUOTE]
