So here's where I am. I'm on a big 'simple is better' kick with my game group, and I'm trying to figure out how Wizards is handling their attribute check DCs. Rumor has it that they're letting certain stat levels auto-succeed on tasks. I like this, and want to incorporate it into my game. The thing is, I can't quite suss out how it interacts with check DCs and your stat mod.
1. If the auto-succeed threshold is the same as the DC, then you have a 60% success drop if you go from say Stat 15 vs. DC 15 to Stat 15 vs. DC 16.
2. Maybe a DC has two number? An auto succeed and a test threshold? Maybe at the 'take 10' level? So with a stat of 15(+2), the DC would read 15 (DC 13)? Seems clumsy to me.
Any ideas?
