[QUOTE="ichabod, post: 9053332, member: 1257"] Are you saying they would have a +2 bonus over their normal bonuses, for those class-specific stats? Say you have a character who has a +5 bonus (normal 5E) trying a DC 15 task. They have a 55% chance of success. With 2d10, they have a 64% chance. With 2d10 and an extra +2, they have a 79% chance. So tasks that are average for a character are going to be much easier. The same character with a DC 20 task has a 30% chance with a d20. With 2d10, they have a 21% chance. With 2d10 and a +2 bonus, they have a 36% chance. So without the bonus they have a worse chance, but with it they have a better chance. With a DC 25, the normal chance is 5% (they have to roll a 20). With 2d10, that drops to 1%. With 2d10 and a +2 bonus, that goes up to 6%. So 2d10 with a +2 bonus is easier than 1d10, how much so depends on how hard the task is for the character. Since you say this is going to class specific stats, characters will have an easier time with class specific actions, and a harder time with other actions (unless it would be a pretty easy task for them any, anything needing more than a 12 on the roll).
