It does, just via hp/damage rather than 'accuracy.' The kobolds can still hit you, you can still miss them, they can occasionally make a save when you cast at them - but whether they do or not, the sheer power of your fireball vaporizes them.some yeah but honestly I want heros to really outclass the blue blazes of the challenges they had 1 tier ago ...
Yeah, a schlup can still roll well. I mean, a lot of 5e functionality across pillars or levels comes down to the 'warm body' effect. If you can make a check, at all, you often have a shot. Bob the fighter may be at -1 total to some check, but he can still roll a 19, maybe even a 23 with some Guidance. Same would be true for just, like, Bob the peasant, if he happened to be there - he wouldn't be there, because of all the wandering damage you encounter between meaningful checks, but /if/ he were. ::shrug::I have described it as my chosen one of the goddess at level 23 in 4e is still better at bluffing the of a mayor because of her breadth of experience and confidence she has levelling regardless of putting points into deception or charisma. NOT so in 5e she is a schlup at it.
