[QUOTE="Aaron L, post: 1638732, member: 926"] As a person who is horrible with math and has attention deficit disorder besides, I have no problems adding groups of single digit numbers on the fly. I have played characters up to 24th level (my ranger 18/barbarian 1/border guard 5) with no problems and no lessing of my enjoyment. My 18th level bladesinger (fighter 4/wizard 2/bladesinger 10/eldritch knight 2) has an armor class that can vary by up to 10 points from round to round as I wish, and it doesn't slow me down taking a number from armor class and adding it to hit instead. If I have common situational modifiers (smite, rage, etc.) I precalculate them and have them on my sheet. And all the bonus types? here's a bit of advice: Ignore the word and add the number. I mean, look to make sure you aren't adding the same types of bonuses, but other than that just forget the word is there and add the +5 to the +1 to the +3. Seriously, spreadsheets? C'mon, that's a joke, right? [/QUOTE]
