Adding that additional +5 would add his strength bonus a second time as well as his proficiency modifier. He should just get the +3 - notice that the character sheet in the starter set says just that.It used to be worse with earlier editions. At one point, they gave you a table matrix to determine if a roll hit or not (I had trouble figuring out the first time I read it whether the roll needed to be higher or lower than the target number). The mechanics have gotten easier over the years, but they can still be a challenge to absorb when you're new to the whole game.</blockquote>
