[QUOTE="jezter6, post: 8949111, member: 6567"] I'm not even sure what I'm asking. PbtA is 2d6+ability [ie DEX] mod + a few other possible adds (typical roll is probably at +2 or +3). 10+ is a 'hit', 7-9 is a 'partial hit', 6 and under is bad stuff. So even someone with +0 (average joe) still has a fair dice average to get at least the 7+ to get some success. A person with a +3 or a rare +4 still needs an average roll before mod to get the 10+ success. PDQ is also 2d6 but has a much wider range of modifiers since it doesn't use basic ability scores. In all, I'd say the normal 2d6 + "x" the x is like +5/6, so about double that of PbtA. Theoretically, one could just change the partial hit to 10-13, but that means an average joe is going to have a tough time getting the partial at all. I'd like to keep the relative odds of miss/partial/full the same, but the extra +3 in PDQ means something has to change, probably dice from d6 to d10 or something [/QUOTE]
