When you roll 2*d20 and take the higher result, what is the average increase in result over rolling a single d20?
It's been 12 years since I had any probability/statistics classes, and I'm really rusty... the only things I can remember is that the chance of any given number occurring is increased from 5% to 10%, and that the chance of two identical numbers occurring is 0.25%.
The purpose of my original question is to eyeball the value of a feat that grants the ability to roll two dice for a check and take the larger value, versus a feat that grants a fixed bonus.
