[QUOTE="NotAYakk, post: 8498254, member: 72555"] It is simply true. Naw, a reroll acts exactly like disadvantage when the original roll is plain. It is identical. Please stop posting incorrect math. Such as this. Repeating your incorrect math doesn't make it right. Stats and probability is hard, but it doesn't excuse refusing to be corrected. A first level slot is worth less than a 2nd, 3rd, 4th or higher level slot. Casting a 2nd or higher level spell means you thought it was worth the chance of failure. Unless you where quite wrong (and maybe thatis the case), spending a 1st level slot on the same gamble is a better deal than you just thought was worthwhile; lower cost (in terms of slots), same payoff matrix. When comparing two abilities, working out the benefit per cost matters. Not casting SB because it isn't beeded is part of calculating its cost when compared with abilities you have to "pre fund". If you ignore this you'll gettge wrong answer. Which is why you are getting the wrong answer. This is your error here. If you don't understand this error, you'll continue to claim false things. This isn't a matter of opinion. You have an error here. Unless you address this mistake, you'll not understand why your math is solving the wrong problem. [/QUOTE]
