D&D (2024) The Damage of Unarmed Strikes

[Maxperson]

Wow, I've never seen that used by anyone IRL. I read an RPG once which suggested it, but it just seemed like, unnecessarily complicating matters.

I certainly think so and use the "normal" method.

But so is a d4, so why is that relevant?

I think when some people say “normal set” they mean that most non-RPGamers familiar with dice are only familiar with d6s bc of their common use in board games and gambling.

I wouldn’t agree with calling them normal (who defines normal? Tyranny of the majority?), but if you’re trying to get them to be more specific regarding d6 vs any other x-sided polyhedrons used for gaming and gambling, it might come off to some as pedantic…
