IRC, 11-20 and you shake off the effect and if you roll a natural 20 you shake off all ongoing effects simultaneously.The notation that the Pit Fiend has +2 to Saves would seem to confirm this mechanic. Presumably if the Pit Fiend gets hit by an ongoing effect, it too rolls every round to see if it shakes it off. And it gets a +2 to do so. Nice.I love this new save mechanic. It keeps players in the game even if your character gets hit by an ongoing effect. No more sitting out the whole combat because your character failed a save in the first round. And think of the excitement at the table if someone rolls a 20 and shakes off a bunch of effects at once! Awesome mechanic! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
