That actually gets a better view on how much you get out of the d4/d6 split on rolls. As before, with the rules as per the UA you can expect 27 uses per day. Here's the stats:As per the UA:Attempting 27 uses per day, you can expect:Median number of uses achieved: 27Average number of uses: 21Able to use the die on every attempt for the day 50.0009% of days.Assuming all of those rolls are damage, you get: 72.4 extra damage per day.Allowing the die to increase by one size:Attempting 27 uses per day, you can expect:Medium number of uses achieved: 27Average number of uses: 25Able to use the die on every attempt for the day 84.82% of daysAssuming all of those rolls are damage, you get: 100.7 extra damage per dayRemember, the expected damage per day from a battlemaster is 72. That puts the expected use as per the UA to be, on average, exactly the same as the battlemaster. With your update, you end up getting 28 extra damage - more than a third extra - over the day. That's a lot.</blockquote>
