Tabletop Rpg posts, content, and recruitment posts.

Recruitment posts should contain what system is being played, CW for any adult/serious themes players need to be aware of and whether a game is beginner friendly.

An obvious reminder of no racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia and transphobia.

Emphasis on small independent rpgs like the ones in the TTRPGs for Trans Rights in Texas but not against dnd stuff.

That's how many four players and I rolled over 6 months of weekly 4 hour sessions of Pathfinder 2e. Roughly. There were a handful of rolls outside of the VTT, but probably less than a dozen.

The inventor rolled the most at 826, and the sorcerer the least at a mere 465. Not too surprising, with the inventor having a construct companion and the sorcerer focusing on buffing or forcing saves. The kineticist, champion, and I all rolled between 600 and 700.

The players rolled around 100 saves and 300 skill checks each, the remainder being attack rolls interspersed with the odd flat check (yes, the sorcerer rolled a mere 58 attack rolls).

Less interestingly, the means and roll distributions were pretty bang on average, with a mean of 10.51 across all rolls, the champion being the only real standout with a massive 10.70.

So next time you see an "unusual" series of rolls, remember that it only takes a few months to roll literally thousands of die.

My brain wants to make the title fit that song from Rent lol

Did you keep a tally by pen or something?

Thankfully not, FoundryVTT has a module (I think it's just called Dice Stats) that will tally every die rolled through chat. I installed it to prove to the champion he's a big whiny baby rather than having some kind of unusually bad die luck.
