Advantage
Advantage and Disadvantage are a gameplay mechanic that can greatly affect the success of dice rolls. They can apply to Attack Rolls, Saving Throws, and Ability Checks, but not to Damage Rolls.
Advantage[ред. | ред. код]
When you roll with Advantage, you perform the roll twice, and use the higher result. You can only have Advantage once; in other words, you'll never roll more than twice for a single attack or check due to Advantage.
Example: You roll two D20 for an Attack Roll, because you have Advantage. The results are 16 and 4. Your effective result is 16.
Advantage is negated by Disadvantage. The number of Advantages and Disadvantages you have is irrelevant. Even if you have three sources of Advantage, a single source of Disadvantage will negate it. [Needs confirmation, because it is the same text like in Disadvantage]
Examples of situations that grant Advantage:
- Attacking an enemy that is Restrained
- Being unseen by the enemy while making an attack
- Various spells and abilities that grant Advantage
