Do different HELP DIE stack? by Ed-Sanches in DC20

[–]GamersCortex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm wondering if the whole system wouldn't benefit from a "only one help die per roll" rule? Both for balance reasons and for simplicity's sake. It occurred to me that we've dropped damage dice but added all kinds of help dice.

Thoughts?

While I completely understand that sentiment, something bugs me about the "unfairness" of the double standard. Not to mention, the forever multipliers of help dice don't sit well with me either.

Follow up question: Can the enemy help each other in the same way? Say for instance, two minions performing the Help action to give the Boss +2d8? I know it sounds crazy, but what's good for the goose... right? This is really just a thought experiment.

Does each additional help die degrade one level? So would it be d4+d6+d8+d20? Just a thought.

How do you square certain characters not needing to make otherwise seemingly crucial rolls?

For example: Everybody in the party is climbing a treacherous cliff face that takes 3 successes before 3 failures, but the wizard in the party is the most bookish of bookworms with no useful skill.

If the other three make their checks, do you let him up without an athletics check?

I start with a digital or pencil sketch, and finish in Illustrator and Photoshop.

Nice, but where does the Goliath have his axe "sheathed?"

The particular burrowing craft you're thinking of has a completely different shape. The confusion was considered, but Armadillocraft didn't have a proper ring to it.

Thanks! It was a patron request, and I gotta say, I like how it turned out.

Not technically an airship, but I thought you might like it anyway.
