Herman: The dieroller is an interesting feature, no doubt about that.

But I pressed the "Roll For Damage" button 15 to 20 times and only saw damage below 20 two or three times. And I saw at least three occurences of 5/5/6.

It seemed to roll above the average for me. Although it could have been a fluke. I did see a 1/1/2 in there.

Randy: But don't I usually roll above average anyway :) Seriously though, I haven't looked at how well the randomizer is. And I also tend to prefer dice until the number of dice starts to get larger, or there is a large amount of dice-rolling required.

Herman: Oh. OK.

I actually hav e a bias against computers using random number generators for die rolls. Mainly because the random number generators I've dealt with have the strangest "luck".

Stranger than my "day of 10s" at POTA. (I rolled four 10s for my first four rolls on d20s.) Odd luck like all low rolls for me and all high rolls for the computer. And stranger things still.

Although I wouldn't mind using it for Lukas' EB damage if it keeps rolling as high as it did before.
