I'm not totally sure we need a page like this, but it seemed to be in demand, so I created it. It's definitely in need of work. It might be worthwhile/fun to make a list of everything that can deal damage, but then again it might not. --Andronikus 20:41, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Question about damage
I've always wondered, see, this weapon does 2d3. This other weapon does 5d4. What's the difference? What do 2d3 and 5d4 mean? I mean what does the d mean and what do the the numbers mean? If this page explains this it would be helpfull to an extreme level!
Some examples:
1d6 - imagine a 6-sided dice, and roll it once = You'll get results 1 - 6
4d6 - roll a 6-sided dice four times, and count the results together = You'll get results from 4 to 24
5d4 - roll a four-sided dice five times = The results will be from 5 to 20
2d3 - a three-sided dice rolled two times will return numbers 2 - 6
So the second number is number of sides, and the first number is how many times you roll the dice.
