Test run for damage example table. The intent it to replace the paragroh of examples so that the full in-game style damage expression can be shown for each example.

Examples of damage rolls

Examples of damage expressions
Source Damage expression Dice Damage range
Daggers Dagger

For example, a successful attack with a Daggers Dagger does a base of 1d4Damage TypesPiercing damage (1~4). This means a single four-sided die D4 Piercing.png is rolled to determine the damage, for a total of 1 to 4 piercing damage. Most weapons use a single damage die, but some two-handed weapons use two: a successful attack with a Greatswords Greatsword does 2d6Damage TypesSlashing damage (2~12), rolling two six-sided dice D6 Slashing.png for a total of 2 to 12 slashing damage. Damaging spells typically roll more dice: for example, being caught in a Fireball Fireball will cause 8d6Damage TypesFire damage (8~48), though a successful Saving Throw can reduce it to half.
