Ahlfs Posted January 15, 2019 Report Posted January 15, 2019 I feel like we should have a new RP command where we can attempt something with a 50/50 chance. For example say something looks heavy and you don't know if your character has or has not got the strength to carry said item. you could type "/attempt pick up heavy item" which has a 50/50 chance of it being successful or failing such as "John Doe attempts to pick up heavy item, but failed!" or "John Doe attempts to pick up heavy item, and succeeded!" I could see this being a lot more useful for RP instead of rolling a dice to attempt as I see other people often do.
Xoza Posted January 15, 2019 Report Posted January 15, 2019 In an RP situation or scenario where you'd like to mix it up a bit or unsure of what choice to make as the character, use /dice. Dice can be used to help make these choices easier and add an RP element. If your in equal competition with another, /dice helps decide who could win the encounter or be successful over the other. If you or they have an advantage in some form, /dice twice to compete with the one. If multiple people are involved, 1-2 vs 3-4, they can all roll to see what the outcome could be added. If it's 1 vs 2, they would all roll only to beat the one naturally giving an advantage. If you approach or do something that could be difficult or have a challenge associated with it. /dice to either see if successful 4-6 or failed 1-3. You can also base the challenge on that number especially if you expect to succeed despite a fail. You can also adjust the success/fail based on difficulty. If it's easy, you could fail at 1-2 instead, if it's hard you could fail at 1-4. I love seeing people using /dice. During an attempted escape of a criminal I was transporting unlike most lately, they didn't go into /ooc right away, so I enjoyed RPing with them and was open to options and expanding the RP. they /me'd an attack and attempt to get away, I was distracted, I rolled a dice, they rolled higher and I let them go and they got away. Later that night they turned themselves in. I would actually like to see dice expanded. /roll d## command. /roll d4, /roll d6, /roll d10, /roll d20, /roll d100.
