Cheat sheets/DM screens?

I’m not following you, I promise (if you are the same person on reddit :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: )

I’ll see if I can get some people over on discord to weigh in with anything helpful on this post.

I’ll repost what I put on reddit though:


I’d recommend just printing out the NPC quick build table.

for me, the biggest things to know when making a sudden and quick encounter/NPC is this:

Biggest things that make a difference in a fight are advantage & dice.

The BIG Attribute score increases:

5 = 2d6, you start to keep 2 dice

8 = 3d8, you start to keep 3 dice

10 = 4d8, you start to keep 4 dice

Difficulty based on Advantage

1~2 disadvantage = easy

0 advantage = moderate

1~2 = Average

3~4 = Challenging

5~6 = Hard

7~8 = Extreme


you could further break down the advantage dice I suppose, but basically after 5-6 dice you are pretty good as far as advantage goes. That’s the “golden” number of advantage I strive for to make an effective action that is highly likely to succeed.

After that, you don’t really get much benefit unless you are really hedging your bets against you just being an unlucky roller.
