- I'm fairly new to DnD so I apologize for the noob question. I recently found a game store running the Adventures League for 5e. Last night was our first adventure, had a ton of fun but I was hoping someone could help me with a couple questions in regards to the Attack roll and Damage modifiers.
- Aug 05, 2017 How to calculate damage DnD 5e. She wants to shoot her longbow. She has 18 dexterity and as such gain +4 from it. She also has proficiency in longbows, and thereby gains +2. My problem now becomes as to how to apply these numbers. Say that I roll attack and roll a 10. Is it then correct to: Add +4 and +2, resulting in a 16.
- Jan 27, 2015 Re: At the end why use the Longbow vs Crossbows? Well for starters, the longbow is a great backup or standoff weapon for any character with multiple attacks who doesn't want to burn a feat. Secondly, while it's great that you're reliably using your bonus action, you are using your bonus action and sometimes you need to do other things with it.
I'm new to DMing! How do I start?
First, congratulations on running a game! You'll get the hang of it pretty quickly. The easiest way to build an encounter is to pick an enemy from the Monster Manual with a CR around the same as the level of PCs in your party, maybe one higher if you want them to have a tough fight. This won't always be perfect, but it's a good place to start. You'll find that this method mostly generates Medium or Hard difficulty encounters, which is about what you are aiming for.
To spice things up, increase the number of enemies. Either go for a group of lower-level mooks, or a second bad guy of around the same CR, or mix and match. Don't go too wild with this, though - the PCs can only take on so many enemies at once. In 5th Edition, outnumbering your opponent can be quite an advantage. Be very careful before putting your PCs up against a Deadly encounter, especially against lots of enemies.
Why are my players finding encounters so easy?
If you're using this calculator a lot, you may have found it can seem to overstate the difficulty of encounters. First I'll explain why this happens, and then how you can fix this.
The biggest culprit for easy encounters is the party resting too much. If you're like me, your parties tend to have maybe two or three encounters per long rest, often with short rests in between - this makes more sense for some play styles, but causes balance problems.
The way 5th Edition balances resources assumes that parties will have at least a couple of medium-difficulty encounters between each short rest, and maybe two or three short rests between each long rest. This forces characters to be conservative with their limited resources (spell slots, class features, hit dice, and so forth), making each individual encounter tougher. A party that can approach an encounter fresh, with no worries about saving resources, will often find that encounter relatively easy.
Warframe scaling dmg. There's some Warframes that you need to Build with Damage, because they are too weak to survive anyways, you will can add some Health and Shield MODs, but I think it's best you kill enemies instead of try to survive them.The Tank Warframes, Vauban, Rhyno, Chroma, Frost and some others, it's best do win by enduring enemies. To kill enemies I use weapons instead of skill.Everything will depende how do you play anyways, if you are a guy that doesn't care and just rush towards enemies, you can use a Tank Warframe with a Tank Build and weapons that deals 'Tons of Damage'.If you are guy that take precoution and avoid 1v300 situations, you can use a fragile Warframe but with a high damage output, like Ember in low levels. A build with tons ♥♥♥♥ of Health, Shield and Damage Reduction. To kill you will need a weapon with high damage and stuffs like that.I have Frost Prime and Vauban Prime and I use a Build to survive. You build a Tank with tons of shield, health and damage reduction.
How do you fix this? You have two choices.
- Don't let your party rest as often. There are a couple of ways of doing this - you could have encounters happen closer together without any chance for a break between each (maybe putting the characters on a timer, or make it dangerous to rest), or use the 'Gritty Realism' rest model as described in the DMG (page 267) which makes rests take longer. I have started using Gritty Realism in my games and I've found that it makes designing adventures substantially easier, and stops the party attempting to rest at every opportunity.
- Make the encounters harder. You can probably make the Adjusted Difficulty Rating of an encounter up to double or maybe even triple (for very experienced parties) the XP* rating of a Deadly encounter, and the fight will be more challenging and risky, but not impossible for a prepared party. There are some downsides to this approach, however. Fights become much more dangerous as an encounter can quickly snowball from challenging to deadly if one or two of the PCs are dropped. This is especially pronounced at lower levels where a single hit can be enough to put someone on the floor. If you use this method, you may need to increase the difficulty slowly until you get to the level of challenge you want.
*Note for those who use CR, this scales differently. You may only want to increase the CR of encounters by 1 or 2.Dmg mori davis glassdoor.
The 5e DMG has a short section on “handling mobs:” it has a chart for approximating, out of a group of attacking monsters, how many monsters hit.
It’s pretty simple: subtract attacker’s hit bonus from the target’s AC. Cross-index that number on the chart. If the number is 1-5, all the attackers hit; if it’s 6-12, 1/2 of them hit; etc., up to 1 in 20 of the attackers hitting on a 20.
I ran a big set-piece battle yesterday: 8 mid-level PCs and 10 gnomes against 20+ drow and other assorted creatures, including a drow spider chariot and a sinister angel. With a wizard and a sorcerer PC and two drow wizards, all slinging fireballs, the mob attacks weren’t much of a factor. With all those fireballs, what I COULD have used was rules for mob saving throws.
If I’d thought about it, I’d have realized that the same chart can be used for saving throws. Instead of subtracting attack bonus from AC, subtract saving throw bonus from DC, and use the chart as normal. For instance, a fireball save DC of 15, minus the drow dex save (+2) is 13, which, according to the chart, means that 1/3 of the drow succeed on their saving throw (and probably survive with 1 or 2 HP left).

In fact, this same chart can be used for ability/skill checks (how many orcs managed to climb the wall? DC minus skill bonus) or any other d20 roll.
To me, it seems this is all you need to run fairly simple battles with dozens or hundreds of creatures per side. The amount of HP tracking is not excessive: for instance, in this unit of 50 ogres, 24 have 15 damage and the other 25 have 30 damage. (For ease of bookkeeping, assume that melee attacks always target the most-damaged creature.)
You might also care about the base size of big units. I assumed that a close-packed formation of 10 Medium troops took up the size of one Large creature. I’d say that 25 troops are Huge and 50 are Gargantuan.

If we do any bigger-scale battles, I might find other rules that I need (after all, the Chain Mail rules are much longer than this blog post) but right now, this is looking pretty good for running big D&D skirmishes.
