Resolution Cheat Sheet
Resolution by level (d20)
DC = 3 × level (level 1–10). Roll a d20 with no modifiers, so only 1 to 20 can come up; a dash means no roll gives that result.
| d20 | Result | Details |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Fail, and | Fail, and things are worse |
| 2 to DC−6 | Fail, but | Fail, but something else helps you |
| DC−5 to DC−1 | Success, but | Success, but not exactly as expected |
| DC to DC+4 | Success | Exactly as you expected |
| DC+5 and up | Success, and | Success, and things are better |
