Update. I gave it a shot and this co-worker sorted out a great way of doing it without there being any wrinkles. I should make a video of it seriously.

Im the first comment in over a year

Awesome looking to start up a club at my new school. Last place I was at we laminated wrapping paper but the darn dry erase would not come off easily at all, it was a real struggle. I will try this out this time. Bonus points for the Extralife T-Shirt. I have raised $800 bucks for T.O. Sick Kids through it this year so far. Trying to hit that 1k mark for the first time. 9th year on the fundraising and next will be my decade of doing it.

Hi everyone I need sum DICE ADVISE the TLDR is basically how many of each kind of dice do you need for dnd? Some one told me I need 2 of each dice from D4 to d20 aka two D4s two d6s two d8s two 2xd10s two d12s two d20s but I see on line there are also sets with d24 d30 d60 do I need them as well?? I've also seen on a YouToube video they some times you need to role 3 8Ds at ones so do I need 3 of them? I'm not interested in "collecting" decorative collars or glow in the dark metal/exotic material or otherwise fancy dice. I just want to functionally have a full set of dice with no more or less then is necessary to play DnD even at high levels of play.

how many of what kind dice do you need for dnd?

ee

I know this video is 4 years old but if I roll a 40 and a “0” on the d10, is it a 50?

This was really helpful to someone who was played dnd once in they’re life with ChatGPT as my dm😂

D4 dice make perfect caltrops

Everburn Blade, 2d6*3, +1d4 Fire.

player, just checking.rollong on an item.

my name is tomato

Watched a bunch of videos on this I was super confused you made it super simple, great video thanks!

I’m very old and have played D&D for decades. I’m now learning Pathfinder. This is an excellent video for people who are just getting started with d20 games. All the dice can be confusing. I also liked your inclusion of why you might want multiples of the same die. I was out of town earlier this year, playing at PaizoCon in a game store. I bought a couple of extra sets of dice just for the reason you mentioned: I needed to roll 3d4 for a spell I used a lot and it just made sense to HAVE 3 d4s instead of rolling 1d4x3.

This helped so much thank you I have marked down some notes and stuff now I know how to use dice onto the next steps of learning to DM ig

Thanks I'm starting my first campaign ever and dice always confuses me but this Helped ❤

Thanks bro!

Nice plans, and who can beat FREE!!! All the best Fitz!

Why the hell is everybody talking about tomatoes!🤬 in real life intelligence is how you’re able to solve a problem 4*6=24 and wisdom is how much information you know like history or facts.

Thanks. I am crocheting a dice bag for a guy I adore and I needed to see the smallest dice to know whether I needed to line the bag or not.

Me and my friends are trying to start D&D and we are having trouble making characters. The tomato based explanations really helped. Thanks!

This was literally the only video I understood- thank you

One quick tip, even as a veteran gamer of 30 years, I sometimes at first glance get the d12 and d20 mixed up. Both look like pretty round balls, unless you know what you're looking for. Look at the faces. If the faces are triangles, that's a d20. If the faces are pentagons (5 sided shapes), it's a d12. With d8 and d10, the faces of the d8 are triangles. The d10 faces can be a little variable but will at least roughly be elongated diamonds. And watch out for the d4s if they fall on the floor, these are designed to double as caltrops and will pierce your feet if you step on them without shoes. Back in the day, dice sets came without the percentile dice. You just got the d10 and you either rolled it twice, or you rolled two different ones of different colors and remembered which you had designed as the hundreds place. (I've seen a few tables used some places that have you roll 3 d10s and generate 1-1000...). Apparently even backer in the day (before my time), you just got a d20, number 1-10 twice rather than the d10.

It is fantastic. I loved it and ran it.

I love the fact that it's "cheap and easy" - so many DIY dice tower videos require an almost professional woodworking shop fully equipped with all the power tools to make the tower.

OMG, those are my dice, as a DM I have a lot of those but I am only getting this type! Thank you! :-P

What? No, 00+10=10, this guy is wrong. 00 is 0 then add the d10. Lowest is 1 highest is 10. To get 100 you would need to role a 90 on the percentile dice and a 0 or 10 on the d10.

First thing I got was a beautiful galactic green set of dice. Now I need some charecters

😂😂😂😂nice, man!!!

F

This was a very helpful video.

I love the tomato analogies thank you

But what do ability scores do?

Hey, my 7 year old twin boys approached me 2 weeks ago and announced they want to learn D&D. I have since been scoured loads of videos on line. I must admit i really like your DM screen Would love a basic intro into how to play this for kids...

I would love to hear about how many of each dice are useful to have for dnd

These videos are great. Where is the proficiency video?

this was so handy thank you!!!

Absolutely, the entire vid was useful and informative. The bit about the 1 to exact 100 on the percentile was super helpful

ty i was having alot of trouble with % die i appreciate it alot, any suggestion for a friendless loser to find a new grp?

If you roll 00+0 it equals 10 not 100, the number that equals 100 is 90+0. I have had this argument alot with DMs. If its 00+0=100 you now have a 2% chance of hitting 100 instead of 1% chance. If the 1-0 die is one to ten then to roll a 60 you need 50+0 with this scale the total can only be between 1-100. If the 1-0 die is instead zero - nine, the scale is now 0-99. The 00-0 hundred is confusing because you need to clarify that you are replacing the 0 total to now be the 100 roll and that the 1-0 roll is now read as zero to nine, not one to ten. This could matter if someone needs to meet a 60% to succeed. They roll on die 50-0, is that 50% or 60%?? Its nice to clear it up before so everyone knows which way the math is being counted. With one 0 reading as ten, you just add them together same as always for every roll, but for 0 as zero, you have to remember to calculate it differently when 00 is on the other dice. Yeah my DM did not roll percentiles openly with me. Lolz

Hey! I just wanted to say this video was super helpful! I have Adhd and I lost interest in other videos really fast! But you kept my attention! You have a calm voice and I appreciate the talking mostly facts! ❤

Thanks this was useful, simplified it and made it less overwhelming

If you were to take two d4 and connect them at a base you will be losing one side from each die so it would really be like an odd-shaped but still very fair, but hard to read d6. If you come up with an odd way to count the edges you can make one that's easier to read.

Have a dnd sesh tomorrow and needed to make a character sheet, such a life saver!

That transition bro..

First time viewer here, but I can’t oversee the art in the background, is that reckless reveler? A 2/1 satyr from mtg?

thank you! im starting to play dungeons and dragons with some online friends and i was having trouble with the skills. one of my friends recommend this video and it helped so much. thank you again!

And once your groove is started, you can speed it up a little bit. That's what she said. 😅😂

Okay, so if you use the stat buy, every stat is 8 points, but you have an additional 27 points you can use to put into the stats you want? Is it like that or am I wrong?

I was really lost thank you so much for your help !!!
