Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate ability modifiers?

Ability modifiers are calculated by subtracting 10 from the ability score and then dividing by 2 (rounding down). For example, a Strength score of 16 gives a modifier of +3.

How are hit points calculated?

Hit points are calculated based on your class and Constitution modifier. Each level, you roll your hit dice and add your Constitution modifier. For example, a level 5 Fighter with a Constitution modifier of +3 would have 35 hit points (5d10 + 15).

How do I determine saving throws?

Saving throws are calculated by adding your base save bonus (from class and level) to your relevant ability modifier. For example, a level 5 Fighter with a Constitution modifier of +3 would have a Fortitude save of +8.
