As another example the spell 'CounterspellвЂ™ wonвЂ™t create an effect either because Fantasy Grounds canвЂ™t know what the difficulty class of the incoming spell might be. For example the spell 'Animal MessengerвЂ™ doesnвЂ™t require an effect since this spell and others like it are simply 'Theatre of the MindвЂ™ spells. Where an effect is not created via this method the probability is very high that either the spell doesnвЂ™t require an effect or Fantasy Grounds doesnвЂ™t have a built in way to handle whatever the spell is trying to do. For example dragging spells into the actions tab will in almost every case create an effect. Many effects are created automatically for you in the 5e ruleset by dragging and dropping from the source material such as the PlayerвЂ™s Handbook. Effects are also checked when that same character is attacked, or damaged or has a saving throw, ability check or skill check forced on them (such as from a spell). In other words effects are checked when a character attacks, does damage, makes a saving throw (including death saves) or makes an ability or skill check. In order for the effect to be properly executed the character must be on the Combat Tracker (CT) and either they or another actor must make a dice roll which involves the character. In Fantasy Grounds an effect is anything which gives the character either a bonus or penalty of some kind to a dice roll they are about to make. It is also, judging by the number of forum posts, the area where most users find the learning curve steepest. One of the most powerful features of the built in 5e ruleset is effects. Heavy signature trait (Dungeon MasterвЂ™s Guide II). Cold resistance 2 for armors вЂHizagkuur weighs the same as steel, and it has a hardness of 10 and 30 hit points per inch of thickness. +1 fire damage and +1 electric damage for weapons. Mithral: reduces the weight of an item by half. (For ease of bookkeeping, assume that melee attacks always target the most-damaged. 24 have 15 damage and the other 25 have 30 damage.

The 5e DMG has a short section on вЂњhandling mobs:вЂќ it has a chart for approximating, out of a group of attacking monsters, how many monsters hit. 5e DMG: page 250 as a complete mass combat system. With a penalty, it is possible to deal 0 damage, but never negative damage. Magic weapons, special abilities, and other factors can grant a bonus to damage. You roll the damage die or dice, add any modifiers, and apply the damage to your target. Each weapon, spell, and harmful monster ability specifies the damage it deals.
