I have started a new wizard. One of his spells, Ray of Frost I think it is, has a damage of 1-3. How do you generate that number? 1d6 and divide by 2 perhaps?

As long as you round UP (unlike all other D&D fractions) instead of down when you do your 1d6/2, it'll suffice. Darken Light, is the lack of darkness.

I believe they explain all the dice at the beginning of the PHB as well. -Zach AIM: AmeNoRyuu MSN: toupsz@hotmail.com ICQ: 210181200

Funny how I never get to use it. _________________________________________________________________ One suffers the pain of discipline or the pain of regret.

I'm at work and don't have a PHB in front of me atm. However I did look in the front of the PHB and don't recall seeing a d3. Will have to look again when I get home. Thanks for the replies everyone. ~Robert Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.Jn 3:17
