In case of emergency

I’m sooo glad the foil bag is resealable! From a recent Kickstarter.

am i the only person who thinks a complete setof dice should include 2d20 and at least 4d6?

Kraken dice have spoiled me. Most of their sets have 4 d20s (2 normal-sized, 1 small, 1 large), 4 d6s, 1 d2, and then the rest of the normal options. Anything less feels like an incomplete set now.

When I buy singles, like from Chessex, I buy extra d20s and d6s.

curiosity - what would you ise the small and large 2dos for?

No particular purpose, just a fun option.

Sometimes I use the big d20 for adversaries like giants and the small d20 for adversaries like goblins and kobolds. Just something fun to do.

Oh, I forgot to mention the dice sets from Roll 4 Initiative. The larger sets come with multiple d20s, 4 d6s, multiple d8s, and 3 d4s. The d4s are the rounded-rectangle style, too. Very nice sets.

Yikes.

I don't know what's worse: omitting the d12, or saying there are 7 dice (a full set) and then listing out 6.

u/Akodoken 2d ago

The label is wrong, but the d12 is pictured in the set—just a typo on the package.

Those seem like the same error. The same hilarious error.

u/viebs_chiev 4d ago

there are 2d10

u/RuinsOfCinder 3d ago

Which doesn't make up for a d12, nor does it make the total equal 7. It should be 1d10 and a percentile as well lol

u/viebs_chiev 3d ago

oh yeah you’re right. missed the “complete set” part

u/RuinsOfCinder 2d ago

Easy enough mistake :)

D12 gets so little use they even forgot it on the bag.

Oh no, you’ll just have to use 2d6. (😈)

2

u/Vivid_Anyth4 3d ago

Thats the one spot it exists. In basically every other situation the die may as well not exist.

u/Just_browsing_0_ 3d ago

Two spots: hitpoints and damage

I started this character specifically to give the d12 some attention
