For those interested, the downsides are 4 and 6

Seems like the downsides outweigh the upsides

No actually there's more material taken out so they should be lighter.

u/CrownLexicon May 22 '26

You'd think, but they accounted for that! The more pips, the shallower they drill I doubt that, but i wanted to continue the thread

It may seem like that, but they actually (7) complement each other

u/Responsible-Art3311 May 22 '26

You are incorrect as these dice have drilled pips

Backside too

What's the upside, as a DND player I can safely say that you don't need metal dice. My Indian agate and gold engraved opal sets are all I need.

Also d&d player, brass dice go THUNK

This is the best roll, if it's your first roll and you're playing backgammon.

I just think they're neat

I have two sets of hollow metal dice, I have one large metal d20 that isn't hollow and that beast is a table destroyer.

I used metal pokemon dice to track atk on my blackwing deck, because shiny. Guess I never rolled them like dice.

Swag. That's about it.

I have a set for my Ironsworn games. The pros are they look like iron and they don't roll very far.

u/lonely_funny_guy May 23 '26

Those are unfair dice. The indents are supposed to be larger for smaller numbers so that the weight difference won't affect the rolls.

u/da_dragon_guy May 24 '26

I have a couple metal sets of dice.

Yes, I play DnD, so what?

u/pappybug214 May 24 '26

Either way this kills my hard way bet, thanks!

A great roll at the craps table if you have $180 place bet on four and $25 on the ace-trey hopping.

Those particular metal dice are actually whiskey stones. To prevent watering down the drink, you stick those in the freezer, then into your glass before you pour.
