So I made a new game mechanic to add to the story telling and my players are stressing™.

DM: This will have math to add to your characters for story telling.

Players: *breaths in* M A T H

To this day I still don’t understand why Math is such a turnoff to D&D

Don’t get me wrong I hate math. But adding math to know how good you do a thing? That’s different. They succeeded a save and take half damage? Tell me how much damage they still take. You have no idea how happy I am to hear “This mother fucker passed your spell save but still dies from half damage” You have no idea how much saying “Okay 20 + 5 an- wait. 20 is a critical!” 

Screw you Math sucks but D&D Math is awesome!
