Sephral’s Roll Breakdown
Ever wondered where all those bonuses on your attack rolls come from or why your character suddenly has advantage or disadvantage?
Roll Breakdown makes it easier to understand your dice rolls in Foundry VTT. It adds a detailed breakdown directly to chat cards, showing the dice, modifiers and bonuses that contribute to the final result. No more guessing where those extra numbers came from.
The demo uses Quillathe, one of the premade heroes of the D&D 5e system, with Bless and Archery as active effects.
Highlights
Detailed Roll Breakdown
See exactly how your rolls are calculated. A compact panel on each chat card displays the dice, modifiers and other values that make up the final result.
D&D 5e Support
Get detailed information for attack rolls, damage, saving throws, ability checks, skills, tools, concentration checks and death saves, including the sources of their bonuses.
Advantage and Disadvantage
Find out why a roll has advantage or disadvantage when the information is available. The module can display reasons provided by modules like MidiQOL and identify relevant effects in D&D 5e 6.
Crucible Support
See how boons, banes and bonuses affect your rolls in Crucible. The breakdown also shows results against difficulty classes and explains how damage is calculated.
Additional Game Systems
Pathfinder 2e and Savage Worlds receive additional information about their modifiers and results. Other game systems are supported through a general breakdown of dice and bonuses.
Accurate Information
The module only displays information that is actually available in the roll data. If a modifier's source cannot be identified, it will not invent an explanation.
Privacy Settings
Choose who can see roll breakdowns. Keep NPC and GM roll details hidden from players or make them visible depending on your preferences.
Compact Chat Integration
Breakdowns stay collapsed by default to keep the chat clean. Open them whenever you need more details, and they remain open even when the chat updates.
How It Works
Enable the module in your world and roll your dice as usual. A Breakdown button appears on supported chat cards, allowing you to inspect the calculation whenever you want.
You can configure whether breakdowns are visible only to the GM, to the GM and the player who owns the roll, or to everyone.
Compatibility
Supports Foundry VTT v13 and v14 and works with any game system, with additional support for D&D 5e, Crucible, Pathfinder 2e and Savage Worlds.
The module is available in English and German.
