Effect

Bane

Bane subtracts 1d4 from the target’s attack rolls and saving throws.

Stage 2 · Reading the situationSpells and concentration

It makes attacks less reliable and other harmful effects harder to resist. This is different from Disadvantage, which selects the lower of two dice.

Spells and items that apply Bane have different conditions. Check the recipient, any required save, and the duration.

An attack roll decides whether an attack hits. The total must meet or exceed the target’s Armour Class.

Stage 1 · Combat basicsAttacks and dice

Roll a d20 and add the applicable ability modifier, proficiency bonus, and other attack bonuses. The weapon or spell determines which ability applies.

Damage is calculated after the hit is decided. A larger attack-roll total does not itself deal more damage.

Add the relevant ability modifier, proficiency, and other bonuses to the die. Meeting the target number is enough to succeed.

Attack rolls, saving throws, and ability checks use different bonuses. A bonus to one does not automatically apply to the others.

Roll a d20 using the ability named by the effect, then add the relevant modifier and saving-throw bonuses. Meeting the Difficulty Class succeeds.
