How many Natural 1's (Critical Failure) have you rolled in a row?
In a persuasion check, I rolled three Natural 1's in a row. The odds of that happening are staggeringly low. I don't think I've ever rolled that bad in tabletop. Used up my inspiration dice, but it was worth seeing how many I could fail.

I've seen it in tabletop. That was the first guy's game ever. The guy failed all of his rolls and pulled 3 ones in a row...
Difficult first experience.
2 one time my brother had advantage and rolled both as well lol lucky feat works great till it doesn't haha
It's a 1 in 400 chance to roll the same number twice on a D20 and 3 times is 1 in 8000 lol

2 in a row.

inspiration and lucky are your friends.

I'm waiting to roll double 1 on my halfling.

3 in a row between Gale and my main character while trying to examine a memory crystal! Ridiculous. Still doesn't beat my record of 4 in a row in Pathfinder Kingmaker though......

3, and one time I had advantage and rolled double 1s. That's a 1/400 chance lmao. Not complaining, but it was hilarious.

2 the most so far. Are you playing with karmic dice turned off? I am lol

Worst I've had so far is when I had advantage and I rolled two one's and then inspiration rolled and got two ones again.

Welp, looks like I'm evolving and for the rest of the game I'll just look gothic.

3. I died laughing because it was a persuasion check for something companion related.

Never rolled more than one critical failure in this game. But in PNP we rolled 3 in a row a few months ago. That was bad for the party.

I once rolled a nat 1. Didn't think much of it, but gave myself advantage just to be sure.
Two nat 1's.

It was then that I decided that my success was not meant to be and that Beshaba hated me.

I hope Arabella sleeps peacefully in the afterlife.

Enough - and often enough - to know that Larian's 'dice-rolling' code is not truly RNG. Three or four times in a row? Consistently(!) throughout of hundreds of hours of playtime?

Statistical probability be damned, who's going to defend the idea the devs haven't included some RNG protection or abuse system to artificially enhance the perceived difficulties of the fights? The code is already in place to manipulate RNG with Kharmic Dice; why would anyone think the devs too innocent to take advantage of that?

/flame ware on

I have seen misses on a 50% success 15 times in a row. I have seen misses on a 75% success 10 times in a row. Yes, I counted. These dice rolls are rigged.

My finest moment was when I rolled with advantage on a really trivial check. Both 1s.

i count every low roll as a critical failure
