please, what is the safe way to roll the dice
Really tired of having the dice bounce outside of the shop entrance and having the shopkeeper aggro on me. Insanely stupid design decision imo, but at least I want to know how to minimize this problem

Pick up a die, throw it upwards against a wall. Seemed pretty safe to me
I feel like I've done that every time, but the last two times one of the dice kept sliding after hitting the ground and exited the shopkeeper area. It's hard to test because they're somewhat infrequent and I don't want to waste runs experimenting, but yeah, I'm just not having consistency with anything.

I always throw the dice downwards on the ground, towards the laser barrier. This strat haven't backfired yet :D

I throw them onto the wall opposite of the laser beam, upwards toward the corner and run away before they land. I've only gotten hit once but it works very well, and I've played a ton of dice

Pick it up, go close to the doorway then throw towards the electric wall.

What I do is just toss them against the back wall, and if you really don't want to get hit you can just walk out of the store until the dice stops moving

Uh, just died following these suggestions. I threw the dice upwards, opposite from where the shopkeeper was, and it triggered him, no idea why since it wasn't close to him! Game over. Love this game, but sometimes things don't make any sense...

If you look on the patch notes they lowered the force of the dice after it hits an eletric wall, meaning that you can pretty safely just throw the dice directly on it and you will be fine.

I don't know why people are having problems with this. I've done the dice game many times now and not once was I aggroed because the dice bounced so hard that it went out of the shop.

All I do is throw it against the laser. No tilting the analog, and while standing still.

This thread was made pre-patch. You're not having problems because you're playing after they fixed it.
