Baldur's Gate 3

This pains me.

One time in a tabletop DND game, the party wiped over bad rolls. It was partly my fault for over tuning the fight, but also bad luck. The party had a potion that was like "you can make an extra full attack this turn, all your hits do an extra 1d10, and you're hasted. Afterwards, you are paralyzed for 1d4+1 turns".

Fighter drinks it and proceeded to miss like 6 attacks in a row. I think he needed to roll above like 13 and just couldn't do it.

This is also why I prefer games that give players more tools to tell the dice to fuck off, like fate points in Fate or willpower in CofD.

"How would you like to waste this particular turn?"

My least favorite fight in the game. On my last honor mode run, Isobel started her turn by triggering Attacks of Opportunity from both Marcus and one of the undead. The second one paralyzed her, of course. She's lucky I happened to have a cleric in that party that could Sanctuary right after, otherwise she would have been gone.

That's XCOM, baby.

Oh, wait...

Really screws with you when you miss multiple 70+% rolls in a row

Have you tried using a bucket full of water?

I want to see those detailed rolls.

Marcus' AC is only 17 so you had some horrible luck.

Have you tried not missing?
