: An [[Attack]] Roll is the first core mechanic of combat in a D20 game, such as Epic Path. If successful, an Attack is followed by a [[Glossary_of_Terms#Damage_Roll | Damage Roll]] To make an attack roll, you roll a 20-sided die (called a D20), and then add to that number all relevant modifiers (both positive and negative) to generate an attack roll, or a to-hit number. That number is then compared against the Armor Class of the creature you were attacking. If your Attack Roll is '''''equal to or greater than''''' the target's Armor Class, you successfully hit and may make a damage roll (see below) and apply any other effects.
