Outputs the damage string of a primary melee or bite attack (e.g. 3d6+2) when called, based on the CR of the monster. Primarily used inside the Monster template. Call as follows:

{{Primary-Dmg}}

Parameters (all are optional):

  • (unnamed) = modify CR with a positive or negative number. -2 lowers CR by two before outputting damage value.
  • n = modify numeric value with a positive or negative number. "n=-2" lowers damage value by 2 before outputting the damage value.
  • op = modify the operand. Values are "op=mult" and "op=div", allowing you to multiply or divide by parameter two's value. Default is addition (with negative numbers subtracting).
  • d = modify the die size. Primary damage, if melee, uses a d8 by default. Primary damage, if natural, uses a d10 by default. Values are: d=4, d=6, d=8, d=10, d=12.

Examples:

  • {{Primary-Dmg|-2}} - outputs damage as though CR was two lower than actual.
  • {{Primary-Dmg|n = 2|op = mult|d = 10}} - outputs damage double normal value, expressed as using d10's.
