Coding Great Weapon Fighting

[Olodrin]

This Fighting style allows you to reroll 1s and 2s on damage dice.

In the 4e syntax, this was covered under the brutal property - is there an equivalent in the 5e syntax?

In the weapon property put REROLL 2

A quick search (using the "Site Search" link at the top of this page) for "great weapon fighting" returned: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...eapon-Fighting

Note - you won't see a dice reroll when using the "reroll X" property, but the number returned for the dice will be "re-rolled".

So Reroll 1 would just do the 1s rolled?

[JohnD]

So if the 2nd roll is a 1 or a 2, it still is used?

I see a nice opportunity for a magic item here.

Would be a nice thing for many tweaks on items, keeping power in line, but still being cool.

A curse Reroll 20 effect would have to be GM visibility only.

I believe the dice is a different color on a re-roll.

Reroll isn't an effect, it's an entry in the weapon properties section.

I believe the dice is a different color on a re-roll.

I'm not seeing a different die colour. FG reports "RESULT MOD" in the roll result string if a re-roll is triggered. For example, the following re-rolls and gets a 5 on the re-roll:

[DAMAGE (M)] Handaxe [REROLL 2] [RESULT MOD D1=5] [TYPE: slashing (1d6+2=7)]

Oops your, right Trenloe. I must have been thinking about brutal from the 4E ruleset. Too bad they didn't do the same thing in 5E, its not necessary but its good feedback that the roll is working right.
