I looked it up on Anydice and it would have a 31.25% chance of killing a random Commoner. Unless they get death saves, in which case it's only a 12.5% chance.

Did you account for nat 20 and 1s in that calculus?

[–] Archpawn 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I did not. But if you get a nat 20, it's not a d4, is it? I assume they were accounted for in the death saves, but I just looked up the answer for that part.

D20 to hit, D4 for damage

If my hit die rolls a 20, is the damage not critical, and therefore dealing the most I possibly can?

If we're counting that, how about proficiency bonus? And do we count the chance of the attack missing entirely?
