Perkins Crit

The C suffix (capital) maxes one set of damage dice and rolls them again. Named for DM Chris Perkins’ house rule. Guarantees at least maximum single-roll damage.

Examples

Input	Resolves To
2d6C	12 + 2d6
d8C	8 + d8
d12C+5	12 + d12 + 5

Static modifiers are not maxed — only the dice.

Why Use It

Normal crits can feel underwhelming — rolling 4d6 and getting 7 total is disappointing. Perkins crits guarantee a floor of maximum normal damage, making every crit feel impactful.
