Rolling with advantage/disadvantage in statblocks?

[dBunkness]

I've been playing around with statblocks for a little bit now, and I can't see to find a way to allow rolling for advantage/disadvantage directly in the statblock.

E.G. -- the phrase +2 to hit, 6 (1d6+8) allows for rolling a d20, and then your d6 for damage. If I change that to anything else like 2d20dh +2 to hit... it will still only roll 1d20.

Is this possible?

Appreciate any help/feedback!

The auto parsing won’t work here.

You’ll have to create a layout (or a copy of the 5e one) and set the layout block to markdown, then enter a dice code block (like dice: 2d20dh)

Or create a new layout block with a custom dice callback (more complicated)

Thanks for the reply!

That will get the jo done for now! I may learn about the custom callbacks later on.

For Q&A/Documentation purposes, is this still the case?
