Dice Roller

Dice Roller is an dice rolling addon for raid chat for RP events. When it comes to doing DND events, Blizzard's /roll mechanics just aren't that great, especially when you want to do dice rolls like 2d6, 3d10, etc.; it can be a huge hassle to type out multiple /roll 6 or /roll 10. Additionally, it can be a huge hassle to get everyone in your guild to download a mandatory addon.

With this addon all you need is a raid group and a single person with the addon — no one else needs the addon but the DM. It works something like this:

In Raid/Party/Guild chat, type out !XdY(+/-)Z where:

X= number of dice

Y= dice value

(+/-)= sign, works for addition/subtraction!

Z= modifier

The result will look something like this:

Be aware, however: if multiple people have the AddOn enabled while in the same raid group, multiple results will be given. This mod's currently functionality is for one person in the raid to have it on.

The original author, who created this in 2009 for guild chat and some bare functionality, was SharQueDo and he was kind enough to allow me to take over the project after he abandoned it years ago and let me revamp everything. To this day, it retains about 20% of his original code. Thanks a lot to him 🙂
