this has been bouncing in my head for weeks now and for my sanity i need to let it out (i’m sorry in advance) - touches on sensitive topics
being drunk gives you disadvantage on dex and cha checks - in this case specifically includes intimidation. if you were trying to intimidate someone while drunk, you have disadvantage on the roll; if you are granted advantage for the reason of being drunk (ie
more likely to engage in domestic violence
), then the advantage/disadvantage cancel out, making it as effective as if you were sober. in cases where being drunk should be more intimidating due to someone’s history
of being more abusive while drunk
, would the dc for the check just be lowered compared to if they were sober, or would the advantage somehow override the disadvantage?
