We gathered here once again to once again complain about that horrible mess that is called combat log.

Let me show you few screenshots in single picture to make it even more confusing.
(Just kidding, it was not my intention, i was just too lazy to upload everything separately, but now looking at it, i realized it may have that effect. :-/ )

So ... first of all, i completely realize that all of this may be just my fault, bcs i either missunderstood, or didnt understand something at all ... so please, if possible, leave your rocks at ease ... at least for now. laugh
And think with me about following questions:

1) Top left screenshot ...
"Dice rolled again!"
What is meaning of this information?
Bcs if you mouseover this message in your combat log ... it does litteraly nothing.

---

2) Top right screenshot ...
First of all ... in what universe 8+1+2=10 ?

Second ... what is DC? And yes, i know you know, this question is rhetorical ...
Maybe i should more ask: Why our combat log dont explain us what, or why is even calculated?

Note that this is allready expanded window, meaning for people who really wish to see under the hood. :-/

3) Bottom left screenshot ...
What i source of that +1 ... and why make it secret? laugh

Also, while we are here ...
Why exactly sucesfull Saving Throw gets all that extra information (armour class, attack roll) ... but failed (top right corner) dont?

Also, while we are here ...
And please feel free to tell me if you really know, but how are Armour Class or Attack Roll even related to Saving Throws?
I mean it ... im completely confused here ...

Also, while we are here ...
Can you tell me who is rolling what?
Bcs i dont really know, and i was there! laugh

4) Bottom right screenshots ...
"Reroll"
I must admit that right now, when i write this i allready figured (i gues?) out that those are rolls from that Disadvantage ...

My attacker was a Halfling, so at first i thought that all theese Rerolls were just her "lucky" racial ... wich seemed odd, since there is not even single 1 and she allways picked lower number.
Then it hit me, she had Disadvantage from Poisoned ...

Now i just wonder if it wouldnt be much and i mean MUCH clearer if that dicerolls would be hidden under that word "Disadvantage" (ideally with written source of that Disadvantage) ... rather than adding something else. :-/

So ... any thoughts?
