But again, things like Shield or Entropic Ward or Parry or sometimes inspiration (in the right circumstance) can thwart it again.)Įnemy is a college of swords Bard Multiclassed with Bladesinger Wizard. However if you succeed and they cancel your success using their abilities, you can override them with Convergent. Using this logic, Convergent future beats Lucky feat and halfling trait in some cases, also divination wizard's portent if the enemy uses them to make you fail and you override them (every time since Portent HAS to be made BEFORE the roll). Generally speaking as per RAW - the Convergent Future user can wait after the outcome is declared before using his ability. Also if the DM in the example above rolled better on inspiration (7+), the wizard would not succeed as he can only change the d20 result and can't bring it below 1. If the enemy succeeded on the roll and didn't use the inspiration (rolled a 9 for 16 total and didn't use inspiration) and the wizard changed the roll to 7 (14 total), the enemy could still add his inspiration to succeed. As those things aren't mutually exclusive, depends in what order you declare. The Convergent rule says that you can change it after the roll (nor specifying whether or not after knowing the result).

(Here it is a little tricky - the inspiration rule says you can add after the roll but before declaring success or failure. The wizard changes the roll to 2 and the enemy plummets to his death at the bottom of the pit. DM rolls a 3 and decides to use the inspiration for additional 5, bringing the total to 15, a success. DM rolls D20 and adds modifiers (enemy has +7 to athletics let's say) and has a d10 inspiration on him. Wizard takes exhaustion.Įnemy is trying to escape the pc's, disengages, proceeds to jump across a chasm to get away. Wizard uses his reaction to change the roll on the d20 to 12 and his ally succeeds. Rolls a 7 on d20 and 2 on d4 for 15 total and fails. the Ally has +6 (+1 ability modifier, +5 Proficiency) to Con save and has Bless on him (+1d4 to save). Wizard's ally makes a Con save vs being petrified for example. Can use Portent or Lucky at this moment.ģ, The Chronurgy wizard uses Convergent Future as a reaction to change the roll to "just succeeded" or "just failed, if possible within the 1-20 span.Ĥ, The enemy can use his reaction (if he has any) to further modify the roll (if he is able to), possibly changing the outcome again. However it's not possible to change the outcome to more than 20 on a d20 roll.Ģ,Target adds modifiers to the roll and sees if it succeeded or failed.In many cases it depends in what order you declare. It's quite simple in theory but can get a little tangled.
