The range of potential results is often given in parentheses, especially for [[#Damage rolls|damage rolls]]. For example, a single dart from a {{SAI|Magic Missile|h=20px}} spell does {{InfoBlob|1d4+1 (2-5) Force damage}}. This means rolling 1d4 and adding 1 to the result, giving a possible total of 2 to 5 points of damage. | The range of potential results is often given in parentheses, especially for [[#Damage rolls|damage rolls]].
