How to Talk to the Bot

The bot responds to slash commands, DMs, replies, and mentions. You can also use a command prefix. It's dot (.) by default

Using the Command Prefix .:

  • .3d6 + 2d8 - 5

Using /roll:

  • /roll command: 3d6 + 2d8 - 5

Using a mention:

  • @Bogsy's Dice Bot 3d6 + 2d8 - 5

Embedding a Roll

You can also embed rolls into other messages. Use the command prefix at the start of the message, then backticks or the # character to embed a role, like this:

  • .The orc hits you for `d12 + 3` damage.
  • .The orc hits you for #d12 + 3# damage.

Dice Notation

A dice set is written like this: #d#.

  • For example, 3d6 means roll three 6-sided dice and add them together. = If you are rolling a single die, you can omit the first number. For example, d20 means roll a single 20-sided die.

You can add and subtract dice sets.

  • For example, 2d20 - d4 + 2d6 - 6 means roll two 20-sided dice and add them up, then subtract a 4-sided die, add two 6-sided dice, then subtract 6 from the total.

You can add a description to the end of a roll using quotation marks.

  • For example, d8 + 3 + 2d6 "sneak attack" names the roll "sneak attack".
