Ah, skill checks in Dungeons & Dragons. Skill checks are possibly some of the most common rolls players and dungeon masters will make in D&D, and the rules around skill checks are perhaps some of the easiest to get mixed up. But that’s not necessarily the game master’s fault; the D&D skill check rules are perhaps a bit complex and not explained very well in the Player’s Handbook. In this video, we go over the 15 most common skill check mistakes in D&D and how to avoid them.
