Why isn’t tiered successes an optional rule in DnD? I can’t come up with a reason why how effective a character is at a SC/ST isn’t changed based on how far away or far above a target number a character gets. Ie if the save is a 15 why don’t i kind of save on a 10? Reasonable optional rule – honestly just hadn’t thought to implement something like that
