I tend to stay away from the combat log. I don’t need to be reminded how much my dice hate me.

I wonder why they decided to crank up fall damage compared to tabletop. A fall from that height in 5e is 3d6 bludgeoning

Probably to make it feel more realistic. It would be strange if you could fall 50 feet and only take 17 damage

Probably to make maps require less verticality for the mechanics they wanted. It'd be pretty hard to manage a camera angle at larger discrepancies for the same function. Either that or to make ranged builds more viable with major verticality in maps
