Guidance Tips & Notes

• The bonus from guidance can be easy to miss, because it's applied silently. Hovering over the die roll with the mouse will show an unnamed bonus being applied.
• Differences from D&D 5th Edition: In 5E, guidance only affects one ability check during the duration rather than all of them.
