Hi All! I am having trouble. Sometime between our last session and yesterday’s my dice type + modifier is missing. I am playing a Level 7 Monk, Drunken Master and when I go to deal damage with Unarmed Strike it just says 3 Bludgeoning instead of 1d6+DEX - how would this have changed and how to do I put it back? I often play using the dice of the site because it’s easier, lol. Any help would be appreciated 🙃
Gonna guess you changed a setting or something. Can you link your character sheet, please?

At 1st level, your practice of martial arts gives you mastery of combat styles that use unarmed strikes and monk weapons, which are shortswords and any simple melee weapons that don’t have the two-handed or heavy property.
You gain the following benefits while you are unarmed or wielding only monk weapons and you aren’t wearing armor or wielding a shield:
You can use Dexterity instead of Strength for the attack and damage rolls of your unarmed strikes and monk weapons.
You can roll a d4 in place of the normal damage of your unarmed strike or monk weapon. This die changes as you gain monk levels, as shown in the Martial Arts column of the Monk table.
When you use the Attack action with an unarmed strike or a monk weapon on your turn, you can make one unarmed strike as a bonus action. For example, if you take the Attack action and attack with a quarterstaff, you can also make an unarmed strike as a bonus action, assuming you haven’t already taken a bonus action this turn.
Certain monasteries use specialized forms of the monk weapons. For example, you might use a club that is two lengths of wood connected by a short chain (called a nunchaku) or a sickle with a shorter, straighter blade (called a kama). Whatever name you use for a monk weapon, you can use the game statistics provided for the weapon in the Weapons section.

The most common way to lose Martial Arts like that is by equipping armor and/or a shield.

so i just need to unequip and risk the bites XD
Your current Unarmored Defense AC is better than the AC you get from leather armor anyway (13+DEX vs 11+DEX).
