We use Discord & Avrae and I use the encounter feature here.
When players roll during combat I can see their results in the channel.
When monsters roll I have to choose:
1. Only seeing the roll myself. Problem is the full results show up in another channel (the avrae server) which means I have to keep clicking back and forth while trying to run combat.
2. Turn it to group. Problem is then I broadcast the monster name, modifiers, etc to everyone.
It would be nice to have some in between where the results still go to our campaign channel for ease but some info is hidden:
1. The monster name is partially hidden or each monster gets a number, etc. Greater Zombie could be "G****** *****e". Or just "Monster".
2. The final tally is shown, not the roll with modifier. So if the monster rolls 7+4, only 11 shows up in Discord.
3. The attack just shows "attack" and not the specifics.
So a slam attack by a Greater Zombie that is to hit 7+4 and damage 3+4 bludgeoning & 2+3 necrotic passes as:
