Hello, so I have a question that i haven't been able to answer for days now. How do you determine if a player uses STR or DEΧ for an attack and damage roll. I know about the finesse feature but how can I for example determine if a fighter uses DEX or STR? I haven't been able to find a table on this. I'd appreciate some guidance <3
First off, welcome to the wonderful world of DMing!!!
Use whichever stat is higher, assuming finesse weapon. If it is a melee weapon without finesse, use STR, even for throwing. If it is a ranged weapon, use DEX.
