    You guys clearly forgot how hard it was to get up that rope in gym class.

      Nah, we know it’s hard. But if failure has no consequence in a given scene, then why not skip over and just assume it was done?

        Pretty sure the consequence of failing to climb the rope is 1d6 bludgeoning damage per 10 feet fallen

          Failing to climb is not the same as falling off. I could safely go down a rope any day. But climbing more than a foot? Not happening.

            In boots it is quite easy (if time consuming) to worm your way up by wrapping the rope on one foot and stepping on it with the other.

      Huh, I geuss I was an outlier being a skinny fuck with decent core strength, cuz the rope was easy when you paid attention to how you need put the rope around your feet.

        When a 10 is your average stat and the wizard dumped Strength and Dexterity at 8, you can bet your ass they’d struggle to get up a rope. Think about how strong and nimble the average person is, and how much they would struggle. That’s a 10.
