D20 Test

Source: Player’s Handbook (2024) p. 364. Available in the SRD and the Free Rules (2024)

D20 Tests encompass the three main d20 rolls of the game: ability checks, attack rolls, and saving throws. If something in the game affects D20 Tests, it affects all three of these rolls. The DM determines whether a D20 Test is warranted in a given circumstance.
