Percy's Tinkering Checks February 01, 2016 / Singing Badger. Anonymous asks: What does Percy add too his tinker rolls other than his proficiency bonus? Updated: It depends. From the D&D website: “Tool use is not tied to a single ability, since proficiency with a tool represents broader knowledge of its use. For example, the DM might ask you.
In particular, they're tiny, clockwork, gadgets, so it seems reasonable to assume that tinker's tools specifically refer to the tools you'd need to work with small mechanical devices, rather than large vehicles or fabrics. More generally, just because the players can envision how to build something does not mean the characters can. Woah that is awesome! That helped a lot! It really helps me picture the kind of character I want, yet as I am kind of new to DnD it would be hard for me think of how to use my environment as efficient as that! But thank you for your input!
