Since I've started using fixed DC (10- fail, 11-17 partial success, 18+ full success), I was playing around with various ways to shift the numbers to generate more partial successes on average, while still allowing +0 characters to achieve full success. The most radical solution I had in my list was to switch to 2d10, which I recently tested, just as a joke.

But, to my surprise, it worked. Like, worked very well. It breaks nothing, while seriously reducing σ. The only bug I've encountered is that automatic misses just never happen, but I'm honestly fine with that.

I guess it's not something I'll be more than experimenting (it'd be hard to explain people why in the nine hells am I using 2d10 instead of d20), but that's still some food for thoughts.
