The end roll is the final value obtained from an attack after adding up all combat factors. End rolls above 100 are hits, while end rolls of 100 or below are misses. For successful hits, the positive difference between the end roll and 100 is known as the endroll success margin.

You swing a gleaming vultite battlesword at a thunder troll!
   AS: +195 vs DS: +49 with AvD: +42 + d100 roll: +4 = +192
   ... and hit for 53 points of damage!
   Strong slash to the thunder troll's right hand cuts deep.
   The thunder troll is stunned!
