The end roll is the final value obtained from an attack, which is determined by comparing the attack strength of the attacker and defensive strength of the defender, plus the Attack versus Defense value of the weapon used against the defender's armor and a random roll between 1 and 100 (called a d100 roll).

Example

The orange number below is the line known as the end roll.

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!
Roundtime: 5 sec.
