So I succeeded the DC99 check with a crit success (it was my only success in these checks). Later, at the end, in the very final fight, the netherbrain started with about 60 less hp and a debuff that said that it was very surprised I could succeed this check (not the exact words but you get the idea).
Iirc it started with 246hp instead of 300. I don’t remember if the debuff did something else.
Except for the one check in Act 3. That still fails even with a nat 20.
It actually succeed, and it has an effect later.
Later?! What is it?

Ah, cool. Thanks 👍
Reduced health for the affected entity.
I savescummed a lot through my first playthrough. This time I didn’t. Failed the first 2 rolls but hit the nat 20 on this one. That was cool.
I saved there and was tempted to go back and scum it after beating the game and now I’m glad I didn’t sit there trying to get it
The 99 check?
I was kinda sad that failed.
I was tempted to scum that check (rollback after beating game) just to see what happened but I guess it would have been a waste of time
And the one in Act 1 where you fail what you’re trying to regardless of the check, making it pointless.
Shhhh
