Benefit: Once per encounter, when you are attempting a nearly impossible task (any task at which you need to roll a 20 on 1d20 to succeed), you may roll two dice instead of one, taking the better result. You can use this ability when you choose, whether you are making an attack roll, saving throw, skill or ability check, level check, or any other 1d20 roll that you make, as long as you can succeed on that particular check only by rolling a 20 on the die.
