"Commonly used in evenly matched pvp battles. When teams see no clear winner is in sight, a mutual agreement may be formed between the parties. The 2 parties #1 spot will roll 100 (/roll 100)sided die, the party with the lowest number /resign’s" I have never, ever seen this done. Not ever. The only ways I've heard roll used (besides its dictionary definition) is what Skuld said or "rolling" the opposing team (defeating them easily). As for reroll, that term is usually used when you need to recreate the character (due to a mistake in chosen items or somesuch (not used much anymore due to new item system for pvp)).

 * People do this in HA, but not really anywhere else. --Fyren 18:22, 27 November 2006 (CST)
 * I take it you never have played in hero battles. about 75% of the matches I get in the other players asks me to roll. Same concept except this is for a cheap way of getting victory points.-- Sefre [[image:Prepared_Shot.jpg|22px|]] 19:50, 24 February 2007 (CST)
 * People were not rolling in hero battles then. --Fyren 19:53, 24 February 2007 (CST)
 * I actually was in a RA battle that had gone on for 20 minutes, and that was the one time I have seen rolling in RA, since no one was winning.

i've always wondered why ANet put it in. it doesn't seem to have much use beyond cute factor, and it seems to have all kinds of abuses. --Honorable Sarah 21:39, 18 March 2007 (CDT)

Automatic Resign?
Does the "losing" team automatically /resign, or is it up to the party leader and all other party members to be loyal to the agreement and /resign themselves? --MagickElf666 01:31, 22 May 2007 (CDT)
 * The latter obviously. --Kale Ironfist 03:08, 22 May 2007 (CDT)

Rolling is also sometimes referred to as killing the other team's party members, and pushing them back. 71.240.31.100 00:09, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Skillset
I have also recently (especially in TA) seen this used to mean "run" or "load" as in "What skills are you gonna roll?" -- similar to a PvP char creating, but applying to anyone. Have others observed this too?


 * More often than not. I've seen it used everywhere; PvE, GvG, AB.. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]] -- (contribs) &emsp;(talk)  14:24, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
