Hit Points (HP) represent your character's toughness and how much damage they can take before being knocked unconscious. In D&D 5e, HP depends on your class's hit die, Constitution modifier, and character level.[citation:3][citation:4]

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate HP in D&D 5e?

At level 1, take the maximum of your hit die and add your CON modifier. For each subsequent level, roll your hit die (or take the average) and add CON. Add any bonuses from feats or racial traits.[citation:4][citation:6]

What is the average HP for a d10 hit die?

The average roll of a d10 is 5.5, which rounds up to 6. This is the value used in the "average" HP method (half hit die + 1 = 6).[citation:4][citation:6]

Does the Tough feat stack with Hill Dwarf?

Yes! Tough gives +2 HP per level, and Hill Dwarf gives +1 HP per level. They stack, and both apply to your total character level (not class level). This can add up to +60 HP at level 20.[citation:8]

How does multiclassing affect HP?

Your HP is calculated separately for each class. At level 1, you take the max of your starting class's hit die. For each level in a class, you roll that class's hit die (or take the average) and add CON.[citation:4][citation:6]

Is this HP calculator accurate for 2024/2026 rules?

Yes! The base HP calculation remains unchanged in the 2024 rules update. All formulas and values are compatible with both 2014 and 2024/2026 D&D 5e rulesets.[citation:6][citation:8]
