Talk:Attack roll

How does attack roll actually work in NWN2? I'm looking at combat logs and it is very confusing. You get something like:

Bob attacks Troll: *hit* : (10 + 9 = 19) Bob attacks Troll: *miss* : (9 + 5 = 14) Bob attacks Troll: *hit* : (8 + 11 = 19) Bob attacks Troll: *hit* : (17 + 4 = 21)

Bob's attack bonuses, as shown on the character sheet, are +13/+8.

I know the first values are d20 rolls, but why do the second values (9, 5, 11, 4) change? From the description in the Attack roll page, it should just add your modifiers but apparently it doesn't do this.
