Change this line inside the constructor of Dice class (the class level variable mRandom will remain null otherwise):

Hello,

It still says NullPointerException when i call AttackValue (after i changed the Random mRandom to just mRandom)
Please let me know if you can see something else that could be the problem.

Same mistake with Dice in the constructor of class Hero...you declare a local variable of type Dice there, but probably want to assign it to your instance variable.

One problem I see is about the missing code tags.

Next, you instead of refereing to instance variables in the constructors, create new automatic ones.

D Ogranos - do you mean mSides?

like Dice mDice = new Dice(mSides)? (in the constructor of Hero)

or should i change the type of Dice?

I think ive fixed it!!! Thank you so much. I made the method create a new Dice. Allthough now it is returning the same numbers, but that isnt a big problem. Thank you!!
