    I feel a good rule of thumb is

    1. Normal Action -> No roll
    2. Normal Action + Complication -> Take 20
    3. Normal Action + Complication + time pressure -> Roll a check

      I do miss the old “take 10/20” options and I still use them mentally. A blacksmith might mess up the occasional horseshoe, but do we really need to roll if it isn’t story critical? Nah.
