Please don't post debates about the best way to generate stats and badwronggun. And no thoughts on statistics schmistical stuff, please. I just want to know your current method of generating stats.
"...I let them choose, and offer a different way o rolling stats. I like to expose the players early to rules as guidelines.
My current option in 5E, is to let them roll pairs of stats six times, in order. Then they choose a high stat from the pair and then they have to choose a low stat from another pair.
Example, Green is a high choice, red is a low choice
STR 15,16
DEX 10,11
CON 13,9
INT 13,14
WIS 12,17
CHA 9,12
So the player would wind up with:
STR 16
DEX 10
CON 13
INT 13
WIS 17
CHA 9
..."
You can choose the high and low choices in any manner, but you have to choose a low choice when you choose a high choice, and yes, I copied pasted cuz I am lazy
I won't link to the 'book' methods but here are some links to some atypical methods posted in this thread:
