Feats as diversification's reward
It's a change in the way feats are handled. I will definitely recommend to my players that they look at the feats before they buy their stats, rather than after.

I was reading this thread when I arrived at this conclusion. You can either optimize stats-wise (maxing out your three main stats) and take less-than-useful feats, or you can diversify your stats, and use feats to make up for some of that usefulness.mlund said:I think veteran players of 3.X are going to need to adjust to the new paradigm a bit. The current configuration of feats rewards characters with more diverse stats - possibly their only reward.
Running with random rolls or optimized-for-first-level point-buys may paint you into a corner when it comes to feats. That's probably part of the reason why they recommend the 16, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10 array.
