Such "misunderstandings" are far better prevented by having ALL rolls done on the table at the session, in full view of others.Ever since we had a rogue that had not only more HPs then the fighter focused on CON, but more HPs then possible given max rolls and their CON, we just use the average.
Same for Point Buy.

But math errors also happen...Such "misunderstandings" are far better prevented by having ALL rolls done on the table at the session, in full view of others.
I've considered this too- I do wonder how out of whack it'd throw things? Considering how many levels in 5e.. would you have a very good chance of getting high-arse HP pools?I like how WWN does it. Always roll all your HD at every level. If you roll lowers HP than your previous level, you get your previous level’s HP+1.
At first level, you can end up with only 1hp but over time, it averages out or, if you roll luckily on a given level, you can have lots of hp.
I wonder how it would work in 5e.
This exactly.everyone has to roll, but if your result is lower than the average rounded down (e.g., 3 for d6, 4 for d8...), then you get the average rounded down.
