D&D 5E obsolete thread, ignore

[JEB]

EDIT: Poll reworked at @Blue 's request, do not respond to this poll. Instead, go here: D&D 5E - How does your group determine ability scores?

Based off the tangent in this thread... if you play 5E, what's the primary method among members of your group for choosing ability scores at character creation? Mind, this isn't a question about what options you allow, it's about what options get chosen in practice.

(Also note that if you pick a mix, that means all the options listed are about equally popular.)

Can you change the poll to allow multiple choices for those of us in multiple groups that use different methods?

Done!

Oh, wait, you wanted to be able to choose multiple options. I'll have to do a new poll for that. But since we just started, sure. Canceling this one now...

Thanks muchly.

Does 'default score' mean arrays? Don't know why the poll avoids the standard terms...

I went with as close as I could to how they're described in the 5E PHB.

Mods, if you could delete this thread I'd appreciate it, since it's been replaced.

Different method for different group. With my friends in person we usually always roll stats while online play we usually use standard array or point by

Depending on the DM I've done 4d6 drop lowest, points buy, and 3d6+3 capped at 18.
