[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 8865834, member: 6801845"] But we already make the decision of hitting hard or targeting weak spots now when PC builds are either strength based or dex based. I understand what you're trying to do, I just don't think this hits the mark. While the tropes and depictions of fighting that we've all absorbed may not be particularly realistic, they generally fall into two categories of the brute or the acrobat, maybe with a few other oddball exceptions here and there like depicting Sherlock Holmes using intelligence to predict opponent's moves. But as is? I just see an extra layer. How would people know which to choose? If I've maxed out 1 attribute to 20 and tanked the other so it's 8, there would have to be massive difference in effectiveness of the two choices because otherwise I'm just going to stick with the one I'm good at. That and it only affects people that rely on martial attacks, it's kind of a nerf for them because they can't focus in one over the other while spellcasters still just have to focus on 1 attribute.
