The reason it's so high is because magic items are pretty rare and stat-boosting items are almost non-existent in our campaign, plus we like to keep the group small but still have fairly heroic fights.In a more standard D&D setting, I guess it would depend on what sort of feel you're going for. With 25 points I think the PCs would be just scraping by for the first few levels until the can get some magic items or stat upgrades. With 32 points, I think it would feel more like they were destined to be heroes from the start.</blockquote>
