Message: <blockquote data-quote="(Psi)SeveredHead" data-source="post: 1560086" data-attributes="member: 1165">25 point buy is the standard - that's why the classed creatures in the DMG and MM use it.I use 28 point buy unless I'm testing something, then 25 point buy.I hate rolling. I rolled a character for a recent campaign. I begged my DM to re-roll because I didn't even have a stat of 15. Or 14. Ewww... If a spellcaster doesn't have a 15 then he must rely on magic items to cast his highest level spells. Again, ew.The next time I rolled 18 17 15 15 15 12. That was also ridiculous. That character would clearly be the most powerful character in the group. I lost that character sheet and just created a 28 point buy character for the next session, which solved two problems simultaneously, IMO.It reminded me why I dropped 2e to play ALTERNITY - the players never knew there was a dice-rolling system in that game, and I never informed them of it.</blockquote>
