[/LEFT] [LEFT]Clunky in what way?[/LEFT] [LEFT]What’s not clear about the class or makes orientation a difficult task? [/LEFT] I’ve encountered this claim here & there, but constructive suggestions on the actual problems or remedy never came. [LEFT] [/LEFT] None of my 8 stats can be referred to as “mostly dump”. [LEFT] [/LEFT] [LEFT] How so? What do you find crucially missing?[/LEFT] [LEFT] [/LEFT] 6 is purely traditional. [LEFT]In OD&D Cha was pure dump for everybody, Wis was useful only Clerics and Int only for Magic Users (which had absolutely nothing useful to do with Str).[/LEFT] [LEFT]In 3e every attribute can augment every stat with the appropriate feat (gave up any attempt to analyze 1e & 2e). [/LEFT] They create more options to mold your character as you envision it and each selection has its advantages over other selections during gametime, and... you don’t get your weapon prof shoved down your throat.
