[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 8098405, member: 22779"] Not quite sure what you mean? Did you mean that there wasn't a balance issue before this new rule? Ok. Cool. So what? This rule wasn't made to address a balance issue. It was made to allow more creativity and freedom during chargen. And, for a change, it appears that allowing more freedom during chargen does not create balance issues (which certainly wasn't true in earlier editions) and simply allows for a wider variety of characters. How is that not a win? I can still play the stereotypical elf or dwarf or whatever. That hasn't been lost. And, doing so does not put me at any disadvantage. Or, I can play an older elf, for example, that has been several different kinds of tradesperson before becoming an adventurer. And, my character sheet will reflect that. Again, what is the problem here? [/QUOTE]
