[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8374088, member: 23751"] It's time to start accusing you of Strawman again, because I literally said the opposite of that. You altered what I said and then argued against your fictional creation. Stop it. Not really. It's being met with fear or at least concern(not by me) that it will become the default for races, which would be bad. I haven't seen anyone say that there shouldn't be the optional rule to have floating bonuses if that floats(hahaha!) your boat. Good answers have been given to you. Your personal preference doesn't make them bad. It doesn't have to be at level one. No matter what level you get it at, it's a learned bonus, so it counts just the same. Setting specific changes to races are not relevant. We're having a discussion about generalities. It doesn't. I don't know where you are getting that from. Check out the weight classes. There's a reason why they are divided up by a few pounds and not 15. The only weight class to be more than 8 pounds heavier than the prior class is when you go from Light Heavyweight to Cruiserweight. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.britannica.com/sports/boxing/Weight-divisions[/URL] Why? As I said in a prior post, I'm not against adventurers have an extra floating +2 to represent being exceptional. Throw that into dex as a dwarf. It doesn't matter. Dwarves are hardy and get +2 con. The secondary stats are not really relevant. Heck, you can make up another dwarven subrace that gets +2 dex and it would be fine. Dex is not the stat that is part of the dwarven identity. Con is.
