Having high stats is like starting out with a bunch of powerful magic items.-I would disagree. You fighter/wizard has an 18 in their stat. I have never found it to be like having a magic item. Sure its better than a 14 but combat is hard. FYI Please don't think I'm fighting with you on thisaverage party then I had experience is  3+.  in 5e how often the party gets into trouble mostly due to terrible rolling. My 18 dex rogue isn't dominating the battlefield . Even if I was a 100% cheat and had 18 in all rolls i'm still not mopping the floor at first level  2. If a character starts with a 20 then they have nowhere to go from there for their main stat. That's it, that's the max. It's better to have progression for a character.-Also disagree with this. So my dwarf has an 18 and gets a +2 making it a 20. I have never felt I had nowhere to golow stats wizard etc the game is much harder and even with additional HP you die low stat fighter-especially first level-you hit less and die-first level you have junk armor and most of those negate having a good dex ive been playing this game for a long time (mostly low magic campaigns so maybe that's the difference). Most parties don't have magic items until 5th level)</blockquote>
