[QUOTE="Drowbane, post: 2967056, member: 23396"] [b]High stats[/b] Balance is relative. High stats or no, any DM worth his DM-Screen is going to challenge the party. With that in mind, I prefer high stats for the following reasons: 1) I'm a powergamer, whether or not my min/maxing ways actually net me any sort of real benefit, its fun to do. 2) I enjoy versitility and complex builds. High stats allow you to make a Monk who is actually worth having in the party. High stats allow you to make Multiclass builds without worrying quite as much about M.A.D. issues. 3) I have dozens of builds that I've never had the chance to play, many of these builds end up facing the PCs as "powergamed NPCs". Of course, I save the "kewlest" builds for my own PCs :p Note: I can play with low stats, but my builds will end up being very much "been there, done that", such as a 25pt build barbarian / fighter with Str and Con, some Dex and dump stats... :p [/QUOTE]
