[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 6624326"] I'd keep it too. Use the 5E standard human, now I'm rocking 18, 16, 14, 14, 14, 12. Nothing shabby about those stats would work well with any class in the game. I'd be concerned if someone rolled 12, 10, 8, 8, 6, 5 and kept their character over taking the point-buy. Personally, I could easily play with a group who had all 20's and each a +1 weapon. I'd simply up the CR of the monsters they face. Stats, by themselves are unimportant. It's sort of the old "not the size but what you do with it" axiom. A player can have great stats awesome weapons, you name it, but if they play like a moron they'll die like a mook. And of course, a well-coordinated party of mooks designed to cover each others weaknesses and played tactically with no magic items will succeed far and beyond what their stats would suggest. Sure, there's always the "perfect storm" danger of a party with great stats and great gameplay absolutely wrecking the game but there are available solutions to that as well. [/QUOTE]
