Message: <blockquote data-quote="Son of the Serpent" data-source="post: 7876918" data-attributes="member: 7015476">I feel like it would still besimple and more accurate though to multiply your strength by 50 for 0 movement though and just gain movement of up to your normal movement speed by 10 for every 15 less than the max multiplier of 50.  Actually i think im gonna start doing that.  Would result in a strength 20 character having normal movement speed at 100 pounds.(Edit:  better idea.  Multiplier of more than 45 up to 50=no movement, more than 35 up to 45=10 feet, more than 20 up to 35=20 feet, up to 20=normal movement)I actually already play with a rule that your performance (for musical instruments) is actually your int, dex, and cha mods added together divided by 3 and rounded up.  Then plus your invested skill rank.  But i dm 3/3.5.  Obviously 5e is not equiped to use that rule completely.Picking locks is dex plus int divided by 2 rounded up plus skill rank.We made stuff like dodging attack (fireballs and swords and whatnot) be dex.I use ability score mod combinations.  It took a few years to figure out how to balance it.  Was harder on the dm end of things.  Not so much for the players.Has resulted in a much more organic and smooth feeling spread of rolls.My group very early on found we were all in agreement that the abilities in d&d were good but just felt odd because some skills are clearly a combination of them.  And some skills have a lean.  Some are "pure" like knowledges.  You only have to do the math once.  At level up.  And we play with a very slow rate of leveling.At any rate i think ill approach them soon about adding something to address the weirdness with strength.  Still gotta figure out how this will effect "hustling" with weight.</blockquote>
