[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 9190765, member: 2525"] Prior to covid during our last in-person game. I've been using point buy since then because it was just easier for me to do that for online games. Three people opted to roll anyway. Two are below the default array / point buy and one is above. I don't recall the scores other than to say one ability score was above what point buy allows at 17 and two were below what point buy allows at below 8 and I just don't recall the other three scores but remember they didn't seem all that important other than I think my con was slightly lower than I wished. I don't even know if it was total above or below what point buy / array would be since I don't think I ever tallied a total based on point buy other than it had at least three scores outside the margins. Yes he survived fine and made it to whatever level we all stopped. In one of my current games, of the three who rolled, two are below point buy/array and one is above. One is very below and it's a running joke but she's doing fine (I think she has a 15 in her primary caster stat and a whole lot below 10). All have survived. [/QUOTE]
