Message: <blockquote data-quote="med stud" data-source="post: 497397" data-attributes="member: 1211">If we put logic aside, this change would make Dex to powerful at the cost of Str. With these rules, a Dex fighter with Power Attack would always do better then a pure Str fighter.Also, in D&D it seems like Str is the athletic ability score, which grants the ability to climb and jump. That means that Str is more then lifting heavy things, it's also muscle control and explosive strength, two factors that you find in 100 % of the successful warriors of the world and history. Dex is more reaction speed and coordination, two factors that are very good for a warrior too, but not as important (compare a heavy weight boxer with a pingis player, for example).The last sentiment, though, is only true if you share my view on the ability scores, orf course.</blockquote>
