[QUOTE="5ekyu, post: 7796103, member: 6919838"] As a GM any trait tell you to roll randomly is the same as me saying "it is "flavor" not "stew". Do that means I am going to be basing a lot more of the key moments not on checks but on proficiencies and features - with checks vs DC more for flourish than determination if meaningful stuff. You should, if smart, also figure out that taking an ASzi is not a smart move. Heck, the skilled feat msy be awesome. I just dont get the "roll random thrn we all use the same array." Seems worst of both worlds. As player, I make lotsa choices that just font depend on scores. Thst means magic and magic where it foes not matter as much about saves or attacks. Illusions are pretty toast hy ths time checks get made anyway, Fog Cloud has no save, buffs, stuff like that. Likrly as not, bard or druid is my preferred direction. Once played a character named Fidhbait who had so terribly scores it was laughable. Played him right alongside the GM fiancee who had scores do very far above the norm equally laughable. But we both rolled thrm at a gtoup session... wait... no... yeah... she rolled hers there eith the hm right before we got there. Yeah, that made it do much more fun. [/QUOTE]
