[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 9347367, member: 23751"] My players like to play heroes, so this is how we do it. The players pick two stats to roll 5d6-2L, two stats to roll 4d6-L, and two stats to roll 3d6 straight up. The 5d6-2L tends to go in the main stats for the class. Barbarians commonly see strength and con for instance. The 4d6-L go in important to the character for some reason stats. And the 3d6 are the "dump" stats. However, since it's all randomly rolled, I've seen "dump" stats of 17 or 18, and 5d6-2L stats of 8 or 9. After the stats are rolled they get to make one swap of stats. That way if really bad luck strikes and the 5d6-2L roll is bad, they can swap a better number in from one of the other stats. After all the above is done, if the players stat total doesn't add up to 78, they get to roll 1d6 for each point under 78 they rolled and add +1 to that stat. Stats are numbered in order 1 to 6 with strength at the top and charisma at the bottom. An added point cannot bring a stat above 18 and if that would happen, the 1d6 is re-rolled until an appropriate stat is indicated. [/QUOTE]
