[QUOTE="Lyxen, post: 8459259, member: 7032025"] Good then. No, you twist my words and do selective quoting, so you might get that impression, but it's only you. Nothing here about future edition in particular. See above, you are doing it again, both to the OP and myself. [I][/I] Sorry, but no, this is again you inventing things. That is my thought about floating ASIs, how does this invalidate that there are whole ranges of power gaming ? No, but you have changed my text, and in particular just snipped that quote exactly when I started explaining what was happening. As multiple other persons wrote, the problem is usually not ONE option in particular (individually, the options are usually fairly well proof-read and playtested), it's the combination that creates problem. In this case, powergamers don't like rolling if they can't modify the scores after, as they are stuck with odd scores which cause them problems especially when forcing them to thing ASI vs. Feat. It also disrupt the builds that they find on the internet and confuses in particular those who are mainly copycats. But if combined with the Floating ASIs that allow them to customise the scores however they want after rolling, and getting rid of at least one odd score and pumping that 18 to 20, then it's the best combination ever. So why don't you go back to the topic at hand and stop nitpicking every single word I write, especially if it's to change them, selectively quote and misinterpret ? [/QUOTE]
