All the WotC 5e pregens have +3 (16/17) in their primary stat and it's easy to reach so it's observationally 16.As mentioned 4e, with point buy, you could buy up a stat of 18 by using 16 of your 22 points and reach a 20 with a beneficial race. A few people did but I'd guess I saw more starting 18s than 20s because you could buy a 16 with only 9 points, leaving a much more rounded character - or even have an 18 with an off-race character. I'd guess I saw more 18s than 20s - and very few 16s or below. 18 not 20 was the benchmark.Again this is observational but it's probably the best easily achieved threshold.</blockquote>
