[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 7287016, member: 12731"] While you are entitled to an opinion, please don't try to make this a fairness issue. Exhibit A: Life isn't fair. Exhibit B: The idea that anyone would *game* a Reincarnation is preposterous. Attempt it, let alone cheat at the random roll. Conclusion: if, by some remote happenstance, I'm playing a Halfling and my fellow party member dies at Dex 20 and is reincarnated as a Dex 22 Halfling; throwing a tantrum about "fairness" is way way WAY out of line. The only proper reaction is: "Wow, you're back. And Congratulations!" I'm assuming you don't arguing over unfairness every time your fellow party members find a cool magic item (and you don't), or when they get blessed by the Oracle/Temple/whatever (and you don't). I'm also assuming that IF you insist that the Dex 22 Halfling is "unfair", you'll also allow me to reroll my Resurrection roll if I'm a Wizard rolling an -2 Int Orc, since that's most assuredly "unfair" to me. Right? Sent from my C6603 using [URL=http://r.tapatalk.com/byo?rid=93205]EN World mobile app[/URL] [/QUOTE]
