I just didn't care for the inflation that happened in 3e and beyond. I've always viewed 18 as the human limit, barring something supernatural, so a character starting with an 18, then passing to 23 naturally, and having the +6 belt assumed rubs me a bit wrong.I actually am in favor of a str 16 character being able to bump his strength to 17 or even 18. I also don't really have a problem with the strength 18 character working to 20, I guess. It's a matter of scale, which is why I suggested a cap.It would also be interesting to require a character to spend a precious feat on a stat boost. That turns it from a ubiquitous, assumed freebie to an option that must be weighed against other options.</blockquote>
