With no re-roll, sometimes things got a little out of whack.  I was playing a 2E campaign - I had a merchant (psionicist, yes, but really, just a merchant!) - well, he had a good con, which helped, but he only had d6 hp.  The party had a ranger and a fighter - and every level they rolled like total crap - 1s, 2s, etc.  We all rolled together when we leveled, to see how we'd measure up.  I rolled a '6' every single time, with the exception of one level, where I rolled a '5'.  So by the time we got up to 5th, 6th level, I had by far the most hit points in the group and I didn't do combat!</blockquote>
