[QUOTE="dshai527, post: 381183, member: 4469"] We embrace disparity in characters. I know it sounds odd, and we have had our player spoilers who need to be a bada$$ but we enjoy playing each character no matter what the stats are vs another players stats. It was actually at a point for awhile that we just chose stats based on how we viewed our character, like you would for an NPC and you set the emotion level high so the stronger ones feel the need to protect the weaker ones.
