[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 5975298, member: 63508"] But isn't this the "Ability modifier is everything" edition. I prefer the 3E model for math reasons. 1) Natural and Skilled bonus can remain equal while maintaining good accuracy. Currently a 16 STR fighter gets +3 to attack from strength and +3 to attack from class. Against a moderately good AC or 14, the expert hits on an 8 for 6)% accuracy. Dropping 16 to +2 drops importance from natural bonuses under skill bonus. Unless you drop the proficiency bonus to +2 as well. Then you go back to 4E's flurry of misses and I'm out if 50% accuracy returns :eek:. 2) I just don't see the gap between the 8-18 being that bad. Unless you encourage max stats, the ability section of character sheets would look nearly identical. That annoyed me. [/QUOTE]
