[QUOTE="Horwath, post: 8850234, member: 6801299"] it is only +1 in modifier, that is true. But, maybe it's in perception of how much highest and lowest stat differ. 15 is much higher than 8. having 10 as minimum might look nicer, and look less like min-maxing. or even if you want to have a balanced character and have 12 as lowest stat, you now can have 13,13,13,12,12,12 with +1/+1/+1 will give you 14,14,14,12,12,12. Certainly, it looks nice, but it's little lacking in "main stat" and you cant have a 4th level half feat and get an 16 main stat. with 5 more points in point buy you could make: 15,14,12,12,12,12 and with +2/+1 you could have 17 and 15 or 16 and 16. or go with 14,14,13,13,12,12 with +1/+1/+1 to have 15,14,14,14,12,12 and have option to get a half feat and have 16 at 4th level. I really like the 13,13,13,12,12,12 on some characters. A friend played half-elf barbarian with those stats, we have bonus 1st level feat house rule. H-elf with tasha's floating stats and skill expert feat; 3rd level barbarian:: STR:13+2+1(skill expert) DEX: 13+1 CON: 13+1 INT, WIS and CHA: 12 8 skills plus 1 expertise. great fieldcraft character that was.
