You like spending points, it's got that; you like randomization, it's got that too! The Dice Point method has got you covered.You roll 1d4+1d6+1d8 for each ability score, in order! But before you do that, you get 5 points to spend on your ability scores. Spending 1 point allows you control over the toss of one die (most likely you will make the 1d8 an 8). Spending 2 points allows control over two dice (most likely the d6 and the d8). Spending 3 points allows complete control, and you can have an 18 in that score if you wish.I find 3 total points fits my style, but you sound like a 5 pointer to me. Five Dice Points can guarantee you two scores above 14 and one score that is at least not below average and most likely above average. The rest of your scores get to run free and wild. Maybe one will be a 16 base.There are plenty of complex systems out there, and Point Buy is one of them. I mean, anytime you have to consult a chart means it's a complex method.</blockquote>
