He'll put all his abilty boost from levels to Wisdom since doing so to Str grants no bonus. If he gets a +4 str item, he might not even use it. He'll trade with the rogue who has the +4 dex item (who doesn't use the +dex item for the same reason). He won't ask the wizard for Bull's Strength, Cat's Grace, Bear's Endurance (because his's a dwarf), nor Owl's Wisdom as none of them will give him a bonus. At level 10, every fighter has ~16 in their Str, Dex, Con, and Wis ability scores regardless of race because it is inefficient not too.. Diminishing returning is a soft cap. Soft caps are hard caps for people with system mastery 90% of the time. Hard caps encourages sameness. seen in happen in video games, it'll happen in d&d. Even the New York Yankees don't want to be over the luxury cap anymore <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":eek:" />.</blockquote>
