Well, I may have gone in planning to dump physical stats, but the highest score in the draft is still on the board and rogue is (tied for) my favorite class, so I’m gonna take that 16 Dexterity.

@el-remmen , have you gone into how you generate the array to begin with?

And last, but not least @FitzTheRuke finishes up the first round. . .

I'll do that in the post-mortem - but the short version is I make two pools of numbers that look "okay," add them up and compare and then tweak to create two pools of about equal power (in terms of total points) but that cluster in different places.

Saving it for the paladin. I'm envisioning a more skirmisher fighter type for me since he'll have magic.

I'll be checking back in later tonight to see if Fitz has made his choice so I can move things on for the next round. The end of round choice , I find, is where there is some potential strategy involved (if you look at how the order it determined in the following rounds)

I’ll check in again in the morning.

Yeah calling it a night. I'll be checking back in around 10 AM EST.

Sorry I'm late for you east-coast folks (or early for the morning). I had a rough afternoon and stayed off my computer (and phone) both of which are unusual for me. I'm usually on ENWorld most of the day on and off. This was a long stretch for me. My appologies.
I'll take the 15 Strength! Why not?

No worries, Fitzy, - I said folks have 24 hours just for reasons like that. Hope you are having a better day today!
Anyway, the order for the next round is as follows:
1. @Swarmkeeper
2. @TwoSix
3. @Baron Opal II
4. @FitzTheRuke
5. @prabe
6. @Charlaquin
I really thought Fitz might take a lower but decent number in his first round to assure first choice in the second round.

Do I stick with my rogue idea or go wizard? I think I’ll push off that choice by selecting…
INT 15!
and as a result have clinched last pick next round…

TwoSix messed up your plan, Swarmy, by also picking a 15! That means you will pick before him next round because being tied, the person with the lower total score picks first - and he now has 29 total points and you have 28!
