But they might just end up being smarter and a better thinker than a gnome that didn't bother to study.In other words, if a goliath applied themselves physically by either putting a higher score in their Strength or putting their floating +2 ASI in Strength, or both, they would be stronger than a halfling. But a goliath that didn't apply themselves physically and decided to be studious instead and put their higher scores and +2 bonus in Int or Wis, is instead physically weak.Meaning, it's all about how what area of their life the goliath chose to work on rather than some inborn trait.So basically, you're agreeing with me. Awesome!So what you're saying is, playing a straight-outta-the-PC half-orc martial is not minmaxing, but playing a halfling martial who put a floating ASI into Strength is minmaxing?How does that make sense again?[ATTACH=full]132292[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
