[QUOTE="Scott Christian, post: 8199082, member: 6901101"] Sorry, but you are wrong on this. I stated that is the unavoidable outcome (a product) from your insistence of having floating ASIs as [I]the[/I] rule. And, in truth, I do not believe for a bit the rule would ever be in question were it not for getting that extra +1. And I have always insisted that they should have both. Yours should be the optional rule exactly as it was written in Tasha's. Do you see the difference. I want both rules because I think both sides should be supported. But that doesn't stop me from believing this wouldn't be a question is that extra +1 didn't happen until you reached an 18. If it was from 14-17=+2 very few people on here would be debating their character needs to be allowed to put the +2 in whatever they want. So it does all boil down to the +1. It is a product of what you and many players want. You can say all you want that you are for players putting a +2 in an off trait. But that is not realistic. Here we can look at the stats - how many druids built inside D&D Beyond chose something other than wisdom for their highest attribute? How many made it their third highest attribute? Very very few. But sure, go ahead, insist you are arguing on behalf of those players that want to do that, and not because starting out with a 16 at first level gives you an extra +1. [/QUOTE]
