[QUOTE="ARandomGod, post: 2189008, member: 17296"] I felt a need to quote Thanee, because that was an expression of my opinion there exactly. I also feel a need to express further, however. [i][b]*We hates the point buys... yess, we hates it so very much.*[/b][/i][b][/b] I prefer a system that doesn't penalize characters for being heroes. I don't like the concept of having lesser secondary scores just because you want your primary score to be 17 or 18 (or even 15!) I generally prefer the following 'system' (Sorry for taking up so much space here on something very, very simple to explain.. wait, no I'm not.) [code]Ability Points Score Cost 3 0 4 0 5 0 6 0 7 0 8 0 9 1 10 2 11 3 12 4 13 5 14 6 15 7 16 8 17 9 18 10 [/code] Sometimes, to appease those who want to encourage people to 'buy up' lower stats instead of focusing on higher stats, I have the base be 10 instead of 8, and lower the 'point buy' to reflect two points already spent in those stats. Now *there* is a point buy system I can really get behind. [/QUOTE]
