Putting your probably highest stat in charisma was quite some nerf to their other stats.Fighters had a reasonable chance to get an 18/xy in strength. Paladin's chances were slim at best. You had to roll a 17+ and an 18 for strength. And you had to be a human. So no bonuses.Our DM allowed us sometimes to roll for exceptional strength and then decide of we really want that in strength so the penalty was a bit lower (only rolled 18/23 or so with a +1/+3 bonus - > put the 18 into charisma).Edit: and I think the PHB disallowed even weapon specialization, so their melee damage is way lower.</blockquote>
