Stat generation

Draco_Magus · 12-06-2004, 11:20 PM

How do you all generate your stats?

Point buy?

4d6 drop lowest?

3d6?

I've got a dm that lets us roll 4d6 dropping the lowest and rerolling ones and twos, leading to powerful characters, while another dm allows 2d10's if you're risky.

3d6 in order, no re-rolling.

I'm old that way.

Deja vu all over again ... I started a thread on this a few days ago ...

I like to use different methods depending what mood takes us when we start a new game.

Cheers!

As an aside, that 2d10 method sounds NASTY.

Cheers!

7 times 4d6 drop the lowest

*Zarkoneil* · 12-09-2004, 08:18 PM

Also used 12*3d6, drop 6 throws

Here in the d20 game system, we don't roll no other dice.

So it's roll 4 d20, and drop the lowest!

I am particularly fond of me Dagger that does 1d20 damage. Makes being being a wizard much more fun.
