620 base roll <puke> reg
Just use your head, it's not as bad as it seems.

Sonic reg

They should call it the 'cookie cutter'

reg

As long as those of us who know how to build an optimized character from this method of genning don't tell all of us that don't exactly what to do it'll be fine. I'm not betting on that though.

Sonic reg

I think a major benefit to the new roller is you you can set a lot of your slow growing stats with numbers that aren't like 90s or very high 80s..In fact I made a character with only 2 stats over 80 which leaves tons of room for growth there, and the fast growing stats aren't extremly low as they can be in some cases on a regular roll.

Sorry, will be doing exactly that in the next few days or maybe tonight...

'lood
who plays warriors anyway?

reg

Gods! I leave for 2 days and Simu comes in to confuse me more! *fluster* I have never even accepted a roll that low... my preferred minimum was 640. *sighs* oh well... good thing I rerolled a short while ago then.

Why?

Sonic reg

Generally life outlook i guess.

Its either the school of thought that a select few should harbor knowledge and use it to gain a upper hand, or that those select few should teach others to better everyone.

reg

It's not exactly rocket science. I'm sure most of us could have figured out the best way to place a race/prof when we were in 2nd grade. If this were an RP puzzle, would you be so quick to give out the best solution?

Sonic reg

well, if its so easy, then i see no point in hiding it.

shhhhhhh, come here, 5 times 6 = 30.....


Their is still no best way to place stats, still many variations.


RP puzzles are in character puzzles. game mechanics questions are out of character questions.

'lood
reg

Well, I'd just like my opposing stance to be noted with regards to this particular topic.

Sonic reg

noticed the ranges have changed.

only 1 above 90
only 3 above 70.

You can have as many stats 69 as you can fit into the points.

That 9 point hike matters alot in growth.


'lood reg

Opposing stance noted and duly recorded, but you don't have to look yanno? I like that people share info for those of us who are curious but too lazy to actually do the math. Although in this instance I agree with 'lood, it's pretty much a no brainer.

I think you just don't want the competition

So, it is now 1 90 or higher, and 3 more 70 or higher - with the rest 69 or lower? reg

Per Simu-Melissa:

All Stats start out with a minimum of 20 points. You're given 460 points to assign. Only one stat
may end up above 90. Only 4 stats (including the one above 90) may be above 70. reg

You actually get all stats at 20.. and 420 extra ones to place as you want.. Not 460 unless they messed up again. reg
I have not used the new CM yet, the 460 figure was a paste from the OBBS. It's entirely possible she quoted the wrong numbers.
