I'm not fond of point buy, I've done it, but am a purist I like not knowing what I'm getting until I get them. Most of the time I roll in order and keep the stats its just fun to have a character that is like a normal person gifts and weaknesses given to one by nature. Then trying to find your place in the world.

Still its ok I suppose. Lets see stats for my new halfling rogue - Str 12, Dex 20, Con 12, Int 14, Wis 14, Cha 12.

It was a 42 point buy?  ???

Xillen

Ruby, assuming Str 14, Dex 18 pre racials, that comes down to 42 points.

Inkidu, I'm not sure what you all changed around, but you're now at 52 points. You'll have to lower some scores.

I'll see if I can bug Goalt on IRC tonight, so I can check on her class :)

I fixed it I've plugged it into a calculator I checked the numbers seven times. From eight the points I spent add up to forty two. Now I'm off to add my new con bonus to my hit.
If you're searching the lines for a point, well you've probably missed it; there was never anything there in the first place.

Xillen

It's not a 1:1 ratio. A 14 costs 6 points indeed, but a 16 costs 10 points, even though it's only 8 higher than 8.

16's and especially 18's cost more, because those really are exceptional stats, and you need to sacrofice a bit to get to them.

Heh, sorry, yeah, they're right, I misread it.

1 point is 9
2 points are 10
3 points are 11
4 points are 12 on the ability score.

That seems 1:1 to me if you start at eight.

Oh, ok. That's not the regular pointbuy.

* Xillen will wait for a status update from Combi

Yeah I know. I used to have a Pool of Radiance computer game and it used that other system, as far as I can tell. *Waits for Combi*

I asked someone on irc if it was 1:1, and they said yes, so I figured that's what it was.

But for point buys -
Ability score                Point cost
    9                                  1
    10                                 2
    11                                 3
    12                                 4
    13                                 5
    14                                 6
    15                                 8
    16                               10
    17                               13
    18                               16

And because of me being stupid and not realising what I had done, lets make it 28 points. :]

Looks like that comes to 30, Inkidu.

12 = 4 pts
16 = 10
12 = 4
14 = 6
10 = 2
12 = 4

total = 30

I'm not sure if this makes sense anymore, but Durias v. 4.0.0

I'm out a DM that can't decide what they want, change once then twice is not the sort I like to play under. I'm sure you can find another person to run a rogue.

It's changed again? :o
Not so much as changed as I think she fixed a mistake she made.

Combicon

Yeah, sorry about all the changes, thanks for bearing with me about it.
Heh...
There shouldn't be any more changes. :D

Okay, I'm playing a Human* Druid.


*Curse the lack of +wis races.  :P
So, hey. Back now, and ready to write. Woo!
O&O

Xillen

There's afaik only a single LA0 +wisdom race, and that race is incapable of spellcasting.

I'm going to make something melee'ish then. Maybe a Paladin.

I love the smell of lawful good in the morning. It smells like... victory.

I suppose I should officially bump myself out of the group.  There're a couple reasons--other E projects that have come up or might, uncertainty about who my character is, others that shouldn't be aired in a public thread--but, there . . . for once I'll follow Ruby (that's probably a sign of the impending apocalypse, just FYI  ;) ).

Appearance:
When riding around the countryside or whenever she feels a fight is at hand, Zoe goes around fully clad in her armor, sword and shield ready at her sides. Her thick brown hair is kept short to prevent it being in the way of combat. The only ornament she wears is a silver pendant hanging on her chest, representing a bolt of lightning, to honor her deity and the temple that raised her.
In calmer times, usually when she strolls around town, she'll leave her armor, weaponry and most of her equipment at home, and goes dressed in a single white robe, lacking any kind of ornaments. Occasionally, when the light of the sun shines through the thin fabric, a lucky bystander could receive a revealing view of her posture.

Background:
Zoe became an orphan at a young age when her hometown was brutally attacked by orcs, after which she was taken in and raised by priests of Heironeous. Growing up trained to do good, while at the same time building up a hatred to the creatures that assaulted her home village. As Zoe grew up, she was gifted with both the lessons of the priests in the channeling of god's power and of the militia in the training at arms and horseback riding. When she considered she was ready, Zoe rode out on a crusade to vanquish evil, but discovered the world wasn't nearly as black and white as she thought it would be in her sheltered home of the temple of Heironeous.
