Has anyone else with 5th edition's point buy system found themselves unconsciously allocating points along the exact same lines as the Standard Array lineup?
Because I was hashing out character builds, and all of the last four builds I came up with ended up with point buy allocations that were identical to the Standard Array.
What is so hard about coming up with a floor numbering system? What is so hard about reading the site rules and knowing not to ask a polling/listing question?
Those are two different things.
And it’s not immediately obvious which one you mean.
@Yuuki The first one. When I was 16, I was somehow able to organize that (awful) first dungeon I ever created (with three levels) by using a simple key that made sense to me.
It's a bit of a red herring, imo. You shouldn't be using a strict numbering system for dungeon floors because dungeons typically aren't office buildings where the floors follow a specific regimented design.
Unless you're playing a post-apocalyptic campaign, I suppose.
Yeah, I get that. He wasn't overly fussed in that way though. He immediately turned it down like it was "weak" compared to what an actual level 20 PC could do.
@Miniman Only time I've ever done that was with a Barbarian for 16 STR DEX and CON, and 9 INT WIS and CHA. Wanted to role play the archetypical dumb warrior stereotype. XD
> Once you’ve reached 10th level things change a little. When you have enough XP to go to 11th level instead you choose one of these: - Retire to safety - Take on an apprentice - Change entirely to a new class If you retire you create a new character to play instead and work with the GM to establish your place in the world. If you take on an apprentice you play a new character (the apprentice) alongside your current character, who stops gaining XP. Changing classes means keeping your ability scores, race, HP, and whatever moves you and the GM agree are core to who your character is…
I didn't really understand the leveling portion other than:
XPTotal & LevelUp = Level+7 - XP
However when you hit level 10 the manual says you must create a new character as an assistant or etc. But can you not just keep leveling? While this will indeed make them stronger you can scale monsters...
@BESW Ok, I was reading an Spanish version which is a bit different, it doesn't have that. Looking it better, that book has 54 pages while the manual has 395... I think it is missing some features
Yeah. It's a guide for helping to understand the game; it assumes you've read the manual.
