    Well, I was just power gaming a character, but sure! LOL

    Impressive. I've had a 95 but that was with an 18/96

    Better than I ever got! Well done! I had a 3 Charisma and worse strength way back when. Charisma is easy to boost with the ring and is definitely a dump stat.

    Charisma has got to be the most useless stat in the game xD Good dump stat ;) But damn man 18/00 AND 94 ROLL. One reason I don't roll fighters often if I'm power gaming to be fair.. I'll get a good roll, but something like 18/02 as Strength... >.>

    I'm not sure that ring exists in Icewind Dale. It's still the powergaming dump stat of course.

    Why is STR the power gaming dump stat?

    It's not? CHA usually is along with WIS. In fact WIS is the best dump stat as you don't incur saving throw penalties for having a low Wisdom, nor do you even get a % chance to fail spellcasting if you are a Priest.

    I'd think INT is a dump stat, along with CHA.

    INT determines the number of spells you can know per level, and your chance to scribe scrolls.

    The number changes when you gulp a potion of genius, so it really doesn't matter.

    At least a high WIS gives bonus spells.

    @Klorox Only if you're a priest. However, INT affects your survivability vs Mind Flayers for all classes.
  • KloroxKlorox Member Posts: 927
    Are there mind flayers in IWD?
  • NimranNimran Member Posts: 4,875
    Nope.
  • KloroxKlorox Member Posts: 927
    Alrighty then.

    What class is he? I'd personally drop his int down to 14 and raise his cha to 10. More 'believable' that way and doesn't alter effectiveness in any way.
