Just for fun

I don't think I ever made such a start, I didn't even Re-Roll.

if i calculated correctly, you are 8 points away from maximum, viktoras.
my char was 9 points away.
however ... being what? 5 points away is outright incredible.
i could do the math or rather statistic calculations if i wasnt too lazy to look it up.
unfortunately i forgot how to calculate it. :?
its not that difficult, but i believe that the hands stats are simply ... divine ??!

This is one thing I didn't like about the game.
I think there should be one sum for everyone and the rolls dived the sum into attributes - this way it will be balanced for everyone.

it's sooooo easy to just be patient....that screenshot i posted wasn't my best rolled character .....my best rolled character was my FIRST paladin and his roll was nothing smaller than 12 with like 6 14's.....if ur patient....u can get some amazing rolls...how is that NOT even playing field for everyone?

I'm not saying getting the rolls are EASY....but patience is....sit down....have urself a nice cup of (whatever you like to drink) and some chips/cookies....i've sat there doing nothing but rolling for over 45minutes before.....but that patience has ALWAYS paid off....and sometimes it only took a few tries.....most the times it took a bit of patience....and I can't tell you how many times i screwed up and hit ReRoll too quickly when i had a very nice roll....and was like OMG!!!! To me....it just adds to the game....i love it

I love the dice system.

I remember my first RPG on the computer. It was Bard´s tale for Commodore 64. I re-rolled for hours until my party was ready for adventure. Just the same with Might and Magic III for Amiga. I just love this old style thing.
