I know you all spend hours upon hours rolling for stats, and at least once you should have had an insane stat roll.

Mine was on a female fighter who I never used:

Str: 18/00 (I don't believe it myself!)
Dex: 17
Con: 18
Int: 17
Wis: 10
Cha: 15

For a grand total of 95.

So, whats yours?

Elven ranger

STR 18/2?
DEX 18
CON 18
INT 13
WIS 18
CHA 18

Total of 103, but I didn't keep it because the exceptional strength wasn't exceptional enough for me (18/76 min. with really good stats, 18/91 min. normally).

Yeah well, the exceptional strength doesn't matter once you get the strength belts.

I think I once got 101 for a bard. But I never used that character, so I don't remember very well. Most characters I play have totals between 88 and 91. If I get a total of 93 or higher, I generally won't use the stat-increasing tomes (I play Tutu).

Wow, I think about 100 was my highest ever, but there are some amazing rolls here.

If you want great scores, roll him/her up in BGI and import the character. That's +8 on your stats!

Hmm...for me it was:

Str 18
Dex 18
Con 18
Int 18
Wis 18
Cha 18

But that was using the cheat. ;) :p

As for actual rolls from clicking non-stop, I think the highest I've ever gotten was in the mid 90's. :rolling:

Wow man... Highest roll I've ever made was 91, I think.. 91-2 anyway... Highest PnP roll I've ever made is 84.

I can't believe you folks really had the patience to sit and roll those stats.

Oh, believe me, I roll. And roll. And roll some more. I need a Gf....

How long do most of you people roll? I mean, I don't think I've ever got into the mid-90s. I'm usually very happy with a total of 90, and I find anything over 85 to be very doable. Plus, it's not like you NEED to have that high of stats. As an example, let's say you want your prime stat to be 18. Even if you want other important stats like dexterity to be 18, and constitution to be either 16 or 18 (depending on class) you can then get away with 10s in everything else. So let's say you're playing a fighter (as they do require 18 instead of 16 con for maximum hp benefit). You get an 18/xx for strength, 18 dex, 18 con. It's perfectly reasonable to accept 10s for int, wis, and cha. That's 84 total, and a very playable character.

EDIT: The only time that rolling for high stats becomes problematic is if you want to dual class your character, or if you are playing a multi-class (especially a 3 class multi-class). Some are more problematic than others. If you were a fighter, wanting to dual class to a thief, it's no big deal, because you probably wanted 18's in both strength and dexterity anyway. However, if you wanted a fighter dual-classed to a wizard, now you're looking at a much more difficult to attain total of 92. Still with some patience I suppose that's doable. I'd hate to see someone try to roll a "perfect" FMC tri-classed character. Assuming you wanted 18s in your three main attributes, 18 in dex and 18 in con, you'd be looking at 18s in everything except charisma, and if you wanted an average score of 10 there, you need 100 total points, which to me seems virtually unattainable.

EDIT2: My next game is going to be with a halfling assassin. I will use the tombs, and by the end of BG, I don't want any of my stats to be under 10. Therefore, I have minimums of

Strength = 15 (If I can get it to 17 great, but no big deal if I can't - I just want to be able to carry a decent amount of stuff.)
Dexterity = 19
Constitution = 15
Intelligence = 9
Wisdom = 7
Charisma = 9

That's a whopping total of 74, and I'd likely get that on my first roll. In fact, I probably could easily get the strength to 17, as that only requires 76.

Actually, I don't really roll THAT much unless i'm rping a character and they just happen to have ridiculous stats. Normally I just take three 18's and three 10's and be happy with it :)

I agree. I have never even bothered to add up my stats so I wouldn't even know whether I had 70 or 90. I have never rolled more thabout 4 times and just take one that looks like it might be OK.

This game is so full off unbalanced stat-enhancing items that your original stats are not that important anyway.

Allthough I sometimes work hard rolling stats I tend to end around 87-89. My highest die hit was a 93.

A mod downgrading many statincreasing items would be nice.

I only roll for 2 minutes then I move on. (Im not very patient :D )
But the highest roll I've had was around 95 I think.

arent rolls in BG2 on average higher than BG1?

I don't think so, wd. They shouldn't be...

The highest stats I rolled were last night.

Str: 18/00
Dex 19
Con 17
Int 18
Wis 18
Cha 10

My character was going to be a F/M/T. To bad I didn't keep this character. Right now my goal is to finish BG1 with Abdel and than get him through BG2, etc...

Edit: Adjusted class

How can you roll a dex of 19 with a half-elf :p ?

Thu, 22nd Dec '05, 2:44pm
Some PCs have crazy stat requirements (pally, bard) that you have to have high rolls for anyway. I'm usually multi or dual classing. The hardest class to roll for imo is a F/D. Multi isn't so bad, but for a dual? :nuts:

Aldeth the Foppish Idiot

Good question - especially considering constitution of 17 and dexterity of 19 looks very elf-like - but I didn't think elves could be FMC...

EDIT - I agree Keumper - that requirement of 15 in Charisma is tough to get, considering you also will have minimum requirements of 15 strength and 17 wisdom, and you don't want your dexterity or constitution to suck either.

Only Half-elfs can bee FMC's

A dual Cleric --> Ranger is even worse than a Fighter -->Druid... the latter can still be done with real patience or by dumping other stats -I made one with CON 7 once what a wimp ;)

Well I once rolled this for a Skald, I loved him really and played for a while, but never finished the game.

STR 10
DEX 18
CON 16
INT 18
WIS 18
CHA 18

He is the 'perfect' guy except a lousy STR which can easily be balanced via items/spells. (17+ CON won't do him any good!)

*the 2e master comes in to clear things up*
-Abdel's probably talking about an elven F/M/T.

-Fighter->Druids require 15 STR, 17 WIS, and 17 CHA. (Charisma is a prime requisite for Druids)

-Cleric->Ranger with 7 CON is impossible. Rangers require a minimum 14 CON. The minimum requirements for a Cleric->Ranger is 17 STR, 17 DEX, 14 CON, and 17 WIS. INT would be a good dump stat if you don't care about scrolls or wands; otherwise you can always dump in CHA.

:rolling:

@Felinoid: I meant a F/D with 7 CON ;)

Looking back I will have to say it was 97. I think. Sat here for hours, rolling, rolling... rolling myself an acceptable Avenger druid.

Ja, I was a bit obssessed there.

Maxed everything out and dumped the surplus into STR in order to have a druid strong enough to at least wield a dagger AND wear some armour.
Then, however, I felt somewhat silly when I put on one of them strength-boosting belts. Made all my efforts look unnecessary, for some reason... :mad:

Ever since I just use the Cntrl+8-trick. :grin:
