Increasing the stat rolls
Hey all i been noticing a trend in the new games these last few weeks. More and more are allowing the possibility of starting stats of higher than 18. The rolling method has 20's as the normal.
Now the Dms of these games say they have take this into account when designing encounters but since i have yet to be accepted into one of these games i wonder how do you take this into account. Do they consider the PCs a higher CR when throwing things at you? how do you calculate these new power you have given to your PCS? I assume the NPCs have the same rolls for stats as well. The final question is, is there a better way to do this?
