New Character help for Over the top ability points campaign.


Advice


So yet another person in our group is giving GMing a shot.
And against my strong advice, they decided to give people options of character creation that were well, insane.
The option i chose was rolling 5d6 take best 3, rolling each stat in order. I came out with:

18 Str
15 Dex
17 Con
12 Int
16 Wis
15 Cha

Now i still get to add an additional +3 across these any way i chose how, and pick a race (including anything i can make up using 10 RP)

with stats like this just about anything you can dream of is playable. We currently have 2 clerics, a pally and a (druid or wizard).

I'm thinking of either
A) Going Monk
B) Going some obscure rarely played archetype that these stats might enable, like scrollmaster.

*edit: I expect there to be almost zero room for roll play in this campaign, combat combat combat.


Seems the campaign won't be too serious so I'd say pick whatever you want. You have 2 clerics so healing won't be an issue.

And honestly, scrollmaster? Isn't that a wizard class? 12 Int won't cut it if it is.

Monk seems perfect though.


12 int + 3 = 15 before race bonus, so it can be a 17 or 19 (custom race). Scroll master is a wizard that can use scrolls as short swords and shields.


Well if you're going over the top, I'd say barbarian with skill focus(truck driver) and any feat that will help with am wrestling

Only if he has the traits Estranged Son and Evil Father-in-Law.


Sry to crash the thread, but how many feats should a lv1 barb, lv3 magus, and a lv1 dragonrider have?

Estranged son trait is totally OP and broken, I don't know anyone who would allow it

Depends on race

If human, 2, 3, 2

If not, 1, 2, 1

Or, 3 feats (4 for humans) if you're talking about a single multiclass character. It's not clear from the text.
