Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General Floating ASI (+2/+1) question

Is it going to be the case that all races will get a floating +2 and +1 to their ability scores or will Half Elves still get +2 and an additional 2 +1s? (And for that matter, will Dwarves get 2 +2s?)

No one seems to know what is happening at the moment, and it seems like Larian isn't going to say anything until launch. There are other threads here that all address this issue and have people actively looking for answers. I suggest following the larger threads rather than a new one, because this little guy is going to disappear into obscurity pretty quickly.

I think all races will get a +2 and +1. Humans used to have +1 to all so they go from a combined +5 to a combined +3, and I think it will be similar with Half Elves and Dwarves.

Cheers for your answers.

What would be interesting to know is whether +2/+1 are still listed under the relevant race description or is directly incorporated into the chosen class attributes.
If it's still listed under the race it should be relatively easy to get rid of that crap and bring the bring the real modifiers back.

Feels weird a gnome can be enherntly the same strength as a half orc

If they are using the same rules that will be in the updated Player's Handbook in 2024 all races get a +2/+1(as of last play-test)
