YUP base abilities is what counts <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> if you look at the stats when generating a character they will tell what they are good for, for example take strength if you put your ability at15 it would waste a bonus damage point cause you get +2 at 14 and + 3 at 16 so it would be better to put that at 14 even if you only get a +2, then put an extra point in say INT which will give you extra skill points and if you are a wizard or rogue even better but if you are a Fighter you may want all your ability points in say STR and CON cause that would help with you damage bonus and your HP when you lvl up, andsoforth <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> have a look at Neverwinter Vault and you will find lotsa answers Heh tellem Mea sent you <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> (which wont help much but it sounds good <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> )
