When you can start with
Str 14
Dex 10
Con 13
Int 10
Wis 16
Cha 14

Its stupid to use the half elf bonus point on dex rather than strength, given that it costs more to go from a 13 to 14 than a 8 to a 9. Fix it already Larian.

Oh, hey, didn't even notice that. That's a new layer of dumb there.

Maybe she forgot to be dexterous when she gave her memories up to become a priestess of Shar. Ever think of that, huh!?


What is the problem you are solving? Does your proposed change solve the problem? Is your change feasible? What else will be affected by your change? Will your change impact revenue? Does your change align with the goals and strategies of the organizations (Larian, WotC)?

Why does she need dex?



Dexterity determines Armor Class, AC means you are hit less by attacks.

Only armor type that ignores Dex on AC is heavy armor, but Trickery Domain cannot use Heavy armor.
Medium armor gets up to 2 AC from Dexterity. So a 14 in dex is "ideal" for a medium armor wearer.

Shadow heart has 9 in dexterity, meaning she has an AC "bonus" from Dex of -1.

Only characters that get's heavy armor should have Dex of less than 10.

Just switch charisma and dexterity. She's not nice enough for 14 charisma and she's a pretty lithe shadow priest with medium armor and should have 14 dex. Current stats make no sense.

Also, if they're dead set on her having 14 charisma "because reasons" then just give it to her. It would have zero impact on anything and dex absolutely shouldn't be in the toilet.

Problem with swapping is.... CHA has a +2 from her racial bonus. So thats effectively a statrole of 12.

I agree on just swapping the stats though. I see no reason why the NPC's also have to have stats rolled like the player. Just giving some a minor boost here or there wont make or break the game wink

She does die a lot in my games. Every time I see the bitch she gets jumped by people who dislike her pre-teen shitty attitude coupled with terrible writing and dies a horrible death.
Never did figure out why that happened.
