Thread: We're getting stat allocation back in 1.20, right?

I can't believe so many people want that old system back. That stat allocation system was horrible. Why bother wearing gear with an extra +5 STR when you can just change your stats to add +40? There was so much wrong with that system, I don't know where to begin.

Because then you'd have +45? Do half of you even think before you sumbit your replies?

I think what he was trying to convey was that if point allocation can create stat swings of 40 points or more, something has to give. Either the points do very little and the difference between someone with 120 STR and and someone with 160 STR is minimal (like in the old system) or stats are meaningful and the 120 STR character actually hits like a paper towel and no +5 STR belt is ever going to even remotely close the gap.
