Question about stats
« on: February 15, 2008, 02:09:10 PM »
Hello!
I'm new to Harp but have run RM for some time now.
I've got a question about the stat generation:
Do stats cost their value in points or do I use the stat costs from the table with the costs for raising stats?
The text doesn't state this but coming from RM I'm a bit confused..

Thanks in advance

They cost their value in points up to 90.
From 91 to 95 it costs 2 DP to raise the stat by one (as per the table you referenced I believe)
 Hope that helps!

Actually, it does...

On page sixteen, Option 2 gives you the cost for purchasing stats. This is the same table described in the section on Increasing Stats on page 17.

And Option 3 also says to use the table in Option 2.

a stat of 85 costs 85 points.
a stat of 90 costs 90 points
a stat of 91 costs 92 points
a stat of 94 costs 98 points
a stat of 97 costs 106 points
etc...

When raising stats, you pay for the increase, using the same cost table...

Thus rasing a stat from 93 (which cost 96 points to acquire) to 94, you are spending 2 points (for a total of 98 points spent in the stat)

When generating stats, you MUST select one of the 3 options given...

Thanks!
So my feelings were right :)
That's what happens when you trust your players when they tell you "Of course that's what's in the book." ;)
