Formula
Modifier = floor((Score - 10) / 2)
Each ability score produces a modifier used in gameplay. Point buy uses 27 points with costs: 8=0, 9=1, 10=2, 11=3, 12=4, 13=5, 14=7, 15=9. The 4d6 drop lowest method rolls four d6s and sums the three highest.
Worked Examples
Example 1: Fighter Using Point Buy
Problem:Build a Fighter optimized for melee combat using the 27-point buy system. Prioritize Strength and Constitution.
Solution:Strength: 15 (9 points)\nDexterity: 10 (2 points)\nConstitution: 15 (9 points)\nIntelligence: 8 (0 points)\nWisdom: 12 (4 points)\nCharisma: 10 (2 points) (missing 1 pt)\nTotal: 9+2+9+0+4+2 = 26 points (1 remaining)\nModifiers: STR +2, DEX +0, CON +2, INT -1, WIS +1, CHA +0\nTotal modifier sum: +4
Result:Scores: 15/10/15/8/12/10 | Total: 70 | Points Used: 26/27
Example 2: Wizard Using Standard Array
Problem:Assign the Standard Array (15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8) to optimize a Wizard character who needs Intelligence primarily, then Constitution and Dexterity.
Solution:Strength: 8 (modifier -1)\nDexterity: 14 (modifier +2)\nConstitution: 13 (modifier +1)\nIntelligence: 15 (modifier +2)\nWisdom: 12 (modifier +1)\nCharisma: 10 (modifier +0)\nTotal score: 72\nTotal modifier: +5\nPrimary casting stat (INT) at 15 can reach 17 with +2 racial bonus.
Result:Scores: 8/14/13/15/12/10 | Total Modifier: +5 | INT +2
