I’m along the lines of being iffy on racial modifiers for ability scores in #dnd, would you be interested in a little guide on stat modifiers based on class 👀?
It’s a generally small bonuses of +1 to one of the primary stats of the class but for story purposes Example: As a monk did you primarily focus more on your combat ability or your wisdom of mind?
+1 to Dexterity Or +1 to WisdomI've been doing this for a TTRPG of mine with those stats and also gonna start adding to my DnD games too

I myself agree, and while I know it’s part of the dregs of older editions that has endured, I myself would prefer class-based modifiers as well (and hope any future editions lean this way).

Why would you go based on class and not on background? That way you don’t shackle weird builds. Soldier gives +1str +1con for example.
