<p>198.177.227.14: link to Attributes</p> <hr /> <div>An '''ability score''' is the numeric rating of one of the six [[character]] [[ability|abilities]]. Some [[creature]]s lack certain ability scores; others cannot be rated in particular abilities. (See also [[Attributes]] .)<br /> <br /> The value of a character's ability score also provides a number of [[ability modifier|bonuses]] for spellcasting, [[attack roll]]s and other things.<br /> <br /> ==Increasing ability scores==<br /> All characters gain a permanent +1 increase to a chosen ability score at 4th level and every 4 levels thereafter (4, 8, 12, etc.). At level 20, the character will have gained +5 ability points this way.<br /> <br /> This increase can be used on any of a character's ability scores and is not restricted based on that character's previous choices.<br /> <br /> For example, a [[rogue]] increases his [[dexterity]] from 16 to 17 at 4th level. When he reaches level 8, he can further increase his dexterity to 18 or may choose to increase any of the other 5 abilities instead.<br /> <br /> In addition to this [[character progression|progression]], characters may also gain ability score increases from other sources such as [[class]] features (e.g. [[barbarian]] [[rage]]) or spells such as [[bull's strength]]).<br /> [[Category:Abilities| ]]<br /> [[Category:Character attributes]]</div>
