If I have a 17 Int Wizard (+3) that is also an Eladrin (+2 Int)....Does that mean my total ability modifier is +5 or +3 for Int. I think I remember reading that bonuses of the same type don't stack and that you take the largest one instead. A little confused.
#2 Novacat Jun 20, 2008 6:37:38	Here's how it works. Let's say you're rolling up a new character, and you want to play an Eladrin Wizard. Your rolled: STR 8 (-1) CON 14 (+2) DEX 10 (+0) INT 17 (+3) WIS 15 (+2) CHA 13 (+1) Your racial bonuses modify the SCORE, not the BONUS. Therefore, your new stats are: STR 8 (-1) CON 14 (+2) DEX 12 (+1) INT 19 (+4) WIS 15 (+2) CHA 13 (+1)
