Introduction
Rerolling refers to the process of getting a different set of stats during the character creation process. The term is derived from the paper and dice version of role-playing wherein players would actually roll dice and cross-reference a table in the game manual to generate their characters statistics. If they were unhappy with their statistics, they could re-roll.
Statistical Analysis
A statistical analysis of approximately 2500 re-rolls to determine the approximate distributions of the levels for each stat. The results are summarized in the table below:
| Stat Level | STR | INT | WIS | DEX | CON | CHR | LUC |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LOW | 41% | 0% | 41% | 9% | 40% | 43% | 41% |
| BAVG | 24% | 23% | 23% | 33% | 22% | 24% | 21% |
| AVG | 16% | 29% | 16% | 29% | 18% | 15% | 17% |
| AAVG | 11% | 28% | 12% | 20% | 12% | 11% | 13% |
| HIGH | 4% | 15% | 4% | 5% | 4% | 3% | 3% |
| MAX | 4% | 5% | 4% | 4% | 4% | 4% | 4% |
Graphically the distributions are shown below:
