If I've already started the game, I would, but that's just me. I'm taking a multi through right now and when I get ready to move them up to BG2 or over to IWD, I make bump their stats up a little. It seems to me that in RL you might get smarter, gain wisdom, get healthier and strong the more you do. Sort of like growing up. So I think that is alright.
