Many will consider this cheating, and I don't usually cheat either, but considering I have completed the game many times already, I want to cut short an activity I am sure many indulge in.

Rolling your Avatar's stats... ...

Rolling, rolling, rolling. Rolling, rolling, rolling. ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~

Is there a way to manually edit the stats? I am NOT going to put all 18 if that is what you are thinking. I just want to be able to get the stats I believe are ideal for my Avatar.

18 Int for mages, 18 Str for fighters, etc... ...

So is there a way? I hope so, because I am going to burst a vein if I have to roll my stats for another half-an-hour... ...

I have found something that bugs when using SK. Don't manipulate your saved game while in the pocket plane. When I have tried this, the game will shut down when I try to leave. This only happens when I've used Sk on a saved game in the pocket plane. Hope this helps...

While using Shadow Keeper, don't do anything out of the ordinary! Stats, doesnt matter, Resistances, try to keep the resonable. NO SCREWING THE CLASS DATA! Don't make a monk inquistodor, it WILL crash your game. No items you havent gotten already, no Innate spells you havent heard of, and dont even think about setting a proficiency to 7. Keep your HP reasonable and changing your sprite model is a MAJOR no-no.

I found a way to give myself permanent improved alacrity though. Interesting little tidbit.

If you've got good old Debug mode on, all you have to do is press crtl-8 on the stat generation screen and hey presto - they all switch to 18. If you don't want them to stay that way, simply take a few points off here and there.

Also bear in mind that it sets them to 18 even if that's not normally possible for their race (elves with CON 18 etc), so if you want the character to be 'by the book' ensure these values are accurate. Plus, some races can go over 18, so you will have to adjust these aswell.

This function is a godsend.

umm, he just said he didnt want to do that...

id say use SK, but try not to give yourself godly stats or anything like that (i.e., nothing over racial limits). when i use SK to edit stats, i give some to one stat and take some from another. dont like 'cheating'. and if you create the innate ability, you can use it! i gave a few of my characters all four Super Saiyan transformation spells...

------------------
It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury...What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha, ha, ha. And at the center of that injury, wil be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with the energy of the Planet, I will be come a new life form, a new existence. Melding with the Planet, I will cease to exist as I am now. Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every living soul.

True, but they don't have to remain at 18. Since this is at the point where characters stats would be rolled normally, all you have to do is use the + and -keys next to the stats to level the characters out.

Remember, you don't need to use all the points allocated to you, simply adjust them so they're not godlike and press accept. Et Voila!

Stats of 18 are not godlike, stats of 21+ are godlike.
