Point Buy System

On the BotB website, it says that 25 points will be the norm, and Argyle, as 'a dangerous place' will use 28 points. However, on the Bioware site, it says they are currently using 30 points. What's the deal?

Hey, Cornflakes.

The "deal" is this: Argyle is a completely seperate deal from Bioware. You can have a character you role up from the NWN software, but if it is a 30 point character, it would not be legal in Argyle.

As for the BotB site: I think Xandax has simply not updated his original statement (25 points). Originally, Bioware was talking about 25 point characters, but this is all in a state of flux. So, rather than change his website every two weeks, I think Xandax just let that number sit.

@Xandax: is that correct?

That is correct - I hadn't been aware that Bioware had changed point-buy amount.
I'll check it out and update site as soon as possible (with some more new members and bios)
