Two of my favorite Korean mangas that explore this stats idea is The Gamer and DICE. The Gamer is fun, DICE is a philosophical mind fk.
EirikurDC
Skills and attributes are separate, dammit.
Joejitsu
Charisma!!!
GeneralGinger531
Go out and socialize. There are more sources for exp than just grinding in DnD. Intelligence and Charisma all the way for me.
pawningpanda
Oh boy! Here I go killing again.
OpenMindOpenMouth
Jump cut to me crouched in a corner where nobody sees constanly trying to walk against the wall.
RubicksQoob
But do you have to harvest their spleens for XP? If so, where's the NPC for the turn-in?
emptyother
Only if anyone asks for it. Hospitals take blood donations. That guy in the alley buys intestines. Havent found the spleen trader yet.
bagoffishstix
Sweet jump cut
SamB
You can actually do this by going to the gym.
Pssh. You don't gain xp at the gym. But maybe they got an arena, thats always a quick way to gain xp.
LordTairan
7 points into luck then go play blackjack until every casino kicks you out
zhu529
So many of you default to killing. I'd just hack into personal devices. Easier time staying out of prison which is basically a PVP Zone.
4vie
Max out that luck stat.
ImgurDemonym
Guess what. You can do this in real life. Go the a gym = str dex con, uni = int wis, public speaking = cha
Rifneno
Plot twist: this is the horrible origin story of 9/11
DarkBusterBaron
Nah cause they lost all the exp when they died.
Draenic
See, in real life strength will get you diddly squat. All in CHA. In fact, subtract a point or two from all the rest and up CHA. You 1/2
would become monstrously successful overnight. 2/2

Piscivore
My health sucks, so Constitution for me.
TheSpeakerOfTheHouse
If you're fat then that'll just make it worse, go with Dexterity.
BellerophonM
How do you figure?
Whatever fixes my knee.
llAzraelll
... dexterity or luck feels a lot more valuable irl
Also intelligence and charisma.
SirSage
Dex build? Heresy. How will you wield your giant hammer?
LdaQuirm
Projectile weapons are OP IRL. Dex & Luck all the way.
dracko19
and yet, no matter how many times I try to stay a barbarian, I always end up looking like this ?
DeputyChiefJudgeFish
Sounds like you need more bloodlust.
CriticalDog
Her butt plug is very fancy.
pogon
Looks like it might be pretty cold though.
Arracor
Don't lie, we know about the bow you're hiding.
lawrabbit
Do I just murder stuff for XP, or do I actually have to accomplish things?
Murder isn't an accomplishment? I have failed at life!
GentryFriedRichFillets
This is the core concept of the plot to "The Gamer"
WyldStallionz1
Or Dice
I have not read Dice. Given our usernames, I should probably check it out.
Rule29
Dice got a little too psychological thriller for me. Have you tried legendary moonlight sculpture?
Nope, I have not. Similar vein?
narwhalswithmonocles
Also a newer one called Solo Leveling. I like the style better, even though it's a bit edge-lordy sometimes.
Colopty
Story is pretty lame though, like 99% of the writing is just listing his stat increases and gained skills.
Spidey209
*Pours a jug of boiling water on an anthill*
awesomecat42
If you're going to commit genocide on ants at least use molten aluminum and get a neat sculpture out of it.
TheSecondPiewackit
Then sell the sculpture for a small bonus!
pseudopseudonym
Just remember you can't get your last level that way.
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I'll use real hot milk on the next one
fredthebadger
Eight? which eight? is one Luck? Reason to go to a casino finally!
mtnbunny
I want to know the other options please...
Most likely it's strength, charisma, intelligence, wisdom, constitution, and dexterity.
feeltheice
Wisdom, and intelligence. Max out my income, then have a private island I hunt things... now constitution, str cha and dex I can level up
Naturally
TheJomsborgViking
What are the remaining 7? Most games have 6 or 7. If the magical 8th one is Luck, I am taking that one all the way to the bank.
Then maybe robbing that bank..
MrNailbrain
I’ve played enough Fallout to know that Int and Luck are the essential skills.
Crowlands
"Oh, you got +10 unarmed because of your stats? I got 10 more points to spend. I could put them in unarmed."
But I'll probably go energy weapons instead.
Radix865
Low int run is also fun. Though because Bethesda screwed up the system in Fallout 4, you can't do it there anymore.
Sh4dowWalker96
Thankfully, Outer Worlds has dialogue options if you drop your INT.
RoovyRoo
I'd put it into "gumption" or "a certain je ne sais quoi"
fizzbitch
TheGoodKingOfImgur
The cut of my jib is on another fucking level
SpaceKingKittan
Panache
What’s your dump stat, Chutzpah?
mmmat
I could do with a few more points in vim
You got a lot of moxie. I can see so on your character sheet.
Disco Bandit or Accordion Thief?
RazTheBaz
In "West of loathing" Gumption is an actual stat.
Huh. Didn't know there was a home game based on KoL.
3Davideo
Definitely going all in on "vim".
Brochiavelli
I’m more of a vigor man, myself.
:wq
I see no one reading this uses Unix editors.
drunkleqrow
All points into INT and WIS. Now I'll learn how to level up faster, faster.
Inkycricket
Knowing how to level up and being able to is a different story.
Plus with wisdom I'd actually hit the gym and get that strength up instead of making excuses...
MC in The Gamer does exactly this. Two of my favorite Korean mangas that explore this stats idea is The Gamer and DICE.
Drimphed
I love The Gamer so much. I'd love an actual video game based off that system.
Do you read "Solo Leveling"?
No, what is that?
https://manganelo.com/chapter/pn918005/chapter_0
You should definitely read solo leveling hero and legendary moonlight sculpture. Both great manga. And LMS is finally updating after a year
BronzeLeaguePro
Well, every kill gives you at least ONE xp right? And an anthill have a lot of ants, and boiling water kills ants, right?
Use molten aluminum. Put all your points into CHA. Sell and repeat until maxed out everything.
These are advanced strats. I like it!
This is like buying a single weapon with banishing on it in Skyrim and then making 1.2 trillion iron daggers of banishing using minimal
resources
*Awkward cha 8 intelligence 14 finger guns*
6 INT screaming "HE'S GOT A GUN!"
*Wisdom 6 confusion, and also facepalm*
IhaveWAYtoomanyfetishes
Everyone knows that boars in the forest are the best way to gain xp
HerNameWasMagil
But the easiest is cows.
Thatsmykenku
Quilboar tusks
LagIncarnate
Protip: go after humans, so that you can then kill their zombie, AND kill their skeleton. That's like, three enemies in one fight.
BlazeDragon777
Obelix???
Kommanche
It's a reference to South Park - Make Love Not Warcraft.
PierzOr
Dude just get a high lvl to boost ya in deadmines...
CaptainClarification
Well I'm stuck on hello kitties island adventure rn
phobos535
I dont know, in Gothic boars would fuck you up. Rats are probably the safer way
AllTheGoodOnesWereGone
In the original Everquest you went out into a zone consisting of one big green polygon and one big blue polygon, and got killed by...
...three polygon rats.
TheBestExecutiveDeliveryBoy
Galeanthropist
I've found the most powerful item in the game! The rock of boar slaying!
ImAfraidYoureAllPsychosSoIMadeThisAccount
A snake kicks *YOU* for 10 points of damage.
sometwatstolemyusername
But boars are only worth 2 xp a piece, do you know how long it would take to get 50 levels that way?
WhatUpIGotABigHawk
You would have to have no life. Which is the only way to kill that which has no life.
PeroltaThatsEnough
Yeeeeeaaaah..... live.... yeeaaaah! Win!!!
jesus69er
So many boars

You also get a timed XP bonus if you complete the quest in 3 - 5 minutes

ILoveCreamPies
Thank you for this flashback.

Real talk: That shit can be scary. One boar nearly red ferned my friend's 160lb dog. Those fuckers are mean.

Do they really travel in giant packs?
