About ability scores
Rolling 4d6, drop the lowest is the classic way to generate a character's six ability scores in Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition. For each score you roll four six-sided dice, discard the single lowest die, and add the remaining three together, giving a value between 3 and 18 that skews toward the higher end.
Each score also shows its 5e ability modifier, computed as floor((score − 10) / 2). The modifier is what you actually add to attack rolls, saving throws, and checks tied to that ability.
How it works
