Impossible roll?

[WiseGrimwald]

I have just had a roll on Baldur's Gate without a re-roller. Which I couldn't believe.
What are the odds of a roll like this?

Next to impossible. Congratulations! It's much less likely on certain character classes and races. You'll get lower rolls on, say, a generic human fighter, than you will a paladin or elven ranger, as they have minimum stat requirements that the game grants you once you choose that class.

I was pretty darn lucky when it came to rolls (hit 101 twice), but nothing comes close to a 107. I'd say a celebration is in order. The question is, will you still get restartitis with the character?

Congrats on the roll!
Calculating the odds of that happening depends on minimal value of the abillity score (for example, if a minimal is 9, rolls below that value would be reaised to 9 as default). And even knowing them, I'm not the math guy and I wouldn't bother making the calculations. I simply consider your a very lucky

I vaguely remember someone on the Beamdog forums posting the math some time ago... I can't remember the numbers, of course (though their post may still be there), just that it's truly astronomical - even with a paladin.
