Actually Charisma is a dump stat in D&D but not in RL. Its the opposite.

Being maxed out in every other stat can get you far in life, but its always the CHA that takes the cake. There are weak, stupid, rude, uncoordinated people, that have big tits/dicks or can tell a good joke and they make BANK. Whenever someone that is super strong or smart makes a lot of money or is at the top of the economic ladder its because they also have a high CHA score in combination with their other abilities. Arnold wasn't really famous until he started acting, even though he was massively strong. Really good musicians aren't really well off unless they're able to connect to consumers. Neil Degrasse Tyson is really smart, but we know who he is because he's good looking and can talk to people.

Charisma was better back when it basically determined how many expendable morons you could trick into following you into the Dungeon, that was the original point of the stat actually

I thought leadership was a thing in 3rd edition. No clue about 4th or 5th though. Or 6th. Whatever.

That's a lot of words, but Credit Rating is the real best stat.

Back in AD&D days basically every character had a leadership score determined by charisma, which set your max number of leveled followers and their loyalty. Sure the game was more lethal but you were basically supposed to take a dozen expendable dudes in with you to stand in front and activate all the gently caress You traps a la The Mummy movie from 2000

Charisma (Cha)

Charisma measures a character’s force of personality, persuasiveness, personal magnetism, ability to lead, and physical attractiveness. This ability represents actual strength of personality, not merely how one is perceived by others in a social setting.

Charisma is probably the IRL dump stat for most goons yeah

Doesn't "dump stat" mean the stat you keep low so your other stats can be real high?

I don't think irl goons have a dump stat, then.

It is a sequel to 3.5. It is has some good ideas but has real bad encounter design math, and spellcasters are once again godlike while the only way melee dudes interact with the game is hitting things for tiny amounts of damage. If you want to roll dice and move dudes around a grid then play 4e. Otherwise maybe play Dungeon World or Mouse Guard or something.
