Your charisma is rather... small.

10-11 is average, and 18 is the highest attribute score that a character can start with (without racial modifiers). And every race that grants bonus to charisma also has a level adjustment. :colbert:

I think abbreviations for specific raids/instances/whatevers is too game specific for this kind of thing, Lockharted. Just saying.

Anyway, I don't really care about the words I use because of a connection between gamers or anything. It's just a more efficient way to communicate with people who know the terms.

I use "noob", "pro" and "imba" in the life of reals, but that's about it.
