5e offers three ways to generate ability scores: dice rolls, the standard array, and point buy. Sounds like you’re using the point buy variant in this game.
It also gives bonuses to certain ability scores based on the race you choose (or maybe some other criteria in whatever changes they’ve made for One D&D) so 16 isn’t really the max even at level 1.
That’s the only way when I did the character creation. But I am glad that we don’t have to do the dice roll one(which is a cheat engine magnet), so I guess it means in order to gain from 16->17 I would need to subtract more points from other stats just to level up 1 point.(cause that + button didn’t light up when I reduced 2 or 3 points from Wisdom) but it seems that’s very costly trade. A point to point seems more fair and let you create some crazy biased char out of gate.
