Can players have scores as high as 20=+5 mod ?

@DerynDraconisPlayers can have scores as high as 20=+5 mod
Consequently how overcome max DC 30 Strength check (no prof bonus & no magic item)? impossible without boost of some kind

@DerynDraconisThanks Mike! So “naked” ability check has cap of DC25, but if there are skills proficiencies or bonus I can raise DC to 30. yes, that's a good approach
