Matt has them do 4d6 drop 1 roll... buuuutttt if the total stats are below 70 you get to re-roll (that makes for a dice roll range of 70-108 for stats). This almost always garuntees better stats then point buy, there is still the chance of having some low stats (hence Nott's 5 charisma) but equally if you do that means having some really high stats elsewhere.

And that's before adding racials. Beau might have a +1 in all stats meaning she rolled 80 combined total (or 84 if shes varient) before hand, out of the maximum 108 that could be gotten (though going much higher then 80 is increasingly unlikely). Jester got a much better 86, Travis got 77, Tal got 75, Nott 73, Caleb 80 (or 84), and I think Yasha is down at the lowest with 71 rolled.
