I think you should do 53+4d10dl1, so the average is about equal to the total of a standard array (72)

dl1? Is that keep lowest die?

RNG is fun in character creation, but I don't want to punish them in the whole campaign for poor luck. I prefer to keep their highest than their lowest.

drop lowest 1, so keep highest 3 as you said, but with 53 instead of 50

Ah, so add an extra 3 on so the average roll lines up with the standard array. Fair enough, I might just start doing that. Thanks!

Edit: Also, thanks for teaching me a new bit of dice terminology
