    D&D 5E (2014) A simple questions for Power Gamers, Optimizers, and Min-Maxers.

    I had this exact same problem. I'd make the best character and then it would be boring to play. The fun was in the making of the character itself not the playing. To get past this you have to focus on a story for your character and make it fun to play. Why are you so good? What are you bad...

    Well put but there will always be that selfish person at the table who is all about me me me. Finding tables isn't easy for some so they are stuck at a table they might not be enjoying as much as they should. So my point was, without finding another table, work with the DM/group to make your...

    D&D 5E (2014) A simple questions for Power Gamers, Optimizers, and Min-Maxers.

    The most satisfying thing to me is to make a character with some thought of OK this is what I'm good at. It's such a kick in the balls when I fail that thing I'm good at but doesn't mean I can't fail in hystericaly bad fashion. It's the DMs job to create challenges to satisfy that player's need...

    D&D 5E (2014) A simple questions for Power Gamers, Optimizers, and Min-Maxers.

    I've started doing that as well. I will Min/Max support as my table just want to play a certain thing/way and I'm insurance that they will live as well as be generally useful. Been thinking about rolling a pally polearm master with sentinel and dipping into lock to cheese darkness and devil's...

    D&D 5E (2014) A simple questions for Power Gamers, Optimizers, and Min-Maxers.

    Haha I wasn't! That's great to know. I've only played a couple 5e games. I mostly play pathfinder and Rifts. I really like the rules of 5e though and am trying to find a way to weave them into the Rifts universe. Edit: I still wouldn't though. Another example is Variant Human Polearm Master...

    D&D 5E (2014) A simple questions for Power Gamers, Optimizers, and Min-Maxers.

    I wouldn't. In my circles there are lots of lazy people who never want to put in the work to make a "better" character. They will bitch and moan for op races though. I used to be a horrible min/maxer I've learned that rolling a toon I love role playing trumps all. However I still like to min/max...

    D&D 5E (2014) In combat riding and movement

    I think everyone is thinking too hard here. The familiar uses the PC's speed while riding the PC. If that was 3 seconds of 6 before it took off in the air then it would get 3 seconds of movement at its speed. I would also rule if the PC ran then the owl just would fly at its own speed. Sent...
