[QUOTE="Lyxen, post: 8384089, member: 7032025"] This is a simple and direct conclusion. Very unlikely coincidence indeed. But then it might happen, I did even say so myself. :p No, actually, that was you. I never said that. No again, what I said was that there are purely selfish reasons at the source of technically optimising a character. But feel free to deny it. Uh ? Even on that forum, the proportion is not that high, and I still think I've found a nest... ;) No, that is you pretending to be me in a vain quest of proving me wrong. And still, I have provided ample evidence that roleplaying is one of the core design intent of every single D&D edition since BECMI, whereas not one single person has provided the same kind of evidence about building optimised characters. And this especially after the 5e designers themselves wrote: "To play D&D, [B][U]and to play it well[/U][/B], you don’t need to read all the rules, memorize every detail of the game, or master the fine art of rolling funny looking dice. None of those things have any bearing on what’s best about the game." However, again, if you have fun doing it, all the more power to you. [/QUOTE]
