[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 6703345, member: 2067"] For some D&D players, it is basically all about the DPR. Others have other things they like. It's a big game, folks play it in a lot of different ways. I might personally question how satisfying the goal of max DPR can be in a game where clever role playing or a good Stealth check can out DPR [I]anything[/I] (oh, you bypassed that entire encounter with a single check? That's equivalent to eleventy million hit points of damage or whatever, guess my meticulously researched character build ISN'T the most efficient...), but that designer's minutae doesn't always matter to folks playing the game. For some folks, the max-DPR build is itself the fun part. That's cool. ...it does make me wonder what it would look like if you just made a competitive game out of character building though....:) [/QUOTE]
