[QUOTE="AaronOfBarbaria, post: 6769869, member: 6701872"] I answered for myself on the rare occasions that I get to play, and for my group as they generally behave - and that answer was "a little" because that was as close to what I would really say as possible among the poll options. We take enough care to make sure that each character is "good enough" (i.e. a 14+ in the ability score your character relies on to succeed at challenges placed in front of them, and using things the character is proficient with outside of extenuating circumstances preventing that), but don't put any importance on a character being the best a character can be at something outside of a character concept that actually necessitates it (which aren't played often, since so few actually exist). And we don't worry about making the best possible choice for any given action, just that we don't do anything completely unwise (like throwing a fireball at a red dragon). [/QUOTE]
