[QUOTE="airwalkrr, post: 3102649, member: 12460"] I'd merely like to say that I didn't vote because there was no "maybe" or "it depends" option. The fact of the matter is unsolicited optimization advice is not welcome when I am the player being offered advice. I know how to optimize my characters thank you very much and I do not need anyone telling me how I could make a better character. Fact of the matter is I usually choose to give my characters a "human element," a weakness so that they are a bit more interesting to play. I don't enjoy playing in campaigns where the characters are not expected to have any weaknesses. Superman would be a boring comic strip if kryptonite weren't around. "Oh look, Superman wins without a challenge again." However, I know a lot of new players who don't know much about the game and welcome character optimization advice with open arms. I never offer it unless asked in case the player is like me, intentionally building weaknesses into his character. However, sometimes I do ask if the player would appreciate advice. Newer players often do. With veteran players I rarely bother. [/QUOTE]
