A lot of the builds that I end up posting on here are theoretical experiments that are used to improve my actual in-play builds.I'll do a post for each build as it is as present, link to my theoretical build on CharOps if it exists, and quickly detail the why things are different.[sblock=disclaimers]I don't do full-blown optimized builds in actual play for many reasons, but mainly I don't like to be the person who is the superstar of every table. I like to range from strong contributor to star and the builds usually reflect this. So these builds may have significant flaws. Some of these flaws are deliberate even if there are superior options elsewhere. Sometimes, they're just flaws and I'm happy to fix such things.I like bizarre builds that don't fit the mold. Especially ones with odd tactical options that don't necessarily appear to have strong synergy. I don't have problems with a starting primary stat of 16 before racials for a race that doesn't get a +2 to that stat. If you try to play one of these and it plays badly, it is possible that you hit a big run of bad luck or weren't playing the synergy correctly.I like to be able to talk and not suffer potential skill challenge death from an overly 'you talked, you make the Diplomacy check' DM. Many of my characters have some sort of Face potential as a result.I almost exclusively play in LFR face to face. I go to an occasional convention to play. The builds need to be practical for LFR - I often need to assume that something won't be available to me at the table, such as a particular role or capability.I do not think that many of these builds are the best ever. They're fun for me to play and that's what is important. There most certainly could be ways to make them more fun and I don't mind at all hearing thoughts about it.If you're interested in rules arguments, this is the wrong thread.[/sblock]</blockquote>
