Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ruin Explorer" data-source="post: 9692196" data-attributes="member: 18">Do you need me to define them for every class in 5E? In every RPG? In D&D most classes have one "correct" primary stat that only weird builds (usually of the precise type this thread is decrying!) involving Feats or multiclassing might change - a few have a choice of two. I think this is an uncontroversial assertion. Like, Fighter, the "right" stats will generally mean STR or DEX primary (unless you're going for some kind of multiclass or Feat-supported gish), and probably CON secondary. With Warlock, it's definitely going to be CHA primary. And so on. Its not rocket science. You could probably design a flow-chart for it.And words still do have meaning - if we intentionally misuse common words like "optimizer" (which has a very relevant and common usage in D&D) to mean specifically and solely "person who is intentionally trying to break the game", we are at best communicating incompetently. Again at worst we're intentionally trolling (I don't think anyone here is yet). That is the reason this thread exists - one poster wanted to redefine optimizer like that. He's hardly the only poster in history or on this board who has tried to redefine a common word or phrase in an unhelpfully specific and narrow jargon-y way (he's not even the only one I've seen today!), but it doesn't make it a good thing.(I'm responding because I presume your text is intentionally not red)</blockquote>
