His power selection is legal, as far as I can tell: he has at least one psion and one wizard power for each type of power. Even his wizard dailies are not that encounter-breaking unless you get unlucky with the saving throws. The only real power combo that he has going on with his equipment/feats/powers is a Staff of Ruin (SoR) combined with Dual Implement Spellcaster (DIS) and the Siberys Shard of the Mage (SSotM).There are some things you should check with this character:1) He should not be quadruple-dipping on the enhancement bonus with DIS + SoR. At best, he should get a triple-dip when dual wielding the staff as an implement, but only on wizard powers:+3 enhancement+3 item (SoR)+3 untyped (DIS, dual-wielding the staff as an implement)+6 or 7 intelligence+2 implement focus+3 untyped (SSotM)-------------+20 or +21 to damage, total, for wizard powers2) He does not get DIS with Psion powers, since they are not arcane:+3 enhancement+3 item (SoR)+6 or 7 intelligence+2 implement focus+3 untyped (SSotM)--------------+17 or +18 to damage, total, for psion powersHe'd also get +3 damage from the guardian staff superior implement property on Cranial Disturbance and Telekinetic Maul.His bonus to hit should be something like this:+3 enhancement+2 feat (Staff Expertise)+6 or +7 intelligence+7 half level---------------+18 or +19 to hitAt best, he's hitting an on-level average monster 70% of the time, which is good but not game breaking.As suggested by other people, it sounds like Scrubb might be playing funny games with the rules. I'd be interested in hearing what he does that you perceive as broken since he may be outright cheating. I'm also interested in his bonuses to hit and damage, since he may just be doing the math wrong.If he's not actually cheating, I think that you and the other players are overreacting. I have further thoughts on this matter, but I will keep them to myself until we find out what it is that Scrubb is actually doing.</blockquote>
