[QUOTE="Ahwe Yahzhe, post: 5506117, member: 55229"] THAT is awesome. It reminds me of 4th-grade, when all the kids pretended to play D&D and loved to brag about their 100th-level characters with 25 Strength (or all six stats), each of whom had Stormbringer and Mjolnir (from the 1st print Deities & Demigods book) from defeating Elric and Thor is single-handed combat. This was long ago, the first and last time D&D was 'cool' to the average kid. I love the idea of you running a little experiment on your game group similar to what was mentioned above. It really sounds like this table doesn't care or want a resident rules lawyer (personally, I prefer a whole table of them to keep me straight.) Accept that this is your ridiculous gaming group, take every mechanic that these players break or ignore and run with it. Tell your DM you've made some minor tweaks to your character to match the house rules. Then you can challenge the DM to actually cite the rules by doing crazy broken stuff, and screw with the cheating players using your crazy broken character in an arms-race of ridiculosity. Barring that, the previous posters had it right: embrace the stupidity or quit this group (because it sounds like you have others.) [/QUOTE]
