[QUOTE="Sacrosanct, post: 7246906, member: 15700"] Well, a few more observations after several pages of new posts * Any talk about mechanics isn't optimization. It's talk about mechanics. I can talk about cars without talking about how to make them all the fastest * Any player who feels afraid to participate in one or more pillars in the game means you are playing the game wrong. There are very few things that can truly be said that fit the "you are playing wrong" description, but that's one of them. The game is meant to have fun with friends. And if your friends feel afraid to participate in one or more areas, then you're missing the whole point of the game. * I am reminded why I don't like array or point buy. Because according to some people, it results in [I]every PC of a certain class looking exactly like every other PC/NPC of the same class[/I]. Barf. No thank you. It's a role playing game. That means go nuts with concepts as long as you're having fun and explore the myriad of roles one can play. Not every fighter has to max out on STR/DEX and CON. Some of my more memorable experiences gaming over the decades are with PCs who didn't fit the char op mold. And seeing as how I hardly remember who had the most DPR, but I do remember those times where someone did something creative, I know which ones are important for me. [/QUOTE]
