Nah, it doesn't take much to do as well as the least skillful munchkins. They are the ones who don't know any power-combos yet, but are still willing to ignore the characterisation and roleplaying potentials of their character and make decisions purely for mechanical gain, even if they aren't so great at getting the gain yet. I'm sure you could do that if you had the right (or wrong, as many see itBrother Shatterstone said:Probably a good thing as I doubt I could make a first level character better than even the worse munchkin could.
) state of mind Then you don't really like to min/max....you just like to max!Seeten said:

Heehee, how greedy! Sounds like what I like when I'm playing. What I usually do is just raise my Charisma to 12 and hope I can roleplay out what I want anyways through vivid descriptions (to see a crazy example of this in action, watch my somber 12 Charisma Spryte Magister accidentally sweet-talk a girl from wanting to have him beaten up and kicked out of her inn into joining the party and giving him a kiss in A Warping of the Blood.Seeten said:
If I'm playing a super-low PB game, I'll dump Strength, Wisdom, then Charisma, and finally Dexterity. I'm remarkably bad at playing any Intelligence below 16ish unless the character is so incredibly dumb that I can treat him or her as completely mentally retarded, as I'm bad at playing below my Int, and even when it works, I get frustrated, and Con can't be dumped if I expect to live.Brother Shatterstone said:
