[QUOTE="Coroc, post: 7279327, member: 6895991"] I might be in a minority, but not in an extreme one. there are many oldschoolers also in this forum who like 5e but do it their way (which is heavily encouraged by 5e you can read it in the official books: you do not like or miss an aspect of the game or a rule: change it) Of course my players know upfront and they normally would go for reasonable builds. Do not get me wrong I like powergaming also (most of the time even) but I do not like to combine rules which may be legal RAW and AL but sound like the kennedy magic bullet theory to achieve a questionable advantage in game. Keep in mind (luckily) 5e does punish multiclassing and makes multiclassing chars often a one trick pony. I can understand people who try to find loopholes for the fun of it, but I expect a DM to counter it in some way or another, because not every player wants to compete for dpr in a pen and paper game, like the damage dealers in an mmorpg raid. To understand where I come from is to understand that if someone plays a pally at my table, I expect him to act it out. And no holy knight of lawful goodness would see any point in taking up the job of a guy who steals from other people. Nor would he take up the life of a common soldier, whoring, drinking and gambling to spend their war loot. [/QUOTE]
