Just play a Druid 20

A gygaxian dungeon is like the world's most messed up game show.

Behind door number one: INSTANT DEATH!
Behind door number 2: A magic crown!
Behind door number 3: 4d6 giant bees, and THREE HUNDRED POUNDS OF HONEY!
They don't/haven't, was the point. 3.5 is as dead as people not liking nice tits.

Sometimes, their tits (3.5) get enhancements (houserules), but that doesn't mean people don't like nice tits.

Though sometimes, the surgeon (DM) botches them pretty bad...
Best metaphor I have seen in a long time.  I give you much fu.
Three Errata for the Mage-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Barbarian-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Monks doomed to die,
One for the Wizard on his dark throne
In the Land of Charop where the Shadows lie.

You forgot "I want to make my DM cry"
If at first you don't succeed - maybe failure is your style.

Would you like fries with that?

Alternatively: Would you like to supersize that?

Dude, you guys are all clearly forgetting the best build ever: Fighter 20. All other builds are strictly inferior.

Oh yeah?  Time for a Wizard 20 vs. Fighter 20 duel!

Not true. The superiority of the build comes from the roleplaying aspects of your build and it is the build itself that determines how your character should be roleplayed. While Fighter 20 is mechanically very strong, it can never reach the heights of my half-orc Wizard who started with an intelligence score of six because of bad rolls. Now I am at level 12 and in the last battle my Kroush threw his first cantrip. Unfortunately No light was useless our opponents had darkvision, but roleplay-wise it was great.

In short, I loathe all of you rollplayers. Learn to play the game and don't focus on the mechanics so much, it makes it impossible for you to roleplay.

You know, I worry for those people who might read this thread and not realize what great humor it holds.

Oh, but you assume that the Fighter 20 wasn't as enjoyable. Beginning with a Strength score of 1 (minimum), he overcame adversity on the battlefield where his fellow cadets called him weak and complained that he was only slowing down the squadron. These harsh criticisms greatly affected him and, in a fit of rage, he slew them all while they slept (coup de grace for the win...). After his blind fury subsided he realized what he had done and sought to repent, becoming a dedicated zealot of Pelor. After many campaigns against wicked demons and undead, however, he was struck down. He willfully threw himself between a demon and one of his own allies even though he had already suffered terrible injuries and knew that he would surely die. This tragic decision (in which he had the choice to save himself but not the opportunity because he knew he could only do what was right) made him highly enjoyable.

You have to remember that roll-play and role-play are not mutually exclusive. The awesome might of Fighter 20 can be made very enjoyable in terms of story and flavor, though I do admit that it tends to fall into the hands of munchkins as all b0rken builds surely do.

...And now I wish we had the :shifty: smiley. ;)

I'm really glad with the group of CO-board members we have. It's a great combination of good senses of humor, wit, and optimization prowess.
