Nah. Doctor Fart can do 1499 damage per turn by level 4.

I've had a few players that have made absolutely ridiculous characters but played them very well and it was a good experience. The first one is a strong no. I've never seen anyone who does a broken meta build do anything beyond ruin everyone's time and complain (or quit) if the DM reins them in at all.

Then he got turned into the campaign's secret big bad that was only revealed at the very end. THAT worked out well. Turned out he could control his powers and just used us to get rid of his also evil archnemesis of his before attacking the party.

In half the campaigns, the Doctor Farts PC ends up being the MVP because they weren't minmaxed and as a result have much more utility.

This post did not contain any content.Do you think the people who make Dr Farts want to play with other people who make Dr Farts type characters? And the people who make 1500 dmg/turn combat monsters, do they want to play with other combat monsters? I feel like sometimes no. Sometimes people want to be the odd one out. Which sucks, because a group that's homogeneous on this aspect I think can work pretty well. If everyone's a combat monster the GM can go crazy. But if there's just one or two combat monsters, now they have to figure out how to keep it fun for them and also Bob The Fighter that hits for 1d8+2 each turn.

I've never seen anyone who does a broken meta build do anything beyond ruin everyone's time and complain (or quit) if the DM reins them in at all.The first one works in a campaign that expects everyone to do the first one (and where the GM does the same for the enemies). Assuming the character is still a character when looking beyond the stats, that is.

To be fair, if the DM allows Gestalt, they deserve whatever you throw at them.

They don’t know what it’d be like, so they try it. Giving players a silly character swap voucher, good for just one session per campaign, solves that. Similar deal for the overjuiced character. (Not usable during story boss encounters) Once people recognize that the boundaries are there to improve their experience, not detract from it, they usually follow the flow of the game and build on others’ characters. If they don’t, chairs are easy to fill.

So this is my character. Her name is Armpits Esquire and she’s three halfling paladin brothers from a dead order in a trenchcoat. Because of their stacking auras, they are nearly- no, you can continue loading, it gets worse.”Okay but *Armpits Esquire* has the kind of whimsy I love best.
