      the fun thing is, you could literally just do everything completely randomly and your build will still be good

        I wouldn’t know

        I make all my choices based on sheer Rule of Cool-ness – I start with a vibe and build for that.

        BUT. None of my GMs are tryhards, so maybe if I brought my characters to a tryhard session they’d get wiped.

          honestly choosing the coolest thing every time is probably the best way to build a character

          maybe, but for tryhard games you’d make a tryhard character anyway

            That’s the thing though

            I have no idea how.

            Since PF2 came out I got by just fine on making unique and fun but entirely unoptimised characters. So I never bothered learning what synergises with what to make a tryhard character.

              oh well you’d just have to play a bunch of characters and see what is strongest

              or watch videos about optimizing characters. there are a bunch of those (a couple of youtube channels i’d recommend for that are swingripper and mathfinder)
