Let me be clear: this is not about creative optimization. This is about those moments when you look at a character sheet and wonder what the hell the player was thinking. I'll kick it off with this: a player, who ended up not joining the campaign, showed up with a character who spoke thirteen(!) languages... all at rating 1. Yes, rating 1 (one). I never did get an explanation of why he thought this was a good idea. It wasn't even related to the concept (which he said was a "weapons master.")
