What is Min-Maxing?
In: Other
In gaming it’s basically building your character, through stat points and gear, towards maximizing a specific attribute. For instance, a person who is playing a DPS (Damage Per Second) class and trying to do as much damage as possible would go for putting all their points into attack and strength, which means they’re *maximizing* their build for damage while *minimizing* another trait (like defense).
The danger of stuff like that in games is that you really need a good team to make it work usually, because if the DPS can only take three hits before they die then you need a Healer who is on point and can keep them alive. Or, if a person puts all their points into defense, they might not be able to do a lot of damage, which can be dangerous in some games because you might not be able to stay alive long enough to kill whatever you’re attacking.
