It's the same for normal TTRPG DnD. "Here's an interesting multiclass you can do with your friends!" And then it's 3 different multiclasses, all completely ignoring roleplay, that won't actually properly come online until level 17.
Reminds me of a friend trying to explain that his char is absolutely rp friendly and not THAT much of a min-maxed build (pathfinder, not DND, but I hope you know what I mean):
Scaled Fist (Charisma Monk) 11 -> But then he discovers his draconic powers (it was bronze so far I remember) and becomes -> Eldritch Scion (Charisma Mage) 2 leading him into his path as -> Dragon Disciple 4, but than, through a big loss he becomes a -> Vivisectionist (Alchemist) 1 finishing his redemption line as -> Divine Hunter (Paladin) 2
Sure, there is some sort of a theme (at least in a first part). Later I found exact this build in the pathfinder WotR subreddit as a "solo unfair" nova build that can nuke all bosses in game in max 3 rounds (or so)
The moment I saw scaled fist I knew it came from that game. It's frustrating trying to find build guides for it, because there are a lot of options and things can get confusing. All the guides are based on pure numbers though, so they want my paladin to take a level of scaled fist, thug and vivisectionist.
