Be specific, what did he do to Nok-Nok and how would you build him instead? Just curious
He gave him 8! levels of Barb. Desiderius already covered why this is far from optimal and what would be some better multiclass options. So I'm just gonna compare him to a Rogue 20:
InEffect's Nok Nok at L20:
17 BAB
6d8 Sneak Attack
Rage
Some Damage Reduction that YOU DO NOT CARE ABOUT AT ALL. ARGHH!
Nok Nok Kinfe Master 20:
15 BAB
10d8 Sneak Attack
Rogue Talents. They're good.
Comparing the two:
InEffect's gets +2BAB and 2 extra attacks, a bite at -5 and an iterative one at -15. Rage gives him an extra +3 Attack, +2 Damage, -3 AC. He also gets some Damage Reduction that, I repeat, does not help anything, at all. And some speed, for some reason.
A KM20 gets +4d8 Sneak, his Debilitating Injury gives a -8 penalty instead of a -6, and Double Debilitation allows him to debuff both his target's AC and AB at the same time. The better DI essentially cancels out InEffect's extra BAB. The extra iterative attack realistically only hits on an (uncomfirmed) crit or 3/10 of the time, and only if the opponent hasn't exploded by then, and is pretty thoroughly outcompeted by the extra damage on the first attacks of a KM20. The Rage bonuses and bite attack are legit, but very much not worth losing 8 levels of Rogue for. A KM16/Barb4 would be justifiable, but even then losing 2 sneak dice and some Rogue Talents means it's not strictly and unequivocally better.
Reading through his guides again, I remembered more of this lunacy:
Octavia: He gives her 2 useless Alchemist levels, when the cardinal rule of building full casters is "Thou shalt not lose caster level needlessly". He also recommends Disintegrate, which betrays a hilarious lack of understanding of how she works. At L12, Disintegrate, with a fort save, deals 22d6 + 5d6 Sneak. Meanwhile, the humble Scorching Ray deals 12d6 +15d6 Sneak with no save. At L16, Hellfire Ray starts firing off a second ray and takes over as "the absolute best use of your spell slots and actions". Disintegrate deals marginally better damage at the levels after Scorching Ray has stopped scaling and before Hellfire Ray comes online. But the fort save makes it almost always worse, even then.
Linzi: Other than that fucking rogue level, he stops leveling her as a bard so she can shoot better with a fucking crossbow. A crossbow! Do I even need to explain why this is beyond retarded?
Kalikke and Kanerah: Again with the useless class dip that gains nothing. Again with the writeup that hilariously misses the point of what makes a class good. He even managed to fail giving Cloud to Kanerah for good measure.
I could go on, but I've wasted enough time already.
who cares how he plays his game.
I don't care about how he plays his game. I care that A) any time a newbie asked for a build advice he was told to follow these abominations, and B) any time someone DARED to criticise InEffect's idiocy, morons like you came out of the woodwork to defend your lord and saviour's honour.
missed some good dialogue that probably hoses the Nyrissa romance.
You're still good to go if you get Vordakai AND Armag.
