One thing I have noticed about the boards is that, on average, classes with excellent optimization guides get played more often than classes that don't. Unfortunately for Pathfinder aficionados, most of the best 3.5 optimization guides don't apply to Pathfinder because they use class features, feats and items unavailable to "PF Pure" games or were written at the launch of Pathfinder, before Ultimate Magic, Ultimate Combat, and the Advanced Player's Guide.
I would like this thread to serve three purposes:
1. To act as a compendium of optimization guides for Pathfinder classes.
2. To inspire people to make optimization guides for those classes that lack them.
3. To inspire people to make better optimization guides for outdated or incomplete guides.
