I saw in a bunch of subjects that commoner is really easily broken, and could be really powerful.
Excuse my skeptism, but I just can't see that happening. I would really like some proof for that claim.

Soooo...... How do you break the commoner?

What?
I was actually expecting more of a build, rather than such a pointless answer.....

It was clearly a joke, and rather funny in my opinion.

The commoner 20 as the most powerful class is a joke as well.

Cross-class ranks in UMD, Candle of Invocation+Pun+Pun trick. Blamo, broke the Commoner.

Cuz I can do the same thing with a level 1 Human Ardent, or any other class. That's not a broken commoner, that's Pun-Pun right there. He's broken no matter what you use as his base.

Kinda related, but I always felt that at least one level in expert would actually be very good if you are doing certain characters. Maybe a rogue could benefit from such a thing?

Is there any merit to this theory?

But that does make the class broken, as Pun-Pun would be a 20th level Commoner who can do absolutely anything.

Taking a level in savant or factotum would be better.

That's what I said. Or, tried to say, if I wasn't clear.
