It was only a matter of time, right? While technical tricks like stacking a thousand explosive barrels or leveraging fall damage for Owlbear elbow drops are impressive in their own way, I've yet to see anything truly representing Dungeons & Dragons' frightening powergaming underbelly from Baldur's Gate 3's community. That is, until now.

I don't want to copy the text here, because credit where credit is due. And some things are marked as spoilers, which idk if all Lemmy clients support.

Essentially 8 levels of monk, 3 in Rogue Thief, Tavern Brawler, and 22 STR getting 8 attacks due to extra bonus attacks and flurry of blows due to feats and gear mods.
And some various WIS as damage gear mods, and some other bonuses.
