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 love stuff like this. I hope they don't go around nerfing and patching the fun out of the game. Most people are never going to play a build like this, but the idea that you can and the idea that tinkering and understanding the rules can lead to stuff like this makes playing and discovery really fun beyond just the games story.
