So I’m familiar with DOS: EE and the element mechanics of combat, but I’m not sure if that applies to DnD 5e.

But last night I threw a fireball cantrip at a group of goblins standing in grease, and what do you know but the whole gang go up in flames!

Does anyone know of other great spell or skill combinations you can use, especially to deal with groups?

Also what are your go-to combat setups?

I’m currently running a Druid, Cleric, Warlock, Fighter so if you can think of combinations from those classes that would be great too.

    • Anything that hits multiple enemies
    • Anything that lets me make multiple attacks per turn

    I can practically solo even the biggest fights as a level 7 monk. If I multiclassed into wizard for some AOEs, it would be even easier.

    Flurry of Blows and Stunning Fist are as OP as ever, and I had heard 5e nerfed the everliving shit out of the class (I’ve not played 5e outside of BG3 but I love 3.5 and pathfinder).

    But more than that, I love improvised weapon and throw. I can use enlarge and literally just toss my enemies at other enemies. It’s fucking awesome.

      I’d love to try out monk in my next play through, I’ve heard they’re not great in 5e, but Larian made some positive changes for them.

      • I heard the same thing, and either the game is different than the PnP rules or the details of the nerf have been greatly exaggerated. Flurry of Blows and Stunning Fist are as OP as they were in 3.5 and Pathfinder.
