Is there a reasonable way to improve the attack bonuses of summoned creatures, aside from Bless? Just trying to justify having.. uh... 20 some critters following me around.

You can throw elixirs of cloud / hill giant at them but it lasts 10 rounds so you’d need a lot and patience. But if you’re trying to get weird maybe that’s a way.

Seems like a terrible waste when for one of those elixirs Karlach will out-damage them all.

I beat Honour Mode that way. Death by a thousand little guys.


If the dryad's entanglement connects it really helps the rest, so always let her go first if she's in the current initiative block. Same with ravens and I guess winged ghouls (ghouls hardly ever land their status though).
Upcast Aid + Hero's Feast become a rolling ball of flesh.
In this playthrough Orin tried to 1v1 me and it was really funny.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


I love Gribbo and that one goblin who says “Nnnnorth”

I have never read a EULA for a game like that.

They seem to have all of the requisite language, and nothing I saw in the Section 5 stuff would change the agreement, but I have always wanted to draft contracts in plain language and gently caress that was funny.

That's unfortunate. I did the fight outside the grove and Lae'zel didn't get her Inspiration and I know my party killed at least five of the attackers.

When you try to be cute and wait until you kill Mystic Carrion to get the sporekeeper armor for free, but it isn't included in his loot. I just need to hit that save button more often so I don't have to go back quite so far, I guess.

The Nat 20 rule is in effect and if its an INT ability check they could give themselves advantage with something like Fox's Cunning or the Halfling Blood Potion

Oh duh, I forgot about that. So even “impossible” rolls have at least a 5% chance to succeed.

It took me like 3 playthroughs to notice the relatively significant buffs that accompany many of the gathered allies at the end of the game. There's some real good poo poo that I didn't notice because I just thought all you got were summons and didn't spend too much time inspecting my buffs because I always had a ton on anyway.
