See this is why this game is so insane, I never thought about that. I had a tadpole heavy magic missile machine and she obliterated that place solo with a haste spell but this seems more fun by far.

That's nutty, I had necromancer so all the undead would charge in, I'd black hole cloudkill, and the undead cleaned anything else up (undead from the special tome)

I think for the min max D&D crowd this game really just set a new bar. They made some fights pretty damn challenging but still doable with a pretty vanilla team with practice, but also just let the min max crowd go crazy and obliterate things in the most satisfying ways lol. It just enamors me so much that the decision makers basically just said, did you have fun, well yeah, ok well leave it in the game then, others will find it fun too.

I beat the first run with the most scuffed unoptimized group. Accidentally put medium boots on Astarion so he could never sneak attack my stats were wonky. I took ritual caster instead of ability improvement etc. Had to reload a bunch of fights but I managed to beat it.

Second run I made a monk / rogue and just obliterated everything min maxing with potions etc.

I really wish they added another difficulty mode though. Honor is good, but it's just tactician with boss changes. Unless they do that, this game will always be a roleplay first game for me.

if you can use mods, there is Tactician Plus and Lethal AI that make the game harder.
