If you thought TOTK let you do whatever you wanted to destroy monsters, wait till you see what BG3 offers. 😃

I grab every explosive barrel I find out of combat to help when I get into combat. Little powder keg, a little fireball, poof. No more bad guys.

I fell in (more) love when I realized I could grab a goblin and attack another with it...but there was just the one goblin. So I attacked the ground. Gobbo took bludgeoning and fire damage because the ground was on fire.

I've seen water can douse fire, and electricity synergizes with it; however with all the dark and undead, I was wondering if I might bless water and make it holy. The bless spell is only targetable on creatures, so that ain't it 🤷🏻‍♂️

Also, it can be hard to see with the camera being so finicky but chandeliers and other hanging objects can be attacked to make them fall, causing massive damage or even opening holes in the ground.

If I wasn't so deep in my playthrough, I would start over as a monk and just Jackie Chan my way through combat.
