This article is hilarious because like the author I didn't know what I was doing and chose bard as my first character (still don't know what I'm doing but I'm trying) and would do a lot of the same tricks he did. Pushing people off a ledge was my go to.

Launching Duergar into lava was weirdly satisfying.

When I tried to huck them into the river (specifically the invisible fucker near the boat in the shoreline encounter) and it wouldn't let me? You're gawdamned right, I was ready to be pissed if I couldn't do likewise into the lava. Instead? Karlach tossed every dwarf she should reach... and they actually recorded audio for lava-induced death. 🥹 (At least the actor did for the main dwarf dude, IIRC)

I feel like the careful design of encounters went out the window with Act 3. Twice this week I tried to use Telekinesis to throw someone and couldn't because low railings were in the way. I'm also getting a ton more red lines when shoving people.
