    So if we calculate them with a greatsword, that would mean they do 36xd6+90 damage or 216 damage on average.

    Or less than a lvl3 Fireball that hits 8 creatures, lol.

      And if you can hit 8 creatures with a single fireball, then everyone involved is getting exactly what they deserve.

      Now see what a wizard has to do to do all that to a single target.

        Katherine’s Unfailing Missiles.

        Level 9 spell. [Wiz]

        Components: S,V

        Casting time: Instantaneous

        Range: Medium (up to 200’)

        This spell functions as Magic Missile, but the caster gets 3 “lances” they can cast at a single target or up to 3 targets in a 30° cone. There is no saving throw. If the target is visible to the caster they are hit. Each lance does 17d6+1 points of damage evenly divided between Force damage, and Sonic Damage. (This will hit anything with at least half damage, as it’s basically impossible to be immune to both at the same time)

        This is the first 9th level spell that I created

      The fiend in front of you doesn’t care at all about the 30 manes you killed with your fireball, and it’ll now eat your wizard.

      You forget savage attacker which rolls twice and picks the highest roll for each attack. All fighters pick savage attacker.

      Edit: Oh nevermind I looked it up and it looks like I completed Baldur’s Gate 3 as a fighter and never realized that feat only does that once per turn lol

      That’s assuming all attacks hit. Typically you’ll hit 65% of attacks against level-appropriate monsters, but you also have to factor the 5% crit chance. So the average damage is 153. Which has a good chance of killing any single target unless it’s a boss.
