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.
And like this, you CAN loot the corpses :p
Repelling eldritch blast, push, throw people, pushing unarmed attacks, pushing superiority attacks, pushing flourishes, repelling arrows... I love my toys.
This mirrors tabletop D&D, which amounts to how much bullshit can we get away with.
Telekinesis. There is even a necklace or ring that has this spell on it. Edit: It:s gloves
Yeah, I've been using it, it's great.
Yeet
I was kinda sad that using Telekinesis to drop a >!Steel Watcher on top of a Gondian!< didn't do more damage.
Weird to claim larian never meant you to play in a manner they specifically gave you the ability to do.
It’s not a serious claim. It’s a funny article about how the author pushes people off cliffs instead of fighting enemies with swords and magic.
I learned from Dark Souls that the only thing nobody can defeat is gravity. Larian must be fans.
I literally could not beat Viconia. Literally. Could. Not. I tried like 15 times, all different spells, arrangements, tactics, strategies, preparations, party members. Whatever. So I talked to her with a split party and send karlach to dispatch her during conversation in 3 hits. So I cheated. Whatever. Sue me!! I beat all the other bosses fair and square!!!!!
