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.
Playing it like a Russian FSB agent: windows are your friend.
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?

Telekinesis. There is even a necklace or ring that has this spell on it. Edit: It:s gloves
