So I'm familiar with DOS: EE and the element mechanics of combat, but I'm not sure if that applies to DnD 5e.

But last night I threw a fireball cantrip at a group of goblins standing in grease, and what do you know but the whole gang go up in flames!

Does anyone know of other great spell or skill combinations you can use, especially to deal with groups?

Also what are your go-to combat setups?

I'm currently running a Druid, Cleric, Warlock, Fighter so if you can think of combinations from those classes that would be great too.

Push + Chasm.

Enemies know about it, too. 🤕

I did this in one of the first boss fights while rescuing the Druid in early game. I pushed an underling off a ledge into the Giant Spider pit which kited them into the battle and drew the bosses agro allowing me time to finish off most of the underlings before focus firing.

That was a fun fight.

But, but ... the loot.

100%, but a 60 health, 30 gold value underling failing a save for the cost of a bonus action can save me a lot of headache!

Hah yes, this is one thing I've been enjoying a lot with my Warlock and Eldritch Blast, I love the multi level fighting in this, I hear Solasta is good for it too
