I was thinking about crazy optimizations today and I’m surprised we don’t hear more people talk about this combo. A cleric that can cast lvl 3 spells can concentrate on spirit guardians and wild shape, and by becoming a large creature you can create a 40 ft field of fast moving justice taking the dodge action - that include spider forms, which allows ceiling walking to create the disco ball of death moving around a room out of melee reach.
I’m surprised I’ve never seen this build being abused.
You're making me hate that this isn't possible in BG3. I abuse the ever loving fuck out of Guardian Spirits in that game as it is. My party of 4 clerics kill their enemies by just walking around. lol
I always go for a druid-type in games (I have a druid of the coast in a 5e game and now a moon druid in BG3) and I too am frustrated that I can't really do spells while Bear. But it's okay, because I am Bear.
