Ragnarok, I won't answer too much because you're always 100% out of topic.
"A coté de la plaque" in french. I don't know how to say it in EN but "out of topic" seems to be ok.
You should really try to make your "imagination" work a bit. There's not 36 solutions to create harder level of difficulty.
Not using the games mechanic to artificially increase the game's difficulty is a stupid reasoning that only rely on this specific EA build and/or this difficulty level. It's like saying "you can play any game in story mode without casting any spells : you should try if you think that every spells are too powerfull". That's ridiculous.
But thank you to care about my experience, I have made the game more challenging. I have solo'd it with 3 differents classes and that's what makes me understand that most things but homebrew in BG3 are completely "cosmetic".
And no, I never said that he shouldn't be able to roleplay his characters as he wants.
1. Changing the rules of advantages for highground to a +2 won't change the fact that going higher will increase his % to hit. He will even be able to increase it even more.
2. Changing the rules so shoving is a bit harder won't change the fact that he'll still be able to shove and/or create a specific character that can shove better than others.
3. Changing the disengage so it suits to RAW won't make disengage impossible and he'll still be able to disengage :
-as a bonus action with his rogue
-as a bonus action using misty step (most casters and magic oriented subclasses)
-as an action with his sorcerer that will then use quickened spell to throw his fireball as a bonus action
-as an action then heal with his cleric as a bonus action
-with his druid raven form then do something else in human form
-as a bonus action if he choose the dedicated feats (not in the game, but it could be a homebrew)
-as an action with his dual wielder that could have attacked first with his bonus action
-for free with a risk of damages from AOO(s)
-and so on... you know, that kind of stuff.
DnD only contains "choices". Not "good" or "bad" choices. There are a few suboptimal things and a few OP things according to what I read, but everyone seems to agree that the balance is pretty good.
Of course it doesn't mean that players cannot make bad or good tactical choices but here we're not talking about the rules, we're talking about specific actions in specific situations.
