So. Ladies and Gentlemen. I believe it is time to admit defeat. It is clear that Larian is moving FURTHER away from D&D 5e rules and stats, preferring to create more superhero gameplay mechanics like chucking 9 pound cats across a span of 1,000 feet so it can land in shadows in a spider lair and then easily use stealth to avoid phase spiders - and this is called clever gameplay and master strategy.
It is therefore clear. We will not likely receive a true D&D 5e experience here, nor shall it be likely even close. After a year and a half of fighting stupidly for this, Larian has made it clear by slapping us in the face with even MORE ridiculous mechanics that completely disregard D&D and the world of Faerun.
This said, I will likely no longer post to this thread. Game over. Flag waved. The memes win.
From this point on, just gonna try to enjoy the game as best I can. My dream for a better BG3 has ended. What hurts most is that it was killed by the Barbarian class... The one class I've been wanting from the beginning.
