I’m about to start using a Fighter whose whole thing is shield bashing to shove enemies around and I expect it to be bad in most encounters.
I played a Ranger with Booming Blade and most of the time I didn’t use it, but when I did it was very satisfying.
I just change the file extension to PNG and call it a day. Somehow it fixes all my compatibility issues.
