My table had a minmaxer who made the game about the least fun it could be for everyone except him. The only thing that could probably beat his AC was a natural 20. He was the worst player I have ever had to play with in my entire life. He’s worse as a DM because he makes all the enemies like that. Every enemy was a fully crafted DMPC that he delighted in making so overpowered that we could only run. He’d ask questions like “does a 34 hit?” Because enemies would be so high level they would usually be about level 15 and would suspiciously roll a lot of 18s and 19s. There were enemies with attacks that did 20d12 damage with no negatives, just a homebrew innate ability to do this to a group of level 6 players. Needless to say, he’s not at the table anymore. To anyone who has to deal with this type of person at the d&d table, get together with the other players and just kick the asshole out

Now I DM and been running games trying to avoid combat cause I like the clicky clack of the plastic rocks and throw hard encounters at them. Mainly cause I want them to be challenged and to not thing combat should be a go-to but still, hard to balance things for myself.

But would all the wizard's remaining spell slots actually be enough to kill the iron golem using only magic missile? At the very end there, the 12th level wizard had used the following spell slots: 2 3rd level slots on fireball 1 3rd level slots on dispel magic Reflect's level is unknown, but probably at least level 3, as it's said to be "A little higher level than counterspell", which is level 3. The wizard is out of 3rd level slots at this point, so let's be generous and say he cast it at level 4. Then he cast Leomond's tiny hut, which is a 3rd level spell, but since he's out of those, let's assume he used a 4th level spell slot. That brings his remaining spell slot totals to: 1st level: 4 2nd level: 3 3rd level: 0 4th level: 1 5th level: 2 6th level:1 He also attempted to cast Time Stop, but since that's a 9th level spell, and 12th level wizards don't have 9th level spell slots, let's assume that went in a puff of smoke and all the remaining spell slots are spent on Magic Missile. Magic missile does 1d4+1 damage per dart, starting with 3 darts at 1st level, adding one dart for every higher level. A fully healed iron golem has an average of 210 hp. Plugging all those number into anydice shows that...... damnit he could indeed kill the iron golem if he spent all his remaining spell slots on magic missile.

I looked at that link and based on everything you put in, it wouldn't kill the Golem. I realize we're arguing over something incredibly stupid but you put in so much work (which I appreciate and did myself as well), and you didn't even say the right thing. The average you gave is 182. If he indeed did start from 210 he would not have killed the Golem. The average I got (without a roller, just taking the average of a D4 being 2), was 156, with a low of 104 and a max of 260. So it's possible he killed the Golem, but on average he wouldn't have.

Disclaimer: Time stop does not work this way. The spell would end after one magic missle.

[@andrewg9433]

Not to mention that Magic Missile is an action and even at sixth level(the highest spell slot for a level 12 wizard) it would only do 6d4+6 damage. So the maximum damage he could do in that round would be 30 damage, and that's assuming perfect rolls on each d4. It's not terrible damage by any means but it's likely this Iron Golem has pretty high HP given it seems buffed, so if this were played properly and by some miracle every d4 was a 4, it would only do 30 damage and then Iron Golem would just attack him. And possibly kill him.

I did some quick math. It's said earlier that the Wizard is 12th level, so if he used up all of his spell slots, he would do *95d4+95 force damage*, with a maximum of 475 damage total. BUT! Given the fact that he was able to cast Time Stop, that must mean he is ACTUALLY at least 17th level. (But lets just assume he's 20th lvl, seeing as he IS BigDickWizard6969...) Not mention that the Wizard already used up a few spell slots casting two Fireballs, one Dispel Magic, one Leomund's Tiny Hut, and one instance of the homebrew spell Reflect, which must be of at least 4th level inferring from the dialogue about it in 'FIREBALL 3: Return of the King'. However, at 20th level, wizards only get three 3rd level spell slots. Meaning either one Fireball, or the Dispel Magic, was cast at 4th level. Taking into account all of the used spell slots, at 20th level the damage output becomes, in a strange and ironic turn of events, still *95d4+95 force damage*, with a maximum of 475 damage total, an average of 285 damage total, and a minimum of 190 damage total. IN CONCLUSION! There was approximately a 6.372e-58% or 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000006372% chance of NOT killing the Iron Golem. Well played, good sir.
