D&D 5E 20th level Sorcerer vs the world

[Hohige]

Can we do it without Simulacrum cheese?

Otherwise my build is a Vuman War Wizard (Alert, Metamagic Adept [Subtle spell], Elemental Adept, Int 20, Dex 16, Lucky) with infinite Simulacrums he's wished in himself (plus a few he just created normally, meaning - unlike your Simulacrums - they retain their 9th level spell slot)

He also has at least one Demiplane holding glyphs of warding containing every single concentration spell in the game (all also either cast by the Simulacrums, or wished in by the Simulacrums who retained their 9th level slots, triggering burnout if necessary), and he has just danced around triggering all of them before emerging to challenge your Sorcerer (meaning he's currently buffed with every single concentration buff spell in the game).

He orders one of his Simulacrum to Plane shift him in wherever you are as close as I need to be triggering combat.

He has +13 to initiative, with advantage on the Dex check due to one of his buffs, and an extra 1d4 from another one, and a Lucky re-roll... so we can safely he goes first (as do his infinite Simularums, should he bring them along). Foresight and Alert render him impossible to be surprised either.

I havent bothered to calculate his stats, because every single buff spell in the game is a lot of buff spells.

Among other things, he's immune to hit point damage (invulnerability), and spells of 8th level or lower (Globe of invulnerability), invisible, mind blanked, mirror imaged, mage armored, hasted, blessed, spirt guardian flitting about etc etc etc

Do his infinite simulacra also come with him?

HAhaha, OMG. Thank you very much. The Sorcerer's Twinned Simulacrum, infinite. I didn't know if you noticed, but the Sorcerer can do it. Glyph of Warding is a cleric spell (divine soul also gets it) The sorcerer now has access to any magic he didn't have and has infinite twinned and with metamagic. All Simulacrum with Wish Spell. Your Theory Crafting is really boring
You give the Sorcerer a Simulacrum-Cheese with Twinned and Metamagic.

Actually he somehow left his fortress once, at least. At some point in the past he twin cast simulacrum on him and a drow matron mother, so we must assume that he befriended a drow matron mother enough for her to stay still for 12 hours while he cast his magic.

He only ever casts Simulacrum through Wish, so the casting time becomes 1 action. Still, lets hope she was into it because simulacruming someone without their consent is pretty icky. Not that it much matters because he burns through his own simulacrum's spells every couple days, and so the Matron Mother Simulacrum would disappear as soon as he had to cast the spell again.

Well, that doesn't seem to be real. The Sorcerer, can rest freely. Just rest on top of the Pegasus.
With Mind Blank, He is hidden from Divination Spells.

Now this guy has to sleep on Pegasusback, and wait around a big chunk of the day for his Pegasus to rest. His life just keeps getting worse.

Mind Blank would work, if he didn't already use up his Wish most days on every other thing he does and if he didn't go everywhere with a Simulacrum who can't cast that.

"DM, help me! Can I pweas rest on top of a Pegasus?"

Since Mind Blank can't come from the DMM (not on his spell list), the Simulacrum (no Wish as the spell creating him used the 9th level spell slot already) or the HU-HAT (he's using his daily Wish to cast Private Sanctum as you stated in post #204 of this thread on the days he is not coming back from his demiplane), could you indicate who is casting Mind Blank exactly?

With the powerful drow body, He just trance.
He only returns to Demiplane in special cases.

Could you please detail which 8 creatures he takes back when he has taken a long rest in his demiplane?

Now, Summon Retriever knows where the Wizard is.
The Wizard is dead.

You didn't detail how the Retriever kills the wizard. It's only CR 14 and a Wizard as a good chance of killing him. And since you established in post #182 that litteral reading of the rule over the RAI was forbidden (henceforth called the no "DM, help" rule), there is only a single retriever summoned as simulacra can't restore transient resources, not only spell slots, as was confirmed by Jeremy Crawford to be the RAI. Could you please detail how you see the fight between the retriever and the wizard going in details? Even if the Retriever wins, out of bad rolls, and the wizard is dead, the wizard's clone gets activated which isn't very problematic.

The Sorcerer used him action to cast Wished Twinned Simulacrum. not 12 hours casting.

She still needed to be willing to be simulacred. Once she agrees to that, spending one action or 12h is just a matter of courtesy on her part. You brought allies in your 1x1 fight (established on post #1), so of course you'll expect the Wizard to call on ally as well during prep time, as obviously the 1x1 part only applies once the fight start.

Ahahah. Why not? Strange, but efficient.

Best comedy thread so far this year.

If you want to take over the world. Sleep anywhere, preferably out of the reach of enemies.


All of this after hunting the Wizard with Summon Retriever and killing him.

None of that actually addresses anything in my post.

I know English isnt your first language, and that you have pretty serious health issues, but can you please actually deal with my post?

"DM, help me! Can I pweas rest on top of a Pegasus?"

"A Short Rest is a period of downtime, at least 1 hour long, during which a character does nothing more strenuous than eating, drinking, reading, and tending to wounds." No horseback riding, no pegasus-riding, only eating, driking, reading and tending to wounds.

"A Long Rest is a period of extended downtime, at least 8 hours long, during which a character sleeps or performs light activity: reading, talking, eating, or standing watch for no more than 2 hours. If the rest is interrupted by a period of strenuous activity—at least 1 hour of walking, fighting casting spells or similar adventuring activity—the characters must begin the rest again to gain any benefit from it."

So by RAI, you can't rest on the back of your horse -- if you could, messengers on horse would ride 24h a day, just changing horses -- and by RAW you can't do anything more strenuous than reading, which definitely include being on horseback. So no, you can't. He could I guess try to make a makeshift raft carried by the pegasus so he can lie on it, but such an activity would immediately identify him as the HU-HAT "the only magen sleeping on the palanquin", defeating any attempt at discretion, so this is no longer an option for the sorcerer.

Create Magen (They can hover) / Simulacrum Hold them, Rest on top of Pegasus. Simulacrum holds him.
He just has to take no action while in a trance.
Why go back to the ground again?

I didn't know that people didn't sleep on airplanes.
