If you need an 8 to hit at level 12 you will hit 95.7% of the time and crit 14.3% of the time.The damage if you a) get the GFB rider onto a 2nd foe and b) trigger Sentinel is quite high. You hit basically all the time so it's about as consistent as can be.If you're an elf, be an assassin and enjoy surprise crits of 87 damage on average.The typical damage breaks down like this:target 1: 38.9target 2: 11.8Sentinel: 29.0Total: 79.7I'm sure there are others that can do more but I plan on playing this in AL (all of level 3 now!) and hope that Elven Accuracy makes it to Xanathar's though I suspect the module will finished before I get to level 10 (Barb 2/Rogue 8) and can get both Sentinel and Elven Accuracy. However, I've got Gauntlets of Ogre Power and have a few other options from one more DM's Reward (I'll probably take the Rapier +1).If need be, you can always wield a whip and disengage and hide behind other front line melee to avoid getting easily attacked at advantage from your reckless attack while also making it easier to get a Sentinel attack in.It so happens this is at-will but if you can attack in melee every round and get each of GFB on a second target and Sentinel 50% of the time you'll do 1423 damage after 24 rounds. It's 1912 with 100% up-time. I assume at least some of those 6 combats you'd get a surprise attack crit in, but I'm not willing to guess what that possibility is.So... 1423 damage.</blockquote>
