So I'm familiar with DOS: EE and the element mechanics of combat, but I'm not sure if that applies to DnD 5e.

But last night I threw a fireball cantrip at a group of goblins standing in grease, and what do you know but the whole gang go up in flames!

Does anyone know of other great spell or skill combinations you can use, especially to deal with groups?

Also what are your go-to combat setups?

I'm currently running a Druid, Cleric, Warlock, Fighter so if you can think of combinations from those classes that would be great too.

I’m still in Act 1 but I’ve found that Sanctuary is amazing compared to its regular 5E counterpart. I’ll have Shadowheart use Warding Bond on my paladin, Bless the whole party besides herself, and protect herself with Sanctuary. Powerful early on, there may be better things you can do later.

Sanctuary has had a pretty big buff from the Table Top, from "Wis Save to Attack Target" to "Can't Attack Target". It's so good in fact it has a permanent preperation slot on Shadowheart alongside Command, Guiding Bolt, and Healing Word.
