    what’s exceptionally fun is that not only is it the most amount of damage Brennan has ever seen, it’s also enough damage to kill almost every powerful 5e enemy. God bless Emily Axford, a chaotic icon

    2:22 For even more context on this, remember that in that 23 years of playing D&D Brennan is talking about most of it before Dimension 20 was probably in 3/3.5e, where numbers tend to be waaay bigger than in 5e, and builds tend to get way crazier. So not only is that the most damage Brennan has seen in a single attack, it's more damage than he ever saw in the prior edition known for broken nonsense.

    806. My personal record in 5e. It came from using a spell to make me become fire and blow up 3 full crates of dynamite which not only nearly wiped my own party, but also instantly took down the boss, the adds, and nearly the building. I survived on good CON saves (because a blast that big ain’t a Dex save), relentless endurance, and death ward. I came into that fight knowing I’d be doing this and I knew exactly what I was getting myself into. I was the atomic bomb, and I survived on death saves.

    I GM GURPS. Hit points in GURPS are on roughly the same scale as D&D. Very high damage attacks in GURPS are always 6d6 with a multiplier (because otherwise, you'd end up with buckets of dice for some things). I once was doing a set up for a later campaign that was going to involved Kaiju (which sadly never happened), and I let a player use a nuclear weapon.
    GURPS has rules for this. It was 6d6 x 30,000 concussion damage, with additional heat damage and radiation damage. I let him roll just because when do you ever get to roll damage for a nuke? He rolled 20, so that was six hundred thousand damage.
    So that was the most damage any player has ever done in a single attack in any campaign I ever ran.

    560 is the most damage a single attack Brennan has seen in 23 years? I’m not gonna act like 560 is nothing, But it’s not nearly as impossible in 3rd edition.

Once again, 500 damage is still huge, Just not as surprising to me as Brennan never seeing it before.
