Being a D&D campaign, Heroes and Halfwits is prone to having some astounding moments.

    In General 
  • Albus' backstory can easily be classified as this. He's not actually a half elf. He's actually a cosmic being as old as time itself that was split into two beings: Albus, and his ferret.
    Episode 14 
  • Bo Jingles (Geoff) manages to get behind enemy Drow in a stealthy pincer attack and uses 'Dissonant Whispers' to cause an enemy Drow to run into four allies, which causes them to take four consecutive Attacks of Opportunity, leading to the Drow's death.
    Episode 16 
  • After Sanji betrays the group, she kidnaps Bo Jingles, brings him to a secluded cave, ties him up, and prepares to kill him. Bo Jingles manages to not only drive his kidnapper away, he was also able to escape his bindings and return to the group unscathed. Keep in mind, Bo Jingles was tied up, and had no help from any of his teammates.

    Episode 22 
  • Albus somehow managed to steal a diamond worth 1,000 GP from the dwarf in the underdark without anyone noticing.
  • Bor prevents an enemy from fleeing to get reinforcements by casting Compelled Duel, which made him have to fight. As the enemy was at 1 HP, it's safe to say he didn't live much longer.

    Episode 23 
  • Na kicking a dragon in the head and knocking it off it's feet.

    Episode 25 
  • Cork demonstrating the power of Shiva Fire by making two cultists explode.
  • Michael/Mogar through a combination of two spells and a sword attack manages to deal 41 damage to a Wight killing it in the process.
    Episode 26 
  • The team concoct a plan that catches a Wraith by surprise. It was described as being several times stronger the the Wight the team fought last episode, but it's was slain before it could attack anyone leaving the party completely unscathed.
    Episode 27 
  • The party spends the better part of the episode slowly grinding down a pair of barbed devils who are extremely resilient to damage. Albus distracts one with a phantasmal image of an angel while the party grinds down the other. Albus then gets the idea of creating the image of a creature clawing the devil's leg and convinces it to attack itself.
    Episode 33 
  • Michael manages to top himself in terms of damage compared to episode 25, doing a whopping 50 damage to the recently-returned Sanji. Frank's description has his target being literally vivisected.

    Episode 34 
  • Taking down the campaign boss with no friendly casualties. Sure, Geoff's character was killed. But Bo Jingles was dead long before the final battle.
  • Not to mention, Mogar, who had been nearly killed several times over the course of the battle, was the one to land the final blow. What's more, he told The Rajah he was going to cut him up. And he did. By chopping off his legs and then having him fall on top of his blade decapitating him.

    Episode 35 
  • Akshay delivering an execution-style takedown to a devil, shooting it point-blank in the head with a crossbow.
  • The group as a whole has taken a level in badass, easily handling a group of devils that would have been serious trouble before.
  • Mogar in particular continues his high-damage feats, dealing 68 damage to a Devil. Perhaps even more notably, this was purely melee damage; he did it without using any spells.
