At this point it's a turkey-shoot; just keep hitting Grym, having a character on the left side put a shot into the lava lever whenever the lava clears, and always having the characters on the Right side move last. It may take a little while, but you will be able to drop Grym without getting wounded and without needing to use the forge hammer, which is needed for obtaining an Achievement (listed below). | At this point it's a turkey-shoot; just keep hitting Grym, having a character on the left side put a shot into the lava lever whenever the lava clears, and always having the characters on the Right side move last.

[[File:BG3 GrymSquish1.png|alt=Screenshot of an enlarged wild shape Owlbear aiming its Crushing Flight directly at the location Grym stands when it spawns.|thumb|This is where I used Crushing Flight from, and where I targeted - right where Grym spawns.]] | |||
=== Owlbear from the top ropes! tactic === | |||
It is entirely possible to defeat Grym in a single hit. In order to do so, you will need: | |||
* A level 6 [[Druid]] in [[Wild Shape: Owlbear]] | |||
* A spellcaster who can [[Enlarge]] the Druid, or an [[Elixir of the Colossus]] drunk by the Druid | |||
By having the Druid remain at the bottom of the stairs, rather than jumping down onto the platform, they will have a large vertical distance from the lowered platform when Grym spawns. You can then use [[Crushing Flight]] on Grym, negating any fall damage you take while dealing massive damage, due to your large weight and falling distance. | |||
Paired with Grym's vulnerability to bludgeoning damage while Superheated, the crushing damage should defeat him instantly, even on Tactician and Honour mode difficulties. | |||
