    There's anyone and then there's anyone.
    He never sleeps. He never dies.

    Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.

    Nor me, in truth.
    But I'll do this much. This is no natural body of mine anyway. An existence as ... a mind. A seat of learning, of knowledge, of thought.
    Yes.
    This I can do."

    I considered that, but it'd be pretty bad for me as if it failed

    Luckily, Zurvan sold his soul to the demon so I didn't have to risk myself unnecessarily

    Also since the door was still opened I assumed it could just come back through the doorway once banished

    I should probably put it on record that I didn't think Banishment would work, but when I considered punching the devil normally, d20+8 (or +3 if sharpshooter) vs AC18 wasn't looking very good.
    If I tried one normal shot with eldritch smite + one shot with sharpshooter, the expected damage would be 32 (1d8+5+5d8) + 19.5 (1d8+15), so even if I did my very best to hurt the devil, I could only hope to do something like 50 damage in one turn. Which is basically garbage compared to Pai's very heroic Gaem dishing out huge numbers. Or 60, if I did the stupid thing and used sharpshooter for both shots, though it probably won't hit then.
    Using a Lv4 slot for a small chance to get rid of the devil permanently seemed like a better bet than using a Lv4 slot to do pitiful damage.

    Oh absolutely, and I applaud you for giving it a shot. If you'd already gotten into a situation where you had to fight it's definitely the best option.

    In my case, we were trying to avoid a combat, and trying to banish the demon would have definitely made up fight it if it failed. With how scared my group was, I decided not to try it. I'm really glad someone pulled it off though.

    It really shouldn't have failed, with how high its bonus was. But, well...
