Adjusting for accuracy, this means that the previously mentioned total damage is also lessened by -361 times (1 - 0.969) -11.191.

If you can generate some advantage for yourself, then you may do so.

Beyond just being able to hit things hard, they also are able to do so with uncanny accuracy.

This character goes patrolling for evil and predators in the woods, using his Primeval Awareness (L1 spell slot) to identify that there is evil in his land.

As he uses his hunting ability to stalk his prey, his high perception and natural stealth make it difficult for his quarry to hide and make himself similarly difficult if not nearly impossible to spot.

Hed use Pass Without a Trace, perhaps subtly, so that he could sneak up on his quarry.

As he draws near and identifies his target, he casts Longstrider from his Ranger spells using the Subtle Spell meta-magic just to give himself that extra boost in movement that hell need in order to close with his quarry before it realizes the danger.

He knows how long it will take him to get into striking range, and stealthily moves to within 50 feet of his target.

He has foreseen this days events, and knows that death awaits his enemy.

In terms of the sequence of events, I imagine it would look like this.

In the preparation round, cast Subtle Shadow Blade L5, from which the surprise round begins.

Portent determines the initiative order for the target and the attacker: Assassinating Critical: Action Surge Dueling Attacks Divine Smites Dread Ambusher Sneak Attack Bonus Action War Priest weapon attack with Divine Smite.

Since we take two Attack actions through Action Surge, we get extra 2d8 Psychic damage, which is doubled since theyre critical hits.

Sneak attack rules for rogues do not require you to use Dexterity when using Finesse weapons.

Since the attack is a critical hit, the damage gets doubled.

Psychic.

As a 10th level spellcaster, after casting Shadow Blade at level 5, we can use 3 L4 spell slots, 1 L5 spell slot, and 3 L3 spell slots.

All of this, of course, gets doubled on critical hits, which these will be.

This results in the following additional damage: 2 times (3 times 5d8 1 times 5d8 3 times 4d8) 64d8 Radiant damage.

By having access to Portent, we will have two dice rolls which can be used for any ability check, which includes initiative.

Because the quarry has a 0 to their initiative and our character has a 2 to initiative, regardless of what we roll, we can substitute the lower of the two Portent rolls to the target and use the higher of the two rolls for ourselves.

This can be used on 4 attacks, resulting in 15.5 to attack rolls, since we have 4 superiority dice from the Battle Master.

As a result, for 1 attack we need to roll 4 or higher through advantage to score a hit, and for 4 of the other 5 attacks we need to roll 4.5 or higher through advantage in order to score a hit.

The Bonus Action attack will use the L5 spell slot, the first three attacks of the first Attack action will each use an L4 spell slot, and the three attacks of the second Attack action will each use an L3 spell slot.

On the referenced table, we see that for this we have a 97.8 likelihood.

The damage for this attack will be (2 times 4d8 1d8 7) Psychic damage and (2 times 5d8) Radiant 9d8 7 Psychic 10d8 Radiant 47.5 Psychic 45 Radiant 92.5 damage.

Adjusted for accuracy, this means that the damage total is lessened by -(1-0.978) times 92.5 -2.035.

The damage of these 4 attacks of the two Attack actions is: 4 times 1d8 2 times 4 times 4d8 2 times 1d8 4 times 7 Psychic 2 times (4d8 4d8 5d8 5d8) Radiant (38d8 28) Psychic (36d8 Radiant) 199 Psychic 162 Radiant 361 total damage.
