So 7d8 is 8d6, which rises to 12d6, which finally rises to 16d6. Greater vital strike is 64d6, which deals 384 with Furious Finish. That means you only need a +1 Str mod to one shot a Balor through its DR, supposing you are not using Magic Fang or similar stuff.
True. Did overlook the fact that one size increase is two steps not one. So the Balor is still toast. Thanks for clearing that up.

You already convinced me about many things. I simply value 9th level spells higher than you. If you would make me choose between one slamming every encounter in the bestiary and 9th levels spells, I'd choose 9th level spells. Agreed to disagree I guess. Props for the build too, it is well done.
