The only way for Minsc to not suck ass is if he's depressed, jaded and somehow murder ate his hamster.

Your wish may partly come true. Minsc is slowly learning - the hard way - that sometimes you just lose. And he was taking it very badly. Until he lost his memories.

And here's proof Minsc isn't gay.

By the way - the Forgotten Realms Wiki is still full of errors when it comes to basic articles. The fuckers claim that only two Bhaalspawn survived the Crisis. Which is a load of shit since, at minimum, Imoen was also amongst the survivors.

I just think Minsc should be entirely above it all(re:sexualization and whatever charm she's using therein) unless it's his witch he's protecting.
Not everything needs to be sexualized, getting kinda tired of it. Charm being completely ineffective on Minsc, especially in the face of evil, is entirely within his character IMO.

I genuinely think Minsc should be below it all.

Who cares if Minsc's straight, bi, or gay? If these concepts exist in Fearun at all. Making him immune to sexual wiles is a good idea.

He is immune. He stabs her into the floor with his massive, massive sword a few pages later. An experience which leaves her dead.

Used to be a thing in the third edition, different weapons had different crit ranges. In 5E the only way to increase this range is, to my knowledge, the Champion archetype for the Fighter (which is unfortunately the most mechanically boring one)
"Put more plain fighter in your plain fighter!"
The Champion is designed as a class to give your 11 year old cousin when she insists on playing D&D with you.

Btw, does Minsc having a statue as the "beloved ranger" mean he's canonically a part of the Bhaalspawn's party? Are the other "canon" members still canon?

I don't like being imposed a canon.

I'll say it once again, and never again.

THE FUCKING NOVELS ARE NOT CANON. THE GAMES ARE. THIS IS OFFICIAL.
Abdel Adrian is simply the canon name of CHARNAME. The only other canon facts are his race (human), gender (male) and alignment (Neutral). That's it.

As to party members who are explicitly mentioned as such in canon, non game sources. Here goes:
- Imoen,
- Khalid and Jaheira,
- Minsc and Dynaheir,
- Faldorn,
- Coran,
- Kagain,
- Xan,
- Faldorn,
- Edwin,
- Neera (yes, from the EE),
- Kivan,
- Viconia,
