You already know what I'm doing; making the longest range possible using a cantrip in dnd. (Please don't use this on your DM they will cry)
To start off, we have Greg here. Greg is a level twenty variant human aberrant sorcerer. They have the cantrip 'finger guns' from Valda’s Spire of Secrets: Player Pack. They have the finger guns cantrip, the spell sniper and sharpshooter feat, and the quickened and extended spell metamagics. Greg can shoot from 1200 ft, away (2400 ft, if we are using are metamagic), and the weapon's duration can be extended to 24 hours. This is using only a cantrip and they racial and class features.
Valda's really is a big mess of nonsense, isn't it?

Active characters:
Carric Aquissar, elven wannabe artist in his deconstructionist period (Archfey warlock) Lan Kidogo, mapach archaeologist and treasure hunter (Knowledge cleric) Mardan Ferres, elven private investigator obsessed with that one unsolved murder (Assassin rogue) Xhekhetiel, halfling survivor of a Betrayer Gods cult (Runechild sorcerer/fighter)
The real question is order of operations. Does distant spell double the other bonuses too? If so then a land druid/sorc multiclass could have a fire bolt with a range of 960ft in 2024 rules. The Eldritch blast would be at most 1440ft with 18 warlock/2 sorc.
Have you ever tried using Greg in a real campaign? I’m curious how using Greg in a real game would change the combat situations, the environment, or the DM’s reactions – are there any limitations in terms of rules interpretation?

No, I haven't used Greg. Any DM I know would cry.
And depends what you mean on rules interpretation.

On each of your suggestions, we will add a future version of Greg, but more powerful.

And so the Greg reign begins!

Henlo, I am a pan, NB, chaotic ADHD mess of a furry.
I am also a eepy eeper, who likes WoF, WC, and fire.
I'm not sure what the base range of 'Finger Guns' is, but a level 2 warlock can get an Eldritch Blast range of 300 feet (Eldritch Spear invocation)
I know what you're thinking: "In that flurry of blows, did he use all his ki points, or save one?" Well, are ya feeling lucky, punk?
The Spell Sniper feat doesn't work on Finger Guns because it doesn't have a range of at least 10 feet, it has a Range of Self.
Eldritch Blast 120 feet + Distant Spell (x2) + Spell Sniper (+60) + Eldritch Spear (+30/level)
Starry Wisp 60 feet + Distant Spell (x2) + Spell Sniper (+60) + Improved Elemental Fury (+300)

The circle of the land with the arid spell list gets fire bolt so you could do use that instead of starry wisp.
Fire bolt 120 feet + spell sniper(+60) + improved elemental fury(+300) + distant spell(x2)

I'd say Distant Spell double the spell’s range originally.
