Well, what's the "intended" way to kill pink bean anyways? Making animations for the hawk statues' attacks seems totally pointless when the only real thing that matters is damage reflect and seduce. The fight as a whole is pretty horribly designed. Exploiting monster behavior is the only real away to prevent the hawk statues from taking out the entire group. It really doesn't make sense for the statues to just sit there when nobody's in range of its attacks while stars and arrows are hitting it from the back. While killing pink bean is technically possible right now without the pyramid glitch, it's extremely unrealistic. When using the glitch is the only real way to kill pink bean, it should be fine so long as the run isn't passed off as a non-glitched run. Also, keep in mind that it's not like PB becomes easy to kill with the glitch, you still have to stay alive because wheeling removes the glitched buff.
The buff is actually multiplicative. I think it excepts shadow partner due to the fact that shadow partner mimics the night lord's damage. Instead of 50% of regular damage, it does 250% of regular damage (that makes 1250% of nonglitched damage). That makes the stars do 1250%*3 + 500%*3 instead of 50%*3 + 100%*3, so triple throw essentially gets a 11.67x damage boost, disregarding the damage cap.
