    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Short Circuit Too! holding out for a hero! Nice! Haha seeing all that electricity in the air really made me want to plug in again and amplify a bit more. We managed to work our way through the crowds at the Goblin camp, and I don't even know how many drum circles inside, before we finally...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Had to dive back in immediately after that. Sometimes the best way to work through a heavy spell is to unleash at week's end. Ever since she crossed over to the other side and returned, Glaive has been getting back into occult mysticism. Rereading old scrolls and old journals. From the deepest...

    That would be badass! Doubtless! The full loom treatment!!! heheh Ok well we weren't really going to get into it, but it's important I think for the fans to understand what all went down at that last stop. I mean Lae'zel, she's been with us from the start right. We'll always have a lot of...

    Wow! Talk about Ride the Lightning!!! Raspberry Bulette, just shredding hehe. That's some inspiration right there! We caught up with Ethel to see what was on spinal tap for the quick ups, strength potions mostly. I think we'll need a few for the heavy lifting. Usually I would try to save...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    After their breakout single "Tadpoles" briefly topped the charts at the Emerald Grove, Glaive decided to branch out and really dig deep to start working on that multi-slate tour de force she'd been dreaming on. Ever since she got caught up during the Illithid Invasion and the summer of Unlove...

    This is Glaive, of Glaive and the Paladins lol She's out to form a new band and go extra glam! I can't say I've heard all good things about the subclass, but the fact that we got a Potion of Mind Reading in the chest on the Nautiloid set the tone. One pill makes us smaller, something along...

    I'm anticipating hitting Act III and fumbling like usual lol Now I am looking through our collective inventory and wondering if anything that I'm not currently wearing is actually worth hanging onto? For example, have I ever used that one Amulet we got from the sentient Mushrooms? hehe I know...

    "This... is my BOOMSTICK!" Good old Necronomicon! I mean what could go wrong with that thing just chilling in your backpack? heheh Nansi would probably know which dewy decimal to file that one under! Yeah the Elixir of vigilance is like the best 25 gp I ever spent hands down! :) I just...

    Did you know? (Baldur's Gate 3 edition)

    Throwing is pretty intense. Some quick ideas there... Gravity damage. If the thing that ends up killing the enemy is gravity, this will sometimes fail to award Xp. This is different than say yeeting the enemy into a chasm or a deadly surface or AoE spell, I mean when they just smack into the...

    Haha! Thanks :) Oh wow! So there are vases with things in them after all!!!? My inner loot goblin just grinned the widest grin Look at Shovel Go! Somehow I gotta get them back in the fold. Those fear barks are the best! Shovel's running commentary strikes straight to the heart! Those Gobs are...

    After one more death to make sure we really knew what we were doing I tried again for the perfect plan to take our second lvl in Wizard sooner rather than later. The inspiration came that scroll of Expeditious retreat we found. But then we also got lucky with the Haste potion drop too, so that...

    The Scarlet S'witch, hitting the books and taking us all back to school. For the no rest hurry-up plan, she's been teaching Red Eye'd Din how to Hexendance in the latest episode of "Repeats and Re-Runs" Although we have died and been reawakened many times, we took the opportunity to develop a...

    Conquered the Conquerors is so satisfying! Nothing feels better than Dirtnapping those Githyanki guys with the crossbows! Love it! :) I was stuck away from my computer for a few days bouncing around. Managed to get Double Dragons at the ready for the Ketheric right, just in case I mess it up...

    Did you know? (Baldur's Gate 3 edition)

    I was just watching Dungeoncraft and the 6-13 hard and fast rule sorta strikes again! hehe Sorta random stuff related to pickpockets or messing with merchants or non-hostile NPCs... If you cast Hold person and it lands, you will have no attitude malus if you steal from that NPC or do a non...

    bought it

    I had a pretty similar impression to O_Bruce, like definitely during the Early Access period, but even after launch I'd still have many gripes. For me the main issue was down to frustration with party controls and movement, the group/ungroup stuff, or with character selection one by one. I...

    That was a clutch shot by Henry to nail the second spiderweb bridge with the fire arrow! Poisoned and everything, dude's got grit! Gravity damage from the top rope! Nice! Somehow I always seem to get caught sneaking around in there. Like instead of a clean burst vs the big bad to open, I'd be...

    Lookin' sharp! Oh I'll pick up the forks for sure hehe. Everything in the Dank Crypt that isn't nailed to the floor, definitely! At the start I will horde all the cutlery, but I don't think I've ever seen anything in a Vase. To me it just feels like a cruel joke, or maybe someone botched it...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    I keep finding new things every time too. Like I have been playing for a couple thousand hours and every single run I find some hidden item or mini area, or I'll fall into some secret conversation or encounter I didn't realize could go a completely different way. One thing they did do a pretty...

    Terminex'd the Drider! That was about as clean a fight as I'd ever fought right there hehe I started like I always do, by raising Xeph from the dead with Selune's blessing, to fight one more time as a Skeleton archer. We held back and waited for him to kill that one Goblin then launched...

    Yeah I really would like to check out the latest for mods. For me it's always a struggle to find the right matching hues on the dyes. I switched up our safety colors, cause I went after Grym this time and I like Lae'zel in Orange with that dye. She looks like the one Samurai flick, but then...
