    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    That's a good looking hound right there!!! Henry is back! Excellent dye jobs too hehe. Love it! Lol yeah Brain surgery with STR feels pretty medieval, guided by divine might at the Knick. Hopefully will pan out later on in Act II though for ya! Us is pretty gross, but they get a nice little...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Yeah Honour Mode is kinda baffling to me. I treat BG3 basically like an arcade game now, but then the way the camp is set up with Withers, it's basically like they gave us a quarter with a string, or where I'm lifting the pinball machine or something. Sorta undermines whatever else is going on...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Yeah I think just getting the Flaming Sword is a win in itself, and cause Karlach looks pretty boss wielding it! I think she's the only one who can pull off having a flaming weapon on the back and have it not look just completely absurd hehe. Lae'zel hits slightly harder with it by like 1 dmg...

    Cyan Eye'd Din is back in the running! I just replicated my quadruple kill on the Nautiloid, Flayer Zhalk and the Devils using a Haste potion and Melth's multiple mage hand method. Shadowheart prayed hard for the Mind Flayer to stun, and Shar must have heard her, cause he did! Didn't get a...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Hehe right on! We'll get there eventually Sometimes we roll hot, sometimes not, but it's pretty difficult to reliably kill those devils in the prologue. This is the most damage I think I've ever done from setting up Nautiloid tank trap... I used all 4 explosive tanks on that one, 2 for the...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Defeated by Lathander's trap! Serves us right I suppose. We were merciless with the Mushrooms and the Druids, then torched the Creche with reckless abandon. Exploding barrels for Ch'rai, the whole nine. But I goofed the trap disarm into turn based mode and sent us all over the edge. Rookie...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    I've been inflicting so many wounds lol... Shadowheart just relentless with her death's hand high five. So far so good! We've been very methodical this out, threading the needle and then doubling back to do the extras. Kill all the mushrooms but one, that sort of thing. I hit most of my usual...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Yes!!! Finally!!! Din Din Din! We've got a winner hehe! Golden Eye Din finally killed Commander Zhalk, the pair of Cambions, and the Mind Flayer! Coming so clutch at the very last moment with his Dragonborn Breath attack! Damn, that felt pretty good I gotta say. Must have tried for it a...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    I think it's some combination of ruthless repetition and gluttony for punishment, since I've easily died like a thousand times in Act I. The second Cambion is for sure the most annoying though. I've never managed to knock him off! I think I could probably do it as another class by now, but for...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Ran a bunch of experiments trying to get to the Shadowlands as quickly as possible, using a more speedrunner Ditch Dashagin style approach. (Ditch Dashagin is my imaginary Halfling Rogue that I would have played if they'd given us some more compelling Halfling avatar's to work with in BG3 hehe)...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    "Those who are about to die solute you!" hehe I had a Gnome Champion at one point, General Maximus Barrelius. My head canon was that he was betrayed by the pretender Nautilus Pyro, and sent off to the mines to die. But then he comes back for the final kaboom in the ring after training with...

    Scratch! The best news hehe Yeah it's too bad about the Owlbears. I want all the Yoshis even the old timers! hehe Greybeard Greyfeather I have been trying to dive back in but I'm legit having trouble leaving Andor on the table. I rewatched the whole thing again and was just kinda basking in...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Ok this is easily my best yet lol... I'm pretty sure cyan eye Din just saw through the Matrix! hehe It all started when we skipped Us and Shadowheart missed both her commands on the bridge. I said screw it and connected the nerve on the transponder. Had to just throw the shoes in the river...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Insomniac plan unraveled when Wyll interrupted the Durge scene. I think this is because I had yet to use Illithid Wisdom on one of the Goblins to get the group dialogue about the tadpoles. Instead it was the Wyll and Karlach stuff along with the Dream Guardian. Once I had committed to knocking...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    My Insomniac run has been going better than expected thus far. I opted not to rest when we hit the beach and just tried to keep it going for as long as I could. For this one I entered the Grove and did the quick circuit for Arabella and Alfira, avoiding the Dank Crypt and Astarion, before...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Another annoyingly close miss vs the 3rd Devil on the Nautiloid... I wasn't even going to try for it since we got a spike bulb for a big loot drop, but then Shadowheart landed her Command on the first try and inflict wounds for 37 dmg! I think that's the best I've seen so far, for a Shadowbae...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Yeah I completely botched it there thinking I could peel off a couple minions with a void bulb and the dagger cloud. I thought if I could kill that one guy who has the Fireball spell we could just lay down a Shadow and bounce to try and kill Karniss once he's alone (I didn't want to face him on...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    I hid from the Drider. Saved Harper Lassandra from Undead Yonas and the Shadows. Then saved Isobel and Jaheira from Marcus and the Winged Horrors. Apparently still not enough to hit lvl 5. I mean just sorta seems like they'd hurry me up on that one lol. Shadowheart pretty much saved the day with...

    BG3 Honour Mode: strategy & tactics (many spoilers)

    Trying to make it through the Creche at lvl 4 was pretty ridiculous. Probably should have killed the Zhents and taken all their smoke powder barrels to nail Ch'rai. As it happened we only just barely made it out alive, with Shadowheart casting Sanctuary and dashing for the door past half a...
