Man, it seems I only know a fraction of the quests, items, etc. in this game. I don't know how you guys discover all this stuff! Thanks, btw, for the mod recommendations. It caused me to do yet another restart, but worth it.

@Antimatter What Karlach mod is that?!? I need that!!! @Black Elk I had no idea you could use sanctuary on someone other than yourself. Awesome! I’m going to use that on Wyll to ensure Hunger of Hadar lasts a full ten.

I thought I'd see what the Us fuss was all about on my latest run, and was surprised to find out that strength works too for this unpleasant task. However, strength (breaking the skull) seems like an unlikely attribute to use for, well, brain surgery, lol. I doubt it's a technique they're...

I restarted because I'm unhappy with some RP choices I made, and Lae'zel just isn't cutting it as a BM. Enemies just keep making their saves against her trip and disarm attacks. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but I don't think so. Champion it is, from now on. I had great success with it in...

How long did you spend in character creation?

I commend your attempts and successes, Black Elk!

He seems to have mad skills. He’ll take down the devils on the nautalis, for instance, something I would never dare attempt. He can complete no reloads.

Great to have two more players!

I'm battling restartitis again as well. My Paladin run is... fine? Except, well, another RP element is bothering me. Lae'zel. I love Lae'zel because the artwork and voice acting are great. And writing wise, she's great for what she is. However... she's vile. From an RP standpoint, there are just...

Good news: I have Scratch in my party - I had originally thought a mod was required for that, for some reason. Bad news: I’m afraid he'll get hurt so I don’t want to use him. 😂 Good news: you can still get the owl bear cub without killing the mother. Bad news: that means the goblins killed her...

I think you should, in your best Icelandic, ask the locals: “Could you please direct me to Sorcerous Sundries?”

So I hit the owl bear cave last night. For the first time ever, I was successful on my ‘animal behaviour’ roll, or whatever it’s called. I could see that the mother just wanted to protect its cub. As a paladin, I couldn’t justify attacking, so I left. No cub in this run, but it feels right. I...

Yeah, that’s another one of those tough rolls. Game over if you’re under levelled.

If I were a biology student, I’d genetically engineer an owl bear for my dissertation.

I just lost a run because I discovered that I won’t be able to get the gloves of thievery unless I murder one of the Zhents from the pirate/gnoll cave (I’m a paladin, so that crosses a line). Ugh. Sometimes a bad choice or shitty roll can land you in untenable circumstances in this game, sigh...

Yeah, there’s a lot of gamey stuff in BG3. I approach it much more from a RP standpoint. A lot of the respeccing I read about just feels wrong to me, especially changing to classes that make no sense from a story standpoint. I can see giving SH some levels in rogue, and maybe some sword bard...

I’m interested in your stat allocation. Conventional wisdom is that you should make them even numbers. I’m guessing you’ll be after the hag’s hair? And then boost dex and con with an ASI feat?

Well, the combination of gorgeous aesthetics (mainly the painted 2D backgrounds), music, tactical party combat (that, IMO has yet to be surpassed), and a degree of interactivity between party members (including romances) that, AFAIK, was hitherto unheard of. Most would probably applaud the story...

We may need a ‘heresy’ reaction button on this forum. 😉 😂

I couldn’t agree more! I’ve only seen season 1 so far, but I’d say it’s one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. And I’m not even a Star Wars fan.
