Some early lower priority camp scenes can also be missed if higher priority ones are queued. To advance companion quests or romances, make sure to long rest often.>Q: Can I recruit Minthara without going down the evil path?>A: If you knock her out in Act 1, yes. You do miss out on the sex scene, but otherwise the romance remains the same.>Q: Underdark or Mountain Pass?>A: Either, or both. It's recommended to clear both on higher difficulties for the experience and loot. Both connect to the same Act 2 map.>Q: Is The Dark Urge essentially "Tav+"?>A: Yes. You get additional content, BUT there are points where, if you've chosen to resist the Urge and/or don't complete quests the "right" way, you'll have to pass additional checks to avoid losing companions.>Q: Are there any consequences to consuming tadpoles?>A: No, for the most part. However if you've consumed any tadpoles, there will later be a DC 21 Wisdom check to reject the Astral-Touched Tadpole, which affects your appearance if consumed.>Q: Should I enable Karmic Dice?>A: Karmic Dice will avoid streaks of low rolls, both for you and the enemy. It is recommended to disable it if you're specializing.>Polls:>Romance: https://strawpoll.com/NMnQ5kJXYn6>Race: https://strawpoll.com/kjn18WPzeyQ>Class: https://strawpoll.com/eNg69DKKjnA>Companions: https://strawpoll.com/bVg8o8l3VnYOP pasta: https://rentry.org/bggpastaPrevious thread: >>540523545
Missionary with Astarion
She won
>>540822138The only reason I recruit her is for the extra xp from completing her quest.I'll save Orpheus my next run, so I'll need her for that so I can squid her.
>>540822138why is she looking at me that way?
>>540822790shes submerged in ice water waiting for a kiss
>>540822790She wants to claim your anus.
>>540822790She needs your soul for a coin.
>>540823097
Just started a Durge playthrough and I have no idea how to make Sorcerer work. So far I'm doing pretty bad with him and I killed Gale (ate his arm) so I really need a damage dealer.
>>540826631Magic Missile
>>540826631Light crossbow is better than cantrips for damage until level 5 but frost ray is good control. You get scorching ray and shatter at level 3 and those do decently. At level 5 you also get lightning bolt and fireball and shouldn't have any problems from then on.
>>540826884Yeah but I have so little spell slots.
>>540826631cloud of dagger does a ton of damage early game
>companion leaves or dies>other companions comment on how sad they are>Halsin gets abducted by Orin and I fail thr DC 25 Persuasion Check, dies>after the battle, none of the companions have made remarks about it, they just comment on Bhaal and Orin>they act like Halsin never existed ???
The narrator's VA is voicing Hecate in Hades 2 I'm glad the bg3 cast is still starring in major releases
>>540827319they ran out of money please understand
>September of 2025>game came out in August of 2023>a solid 2 years time>only half of people have made it out of act 1 despite having two years to do itwild.And people wonder why it's industry standard across all genres to frontload content in the first section of the game. It's a natural response to the average gamer's habits.Excuse me, not average gamer, average normie.
>>540832079>>540830193shaddap
>>540827319Jaheira, Minsc, and Halsin are all tacked on followers that never feel like they fit. Hell, half the time Jaheira will bug out and not even act like a real follower.Minthara fits in better than those three even, but that's not saying much.
>>540833130Jaheira and Minsc are legacy characters. I feel like Larian was paying homage to old school BG fans by including them. So to me they fit better in the world than Minthara and Halshit.
which way anon?
Sure Halsin I'll protect the portal...
>try to play the game again>can't even look my Shaddy in the eyewhy...
>>540833859the male companions are so shit
>>540833859Astarion wouldn't wear something so unstylish eeew
>>540834928astarion exists so gale and wyll are forgiven
brainstorming>1 Wiz/1 Sorc/Bardthoughts?
>>540835396yeah ast's alright I like his banter & he's the funniest companion, the rest is garbage
I haven't found any piece of clothing or armour that is improved by dyes. Have you? share if so.
>>540835425ah shit nevermind, Meta is lv2.
>>540835850Sure, everything looks good in all black. One of the most popular (and first) mods for the game is a reusable all black dye.
>>540822790Her mom took the Tylenol pill
>>540835850A lot of the base game dyes are pretty bad. There's a few good ones in the mod Faeruncolors.>>540836142I am getting kind of bored of making the same girl dressed in all black over and over and over.
Literally playing with dress-up dolly outfits lol
>>540837113Yes
>>540835850some things are improved by dyes.
>>540837991The set she gets from becoming a justiciar looks so fucking ass in its natural color and I can't find a dye that looks good on it even with the modded dyes.That looks too Selunite, so that wouldn't work. But the Shar dye in Faeruncolors is too purple and not enough black.
i HATE seluneTymoragang WW@
>>540839150Fuck Shar, fuck SeluneT.Raven Queen chad.
>>540830193most people don't finish long games. the witcher 3 has a similar completion to bg3 even though it was released 10 years ago
>>540837113is it called dress-up if you take off all their clothes
We always talk about who we romance, but who is your Tav's best friend?
>>540841086Astarion
>>540835850it works great on basically anything that is not heavy armor
>>540842664based
>>540841086Karlach and Shaddy. With Astarion being the bf.
>>540845090No one wants to see your ugly male Tav.
>>540846431or that ugly woodelf
>>540839150The vast majority of people living in Faerûn are polytheists and worship multiple deities. The average person fears and respects the gods, not only a god. Offering a quick prayer to Tymora for good fortune (in the wars to come) wouldn't conflict with praying to Tyr for matters of justice or to Lathander for guidance on a new journey. But if we're going to get tribalistic about this, a cleric of Selûne sounds much cooler than a cleric of Tymora.
>>540846626There is a conflict between my legs with Cyric and Bhaal.
Her name is Shadowheart, or Shart.
>>540835850Dying is great to uniformize the character's look. Assembling a set and slapping the same color on them is a simple but trustworthy way to make anybody look at least decent. Bracers must be a priority as they're visible during cutscenes come in all kind of hues. I prefer retaining the original colors of chest pieces but some of them (prime example: Luminous Armour) just screams for some dye. The main problem is that most dyes are underwhelming and you can't access some of them best looking ones until late-game.
Now, to whom does the devilspawn pray? Does the devilspawn even pretend to observe the sacred customs of the circle it invades? Does the devilspawn fear the wrath of Silvanus, or respect the beauty of Mielikki? No. The devilspawn only fears and respects the archdevil that engendered its infernal race. When the devilspawn is caught off-guard, pay close attention to what it says in surprise. "Hells!" and certainly not "By the gods." Be wary of the devilspawn that comes into your home, breaks bread with you, steals your sacred idol, stabs you in the back with a smile on its wicked face. Be wary of these savages.
>>540847662Quick example: I have Astarion recruited but don't use him outside of his exclusive content. I wanted to take him to Moonrise for the potion but he had no dedicated gear, so I just gave him a Drow armor and slapped some new paint in it. It took like 2 minutes and he doesn't look as ordinary as he'd in any other common light armor.
>>540847662>Dying is great to uniformize the character's look.What if I'm afraid of death?
>>540846431No one wants to read your posts either
>>540850519>I have Astarion recruited but don't use him outside of his exclusive contentI had to drop my Astarion origin run bc the game was so bland without his commentary
>>540851152A post no one reads is harmless. An ugly character is an attack on beauty. We cannot afford to normalize the latter.
>>540852543You're fat and ugly irl quit begging for attention here kys already
Astarion is gay. Why do femcels want to rape him so much?
>>540854074
>Dis Nigga Sucks Edition>quit begging for attention here kys already
>Agathys>Hadar>Tasha>Melf>Evard>Otiluke>Ottowho are these people
>>540857281Victims of astarion
>>540819286what does a vegan playthrough look likewould lae'zel and karlach leave over it?
>>540850816Then do as I do with proofreading: pay it no mind! >>540851940So if you play a companion as an Origin character they remain mute throughout the run just like a random Tav? Despite having all their lines recorded already? Huh. I'm not sure how to feel about this but at least they're consistent.>>540841086Scratch of course.
>You are not ready to proceedGuess I'm taking the mountain pass after all.
>>540857457Lae'zel's character growth is all about reexamining the dogma that had governed her life. I don't think it's that far-fetched that she could be convinced to give up meat. Karlach is a people pleaser, but she could do whatever she wants.
>>540835850i like to make my partner match dyes
>>540858839Impressive, the half-orc isn't the most disgusting creature here.
>>540858839eww toadcel's tav
>>540854074Look at this message. it's a perfect example of toxic masculinity. This guy is seething all day simply because pookie dared to be seductive and attractive, so he labels him as gay and fills his comment with insults.
>>540858965
>>540858839No one wants to see your ugly half-orc.
>>540859071you almost feel bad for them (almost)
You could never replicate the Shaddy x Big H copypastas, pathetic
>>540859220nice try shartie LMAO
>>540857281they're the people that came up with the spell you're using
>>540859071>guy>heThe shitposter that spams these threads with nothing-posts 16 hours a day is barely human.
>some retard starts copying the halsin shitposts but with astarion>massive melties with anons screaming about big h and shartiesguess we found out who was responsible for the halsin shitposts kek
toadcel falseflags are not subtle at all
>>540859976Massive meltie where?
>>540859616Who's the tall scared cutie
>>540830193I've looked into this and 40-50% of players getting to act 2 is about the norm in CRPGs with steam achievements It's probably because of modules but NWN EE has a bit under 40% completion rate for the tutorial
Astarion has mindbroken itAstarion wins again
I think the reaction to this spam is obvious - post more cute fanart.
>>540861392>>540861468based. moids always get offended over husbando posting
>>540861468yeah it's asking for more shirtless astarion 100%
remember when Astarion asked Tav if they could have a threesome with Sebastian?oh wait I'm thinking of shaddy and big H
>>540861927astarion does disapprove if you tell halsin to gtfo tho
>sh*ddyHer name is Shadowheart, or Shart as a nickname.
>>540862137>I had a dream just like this once....
What the fuck is going on here,this is not very waifus, husbandoslove & harmony,not at all!
>What the fuck is going on here, why are you not repeating my rape joke?>It's fairly easy, see: when Cazador sent Astarion to the kennel to punish him, do you think Godey boned him?>It's a silly double entendre, as "boned" usually refers to a sexual act, but since Godey is a skeleton and when know he has beaten Astarion, the joke becomes a textbook example of absurdism.
how can I get back into the game if I can't even handle seeing or talking to Shaddy after what I know about her and "H"
https://youtu.be/iMv6vZ0ITxs?si=reeIk2TQYdVEZ-qD&t=865notice how Astarion doesn't try to convince you to include halsinShartbros.....
>>540862662Kill both of them duh
>>540862137I'm not surprised by his self-destructive tendencies
>>540861676Asty is sunbathing
This afternoon the lazy sun cast a diaphanous light from the windows, it reminded me of Rosymorn
>astarion shitposting gets removed almost immediately>an entire thread of shart halsin shitposting doesn't guess that settles it. an astariontranny is a janny
>>540863681shadowbaby stopped being popular once she asked to do THIS with THAT guy
>>540863681based
what does minthara mean when she says 'la li lu le lo'
>your underwear keeps disappearing from the laundry basket>lae'zel hits you with this
It's more like attention is only brought to spam once enough people report it. The janitor can't be everywhere, which is how off-topic garbage like https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/505602656/#505826270 somehow managed to avoid deletion. Anyway. Let's talk about the music of BG3. Specifically, the tracks written in the E minor, which, as the swine suggests, "conveys restlessness, antagonism, mysteriousness." Thought-provoking.
>>540865312>he's a prancing la la homoman like revolver ocelotlol
>>540865312Woah there, pardner
Lae'zel - A Stranger I RemainAstarion - I'm My Own Master NowDark Urge - The Only Thing I Know For RealOrin - A Soul Can't Be Cut

>>540864952That's how she cast lube on my dicc
Minthara's bulge...
>>540866995Yep! That smirk could kill too...
>exploring the surroundings of the House in the Deep Shadows >discovered you can aggro the Shambling Mould & co. from the edge of it>only the Mould has a ranged attack and nobody's jumping to our sideDis gon be b gud. Mundane and cheesy but gud regardless. I stole the grand prize from the chest an hour ago anyway.
>>540868730have you seen one of the new ones where he carries her to bed and fucks her
>Orin kidnapped Lae'zel I've been so accustomed to the victim being Halsin that I forgot to have her on the group.
>>540862734"Consider yourself invited Halsin!"Huh? He invites Halsin before you can even respond and disapproves if you tell Halsin to kick rocks
>>540869354why did the video skip over that lol
>>540869737Halsin: Perhaps you'd care for a little extra companyAstarion: Consider yourself invited! Combined, we've had five hundred years to hone our talents - let's put them to bad use.Tav: No, Halsin! Tame yourself!Astarion disapproves
>>540868593>another Harper got squeezed to death by the Shambling Mould Another senseless tragedy in the Shadow-Cursed community.
what's crazy is companions disapprove if you don't let halsin in the orgy but don't disapprove if you tell them you're gonna fuck the two drow and halsin without them
Can you guys stop bringing Halsin to the brothel. I think you wanted to be cucked.
>>540871076Cuckolding is the fetish for intellectuals
>>540871076past. tense.
>>540870237is this ascended only? just tried it now and the line didn't trigger

>>540871806>>540872112It should work for both paths. If it doesn't then it's bugged.
>>540872112nvm halsin is currently kidnapped in this save
>>540872112Daddy Halsin has enough goodberries for everybody
>>540868972sure! I think I spend half an hour or even more every day on social media, checking out what sisters have posted. Asti takes so much of my time, but at least he makes me happy
>try to kill the banites in the fireworks place without blowing up the boxes so I can loot them>the merchant aggros, casts a fireball at a wall between the store main floor and the stairs, blowing up himself and everyone at the first floor and crashing the gamethat's 2 hours of progress, I have to save Volo and do stone lord hideout again too

>>540874047samee when i wake up i check all the artists i follow its like the morning newspaper but porn
why are foids like this
I wasn't like this until himlarian has some explaining to doknowingly selling digital crack
is astarion the shadowheart or the lae'zel of male romances
>>540878263Shadowheart as in most popular and conventionally attractive male
>>540878263
>>540878263the shadowheart
>>540878263shadowheart for popularity, lae'zel for quality and story arc
>>540879830is this a joke astarion is self-centered as fuck
>>540880058toadcel do his romance
I don't know how anyone can justify wasting a spot on Astarion when you can only bring three companions. Lae'zel and Shadowheart are a given, and the third spot should go to either Karlach or Minthara.
>>540880386>uses only the female characterscringe
>>540880386especially if lae'zel is a good lockpicker with astral knowledge
>https://youtu.be/JdL-SdZU1Ok?si=YR7R7kB5xBFhOkJrnotice how even early access wyll didn't have day 1 camp dialogues
>>540880058nigga is too autistic to tell when someone is putting up a facade
>>540881215mod author is only focusing on restoring cut content that fits current release, so none of these will have wyll bc diff voice actor and rewrite lolshe does have some scenes up on her mod page that don't fit the narrative but available in case people want them, separate from the big main mod that's coming out
>>540881215Wyll continues to be an afterthought
>>540881215Wyll had a different VA in early access
You did know about the Shadow Mastiffs, didn't you? Me neither.
>>540882196Will be funny to see how different EA Wyll is ingame again
>>540880386Bring where?
>>540878585>waking up next to an ugly toad
>>540883404on my first playthrough i never used speak to dead so i never really discovered it
>>540865187>It's more like attention is only brought to spam once enough people report it.Makes sense. The Astyfags here are obvious foids, and women are always the biggest cry babies that will report anything they don't like
This time the fireworks place didn't crash, but one of the banites died on the stairs, started trashing wildly and stretched and twisted himself into knots.
>>540878147same I used to avoid my partner and only liked kissing and hugging. But after Astarion, I’ve been horny almost every day and don’t even want to date anyone anymore. It’s all imaginary, but it feels so real as if I’m actually madly in love with a real person. What kind of magic does this "digital crack" use???
>>540884863The reward is perfect for Act 2. I wish I revisited that part of the map earlier. >on my first playthrough i never used speak to deadIntentionally or you just never realized it's potential?
Oldfags will remember when Tav's shirt didn't have a green collar.

Fuckin' feetfags I swear!
>>540894352you will romance her and you will like it
>>540894792i have no choice now lmao. woulda romanced gale since astarion is a powerfag but gale hates his ass. i guess dark justiciars are pretty powerful too
>>540864952Here is a page of her combat lines. On here, we find:"L'il alurl!""Ssussun pholor dos.""Phlar Lolth ssinssrickla.""Oloth dos.""Kyone""Velkyn""Veldryn".https://bg3.wiki/wiki/Minthara/BanterWe can then consult this page for the drow language.https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Drow_dictionaryWe find that she is saying:"The Best""Light Upon You""When Lolth Giggles""Darkness Upon You""Alert" or "Cautiously""Invisible""Hidden"Other drow throughout the game can be heard saying some of these too.
I only have one question: how was he able to write the last section down if he turned already?
fat karlach shits

>if i was youshouldn't this be "if i were you" or am i retarded?
>>540899379this is very informative thank you
>>540880386I use Astarion, Karlach and Minthara because they are the strongest and most meta units.
>>540901743Astarion and Karlach sure, but why Minthara?
Which of the daedric princes would get worshipped in Baldur's Gate?
>>540899379Beautiful yuri couple.
>>540880386Define "waste". Raw might is not the only possible criteria here, especially if you're actually role-playing. I found rotating your companions on the regular is the most satisfying and fruitful experience. Not just here but in RPGs in general.>>540901060I'm not a native speaker but you're correct. "If I was" can be used in specific cases but the fact that Shart is speaking hypothetically there eliminates that.
>>540902079Soul branding and she comes with tadpoles already so you get a refund when you give her the astral.
>>540885809I've been seeing a lot of model deformation lately, way more than the last time I played a few months ago.

I will sex karlach irl.
>>540910573beautiful eyes

>>540909859nice. shart was the only one i was able to romance at all when trying to play astarion in character. gale seethed at every little mean thing i did. frog got merked by shart too quick for any romance. wyll took off when i told minthara where the grove was. karlach tried to kill me on sight lol

>>540910192Good point, but doesn't the last paragraph give you the impression that he specifically turned into a Shadow? Especially the "bones snapping, body softening, silking" part.
Quick idea for keeping your Camp Stash neat: group your non-unique Backpacks by their description! There are 3 different types (the first one has a bedroll on it's icon, the last two lacks that):>A durable bag of thick canvas...>A simple canvas bag, perfect for...>The decorative stitches on this bag's left strap...Sort by Type in your Traveller's Chest, find the first of each, Open and put inside the rest with the same description there. Now you have everything grouped in 3 slots with a counter on it.
Why do you still play? Are you roleplaying? Just using powerful builds to see big damage numbers?

Wah wah why do we allow this wah, do you remember? You "allow" nothing, you had no choice. You never had a choice. And you can look around now and see what your crying got you. Bears and Arabella until this thread's last day. Maybe into the space game too. Would you like that? Maybe that's what we'll do. Maybe it'll turn out the only space is between your ears.
>>540934284>Maybe into the space game too. Would you like that?I hope we'll get a reveal during the game awards but swen keeps telling people that games take a lot of time to make on twitter
Gale romance is surprisingly good but also very gay.

The attention whore is simply incapable of contributing anything of worth.>Having Tav+only 3 other companions greatly limits the "social experience" of having a party. Having a larger party, hearing them banter back and forth with each other, is very immersive

I had a craving to make a shadow sorc that also uses druidic plant spells. Death and life.I really like how her jammies turned out after playing with dyes a bit.

>>540963123Your stats making the spell more substantial.Also, it's just cool to be a sorcerer.>>540965771Normally I'd use another top. But having to play on low settings, the lace of the top that I like most looks really really bad.Also, I really like Jergal's chapel camp site, and the chapel interior itself. To the point that it's already nostalgic for me, despite having only played the game for about a year now.
How do tieflings sleep with their horns in the way?
Haven't finished the game yet, what's the deal with Shadowheart and Halsin?
>>540966553They just horn in on the pillow
>>540961927yeah those look cute! I'm using the pusheen camp clothing mod, and they're also very cute
>>540965502>then she told orin she could keep halsinwtf Jenny does what you guys can't
>>540953689Jenny now seethes eternally and calls Shaddy a lesbian in every interview out of spite
>>540963123Scrolls are finite resource, not all cantrips/spells have a scroll equivalent, you're missing out on their passive features and Channel Divinity actions/Metamagic/etc.>>540966553Have you not seen the dead Tieflings at the ambush site or the rest scattered around the map? That's how they sleep as well.
I just had the most confusing experience of my playthrough yet. I was assaulting the goblin camp with the ogor allies, when all of a sudden, literally everyone, including my own party, became hostile. I don't know if it was the Dread Overlord mod or something else, but I just had to kill everyone to finally end it.
Her name is Shadowheart, or Shart as a nickname.

>using mods aka cheatsYou deserve it
>>540967765What mods are you using anon?
>>540968256Mostly difficulty and class mods, alongside random spawns. I also have the expanded party mod too. I play on console.
>>540967765I had something like that while playing with my friend. We became hostile to each other, but not Shart and Lae.He was using the "Dark Knight" mod class in that moment, and I accidentally killed his echo when I knocked the block down to kill those two bandits at Jergal's chapel, which I think turned him hostile. But he didn't turn hostile until after we killed the last bandit.
>>540969043>>540969158We also had the random spawn mod, it might be the root cause. It seems buggy, and I never liked using it, so I made up a lie that it was fucking with my performance to get us to uninstall it.

>>540969346>Realms RestoredYou LOVE pigslop.
>>540969158>>540969296I've also been having some issues with the random spawn mod as well. I like the difficulty increase, but the enemy dupes and random buffs are becoming much more trouble than they're worth. It made for a fantastic bloodbath of a battlefield though. But yeah, I think I'm just going to uninstall it on my next playthrough.

Who is "Shaddy"
>>540985330halsin & minthara were already semi major characters of act 1 making them companions was less effort I still wish she would have been a party member having two druids is retarded

So I want to do a Dark Urge for the first time. I spoiled myself on the basic gist, but I have this problem with most RPGS where I just stagnate on what I want to build for my party. How do I, for lack of better words, "De-program" myself to just go seat of my pants on a character and not worry about "the best build" or whatever?

How blown out is Shadowheart's asshole?
>>540994845response from Grok:On a scale of "tight as a goblin's grip on a shiny" to "stretched wider than the Sword Coast after a Netherbrain party," Shadowheart's asshole is a solid moderately blown out—say, 6/10. She's got that Sharran edge: devoted enough to her goddess to edge-walk the line between vanilla devotion and full-on group romps with Halsin and the Drow twins (she loves it, per fan breakdowns and in-game dialogue). But her arc's more about emotional baggage than backdoor marathons—think "I can fix her" vibes from the BG3 community, not "I can fist her."If you're romancing her, lean into the approval system: spare the goblins, chat up her Shar dreams without judgment, and you'll unlock scenes where she's open to experimentation (including anal if you mod or headcanon heavy). No canon metric exists (Larian didn't patch in a proctology check), but fanfic and Pornhub trends suggest she's versatile: coy at first, then all-in once trust hits. Want to "test" it yourself? Fire up BG3, seduce her post-Act 1, and let the dice decide. Just don't forget lube—or a Potion of Glorious Vaulting.
>>540983171this AI right? Why would they take a photo of someone taking a photo

Two mod questions.Is there really no mod to let you bind an offhand weapon with hexblade without the Blade Pact mod that's bugged with hexblade's bind?The appearance edit mod for origin characters; is it safe to uninstall if I'm just playing with a friend that has a smaller modlist, or does it bug out even then? I don't plan on uninstalling it from my personal runs if I use it
>>540983171That alfaria gives off so much slut energy, I need her
It will never stop being hilarious how Astarion just feels entitled to Tav's help, even though he's, in-universe, most likely the most expendable party member. It's like he expects the first sucker he finds to just jump at the opportunity to deal with his master, a full-fledged vampire in his lair, just to make him happy. It's really not my problem.
>>540986015What if we could drop/kill Jaheira for Minsc?
why couldn't I be enough for you Shaddywhy are you programmed to fall for the archdruid Halsin... instead of just being happy with me...
>>540999171female Tav and Astarion are canonyour headcanon is cute, though teehee
>>541006138I feel like none of the companions feel like friends, all they do is act sassy and call each other hot/cringe
>>541007251That's based though, the camp should be an orgy
>>541007251>I feel like none of the companions feel like friendsEvery companion likes Shadowheart, though.
>>541007418.>>541007534that doesn't make them friends
>>541007628>that doesn't make them friendsI mean, it's Wyll but that still counts...right?
>>540999171His whole situation comes into play with the Gur monster hunter. From that point your camp might be in danger (you can talk about this with Astarion), so at least you have that much incentive to pay attention to his shit.>>540995192>>540996546The official photo is going to be edited in a million ways. This one mostly retains the original circumstances. Think of it like a behind the scenes film about how another one was made!
>>541007965no, calling each other friends doesn't make them feel like friends either
We've run out of things to talk about
These damn Tiefling kids really are annoying. They steal and act like victims when caught, or don't even have the decency to pretend to be sorry. And then the adults just enable them by using the orphan excuse.And if you think this is equivalent to a real life group, then fuck off.
>>541007534cute caring frog
>>541008923yeah just like IRL its purely socio economic factors
what does Shaddy smell like
>>541009157Musk
>>541008923Couldn't agree more.
I want to lick Shadowheart's armpits. And with the power of AI and neuralink, one day I will.
finally finished all the side stuff for bg3, just got the final battle left! gonna do that tomorrow, man i was ready for this game to be over like 5 days ago lol
she cute
based minthara
BG3 is not a timeless classic.
>>541016415we didn't get an AAA CRPG since dragon age origins, bg3 is objectively a classic idk if you would call it one of the greats though even larian's ceo feels like they can do way better
shocking grasp is op in honor mode
>>541008923Mol is genuinely about protecting her kids and they know she's the only one they could count on. After Zevlor's disappearance she also took responsibility for getting them to the safety of Baldur's Gate in one piece. If you look through the Inspiration events for the Urchin background two themes dominate it: 1) looking out for each other (as there's nobody else to keep you alive) and 2) being creative and resourceful with the meager resources you have (including actually getting these resources, as you have nothing else to survive off). They feel the adults let them down and if they want something to get done they have to do it themselves. So while I agree with the usual points at least their thievery is not rooted in greed, it's merely a tool to make ends meet and further their otherwise very fundamental goals. Most of the kids are not built for this life but they view it as a "what else can we do / what else do we have?" situation. The only real priority is surviving until they reach the promised land.
Luring normies with mocap and romance doesn't make a game classic
>>541017339They could at least wait until reaching Baldur's Gate before resorting to stealing. They're given food, shelter, and protection from capable people for the first two acts.
>>541017349
>>541018851Irrelevant. Next are you going to bring up Cawadooty's numbers? Or some gacha trash?
>>541008923I also rob all merchants (including Matthis) dry so I don't mind their behavior that much
>>541018415>They feel the adults let them down and if they want something to get done they have to do it themselves. This all goes back to this. In the Grove it was the druids who keep them afloat but their trader mentions how their resources are finite. As for not getting kicked out and eventually being able to continue their journey, well, they can thank all this to the player. Between the first two acts 4 out of the 11 Tiefling kids disappeared. It's only reasonable to assume they died but if Larian hides living kids in Photo Mode you can imagine their policy regarding their corpses. Then Zevlor bailed and like half of the adults got massacred in the ambush, including their main guard and their martial trainer. So it's easy to see why they didn't trust the Tiefling adults to provide. Remember, the whole Arabella situation (and then Mol offering you the same job) stemmed from the kids wanting to prevent the completion of the ritual as they felt the adults just sat on their asses.

I've done Tav, Durge, Shadowheart, and Wyll playthroughs. Any other origins actually worth doing?
i forgot to figure out what the scar runes looked like before this so i would've been cooked if it were a solo run. at least shart let me use her eyes lol

>>541034781karlach origin has some voiceover
>>541036579I like doing this fight without Astarion so I can kill her without pissing him off.Kill all child murderers.
I use the 'feats on even levels' mod because I hated being limited to alert, ASI, one other. I like the freedom of getting elemental adept or savage attacker AND great weapon master, or lucky or mage slayer.
>>541036976Does Astarion just straight up leave your game if you kill Cazador without him?
>>541034781gale gets a lot of unique content. karlach gets some voiced inner monologues and romance stuff. i'm having fun doing astarion's right now
>>541037163He gets a little pissy, but as long as you basically ignored him through act 2 so he never learns about the scars or the ritual, it's not that big of a deal.
they forgot to give minthara a reaction to astarion ascending. kinda annoying
Hmm...
strangely minthara DOES have a reaction to killing the gur right after tho
>>541038641
>>541039590no i meant in the greeting after the ascension scene. all i got was a "you wish to consult me?" while the other two had more to say
>Take Minthera to the boat>There are no boats cause i took the gnomes and tiefling back with it and didnt come back with itEpicJUST EPIC
>>541040724well well well if it isn't consequences of your own actions
I stole Mystic Carrions staff and use it to blind everyone. 99% means FUCK YOU.
>>541040724>>541040920I can't believe I never thought to break her out with the gnomes and teefs... I always just take her out the front.Also, I am angry... shadow sorc can't get shovel. You're just treated like a storm sorc. These new subclasses really are just ripped off mods, aren't they? None of them feel like they're official content, considering there's 0 reactivity.
>another thread>another schizo mad about Halsin Don't make me post my rant about how he's the only well-developed and story-relevant character again
>he's the only well-developed and story-relevant characterIs wyll thanks to his connection to gortash and baldurs since he is a duke.
Nobody cares about your rant. The truth is you're just another nigger, and this general is your prison.
>evil army 5 feet away>I SEEK JUSTICE.....BY JUDGING THIS GOSSIPING DWARF THAT ALREADY DIEDWhat's his fucking problem?
Apparently the city was originally segmented but later made seamless. A bad change if you ask me.
>>541044808He was based for torturing a snitchI only wish you could torture her worse.
>>541045090Agree. Seamless city gives no advantage.
>been in the shadowlands for 25 hours now>still dont know whats happening>halsin still sitting next to the sleeping dudeThis is gonna be another 30 hours I just know it
>>541046068There are like 10 notable things in act 2, wth are you just standing still smelling jaheiras farts?
Mmmmmhhhg jaherias gilf farts
Halsin fucking the sharts out of Shart for 30 hours straight, just an endless torrent of assgasms that render her a mindless, smelly whore. Lae'zel, staying at camp and tending to her egg, a simple and loyal stay at home mom.Karlach, eager to finger anuses.
>>541044808Have you completed his quest already? It had little to do with justice or retribution.>>541045090It is, but getting the originally planned Baldur's Gate was never a real scenario. Outside of he obvious>Larian>act 3you have the performance issues and the need for many more assets to avoid repetitiveness. It was a pipe dream.>>541046068Have you not checked his personal belongings? If you don't find it on him try to talk to the black-haired Fist next to Art. It'll give you a hint where to go next.
>>541047263I decided to look it up (partially) and it turns out I've had his thing for a long time now as it was one of the first places I stumbled on while exploring after leaving Last Light......never noticed the initial on the item descriptionOr if I did, I didnt put it togetherDang
>>540999171This. He is actually, in terms of what actually happens in the story, has less relevance than any other party member, despite being the easiest to recruit. His entire story could happen in the background of the main story and you would only have vague idea that it did when a few vampires popped out of the sewer. Killing him would make it so you never even heard Cazador's name.>Shadowheart- mandatory story stuff in A2, optional story stuff in A3>Laezel- optional story stuff in A1, like maybe one skippable story thing in A3>Karlach- arguably as irrelevant as Assturdion, you at least have to meet K's NPCs once or twice>Wyll- nobody, but you still have to fuck up to not meet him>Gale- tidbits of story in A1+A2, skippable conclusion in A3>Minty- literally the villain of a major story arc, still somewhat important in A2>Minsc and Jaheira- legacy, no real story going on thereMeanwhile Halsin is a major story figure in the events of both A1 and A2. You can't complete the game without interacting with some of his story. He's in charge of the first real story location you go to, and he's the reason you go to the goblin camp. He is necessary for story-altering events in A2 to take place, and by extension is necessary for making sure you can complete Karlach's meager story. He's one the only companions with an actual stake in the overall story, with a huge power gap before Minthara and Laezel take up 2nd place. Astarion ONLY exists to open doors and rob traders.
>>541047132>Karlube fingers ur pooper>It gets cauterized
>>541049307cute little frog!
I love when Minthy is covered in blood. Reminds me of dragon age.
>>541017339Good post. While the tiefling kids might be annoying brats, they at least have each other's backs. And while Mol might be a bad influence on them, she's principled enough to vouch for you if you help her gang in the first act. In the absence of parents, they become each other's family. For all their flaws, you can't help but find them endearing.
>>541035762This is solid, but there really isn't any reason to pick Champion over Battle Master or Eldritch Knight.
They have to fix the big foundry boss, its not fun to have the boss be immortal for 3 turns.

Thinkgen of playing as a paladin Karlach
>>541070930Fucking with an destroying an entire family is the kind of thing a hag would love, and she stood to gain this woman's daughter out of it.But instead she just takes her eyes and kills her? Not really hag behavior, it's too simple. I think either the hag made her think she had a daughter or she was a schizo. She specifically said the child was something her family couldn't touch.
>>541070463It's such a worthless mission.A Selunite converts to Shar every day somewhere in the world. Who gives a shit, why would Shart be special?
>>541075878because larian said so
>>541075878No one cares if some depressomaster like Ketheric Thorm converts from Selune to Shar, it has to be a youngling who hasn't gotten jaded and sad yet.
>bg3 is canon>but only this specific tav path where everyone is saved and spared and evil is defeated
>>541078197They could make psycho Tav or evil Durge canon if they wanted to fuck with everyone.Cause you do know what happens after the credits roll on that, right? Ao comes down, dickslaps the Absolute and Durge, and then tells Jergal to clean up the rest of his fucking mess and not bother him again.
>>541078197What of the prior BG games is canon?
>>541078197the canon events are those that happen in my favorite playthrough
>>541078197This but unironically. The only addendum is that Tav is a beautiful, slightly underage human female paladin who gets her pussy and butt eaten by Shadowheart on a beach.
>>541078696The one where Serevok and Irenicus are defeated
The canon Abdel Adrian was a lazy gamer who didn't do half the game's side quests and didn't do half the companion questlines.I wouldn't be surprised at all actually if Durge becomes canon. Remember, they made Murder in Baldur's Gate, in which Durge was already the protagonist.
