>FAQ:
>Q: How often should I long rest?
>A: Many companion and romance interactions occur when long resting. 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.

Banned, undoubtedly. There's an Astariontranny who has become a janny and targets certain posters who piss xer off. You'll get incorrectly banned for off-topic, even when you're on topic too. Much actual off-topic posting is ignored. Xhe's killing the general, but it doesn't matter.

Nametranny can't be a janny. Too many off-topic posts mocking him get ignored. I've never seen a poster get banned for mocking Minthara either. Astarion? Different story.

there's no way to do this without knowing you have to block the entrance with chests to prevent the 2 cambions from joining
>>
>>542400676
I did it with my friend in multiplayer
>>
>>542400676
I killed him once or twice on normal difficulty right before the cambions reached me. You just need to use everything you have, debuff him, throw explosive tanks, and so on, and a bit of luck for a few crits.
>>
>>542400676
The other way is to haste the mindflayer so it mindblasts twice per round. Getting a few characters with mage hand is good too since mage hand can throw stuff including potions and bulbs. Also you can cheese the fight by shoving the mindflayer back and forth on the stairs so Zalk takes a bunch of opportunity attacks moving around chasing the mindflayer you're shoving. Don't forget to dip your weapons.

You could be approaching burnout. Might be time to set it aside and try a different game for a while.

Downloading bg3 for the first time finally as we speak

I dont particularly like turn based games but I want to play through for the story. Which is the one hit kill build that comes online from the getgo and you dont need to wait until like 70% of the game is done, preferably ranged?

I was reading up on gloomstalker with the titanstring bow. Do you guys recommend anything else? Preferably ranged/mage since I dont like melee with swords or fists

Jacob Taylor.

He's a black guy who's father abandoned him in order to become a serial rapist. That's not hyperbole. The companion questline involves finding him on a planet where his ship crashed and he was feeding the female crew flora that made them dumb and compliant and it implied he took advantage of them many times over the course of the years they were there. Jacob is also the only companion to be unfaithful to Shep between games if they're romancing him. Nobody else just moves on and gets a new spouse. Shep wasn't even dead, they were on house arrest. He just couldn't wait. I don't know what Bioware was thinking. It's actually crazy looking back.

I can't think of any others though. I tend to like Sazh, Barret, Cole Train, Marvel's Blade, Lucio, Tyrael, Solomorne Anthar, Ekundayo, and others that come to mind.

I don't think Wyll being somewhat lame has anything to do with him being black, he's just a cheesy character who calls himself the blade and says corny platitudes about being heroes. And stands around waiting for you to decide whether to save his father or not. None of the issues with Wyll would be meaningfully different if he was white or asian or whatever. Or an elf or orc or whatever.

>>542444501
Yeah, gloomstalker, assassin, and arcane archer are all great and ranged and do a lot of heavy lifting for damage. You might also consider sorc/wizard for lightning bolts, which you can throw water on people to make them vulnerable to lightning damage, which is online from level 1. These are nice strong simple builds that will always perform.

What I found a little weird is how you can complete Shar's Trials with anybody. Okay, one is obviously a team-based but the rest shouldn't be done by Shadowheart herself? How could she prove her worth as a potential Dark Justiciar if she's just standing on the sideline, watching her fellow adventurers carrying her over the finish line?

If it turns out you have to do it during Act 1 (or even worse in the Underdark itself) then that's straight up retarded and there will be consequences. Like me paying more attention next time.

Dear diary, these are the reasons to love Astarion...
1) His appearance. Facial features, thick hair, a fit body.
2) He’ll look after you and keep you safe.
3) He never broke, even after all of Cazador’s torture. Pookie has such a strong spirit!
4) It’s never boring with him. Adventurous, playful, and outgoing.
5) His facial expressions are very expressive, ranging from sweet to cocky.
6) You’re the one closest to his heart. When you’re together, nothing else in the world matters.
7) His voice. His laughter. His intonations. Thank you, Neil.
8) He pays attention to his appearance and style.
9) He’s confident and persistent.
10) He’s a clown. Silly, sweet and adorable.
11) He's very experienced, so he knows exactly how to make sex enjoyable.
12) Faithful. After what he’s been through, he’s not interested in casual flings anymore.
13) He’s flirtatious, cheeky and teasing.
14) Because of his care and faithfulness, you feel at peace with him.
15) He inspires you to create. There’s beauty in him, in his pain and in his joy, like a living work of art.
16) His duality. He’s both a victim and a predator, a clown and a poet, a cynic and a romantic. You want to comfort him and love him one moment and kick him the next, because he’s such an dork. He isn’t perfect, but it’s that very imperfection that makes him real.
17) He doesn’t try to help everyone. I like that he’s honest about things like that. He’s not afraid to be cruel when it’s necessary, and he doesn’t pretend.
18) He’s very dramatic, passionate, and romantic.
19) He knows how to embroider. It’s really sweet for a man to have such a “girlish” hobby.
20) His body is smooth and graceful. There’s an allure about him that’s impossible to ignore.
21) Deep down, he’s incredibly sensitive. Behind the humor, the cruelty, and the bravado hides a delicate soul.
22) When he’s truly loved, he can be incredibly generous and kind.
>>
23) His gaze. He can make your knees weak whenever he glances up at you.
24) His passion is inspiring. He’s a hedonist who isn’t afraid to take everything life has to offer. His hunger for it all is contagious.
25) He’s beautiful even in anger. His emotions are raw and untamed. He is a vampire, a predator. It's arousing.
26) He can turn into a bat. It triggers serious cute aggression!
27) He would do anything for you. He’d give up his parties and his power to travel the world by your side if that’s what you wanted.
28) He won’t judge your desires, not even the strange, dark, or forbidden ones. He’d probably just find them intriguing.
29) He’s got that sharp tongue. He is bitchy, funny, and impossible not to love.
30) He’s capable of cruelty, but with you he’s gentle, almost tender.
31) Even bloodied and bruised, with that Grinch expression on his face, he’s still impossibly beautiful.
32) He never grows old, and by his side, neither would you. "Aeterna amantes lovers forever, until the world falls down."

Returning Pike. As the name implies this is the only inexhaustible resource when it comes to throwing weapons. Technically available in Act 1 anytime, but most players reach it's trader later than sooner. Then you have a bracer that adds +1d4 damage to Throw Attacks, a ring that does the same (they do stack), a ring that gives +2 Acid damage (same here) to any weapon attacks. Outside of the last this is all exclusive items for throwing builds, then there's a couple other items that's more conditional but can also help you. The real MVP here is the game's most OP Feat, Tavern Brawler (STR modifier added twice to attack roles and damage). People usually use it for unarmed builds and forget that it also works with throwing attacks too. From there it's the usual TB and Hill Giant Strenght Elixir combo (it raises STR to 21, so you can dump it during char creation) and you'll hit very often and hard. There are further refinements (there's a Barb subclass that can use Bonus Action as a regular Throw Attack under Rage) but this is the gist of the thing.
>>
There's a bug with returning pike where sometimes it drops on you from really high when returning. I once had a bad start to Ketheric fight when Karlach took 76 damage from attacking a mind flayer.
>>
>>542478875
I never experienced it myself. I found myself empty-handed with the pike a meter away (as if the pike came back but the wielder couldn't catch it) but that only happened a few times. Easily 1-2% of all throws. Otherwise it's a real fun build!

I'm in Act 3 as a 10 Swords Bard / 2 Hexblade and while the build is strong, it's pretty fucking boring. Martial classes as a whole seem to revolve around just using regular weapon attacks or abilities like booming blade.

I just wish there was more variety than having 4-5 actions of melee attack and maybe pummel or something. Like even though my bard has spells, they're mostly passive bonuses or abilities like misty step that just let me more easily move around to booming blade someone.

Well,I thought I'd be able to get away with only having to kill Lae'zel and Astarion but Shadowheart seems to really want to defend this goblin. This won't change anything right? as far as I was aware if you ignore shadowheart at this part the artifact will simply appear at your camp and she'll be presumed dead.

Emps kills Lazy with an explosion if Lazy takes the artifact from Shart in Shart's origin story.

Lazy just takes the artifact to the creche and dies in the Zaithisk. Even if Emps saves her from the Zaithisk, she's still sitting in the creche and potentially still loyal to Vlaakith since no one convinced her otherwise, so the artifact simply falls into Vlaakith's hands again. The Emperor is killed by githyanki agents, but the Absolute cult is probably destroyed by Vlaakith's army, with massive collateral damage. We see the brain simply kill red dragons easily, so the city is destroyed and the gith suffer massive causalities, but an actually concerted effort by the gith could probably do it.

If Shart doesn't have someone in the party to make her touch grass, then she becomes a justiciar, kills all the allies from act 1/2, and brings the artifact to Viconia. This outcome might still end with the brain's destruction however, since the Sharran cult wants the Absolute cult dead too. So in a roundabout way, Shart could win the game. But it's not really a "good" ending, for her or the city.

Gale simple wins the game in act 2 with his nuke.

Wyll, Minthy, Jaheira, Karlach, and Halsin have the highest chance of winning the game in the traditional way.
However, Karlach might lose control when she sees Gortash and rush in and die, which would deliver the artifact to him and result in the cult winning.

Minsc never escapes from doppleganger control in time to stop the plot, and the cult wins.

None of this really matters however, since if the game's characters are not successful, Elminister just solves the problem at the last minute. But it's still fun to think about.

I know your character is an exception but high Strength martial classes can spice things up by throwing and shoving fools. That was my go-to method for eliminating enemies low on health! Grabbing one and throwing at the other has a chance of killing either/both/ knock the receiver Prone. What's not to like? Shoving as a bonus action is great for piling up even more bodies for an upcoming AoE. Eliminating entire Goblin squads in a round by throwing/shoving them into chasms also has it's own charm. My point is that even a powerful but boring build can spiced up if you use the entire arsenal available to you and sneak some creativity to the process.

Well to be fair, paladins can have their hoky symbol as part of their shield. So by that logic, why can't someone have, say, the pommel of their greatsword be a holy symbol?

Funny. I like how you can get additional lore and information just by separating companions and conducting dialogues with them. Almost as if you played them as origin characters.

Is this consistent with other parts of the game? Could be an oversight and the dialogue exists there in game files in case you play as shadow heart.

Paladins and clerics are divine spellcasters, heavy armor and weapons have never hindered that.

Absolutely. See >>542209614 in the previous thread. Once you understand that Larian effectively treats their system as a 4 player co-op with a dedicated avatar and how grouping/distance influences cutscenes and dialogues it's easy to manipulate them. The good news is that Larian is also aware of this and most of the time prepares for such scenarios. At least when it comes to more important scenes. Whether this stems from their beloved origins system or they just pay extra attention is hard to decide but it just works.
