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: >>550922510

Not familiar with d&d loreIs there some canon reason every child is an insufferable little shit?
>Sorcerer Laezel>Paladin Karlach>Warlock AstarionIt is gaming time. What are your favorite Companion/Class combos?
>>551230823Most of them are tieflings - gypsies of D&D.
>>551230823Most of chidlren are like that IRLBG3 has some decent kids, like Umi, silfy and I even like Mol
>>551231639Mol isn't a decent kid she's literally the bad influence on the rest of them. None of them would be criminals without her. Even arabella stealing the idol the idea was planted by Mol
>>551232172yea but she's a heckin independent reddit bad gurlll?? (i'm not a pedo ok?)
>>551232172I know, she's a piece of shit and clearly when fucking Raphael puts his eyes on you shits not rightbut at least I dont find her insufferable, thats why I said "even Mol"
>>551231146those are CLEARLY cambion horns! lolpost your Tav
>>551233362Raphael only has good things to say about her though
>>551234210Yes but she's making her sign a contract so its all goodchat is Raphael on the Epstein list
What face mod has the best faces. Why can't I find a fucking mod that just adds a very simple nose ring. Not a septum, but a single nostril nose ring.
>>551234375>What face mod has the best facesI don't know, but just install this onethere's a "piercing" option in character creation, you dont need a face mod for thathttps://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/2001
>>551234357Does said contract stipulate the age of consent?

>>551236609Yes, it's quite economical imo>>551237140Thanks
>finally find a piercing mod I like>horribly off centerI should kill myself
I just can't take Orin or Gortash seriously, man. What a step down from Ketheric
>>551242684It's the opposite for me. I can't take Ketheric seriously because it's clear that his bargain with Myrkul existed solely to resurrect Isobel. He never seemed to care about the Dead Three's plan beyond that. You can't convince Orin to yield with a pretty speech.

I bless this thread for the seven.
I took mod pill and can't stop replaying the game, using new subclasses/classes and item combos.Goddamn im on my 5th run in 2 weeks.
Act 2 feels so flat compared to Act 1 and 3 in terms of RP opportunities.
>>551282087it was cut in half there used to be two towers and the whole subplot about isobel's death & halsin got also cut
>>551282350Every time I read about cut content from this game a big sad face appears on my heart
Voss' intro is so fucking cool >"Such a familiar tone">"A proud name. Regal even.>"I am who you say"Of all the interactions which feel theatrical but not crossing the line into retarded this one feels best.
>>551282608covid really messed with the game's development the fact that it did this well is already a miracle
Can I save this for the undead outside the creche or do I need to use it for the gobbos

I’m fucking CRYING brosReading YouTube comments made me realize Omeluum could have helped us in the final battle. Nobody else has to turn into a squid.
>>551290140yeah and the gnomes could have easily fixed karlach, the plot is full of holes especially if you take a good look at the timelines
>>551290220>gnomes could have fixed KarlachNo?The steel watchers are piloted by tadpoled zombies provided by Balthazar. The Gondians know jack shit about infernal engines in living beings.
>>551290140>>551290220Omeluum is in the Underdark while the Netherbrain is about to reach her full power and kill the Faerun gods as Baldur's Gate is 50% rubble.I, personally, was anticipating the Gondians fixing Karlach, but that's not because they were just sitting around. They had to make preparations for the final battle, and Karlach's machine probably wasn't made by them, they would have to take time to analyze and reconfigure a completely unique machine made for a living tiefling, not a hollowed out zombie.
>>551290896Omeluum is in the city in act 3He gets kidnapped but you can save him from iron throne
>>551290684>>551290896Also, Dammon was able to adjust her machine using fucking scrap and a shitty forge. If he couldn't figured out how to fix her, sleep-deprived Gondians aren't gonna do any better.>>551291013Good point, but that still leaves having to locate him out of the swarm of ghaik under the control of the Netherbrain. Did you forget he isn't protected by Orpheus?
>the plot is full of holesIt be two dumb bitches tellin' each other "exactlyyy".
>>551290684>The steel watchers are piloted by tadpoled zombies provided by Balthazar. and who built the steel watchers? you know it's either a plot hole or cut content because you can't even ask the gondians to take a look at her heart come on now
shart is most useless character in the gameRomancing Halsin and my husband Astarion.
>>551292442
>>551292350>and who built the steel watchers?The original steel watcher design intended for a gnome to pilot it. The infernal heart is of devil-make, the zombies and implementing infernal machines is Gortash's design.>you can't even ask the gondians to take a lookIgnoring the timetable of them needing sleep and preparing for the final battle, they would have to reverse engineer Karlach's "outdated" machine, working backwards from the ones used in the zombies and account for a living person to make a new one. That's not a simple fix, and Dammon apprenticed under Carixim, he couldn't figure out how to get it to cool down even with a good forge and tools. There was no time.

Swashbuckler Wyll, The Blade of Frontiers
>>551245656Durge truly gives you the most sense of freedom in his narrative, and all of the paths feel cohesive and sensible when properly played into them>Bog standard murderhobo who revels in the gore from the second he's released on the ship>Dexter Morgan manipulator who's all meek and smiles on the outside, and malicious slasher in the back alley>Amnesiac trying to right the wrongs of his past and is horrified every time he slips into the red haze
For me it's Melissan and Sarevok in BG3 are just specters made physical form, by Orin's incest schizophrenia and Bhaal's bloodlust for revenge.Gorion's WArd defeating Sarevok and Melissan are still canon to me. t. played original B1-2 enjoyer
>>551293720>For meIf you were reading/listening to the game, they just say all of this.
>>551293720>>551294024That's also how Chosen work. A god can and will just bring them back to life because they furthered their agenda so well.
>>551294128>>551294024reddit said Throne of Blood is not canon

What do you think Dragonborn pussy feels like?
CHA as a stat should be removed from the game and DND
>Classes where I have to pretty much Long Rest after every single fightHow do people deal with this this? It's obnoxious.
a tale of frogs, merry christmas /bgg/, can't wait for Divinity's early access I really want to see what they'll do with their lizards & elves
>>551299619it wouldn't even be so bad if long rests weren't a bunch of loading screens stitched together>teleport to camp>loading>turn camp into night>loading>start rest>rest cutscene plays (spam [space] to cut it short as possible)>loading>camp turns to day>get out of camp>loading>rebufflike fuck off holy shit
>>551299619The only rest-based class I actually like is Druid, and that's because it feels good across every stage of the game. Hell, Druid probably has the easiest early game of any class when it comes to combat. It turns out being able to shit an additional 10-20 health that effectively acts as a barrier to your actual health is insanely good. Spider form is fucking nuts in Act 1.
>>551293316Gross
>>551299809Cute frogs
>>551299619>How do people deal with this this?Don't use all your resources in one fight. Don't invest your might fully into your finite resources.
>>551301920>Don't use all your resources in one fight.On Tact that's kinda out of the question.
>>551302116What classes do you mean? I'm not that deep in my sorcerer's campaign, and the one I played to completion was an all-melee team (Rogue, Barbarian, Fighter, Cleric/Paladin).Since I beat the game, I know when and where I can long rest.
>>551302574>Since I beat the game, I know when and where I can long rest.I mean you can long rest as much as you want. Resources aren't an issue in the slightest even with the increased cost to 80. There's like 1200+ worth of food resources in Act 1 alone.
>bro just don't do fun stuffno thanks, i'll throw 6 fireballs every fight and eldritch blast the stragglers, after which i'll tell my bard to sing a short rest song and continue on to do the same thing to the next group of enemies :)

>>551293720But dumb frog poster, if you do prefer the game canon as you claim, then you should refer to the protagonist as CHARNAME, which is how players have always referred to them in the first place. "Gorion's Ward" is the soulless, nondescript entity existing in WotC canon, whose only canonical trait is surviving the Bhaalspawn crisis, and whose very descriptor diminishes their legacy. Imagine saving the world and being remembered only as the ward of some dead guy called Gorion.

Why is the Ranger: Gloom Stalker a much better "assassin" class than the actual Rogue: Assassin class?>Gloom Stalker gets Disguise Self at Lv3. Assassin gets Infiltration Expertise (literally the same spell) at Lv9>Gloom Stalker gets free invisibility as long as they're obscured from view on cast.
