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: >>556647980

>>557198701Thoughts on him posting art of halsin getting pegged? Or do you just nag about whichever topic gets the highest amount of people laughing at you?
>>557199741did anyone report that or does it get ignored

>>557199410cute frog
>>557200179I didn't report it, it was way too funny to want ai art of halsin getting ass fucked gone LMAO
>>557199741>>557200094it'll always be deleted, just like when they posted animal gore and other heinous stuff >>557198936PSX1 Bg3 remake when? even tho, it looks like AI slop>>557200179duergar giant barbarian is very powerful, normies being wrong again

>>557198501Sabrina Carpenter is so fugly Jesus. I'd take Karlach over her.
>>557198501Sabrina Carpenter is so hot, Jesus. I'd kill Karlach for her.
>>557200876Halflings and Duergar having OP racials is well known, but they're still played by very few.

>>557202296>I run my own business, I’m health conscious, and I’m kind to women. Trust me, I’ve had my fair share of lovers and probably some of your share too. And not one would ever think so little of me that they openly dream about another person for an extended time. Not one would ever ask me to have sex with that person to satisfy their own selfish fantasy. Shadowheart betrays a player that has risked their life for her, and she does it for Halsin. That’s canon and the player has no choice about it.Did this guy cook? Does Shadowheart really betray the player
Godey BoneyBoney Godey
>>557202296>>557202402>>557202493Godey will rape you
>>557202493man shut the fuck up
What's the better option for Cazador's Palace: casting Daylight as a sphere wherever the boss battle takes place or on weapon(s) before entering the place?My suspicion is that we're going to meet non-hostile vamps there and I don't want Daylight to fuck things up with them. They suppose to be sensitive to it after all.
>>557202493See, this is another example of tangentially mentioning BG3 or characters from the game to justify your off-topic drivel. It's the same playbook as the parasite, though no one in their sane mind would conflate these two different shitposters.
>>557203136
>>557198632Shadowheart isn’t - she canonically desires Halsin sexually to the point that she literally dreams about it multiple times and for an extended period. We also have various comments from other Sharrans indicating that multiple males have had carnal knowledge of Shadowheart.Karlach is also iffy, she does fit a certain lesbian aesthetic but I’m not aware of any canon information on her sexual preferences that exist outside of player interference. It’s important to note she effectively ends up with Wyll in what would be considered the good ending (and likely the basis for the show) so she’s bi if not totally straight.Minthara is really the only one who shows clear signs of lesbian intent away from and separate from player decisions. She only mentions female lovers, she expresses disdain towards males, and her culture and social standing both predispose her towards lesbianism. Obviously player choice can disrupt this if one plays a male and then romances Minthara, but taken as a person existing before and outside the player we only ever see her in a lesbian framing.
FROG
>>557203319Minthara is bi like every single companion and finds several men attractive throughout the game
They’re only attracted to me, losers.
>>557198501
>>557203521She can be attracted to the player as a gameplay contrivance, but we’re talking about the canon implementation of the characters. Minthara can be reclassed by the player into a Druid, that doesn’t mean she is one. Minthara only shows non-player intimacy to a female Drow offscreen and Orin. If we’re evaluating the game and not headcanon, well that’s the game.
>>557203282Gross. Remove the farm equipment.
>>557203319>>557203764Can you post Halsin porn again?
>>557203764Minthara finds Astarion beautiful and Gale's beard dashing. She also said that drow males were used for pleasure in the drow city. She's a bisexual slut and the devs have stated many times that all the devs are canonically bi. Sorry for killing your lesbian fantasies fatty
Man Mantharatranny you should make a movement to cancel Swen for lesbian erasure.
>the companion with a cut pregnancy is actually a lesbian
I said they’re only attracted to me. The argument is moot.
>>557200876No amount of OP racial abilities will counter the shame of being a manlet.
>>557204230If drow could get pregnant without males, all the dudes would have been sacrificed to Lolth millennia ago.
Happy valentine's day /bgg/
>>557204590His ideal society
>>557204509racial abilities? no but a Giant Barb dwarf will absolutely tower your average drow dude
Just say no, you DID take your romance to a brothel...
>>557204009I’ve already addressed this. Minthara is a leader and she’s doing what leaders do, giving encouragement to others in the language they appreciate. None of this displays actual sexual preferences. A man can note that another man is attractive or looks dashing without being taken for gay, and a woman can do so without being assumed to have sexual attraction to them. Saying that a person with an orientation towards Astarion might appreciate him isn’t the same. I think you know this but you want to lie. What we know of Minthara’s romantic history is that it’s far more limited than the others and is weighted exclusively towards women. Again this is based entirely on what is in the game.
>>557204984Minthara bouncing on dwarf cock, cry about it
>>557204984>I’ve already addressed thisLMAO
>>557204230Being a lesbian does not mean the reproductive system stops working. If the player intervenes to alter the independent canon orientation of the character then there’s no reason to believe she couldn’t become pregnant. That’s neither here nor there. Further, it’s very explicitly CUT content, not in the game and not canon as a result. All sorts of ideas were once entertained, probably including Shadowheart not betraying the player in her heart for the sake of Halsin. But we can’t discuss speculative canon. We can only discuss actual canon. The actual canon is that Minthara mentions a single female lover, leaving it ambiguous if they actually slept together but clearly she was in love. She also indicates an unrequited crush for Orin, another woman, which we know was never consummated but otherwise shows her preference for women. There’s no point in arguing with the game itself. You’re making yourself look pathetic.
>Big H broke him so hard he only wants women who are "lesbians"kek
>Shadowheart loses her appetite for mushrooms after meeting myconids>the kitchen in the Gauntlet of Shar has only mushrooms as foodAnother hint she isn't made to be a sharran.
recruiting random NPCs has been the most fun I've had, making it diverse and random like, almost a rogue-lite feel>>557204984>>557205374just finish the whole thing before claiming your waifu next time you're playing a game
Minthara RavengardMinthara AncuninMinthara DekariosMinthara Silverbough
>>557203319>and her culture and social standing both predispose her towards lesbianism.This is both fatally stereotyping and reductive, as mentioned before, when you used the loaded term "lesbian-coded." No culture, even one as rigidly matriarchal as the Lolthite drow, "predisposes" its members to a sexual orientation. There is no culture that deterministically mass produces homosexual deep gnome slaves or lesbian noble drow daughters. Viconia in BG2 is explicitly not a lesbian, and although House DeVir is not as prestigious as House Baenre, it would be a stretch to claim that she defied the "predisposition" of her culture and social standing. One's sexual orientation is not predetermined, preconditioned, or predisposed for them. You might as well suggest that children with same-sex parents are "predisposed" to become homosexual, which is both wrong and dated. Whether your prejudice is based on ignorance is not particularly relevant.
>>557205993>loses her appetite for mushrooms after meeting myconidsyou feed her the rare and mysterious noblestalk just for her to puke it out? imagine the look on this poor guy's face
>>557206253>homosexual deep gnome slaves or lesbian noble drow daughtersI would say the races are genetically predisposed for this.
>>557206196canon & they're all in a happy pollycule>>557206253wordslop
Ugh he's arguing with himself again
>>557206196Dekarios is the only acceptable one.
>>557206253> Viconia in BG2 is explicitly not a lesbian, and although House DeVir is not as prestigious as House Baenre, it would be a stretch to claim that she defied the "predisposition" of her culture and social standingIn fact this is Viconia’s life story.
>>557206253>No culture, even one as rigidly matriarchal as the Lolthite drow, "predisposes" its members to a sexual orientationthis is so factually wrong and ignorant, just think of IRL religions like islam and or catholicismstop taking Ls, words have meaning stop twising them, and this is only tangentially related to the gamefind yourself a hobby like, actually playing this goddamn game>>557206196>Silverboughfunny how I never really remember anything about Karlach's backstory
Being a incel and tranny go hand and hand A real female drow would be disgusted
>>557205374It's multiple female lovers in the past, and Minthara comments on the attractiveness of a couple male characters which means she appreciates male beauty which means she's bisexual with a preference for women, but not lesbian. She exclusively dates women thus far in her life, but still uses men for eye candy at the least or sex at the most. Also Minthara never liked Orin, it was all the tadpole that made her worship Orin. She says Orin was frightening when they first met and not in the sexy way. We do not know whether Orin took advantage of her altered state of mind or not, it's entirely possible, but it's also possible she didn't since Orin never expresses sexual interest in anything just murder interest, however Minthara's line where she laughs and says "Jealous? You needn't be, I [only want to kill her now]" does imply that their relationship was more than just tadpole thrall mook stuff. The rest of what you said is true.
>>557206997Didn't read, can you post more Halsin porn
>>557206742Viconia is a big outlier among lolthsworn since she cared about her male brother enough to go against her house. All of Drizzt's sisters were fine with him being sacrificed as a third son before an unfortunate stabbing accident removed one of his big bros.
>>557206997why did you prompt ai art of halsin getting pegged by karlach and what would minthara bg3 think of that?
Why does he act like he cares about sexuality, he modded Viconia to be bi and probably thinks shes a lesbian just cause female drow. Add Morrigan from DA or Cassia from RT to that list.
>>557206795>real-life religions out of nowhereOff-topic drivel. You seem to have taken a liking to reporting posts you dislike but we're actually discussing Minthara and drow culture here, which is more on topic than your shitposts.
>>557207275Halsin was very clearly laying on top of Shadowheart and Karlach’s point of entry was ambiguous. That very well could have been an image from Shart’s own dreams considering how openly infatuated she is with both characters.
>>557207417is minthara a lesbian?
>>557207528no I'm pretty sure that was pic of halsin getting pegged you gay lord
>>557207537Yes. All available evidence - in game, in the setting - point that way and only that way.
my lesbian
>>557207692I disagree
>>557206997You never include Mintharra in your long essays about video game lesbians in /crpgg/ you know the fags there will call you out for your bullshit
>>557207915You don’t actually, you know the truth but you want to ban evade and shitpost. Ironic after all your Valentines Day projections, the holiday seems to have brought out the worst in you. I’ll spend the weekend thinking of the women I’m with. You’ll spend the weekend rationalizing women that dream of others. Really sums this situation up perfectly.
i hope that all the companiosn will have a poly path from now on
>>557206105Is there a mod that allows you to random NPCs? Or is this just an extension of some party limit unlocker?
>>557208096>>557206997Why do you forget her?
>>557207417see this is what you do everytime someone proves you wrong, greentexting, projecting and trying to smear toher peoples opinionI'm not the one phoneposting after being banned tho>discussing Minthara and drow culture hereyeah and you've been proven wrong times and times again>>557208297https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/1646it was posted a few days ago here, been using it since and its based, also the spell ignores party limit size so you dont have to download that other one
>>557208202sure whatever ok happy for you
four wizard party is pretty easy so far. might respec astarion from enchantment to necromancer tho. enchantment subclass is basically useless
>>557208223please please please Swen make the hot white female elf with short hair into poly with a male lizard
>>557208887so do you like go to sleep every 4 encounters or so?
>>557208989i long rest practically every one or two encounters
>>557208887I've never done enchantment, what does it even do
>>557208450NTA but that one doesn’t even have a name, you just assume it was written by them. They aren’t the only person to play and enjoy any of those games or to talk about romances here. But you’re so devastated about losing the argument that you see your hated foe everywhere now. It’s also perfectly sensible to leave Minthara out of posts like that, even though she fits, just to avoid the attention of liars who always derail the thread.
>>557206742Viconia didn't defy Lolth with her sexual orientation. Her sexual orientation didn't magically change once she reached the surface and was forced to shed everything culturally familiar. You are to be treated as a troll from now on, because you're too intelligent to repeat the "innocent" mistake of not knowing what the terms "lesbian-coded" or "predisposed" carry.>>557207537No. Which is what Mintharafag has repeatedly stated, but illiteracy and hypocrisy are commonplace here. It is fair to infer that Minthara has a preference for women given her history, culture, and social standing. It would be stereotyping and reductive to reduce her to a sexual identity label - much like it would be stereotyping and reductive to say that Shadowheart, Astarion, and Minthara are nothing more than two words that describe their alignment.
>>557209225so we both agree that minthara is not a lesbian and is in fact bi and attracted to men such as gale & astarion?
>>557209204You wrote it fatty, you bragged about how you leave clues like talking about Suvi
>>557209119uh, interestingwhat are the other's subclasses? doesnt it become a little boring after a while? i need some melee class in my parties
>>557206997Thank you for being here and setting the record straight. The threads are lifeless without you.
>>557209702Minthara drinks gnome cum
>>557209501lae'zel is a bladesinger so i got some melee in there. bladesinger might be one of my favorite wizard subclasses now.also oops i was wrong about the charm. i think it can incapacitate too, which does make it better than the normal charm. still once per long rest sucks
>>557209409>Minthara is not a lesbianCorrect. This is explicitly the stance of Mintharafag (who is 99% of the time correct) and the one I agree with.>and is in fact biThis is reductive because it flattens sexual identity and treats all bisexual people (characters) as a monolith. Minthara likely has a preference for women. You can call it however you want. "Bisexual with a preference for women," as the namefag puts it, is an acceptable shorthand.

>>557210560Can it be Minthara with a penis instead
>>557206352He wouldn't linger on that for long anyway.
>>557206352
>>557210663Minthara is "playersexual," like every other romanceable companion. Gale wasn't groomed by Mystra. There is strong evidence that Astarion was sexually abused, and only subhumans like the swine would joke about it. These are the facts.
>>557208595Interesting. Are you on the latest patch? Any other mods? This was made before Patch #3 and multiple players reported issues with it, even if workarounds has been posted for some. Otherwise the concept is pretty good.>>557208887Why didn't you pick that one for Astarion in the first place? It's a great fit, especially that he also has unique interaction with the Necromancy of Thay.
Lae'zel's VA is streaming on twitch right now>>557211292why are you ban evading so much
>>557211292>Minthara is "playersexual," like every other romanceable companion.no she's bi, she explicitly shows attractions to both women & men that are not the player>Gale wasn't groomed by Mystrayes he was and if you think otherwise you're part of the problem>astarion rape blahblahblahyes he got sexually abused
Is it normal for the game to completely break apart when you enter the illithid lair under Moonrise Tower, after fighting Ketheric?I mean, from the moment I got inside this area, voicelines stop playing at random, cutscenes suddenly end mid-sentence, I stumbled on a bunch of cultists who entered dialogue, I convinced them not to attack me with a deception check and then mid-sentence from their response the fight started anyway... this is a mess, and I don't know if it's my game or just the game in general.
How can ones and zeroes have a sexual identity? haha none of it is even real lmao
>>557211437>Are you on the latest patch?bold of you to assume I actually bought the game, but there's a post in the comments about fixing it for patch 8I assume theres similar mods that are have actually been updated for patch 8 and feel more stable
>>557211458why you lyin

Reminder that Frog and Karl are the only ones who actually express physical attraction to you. Shadowheart only does so towards other characters, but never you. REALLy makes you think.
and you guys were afraid of /bgg/ dying before divinity releases lol
>>557211741You're a troll and should stick to trolling about how Minthara is "lesbian-coded" or "predisposed" to lesbianism, rather than pretending to be another poster.
>>557212206I would never let my fun house die. And it’s a nice place to test things before Divinity is here. We want to make sure the early days of that general are truly spectacular, to help set the tone.

>>557212415thanks Mr S I hope that it'll be as fun as bg3
>>557212206Its just been Mintharatranny having a meltdown
>>557211794No, that place sticks out like a sore thumb in terms of QA. I've seen far worse in other CRPGs but it's still a shaky experience in an otherwise functional game. First and foremost, the potential game-breaking bug with Chop. If I hadn't figured a solution out I wouldn't have had any option besides completing the location without saving. Then I had another seemingly game-breaking issue before entering the final room but a restart solved it. How will that play out next time? Nobody knows. If you have crashes or just general hiccups I'd lower some graphical settings, you can find performance and tweaking guides that go in detail how power hungry each one of them are.

I convinced him to let me take my pet kitty, then asked him if I should put him out of his misery, and killed him in combat. Nothing too weird or exceptional, other than his voicelines kept cutting off.

I originally wanted to spare him but, alas, I had no say in the matter. And believe me, going down and the game giving you a save unsuccessful message for all kinds of saving attempt feels game-breaking enough.

>>557214639No, I'm not that anon.Also yes, I had been getting the save unsuccesful message at points, and it stopped after I killed Chop.
>>557214984Swen said AI is based though
>>557214984I’m working on some AI music in the style of bard songs that focus on certain romances in Baldurs Gate 3, I think they’ll be a big hit here when they’re ready

Daily did it devote itself to its obsession with the namefag. Daily did it free itself from the tyranny of thought. All, in time, was lost to it - its opinions, its preferences, even its own character name. Upon the altar of its obsession, it placed the ultimate offering - its emptied mind. "I'm going to make a dragonborn and name him Gorion's Ward," it proclaimed, to the namefag's complete indifference. A thousand posts and more passed it in colorless gusts. And still, the namefag did not acknowledge their ankle-biter. "I threw a barrel at Minthara," it screeched, hoping to elicit any kind of response. "I'm also going to ascend Astarion!" And still, silence was its only answer. This hater of Mintharafag, unheeded despite its desperation, might yet have one more lesson to learn - that not of ignoring, but being ignored.

>>557222891>let me reload and get Wyll in here.You did convince Mizora with the Persuasion check to give you that unique Rapier, right?>Wyll is weak as shit and couldn't pull his weight even to throw potions around.How come? Don't you have the Potent Robes? That lasts until end-game! Warlock is a powerful class that - if built and equipped properly - can switch between melee and ranged on a whim and still remain very effective. Even if you just took Agonising Blast he should be a good Eldritch Blast machine. Warlocks also have mighty AoE (Concentration) spells (e.g Hunger of Hadar), so getting one going is a big help there as Myrkul is stationary.
>>557224339>You did convince Mizora with the Persuasion check to give you that unique Rapier, right?Yes, I did.>How come?Honestly, good fucking question. I, myself, am a Warlock, only I went Hexblade melee martial mode. I gave him the Potent Robes and geared towards going full blaster. But right now he's just too damn fragile, and even with those robes and 20 Cha he still doesn't pump out enough damage to offset how quickly and how often he goes down.But don't fret, because I just remembered something that will surely turn the tides of this battle!

You can also heal/haste/etc. your new friend and he lasts until next Long Rest!>But right now he's just too damn fragileAside from MA the Gloves of Dexterity (DEX to 18) helps a lot. Don't forget that Shield does not count as Armour, so you can equip one (for +2AC) on Wyll with little to no drawbacks! Elixirs can also help a ton, and make sure to utilize your potions and scrolls! People often forget about them.>>557225760Five and half years since the Early Access release and two and half since the retail. The final major patch, which gave people a reason to come back or finally start playing dropped 10 months ago. I can't tell how old this general exactly is but it's quite long-lasting as it is for a game like BG3.

>>557229968Shit happens. It's one of the most contested items for a while as it's so universally useful. E.g. Wyll (13 DEX) gets +2AC, +2 Initiative and +3 to Attack Rolls from it. That's major, and aside from Astarion all companions have 13-14 DEX.

So I'm trying to summon Lump but whenever I use the horn my character says he's dead. Last time I summoned him one of his ogre buddies died but he and the other ogre lived and I got the dialogue afterwards to convince them to extend our deal and fight for me again. Is he bugged out or what?
>Day 8 of Operation Alien Amphibian: the observed person still spends most of her day at the grindstone. We couldn't make sense of this.>>557232751Are you still in Act 1? Because the Horn doesn't work outside of it.
>>557232751Maybe he died inside after he lost his ogre friend.

Why aren’t there any Indians in Baldurs Gate?
>>557235376Guess they were too preoccupied with the Sub-Saharan Africans
>>557235376>>557235773Is there any difference? Browns are represented in the game.
>>557233458Weird. Are you sure he didn't succumb to some duration-over-time effect (like poison)? A leftover AoE spell could also cause a similar effect, though he needs to be in low HP in both cases. If I'm not mistaken they will come to collect their payment once you're in an area where you can leave the act, so it will be interesting to see if they show up or not.
>>557236182I wouldn’t be so irritated if there were some Hispanics or Arabs or Persians. But no. It’s always the big nosed, big lipped, slopped head giganiggers that look more out of place than the literal extraterrestrial.

>>557236249I summoned them for the spider matriarch, one of them died, but Lump and the other one were both fine at the end of it, nowhere near dead.
>>557236558
>>557237278>>557238946
>>557237623That area has some extreme vertical differences including a chasm you can shove the Matriarch into. I can't tell how the game despawns them after the dialogue where you can convince them but the default method seem to be that the NPC in question walks out of the players' sight and disappears. If that's the case here they might have fallen off and died due to the falling damage. I don't have a better idea but the said area is known for this, especially with those flammable spiderwebs. Report back once you hit Act 2 if they visited you to get their payment!
>>557238946I want this slutty halfling as a companion

You know you’re dealing with losers when the very idea of success is able to bewilder them. They treat tales of entrepreneurship like they’d treat tales of Santa Claus.
I am very smart and I respect women.
Gorion's Ward said:
>>557243970you are the biggest loser
>>557244195The way you lose arguments and obsess over your betters indicates you aren’t very smart after all. The way you’ll spend Valentines Day alone says perhaps you aren’t very nice to women either. Maybe you should work on yourself instead of shaming yourself.
Gorion's Ward said:Everything he writes is a lie. He hates women, lives on government disability and uses his fatbux to buy video games, is morbidly obese, and has never had sex before He will also never be a woman.
>b-b-b-but women!does he know that most anons in this general are gay
it's crazy that you can kill almost all of the moonrise tower inhabitants and it still won't turn hostile
>>557251235Moonrise is famed for this, although I'd don't recommend it for first-time players. It castrates the assault (no spoiler tag as Jaheira already mentions it during your second dialogue) and strips you from a grandiose battle. Otherwise the Tower is full of little pockets of enemies who (if separated properly, so closing doors and Minor Illusion is recommended) can be taken out group-by-group. Though all you need is one fuckup and things can easily get out of hand, with more and more enemies alerting others in a chain and thus creating a clusterfuck. This takeout strategy is good for novelty on your second, third etc. playthroughs or if you want to skip the babysitting the Harpers part but clearly not the intended way.
>>557251235Same with the ruined temple
>>557237464That is an opinion, possibly an emotionally charged one. But standards are not about emotions. Standards are not about me, or you, or anyone in particular. They hold everyone equally accountable.

Players (and most likely (You)) are sleeping on this helmet real bad. Probably because the silent assumption that it's Weapon Action requires Superiority Dices to function and thus exclusive to the Battle Master class. In fact none of this true. This my go-to gear with Minsc alongside the Mental Inhibition ring and it's wonderful. Everything is tailor-made on it for a Raging, high STR Barbarian who loves to get in the faces of foes and soften them up for spells from friendly spellcasters. Did I mention you can go down both (double down on INT/WIS/CHA or add STR/DEX/CON debuff) ways there with additional equipment? So you can fine-tune the setup depending on who you're facing? Feels good and feels Minsc, man.
>>557295340so why does it mention superiority dice?
>>557295340>can go down both (...) ways there I meant "either ways from there". The 1d4 Radiant damage is not part of the package, I just had a weapon equipped that grants it. Menacing Attack deals normal weapon damage plus Proficiency Bonus and the STR modifier is part of Weapon Action DC, so if you can reliably land hits you can expect a similar success with applying Frighten. That is unless there's a massive difference between the target's DEX and WIS but that's more of the exception than the norm.
>>557292126Disgusting toad
>>557296636
>>557296524same tooltip they used for the BM move
>>557296524Larian devs being lazy or inattentive. They cloned the Battle Master action on the helmet, unticked the checkbox to make it resource-free (otherwise the action would be greyed out for everybody who doesn't have a Superiority Dice) and called it a day. They couldn't be bothered to modify that one or two lines in the description to reflect the reality.

>>557306074Cute. As usual, the waifufags are the only posters left worth a damn.
>>557220073I wonder how different the stats would be if people knew beforehand what they were getting into. It was actually quite dirty of Larian to dump this on them so late in the game.
>>557309084literally nobody cares she's still the most popular character in the game
>>557308563Minthara fucks black guys.
>>557309084All the worst wokery comes into the game at the third act, which most people have never seen and never will. By putting it in the back and not on the cover they’re able to claim that their woke didn’t go broke. When you put it up front you get Concorde. Those Belgish are pretty sly. But not sly enough.
>>557309758The future is black and polyamorous, Minthara cuck. Cope.
shadowheart tells you in act 1 that she doesn't mind arrangements if you didn't talk to her enough that's on you for being cucked
My only hope is that Divinity will be blacker, gayer, and even more gnomish.
Bigoted, racist, unintelligent. They're not sending their best.

>>557309971the bg3 gnomes were fire we unironically needed more of those
>>557309861idk what line you're referring to but she also says she doesn't want to be a spare lover in act 2 if you're romancing other companions, and makes you break up with them to continue her romance.
>>557310109Not ALL cucks. But certainly the ones here.
>>557309084Only half of players have even left act 1. Most players have absolutely no idea what she's like in act 3. Shart's popularity is completely based on looks and initial impressions from act 1. Which tracks logically, since her competition is a green frog, a red devil, and an act 1 miniboss that 70% of players kill. Anyone judging superficially would of course go with her. The whole situation makes sense.
>>557310142I don't really wanna talk to you about shadowheart, shadowheartfag, go lose some weight
Mintharafan is known to be Guatemalan I thought
>>557310360iirc that stat mentioned the percentage of people who reached the conclusion of the romance arc in act 3. i don't have the pic saved, maybe someone else does.

>>557312023>>557311840Yeah, but not to the people we're talking about. Most gamers are ultra normie. The average bg3 player did not finish the game, did not even make it out of act 1 for that matter, played on story difficulty, has never touched anything dnd related before this, and said Shart was the hottest because she is the most conventional at a glance. And they don't even know Minth is recruitable, literally. Not that there's anything "wrong" with playing this way, I'm just saying it makes total sense why the romance statistics are what they are.

Which classes do best with a sword and board setup?
>>557326567
>>557326914Bard.
>>557326914You can use it for every martial or adjacent class but two-handers are generally a more impactful choice. If I had to name a class that actually needs a shield it'd be Cleric. Not being hit is important to get those Concentration spells going, plus they won't rely on their melee weapons due to their low/mediocre STR anyway. On top of that you can find equipment that benefits from misses, so that +2AC (and whatever extra the shield adds) could be especially useful. It's just a good system that makes sense.My other choice would be Paladin. Their starting equipment is actually sword (warhammer) and board, and while two-handers are popular to maximize their DPS the shield setup is definitely supported. Protection Fighting Style is decent way to use your Reaction, you also have Concentration spells to protect, your signature Aura of Protection only works if you're conscious, so we have plenty of reason to maximize your suitability. I also remember seeing an exclusive Paladin shield at the start of Act 2.
>>557326914Paladin.Their main damage source is Divine Smite, where most of the damage comes from its damage riders rather than weapon damage.Oath of the Crown is also pretty suited for sword and board due to some pseudo tank abilities.

>>557335805You didn't miss anything, these are their base prices. (The game sometimes doesn't adjust the price to your Persuasion value, so it needs to be put in your "cart" first to see it's real value. Not here though.) In other words the pricing of left is retarded.>Protecty SparkswallTo be fair you have to visit the Forge, find a way to the bridge, disarm like a dozen traps then open a chest to get it. Meanwhile the other only needs a visit to a trader. I guess it's a rebound item for those who skipped the Forge.

>>557345569It can feel like a form of hypocrisy or a character flaw, but it's actually consistent with her character growth. Had the Lae'zel you first met been commanded by Vlaakith to give her life, she would probably have done so unquestioningly. But the Lae'zel of Act 3 is not so zealous or eager to choose self-annihilation - she hasn't replaced Vlaakith with Orpheus, as detractors often claim. Karlach and Gale both have sensible reasons to sacrifice themselves, but Lae'zel is not really the self-sacrificing kind - not anymore.

Halsin showed me his magic trick...
>>557362917The real reward is Tharchiate Vigour (20 Temporary HP after each Long Rest) and that Astarion doesn't need to strike a deal to decipher his scars if you gave the book to him. With 14 CON he has 87 HP at level 12 and Arcane Trickster is by far the tankiest Rogue class while retaining their stealth abilities, so that 20 extra HP is not a bad bonus.>>557363420This is a pattern you're going to see throughout the game: whenever you're fighting with allies, always cancel ongoing AoEs and clean up hostile surfaces (Fire, Acid etc.) before finishing the battle! Throwing water battles or the Create Water spell if you have a slot to waste almost always do the job. The only notable exceptions are Electrified surfaces (Water and Steam) as they're beyond your control. Gust of Wind is the only solution that comes to my mind but it comes with other annoyances, so it's best to avoid these two in the said battles altogether. Babysitting dumbass allies is a not-to-hidden mini-game!

Look up optimization guides and performance tweaks, hopefully one that explains the impact of each setting separately.

I like our current Gale, he's like a nice, funny brother in my opinion but I sometimes wonder what it'd be like to have his EA+cut content version.

>>557397543Lower City is the most demanding map of the game and it's optimization is far from flawless. I'd bet my bottom dollar it's #1 in terms of draw calls by far! The high number of actors, the tightly packed buildings, the extra effects (like the 3 wizards in front of the Sundries rotating between spells 24/7) all add up in terms of power hunger. In other words even if you had no problems running the game anywhere yet Lower City can be the first that tanks your performance. Optimizing your settings to get the most seamless experience with the best visuals for your PC is something you should do anyway but it could also lead to crashes.>Regardless, the issue I have is with savefiles, I cant load into the save file even on minimal graphic settings.Now that's a bigger and separate problem. Is there anything that changed since the last time you were able to play just fine? Updated drivers, modified OC, critically low storage space on your system/game install drive, firewall or anti-virus update, anything? I take you've done the usual routine (verify game files, restart, try to reload a previous save that worked, rely on offline saves instead of cloud, move save files out of the directory if you have many etc.) already. You should also try to start the game with the other API (Vulkan vs DX11) than you've used until now. Both have a dedicated .exe file in the game's directory.

>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.Subhuman.
The sisters are not going to like hearing this, but I think an unromanced Astarion is a better character than a romanced one. This is because Astarion is forced to self-reflect on what freedom is worth to him and what his worth is, consider what kind of eternity he wants for himself once Cazador is dead, and what kind of person he really is. None of these requires love as a catalyst, and entangling himself with Tav risks turning their relationship into an emotional crutch that stifles both his growth and agency. How can he separate "this is what I want for myself" and "I owe this to my dear savior" once a Tav who romances him becomes part of the equation - allows him to bite her on a nightly basis, teaches him to trust again, kills his master for him, becomes the one he owes an eternal debt? None of the other romances have this dependency angle to them. Romance enriches their characters without feeling like a burden. Both unromanced Astarion and romanced Astarion have to wrestle with difficult questions at some point, but the former is free to do so without the weight of feeling like he manipulated someone or was manipulated. Unromanced Astarion doesn't have to bat his eyelashes at Tav or start another coy request with "Darling..." He would have nothing to offer. He would have nothing to bargain, plea, or promise. He would have nothing to owe. His independence would be the first step of his liberation. The sister will argue that romance is an important part of his healing process (missionary with him over his grave), and that Tav as a lover helps him confront his trauma, and that it is beautiful and poignant that way. Maybe she's right. Or maybe his trauma is a different matter altogether, and he can only truly start to face it, on his own terms, once he has earned his freedom. That wouldn't work in the context of the video game, because the sister needs her romance just like the other players (it's only fair).

How good is Swashbuckler? Is it a Rogue subclass you can legit take all the way to 12 and still feel like you're good in combat, or is it like the others and going further than 3-4 is legally considered a form of insanity?
>>557412607Karlach is pretty well written if you ask me, she's a veteran in one of THE most, well...bloody wars in DnD and yet she has managed to keep her whimsy and childish side intact, I really like that about her: she's not a jaded veteran soldier who doesnt feel anything anymore, she cares about the protagonist and the other characters, she's this fire of energy and positivity, and not even cold characters such the likes of Minthara take a liking to her because of this.Lae'zel has a good story going on, but it's kind of similar to Shadowheart's when it comes to its themes and undertones.Minthara is a half baked character, there's potential there but it will be forever bugged out.Shadowheart, we've been discussing her ad nauseam>>557413578Well but of course, most of BG3 have a dignity of their own even outside of romances. Matter of fact, Brostarion is a pretty wholesome interaction, especially a redeemed Durge with a Spawn Astarion. there's plenty of actual pictures of Astarion lying around the web for your posts btw
>>557412183No mods, drivers updated, verified cache, switched .exes, deleted bg3 and reinstalled it, bypassed launcher, tried to load with minimal settings. Nothing, save file is bricked. Honor run too, so I cant load previous save file. This is 2nd time it happened to me, back to back. First time I saved during alchemy, 2nd time game randomly crashed when I was in low city prison and didnt load anymore. Also about the 2nd save file, game thought Shadowheart is a Steelwatcher trying to arrest Karlach and when I killed Diva in camp game thought I killed Steelwatcher for the first time. Its 100% on Laurian part, shits scufed. Thankfully I do have a back-up but its all the way at the start of act 3 so a lot of progress lost.
>there's plenty of actual pictures of Astarion lying around the webAnd if you feel uninspired, you can always check reddit for epic meme content.https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/536025547/#536166239>I guess I've been wrong then, I saw a video about Neil talking about some "similarities" about him and Astarion, and I can kinda still see the resemblance.

>>557414413>game thought Shadowheart is a Steelwatcher trying to arrest KarlachThat is hilarious, never heard of this problem beforeBut exactly how and when does a Deva appear in the camp, is that related to stealing stuff in the Temple's basement? Seems like something weird got triggered
>>557414413also have to note that both involve off-hand monk setup, where I had Astarion have nothing in main hand and the staff in the off-hand. Crashes happened after it got removed (first time by me, 2nd by getting into jail).
>>557414906>>557414413but yes, Honour mode is cool and all on paper but I'm also very skeptic about it since we have these random, game breaking bugs so I'd rather play with a Honour mode ruleset without the single save file, thank you very much
Minthara X Wyll
>>557414002It's good enough. BG3 is an easy game. You don't have to optimize that much, or cheat like the attention-whoring swine. Dip into Hexblade if you want to be fancy.
>>557414002On paper Rogue is the weakest class and Swashbuckler should be it's weakest subclass (alongside with Arcane Trickster) as both Assassin and Rogue is considered better in general. In practice, however, I'm satisfied with my pure Arcane Trickster Astarion. He carries his weight in battle, he allows me to try a different playstyle than I usually run, his spellcasting (mostly through scrolls) opens up interesting party compositions and he makes good use of my magical arrows. All in all there's no "unplayable" class in the game, even the "worst" ones might just feel underwhelming compared to others. If you build and equip your character at least decently you shouldn't hit the wall anywhere unless you play on Honor. If you have a cool Swashbuckler concept in your mind go for it!
>>557415421
>>557414891>hen does a Deva appear in the camp, is that related to stealing stuff in the Temple's basement?Yeah, temple curse. My ass thought it would be a good idea to trigger the curse in camp but THAT MOTHERFUCKER won initiative roll somehow and made a run through half the camp TO MY GOD DAMN DOG and killed it. When we killed him I got the "investigate steelwatchers" quest popup. So my timeline decided that Scratch was an anchor being and corrupted itself refusing to load.

jaheira sighing
Imagine it’s Valentines Day and you have a great plan for showing Shadowheart how much you care. A bouquet of Night Orchids, dinner of her favorite foods, a new kitten, and a midnight swim. But you round the corner and find that Shadowheart already has a Valentine - big dick Halsin. His tongue is in her mouth and she’s sucking in dutifully, caressing it with her own, swallowing all of Halsin’s manspit. You try to make words but only a sound comes out. She knows you’re there with your stupid flowers and she couldn’t care less. She gets a handful of Halsin bulge, and you know it right then - Halsin will fuck Shadowheart just as she has dreamed REPEATEDLY OVER AND OVER…even while she was with you. “Meow” you hear. Looks like for Valentines Day you get the kitten, but Halsin? He gets the pussy.Happy holidays, cucks.
>>557416880I think that's a solid pick>>557417045His relationship with Minthara would be really funny. I don't know how to feel about him and Astarion though, I feel like they'd be at odds more often than not.

>>557413578imo playing an evil character and ascending Astarion is the only path I've played that felt satisfying. Romancing him as a good character with the whole "I can fix him" mentality just felt so slimy and manipulative. I couldn't even justify why my good character would even romance him without it starting from a place of objectifying him.And then it still feels unconvincing that the spawn ending would be something he would willing choose without coercion from the player character. There should have been a points system at least so it feels like the choice to ascend or not would come from him. Meanwhile playing as an evil mess of a durge + enabling Astarion's ambitions just feels way better and more natural
>>557415998He wouldn't have a natural eye left if he could take the eye surgery. He already lost one and the replacement is magical anyways.>>557416759>WyllThey have more in common than you'd think first. Their personality is also compatible and every party could use a flexible (half-)caster.>Lae'zelHe's an avid pursuer of knowledge and a Githyanki is a treasure trove for him. Plus no matter how conceited wizards are a strong martial on their side could do wonders for their survivability.>ShadowheartAnother one he can relate to on multiple accounts, and a divine magic user leaning towards healing to top it all. They don't get along as seamlessly as you'd assume but Gale would see the value in her.
>>557416759Honesty don't know. Wyll seems the friendliest with Gale thats about it. Same with romance, nobody matches him.
>>557418227I wouldn't call it a "person."

That is to say, feel free to slop up the companions, cheat your way to level 20, or romance Lae'zel with an ugly midget or dragonfreak. No one cares.

Keep in mind Shadowheart doesn’t just demand that you let her fuck Halsin, she demands he be included in group sex. She wants to force you to eat Halsin’s cum from Shadowheart’s pussy - which could really be called Halsin’s pussy if we’re being honest about it. She wants you to see and hear it. She wants you to try and lay with her so she can deliberately give her ass to Halsin without him even asking even after she told you that she doesn’t do that and even that she wasn’t a sexual person. The Drow twins pair off as Drow twins do. Shadowheart obviously goes with Halsin and does anything he wants and I mean anything. Where does that leave you? Alone, just a passive observer going with the flow. And it’s flowing right out of Shadowheart’s ass.
>>557420806This is an elf/human/tiefling game
>>557416759Shadowheart, Lae'zel, Wyll. If Minthara survives, Shadowheart, Minthara, Lae'zel. He'd probably romance Shadowheart.Gale is the only MC who'd be able to have everyone alive by the end
>>557421303Why'd you bring Halsin there if you didn't want to include him?
Favorite class, the one that is "literally you"?
l'oreal frog
>>557421303just say no?
>>557421467Shadowheart indicates that she has dreamed of Halsin, more than once, at the brothel. This indicates it happened before and independent of any player choice. It indicates that she is still ready and willing to eat Halsin’s hairy asshole at the first opportunity. Literally the only choice you have is whether she tells you at the brothel or keeps it hidden from you until you’re on cottage and she sends you to town for supplies every time a messenger bird comes by. She probably gives him your Night Orchids as a little inside joke.
>>557418413>And then it still feels unconvincing that the spawn ending would be something he would willing choose without coercion from the player character.And Shadowheart wouldn't spare the Nightsong on her own, if she hadn't met the player character and been influenced by them. That can hardly be called coercion. A character arc is about change - letting go of preconceived notions, learning from past mistakes, heeding the advice of those who do care about you. Astarion doesn't actually want to ascend - he just mistakenly believes that it represents his means to freedom. Which is why he's thankful if you talk him out of it. As usual, Mintharafag understands the character better than most.
anyone here ever use the modding toolkit to make custom stuff? I'm trying to make a custom class but this shit is completely foreign to me. I just tried testing the basic setup of it but it caused my game to drop fps and then crash from a vulkan error and I couldn't really say why. maybe I set up the path for the files incorrectly? or maybe I somehow made the mod file too large by saving the wrong stuff into it, no clue! any tips would be appreciated
>>557421612>not L'Aézel.One (1) job!>>557421536Not necessarily favorite and especially not literally me but I'm glad Monks finally got some love. I've been wanting to play one since forever and BG3 is probably the best game to do it.You can rightfully say they're OP thanks to some of Larian's 5e rule interpretations but they're also very well-supported by unique items and their class dialogues are decent to good as well.
>>557421536I'll be honest, I've been having a fucking identity crisis for a week straight over this question.

Why do people say that letting Shart stab Dykesong automatically ends the romance? You can still romance her and if she spares her parents in act 3 you literally the same same exact ending as her Selunite version where you settle down with her parents. I acutally thought it was the better "redemption" route for her.
Another valentine alone
>>557421953>>557418413I know Serana is a vampire but Astarion is his own character you obese whale
>>557423772because to embrace shar is to discard tav
>>557422213Nobody here makes their own mods, you should ask reddit or something
>>557423776>tattoosShe’s not alone, she has 3-4 of Wyll’s kids running around there somewhere. They’re her life.
>>557424005I would rather die
>>557423772>Why do people say that letting Shart stab Dykesong automatically ends the romance?She outright says that you can still fuck her but actually love is off the table.So you're in a sort of orbiter state in Act 3 until she frees her parents and it magically defaults back the Selunite romance or she keeps you as a fuckbuddy while being head Sharran.Essentially, the entire romance is put on ice until the end of her quest in Act 3.
>>557424109This general is for Shadowheart incels
>>557421953The difference to me is that there's the option to let Shadowheart decide what to do, with the nightsong points systems making her decision feel more like her own choice, even if it's not the choice she would have made without the player character. I do want the option for Astarion to grow and change as a character. But I don't like how it was handled that whether he ascends or not is determined by a single dialogue option solely at the control of the player. It makes no sense that it's possible that my character could hype up the ascension ritual for half of act 2 and into act 3, only for a single persuasion to get him to change his mind at the last second. It feels like I'm taking away his own agency
I'm now realizing just how fucking in over their heads Aradin and his party were.
>>557423862One of the books in the Gauntlet of Shar library literally says that love is forbidden by Shar, so no one should be surprised by this.
Minthara got tattoos too...
>>557424468but shes a pure lesbian
>>557424415almost as if shart fans are willing to ignore or even mod out entire aspects of shart huh

broke my oath, should i pay the jewbreaker knight or should i just keep this subclass. undead powers sound kind of cool.
>>557424807Sure its got unique lines to it
>>557424807it sounds cool but the abilities are ass
Reminder that it's always worth letting Ethel take the eye of a companion you aren't going to use, because you get this until rest>>557424807Keep the subclass if you want to do better personal damage, drop it if you want to play tank/support

Honest thoughts on incel drow men?
>>557425692one of the ugliest tav I've ever seen
>>557425692They should just go to the surface, human women love drow men.
>>557425692So desperate they seek abuse from those who should love themI pray for them, as I pray for Githyanki women
>>557426030cute frog
>>557425692I want a incel male drow bf
>>557425328I let her do it to my Tav because the hag eye looks cool as fuck. Fits my Warlock.
>>557425692I was really confused how you could have both Karlach in your party and the Infernal Robe but now I realize it's the same fucking model as the Selune robes
>>557426545A extra encounters mod also adds infernal robe as a drop from a hard early game fight
>>557426545Yep. I did a little oopsie on that playthrough, as you can imagine.
Happy Ballentyme's day, bgg.
>>557421303Shut the fuck up incel troon nobody's reading all that shit
>>557424468Obviously there’s a difference between a cultural decoration denoting her dedication to her family and people vs some shit fart tribal mall tattoos up and down what used to be a woman’s arm. women are the most absurd people alive, given femininity only to throw it away.
>>557426971you too nonny
>>557427210Have sex, incel. Then kill yourself.
>>557427210
>>557427210you respect women right
>Shadowheart’s pussy - which could really be called Halsin’s pussy if we’re being honest about it.so because he had sex with her one time, he "owns" her now? rather a misogynistic view of sex from someone who claims to respect women. then again, i'd expect no better from a tranny freak. transgenderism is just an expression of bitter incel misogyny. you hate women and view them as just dumb useless fuckholes to be fucked dumb and useless by big strong men. black men. so you become the woman, because you too want to be a stupid worthless slut fucked braindead by big man cock. you hate women and you hate yourself. black men.
she speaks more fondly of your night with halsin than she does the normal romance scene and that says quite a lot
"Women respecters" when a woman doesn't want to fuck them:

>You don’t dream about sex with other men when you’re supposed to be loyal to another. I’ve had a lot of lovers and none of them have ever disrespected me so much that they blatantly dream about other people. And you know this. Sharts have to lie to cope, they’re like a battered wife. No he really loves me even though he beats me. No she really loves me even though she prefers Halsin. Same song.Raph should have said that in act 3 instead of singing
>>557428235>christcucks try not to insert themselves everywhere>challenge level: IMPOSSIBLE
>>557428235Ralph has more sex than him
kinda crazy that he still cries about shadowheart, we're 6 months away from bg3's third birthday and he's still ranting about halsin
>>557428769You understand we all realize it's you, right?
I want to play and post about the game, but this general is actual cancer
>>557429056I'd have shot myself yesterday if I spent the last 3 years posting cropped porn & halsin erotica
>>557429056It’s actually me I’m NTA.
:)
Quit scrolling, say something nice about the Blade.
>>557429582Gross
>>557429806agreed, fruits like you are gross
>>557429253We gotta wait until a new rpg with romance comes out to make him fuck off
>>557429758Wyll is really likeable, and I don't understand the hate for him.
>>557430585>Wyll is really likeablethere's literally nothing to like about him
>>557430410Those have come and gone. The next big one will be Divinity early access obviously, allegedly coming 2026-04-01. We’ll get our first look at development, some minor plot trailers, voice cast with 1-2 obvious waifu candidates, then EA. And where will all this be discussed? Right here in the Larian general.
>>557430663>>557429758He is the archetypal "good guy sworn into bad deal" that has existed since FF4's CecilHe's the Paladin Protagonist Unironically, if Wyll was white then every anon ITT would be going "why aren't you Wyllmaxing"
>>557429758His first voice actor was better
>>557430757
>>557430907gale is white and a goody two shoes and I can't stand him either this has nothing to do with him being black, he's just a charisma vacuum with a terrible story that leads to nowhere in act 1, nowhere in act 2 and nowhere in act 3
>>557430757he will be crying about Shart in the Divinity general
>>557431176that would be hilarious and will definitely happen
>>557431089>Gale is a goody two shoesGale approves of you selling Shadowheart back to Viconia, stays with you if you're doing an "evil" playthrough, and will become the God of Ambition worshiped by Red Wizards if you let himWyll's only flaw as a character is Larian not introducing a Nightsong Points system like Shadowheart has or not having a dialogue option like "Let Wyll decide"
>>557431492>Gale approves of you selling Shadowheart back to Viconiagale disapproves of that
>>557427965Take Astarion with you if you can. He has unique dialogue if he gets blown up there then resurrected.>>557429253Pay it no mind Anon! Just post about whatever you want about the game without expectations! It might be stimulating to like-minded posters and your posts will surely contribute to the general anyways.>>557430585I agree, though Wyll's problem is not likeability but being bland. And that's a cardinal sin in DnD and CRPGs in general. I also think few players give him a fair shot (as in enough screentime) to begin with.
>>557431492>Wyll's only flaw as a character is Larian not introducing a Nightsong Points system like Shadowheart has or not having a dialogue option like "Let Wyll decide"oh sure that would totally fix everything wrong with his quest & character ''arc'' LOL Please.
>>557431917Post wrist
>>557431796will be horrible
>>557431492>Gale approves of you selling Shadowheart back to ViconiaHe does not, i think he only has a quib when you actually go through with it that goes like>our loss, our gainthough it seems to more stem from him trying to cope with the fact that you just betrayed Shart like that.
>>557431953Sure but what does that have with wyll being trash?
>>557431796will be kino
>>557432104>though it seems to more stem from him trying to cope>no disapproval>he says you've gained a strong tactical advantage from having Sharran forces at your disposalYeah, someone here is coping
Thoughts on Wizard supremacists?
They should've just kept evil Wyll from the beta.
>>557429758I like his clothes. I tend to pick them off his corpse.
am I dumb for thinking Karlach is also a boring goody two shoes? One of my favorite things about raiding the grove was not having to slog through her and Wyll's dialogues for the rest of the game
>>557433865Nah she's obnoxious as fuck. Can't stand her moralizing bullshit especially if you know the lore behind Soul Coins but you can never call her out on being the retarded hypocrite that she is. I off her in every playthrough now.
>>557433865Nah, she grates on my nerves too.
>>557433865Sounds like another durge. You’ll be held accountable for your uncontrollable gayness, in this life or the next.
>>557433865she has good moments in act 3 but her story is pretty weak overall and I say that as a karlachfag
>>557434049That, an her annoying fucking voice when she’s trying to act tough and angry. Pure cringe.
>>557434095I'm just trying to farm that Astarion approval, so yes you're right
>>557433865no /bgg/ hates Karlach more than Shaddy
>>557434584I like them both, minthara & wyll are the companion I don't care about
>>557434410sounds like you just want to be an asshole
it feels like there was supposed to be an evil karlach route where you convince her to eat the soul coins and embrace her devil powers more, but it just never made it into the game
>>557434584Aw, I love Shads. We aren’t all a bunch of insecure cucks.
>>557434912karlach is blatantly unfinished yeah
>>557434992Guess that makes you a secure cuck. Remember your flowers, she’ll need them after she gets done letting Halsin sweat on her like some hairy dick pig
>>557434912I wish the soul coins actually DID SOMETHING and had an ACTUAL DRAWBACK to their use. Apart from killing someone who could never hope to salvage their soul, which is not much of a downside.
>>557435173The S word triggered you lol
>>557435173Or I could just tell her no, and she’ll respect my wishes.
>>557435173can you stop fantasizing about halsin for 5 seconds?
>>557435278No one would mind if she got powers by stomping on lemures instead, but soul coins are just as irredeemable.
>Karlach mentionedHey soulja how ya doin pal ave i mentioned you're my mate soulja ayo FUCK YEAH soulja ayo gods i wanna ride ya til i see the stars soulja never read a book in me life soulja isn't it convenient i'm both a sure virgin waifu and a massive turboslut so there's never any conflict ay ay ay soulja did you have a good relationship with your father me neither soulja
I play Shadowheart and fuck Halsin.I play Halsin and fuck Shadowheart.
I like Karlach more than the other girls
It appears her superiority has led to some controversy.
you know it doesn't really make sense that monks and barbarians and bladesingers aren't allowed to wear armor, since in 5e all the armor types are very explicitly balanced to end up with the same ac anyway.
lohse>karlach>shadowheart>sebille>llaezel>minthara
>>557436232chuds can't handle some whimsy
>>557436309The class fantasy for those is to punch or stab things while running around naked, and barbarians can wear medium armor anyway.
>>557436232Karlach reminds me a bit of that elf girl from the Dragon Prince and I can't help but like her
>>557435921Yep, you can have this one right here, oh mighty BOOAL.
characters can't ever be in a good mood, because that upsets the bitter and jealous 4chuds who ruined their lives by wasting it on this hellsite. 4chuds want everyone to be as miserable as they themselves are.
>>557437081how's your asshole feeling after she gave you the ol' spicy finger?
>>557437081Turns out we are the true sharrans.
having a post history on 4chan should be grounds for an immediate mental illness diagnosis

thread question: who has the most mentally ill fans?
>>557437681which character has the most downloaded really mod
>>557437081Yeah, no. Stop projecting.
>>557437681Minthara
>>557437681minthara/shadowheart (same character) by farastarionsisters are a distant second, followed by laezel schizos in general

Yeah, I'm that big sweaty dick pig your mama warned you about.
>>557438237gortash pls go
>>557438139Can you keep your homoerotic cuck fantasies to yourself, please? I’m trying to eat here.
everyday the exact same posts from the exact same schizosif this is what bg3 breeds idk what kind of basket case divinity will summon
>>557438168he still loves Shadowheart more than Manthara
>>557434584The only companion I don't care for is Minthara. Everyone else to me seems an excellent companion as far as rpg companions standards go. Only thing I lament is how some of them clearly got shafted in terms of how much their personal quest matters and is involved throughout the game.Also all of the female companions have the same process of "works for someone they trust and idolize > discover they were being fooled all along > change towards a new, better path" which is kind of funny.>>557435278I mean, I think the exact same with the damn tadpoles. There's just no drawback at all and clearly whatever they were supposed to do beyond buffing you got left out.
>>557438396He will get cucked by the hot female elf AND ruin that general also with his inceldom.
>>557438647the better path is my cock
>>557438429
>>557438647All the bg3 companions are victims of abuse with a harsh authority figure looming over them. They all idolize somebody besides Astarion. 10/10 writing Larian
>LaezelAbused>ShadowheartAbused>GaleAbused>AstarionAbused>WyllAbused>KarlachAbused>DurgeThe Abuser.
durge companion durge companion
>>557439395
>>557439085I don't think Gale fits that description, it's not like Mystra was ever authoritative towards him about anything until he, you know, turned himself into a fucking country-devastating nuke for no reason. Wyll also doesn't idolize anyone except maybe his own projected image as the Blade of Frontiers, and that's more like he wants to live up to the character he's made for himself.
>>557438396This general is and always has been the janny’s doing. A SFW image showing no erogenous zones is treated like porn, yet Astarion’s bare ass meets no resistance, just as that same ass once offered no resistance to the intrusion of a certain boney finger. Discussion of the game’s characters and their potential romantic pairings is silenced, discussion of anons is allowed and even encouraged. Behind every rough town you’ll find a corrupt or lazy sheriff. And /vg/ might as well be Farmington.
>>557439575>goddess you worship who's your former lover tells you to kill yourself if you to try to redeem yourself>not abuse>wyll's father>not a harsh authority figure
>>557439575She's a goddess of course she had power over him. She even tells him to kill himself. Wyll idolized his dad and then his dad was pissed at him for making a pact with Mizora.
Gale was groomed by Mystra.
>>557439805Mystra is a groomer facts
who was wyll abused by? he signed a contract so it wasn't abuse
>>557439970Diddystra
>>557439736>>557439778But Wyll never told his father why he pacted with Mizora, from his father's perspective, he just went out to do some stuff one day and when he came back his teenage son had sold his soul to a devil and could no longer be trusted with being anywhere near his responsibilities as a duke. Wyll tried to tell him why and Mizora didn't let him.
diddy epstein ahh media
>>557440262frfr
>>557439996It was signed under duress
It was signed under Sharess' Caress.
>>557439736>>557439778>Wyll: I miss my father, I haven't seen him in years :(>Anons: OMG WHY DO YOU IDOLIZE HIM SO MUCH??
>>557439996Certain people aren’t really sentient and can’t give informed consent
anons can't understand the concept of a black man being a father
>>557440250Ok but that doesn't change Wyll idolizing his authoritative father.>>557440413he literally did though?
>>557440546>>557440546>>557440546
neither can blacks. add it to the list of things they can’t understand, right next to silence
>>557430757>Right here in the Larian general.There is no "Larian general." There's only /bgg/ - Baldur's Gate general, and pesky parasites and trolls like you that treat it like a cesspool. The mask is off, and there's only ugliness behind.
>>557440574Idolizing implies admiring to an extreme and unrealistic degree. Wyll just simply understands his father worked his way from the bottom, has become a powerful figure, and is generally competent and well-intentioned. He doesn't put him on a higher pedestal than what he is the way every other companion (minus Astarion) does their respective authority figures, he just misses him because he's his dad but also understands his position means he can't get close to him again or he'll put a lot of people in danger.
