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: >>572891052

>>573490215>shart >gayYou think she couldn't get more disgusting but then the ugly whore surprises you
>>573490215You claim to love Shadowheart, but you stripped her naked, put a leash on her, and called her a dog you take for a walk (1). You then claimed you loved Pea even more than her (2). I just think that's interesting. Your kind is incapable of caring about a character. Your kind only loves performative care and dishonesty.(1) https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/571273721/#571865365(2) https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/572891052/#572996283

>>573493148Thank you for posting beauty.>>573493618I like posters who care about the game, and I dislike shitposters that make a mockery of it. More than anything, I dislike hypocrisy. So don't position yourself as one of the last few Shadowfags in this dying general when you're nothing but the lowest of the low, a dead companion shitposter.
>>573496164Ah, but I am a true Shadowheartfag.For you see, no matter what I do, I always reroll and design my character around her. I make randoms not meant for her, but they never stick. Raven being the only one that stuck, because the idea of being a storm sorc in the Hells with Karls was cool. But even that fades in time, and all that remains is Shadowlove.

>>573503003The game's recommendations are reasonable if you're new. You don't need to multiclass, you don't need to min max. Start on the middle difficulty and if it's too easy or hard you can change it. bg3 does a superb job of being accessible to people who are new to crpg. You don't have anything to worry about once you get a feel for which stat determines the accuracy/difficulty of what your class wants to do. Welcome to the game of the decade....so far...

The namefag-obsessed pasta traces its origin to the parasite being mindbroken by Mintharafag (1). It has spammed that garbage in every thread since, just as it has spammed garbage "content" for nearly three years now. There's no value to it, and it only signals that there aren't enough human posters left who care to report it.(1) https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/553545974/#553732537>>573510126>>573510404>>573511098Stop posting worthless off-topic garbage.

>>573511708uh oh stinky
>>573511412Short races are disgusting to play with. There's a reason why Larian avoided them as companions and why they're among the least played races.

>>573512756>can't get gangbanged by half the goblin camp
>>573512553physician heal thyself, same for dead companions!
>>573511910No shit. Everyone knows that already. That is not a point of contention. You don't HAVE to keep engaging with the parasite when it starts to cycle through its favorite time-wasting topics - the non-character, the lack of short or freak races among the companions, its degenerate fetishes. You could just start a discussion. Preferably something we haven't beaten to death already.
>>573513610
>>573513610Name three things you like about Inwe that are non-physical.
>>573513745you ever wonder what this guy does when he's not posting schizo essays here?
I get why people clown on the ReallyShadowheart mod author but I do like the way the mod makes it take longer to raise her approval. She gets way too friendly way too fast normally.
>>573513915>She gets way too friendly way too fast normally.that's an issue among all the companions, they become best friends with you way too fast and it's really hard to lose their approval i feel like larian was afraid that people would miss on companion & romance events if they progress too fast or something
>>573513898Watching gore probably
>>573514045Yeah but characters like Wyll, Karlach, and Gale are normally pretty friendly no matter what their approval is. Lae'zel stays stand-offish throughout Act 1 even with high approval until you go through the creche. Shadowheart is a bit of a cunt at low approval but odds are you never see her that way for longer than five minutes especially if you save her in the tutorial.
>>573514284that's fair>>573514106grim
>>573513610Based Realms Restored enjoyer. Turning Asian women into Nordic goddesses is one of my favorite changes
>>573514775idiot thats not modded
>>573515041retards that DL realms restored don't give a shit about bg3 or larian
>>573514775Yeah, she's not modded. It's literally just an elf face 1, with the lightest "green" wood elf skin tone + her beautiful purple eyes. I guess she looks unique when compared to the typical BG3 NPCs because they just made her really pretty for some reason.
Inwe is ugly as shit
>>573514793cute
Mintharafag said that female characters with tattoos are trashy whores except Minthara because hers are classy
>>573515041>>573515361She doesn't have face paint on the wiki image, so I thought RR added them. You're right, she stands out from most other female characters by being very attractive (prettier than Shadowheart)>>573515197I have combat mods like Combat Extender and UNSO installed. I also don't want ugly brown people in my game
Minthara has a man's face
>>573515917He hates women expect for this chosen waifu, average incel
>>573513745I still stand behind these words. Unlike a certain shitposter here that has shifted its position endlessly to avoid taking responsibility, my position has never been anything but crystal clear. Pea is a stupid and ugly spammer. There is a pattern among those that condone that ugly spam. Those that joke about Astarion being sexually abused are subhuman. Of course, that doesn't mean I confess to posting pig gore - that was the work of a falseflagger.>What could possibly be the point of posting gore in the pursuit of exposing a less-than-human poster that lacks basic decency?You have never answered this. You will dodge answering again.>>573513765I don't particularly like Inwe. She expresses shame over never questioning Kagha, even though the latter did nothing wrong.
>>573513745the filename is a dead giveaway, its not him
>>573516165>let me use my real ip to post goreare you retarded? he clearly used his phone

>>573507642AI is made for this.
>>573516060>She expresses shame over never questioning Kagha, even though the latter did nothing wrong.Do you think Larian would have been more nuanced in regard to refugees if BG3 released in 2026?
>>573515949I think this image is from some version of the EA.>>573516060>even though the latter did nothing wrong.Kagha doesn't seem to agree.
>>573516060You would post pig heads too. Not psycho behavior btw
>>573516564shoot yourself
>>573516704no.
Humans are a blight on galactic purity.
>>573516581>the evil elturel duke(elite) is the reason the region is unstable and forced countless tieflings to fuck off to baldur's gate to gift the region to his powerful demonic overlords Zariel(gnomes teehee)nah it's fine it would have hit harder if kagha were a companion and had to meet more refugees in act 3 and maybe confront gortash about it or something but you know how bg3 is :3
>>573517370Do you mean to say that she would've been a better druid companion than Halsin and her personal story wouldn't feel as hollow past act II?
>>573517720I mean that describes a looooot of characters in bg3, you could pick kagha, alfira, barcus or zevlor, not add a single extra quest to their story like literally just don't add a damn thing yeah? just the usual companion lines for recruitment ect and they'd have a more compelling story & impact on the game & party than halsin, like kagha's letters in the epilogue got more personality than that faggot he's one of bg3's biggest failures by far
P*gschizo hates when people want npc companions however he would bust a nut if Kagha was one
Favorite Barbarian subclass? What are your thoughts on BT1/BT2 barbs anyway?
>>573518291>implying he plays bg3 ever since people found out how ugly his tavs look like and that he cucked gale to romance emperor
>>573518968I thought he hated the squid wtf
>>573518887Hot take but 8 Barb 4 Fighter. I essentially get four feats (de facto alert from Barb).
>>573519138he also hates attentionwhores but keeps spamming his garbage
>>573516408>that was the work of a falseflagger.LOOLLLLLLL
>>573516631>You would post pig headsYeah. From the game itself. That is not gore - or you would have to classify a roast suckling pig as gore. We ought to be precise in our accusations, lest we become as dishonest as a mind flayer or a falseflagger. We also ought to have standards. If posting a pig's head is "psycho behavior," then what do you call posing a dead companion like a hunting trophy? I think the latter is far more offensive.>>573518291Wrong. I have been consistent about why I believe it's a good thing Kagha remained a non-recruitable NPC.https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/549102717/#549564185>I like Kagha and find her admirable precisely because her motivation is to protect the grove. To then abandon it would betray her conviction. https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/571273721/#572193694>Kagha's allegiance is to the grove, and whether she gets corrupted or redeemed is entirely self-contained. Kagha is not tadpoled. She has no personal stake in the player character's quest. She does not actually care about the grand cause of stopping the Absolute - her entire rationale behind performing the Rite of Thorns is that she would choose the lives of the circle over everyone else. Hers is an isolationist worldview, not a heroic one. Of course, a slightly different version of Kagha would have been preferable to the sex pest (not exactly a difficult feat), but the point is that she would become another character at that point. And I happen to like the Kagha we got.
>>573523179Halsin isn't tadpoled either tbf
>>573523179What do you think of Shadowheart?
>>573523179Didn't read lol. cry about how this is worse than real life animals being set on fire

>>573526602she sneaks up on every playable character with a knife tho. this time she just gets to do it twice. free cutscene
>>573519138I do hate the squid. (Good job using an appropriate term instead of dignifying it with a fancy title.) It is an inhuman creature that mind-raped Stelmane and deserves no compassion. I mentioned above how a certain shitposter "has shifted its position endlessly" to avoid taking responsibility for its words. I was not referring to the parasite there, but it is displaying the same endlessly shifting dishonesty here. You could say there is a pattern. It claims I spammed my characters for months, despite the fact that I hate attention whores. It claims I romanced Gale, despite the fact that I only care about the female companions. The creature is so stupid that it can't even invent a coherent false narrative. I've been accused of being Mintharafag, the schizo behind Ilmatari, the ugly Tav shitposter, and many more. Tomorrow, the narrative will have shifted again. Anything to not talk about the game.>>573523468And that's precisely why it feels tacked-on and is a waste of a companion slot. Don't take it as a personal opinion. The writers are on record admitting the sex pest has no narrative role past Act 2.
>>573527067I found more. I never watched your vidoes because I am not into seeing animals die, I am not a psycho like you

>>573527628That is not the original post that the falseflagger copypasted. The original post was six days before that.https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/514369170/#514487293Notice how the link between that post and the post it replies to is clear, but that context is lost in the false flag you posted? And just like I predicted, you dodged answering my question again.>What could possibly be the point of posting gore in the pursuit of exposing a less-than-human poster that lacks basic decency?See, the issue with your kind is not that you lie constantly or that you're too stupid to come up with a more plausible false narrative. It's that you believe that even basic decency is performative, and that a poster who is vocal about standards must be the first to disregard them. But even if that virtue signaling were performative, should we not treat it as a baseline for honest discussion regardless? When you care so little for the characters - "bags of pixels," as the parasite calls them - that you can pose them like hunting trophies, how removed are you from joking about Astarion being raped? Personally, I'm not into these jokes. But your kind certainly is.
>>573497540Hell yeah.
>>573531823Astarion and Godey raped you
>>573528810barf
>>573533108We don’t need to know your name
>>573532369It casually jokes about rape but calls me a "psycho." The hypocrisy is lost on the subhuman. Up next is posting more dead companions and pretending this is the behavior expected of a well-adjusted individual.

ok after thinking about it for a while we clearly need a bg3 anime both fromsoftware & cdpr got one for their games, the bg3 show will be utter slop we can't be culturally relevant with hollywood garbage, we need high quality anime episodes that give a flashback to all the origins & main villains AND it should be written in collaboration with the bg3 writers

>>573539082You are the one dumping your namefag-obsessed pasta in every thread. That has nothing to do with BG3. You were the one that started silly thread drama that is best left to a general with a more sizeable population. That has nothing to do with BG3. You were the one that started hijacking the OP (1) to insert a link about the "tangentially related" HBO show, but now claim it will be "utter slop." That is the ever-shifting dishonesty I mentioned earlier. And finally, as part of your routine, you posted more off-topic garbage that is decidedly no more related to BG3 than Critical Role. In conclusion, you are a worthless parasite that isn't here to talk about BG3 and thus does not belong in the BG3 general.

>>573542267Many in the industry were also patiently waiting for BG3 to launch and be a Tortanic-level failure ($100+ million CRPG, LMAO good luck with that!). But to be fair, no one could have seen this level of stratospheric success coming.

>few of us are still here, but enough to remember all the weird stuff you did to stay in this thread"Weird stuff," such as condemning a subhuman swine that joked about Astarion being raped (1) (2) and still repeats the joke to this day, only "anonymously." One can imagine how basic decency would be "weird" to its indecent kind. A subhuman that is infamous for falseflagging as Mintharafag (3) or "joking" about hurting the voice actresses (4) (5) is devoid of shame or decency. Few of "us" still remain, let alone remember, but fortunately, the archive still exists. I'm used to providing the receipts. "Staying in this thread" is not a privilege that is earned. If that were the case, the human-shaped garbage that jokes about Astarion being sexually abused or Gale being groomed would have lost it long ago. Standards of decency are not concepts that become more relaxed over time as a place becomes much less active than it used to be. Standards are also personal, internal. What is acceptable to joke about and what is not. You either are a subhuman or not.(1) https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/499537401/#499560139(2) https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/536542557/#536623396(3) https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/503099073/#503226256(4) https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/498462673/#498549286(5) https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/498462673/#498554440

>>573576967It's just kinda gross to see men and women together man, I don't know what to tell you.But just objectively viewing the writing, Shadowheart would be bi, lesbian if her actress got a say in it.

The game answers all of these questions, there's no need to speculate.The game has everyone be playersexual, but if you use the evidence in the game to see what the character would be in the absence of playersexuality, the answers are generally pretty straightforward.One of the most important aspects of Gale's character is his romantic relationship with a woman, and in early access he hit on Shart. This does not mean he's not possibly bisexual, but there's no reason to assume he's anything but straight.Shart comments on both Karlach and Halsin being physically attractive, so she's obviously bisexual.Minth says Astarion and Wyll are physically attractive, and she mentions ex-gf's, so she's also obviously bisexual, with a preference for relationships with women.Astarion also comments on both sexes being physically attractive at various points, and his feelings towards Sebastien are obviously meaningful, so he's obviously bisexual as well, perhaps with a slight preference for men since none of the female victims standing right next to Sebastien got any special attention.Karlach also comments on both sexes being attractive, and in her internal monologue where she discusses sexual fantasies her fantasy involves male and female participants.If you turn down Lazy's advances in act 1, she has sex with someone else instead. The two people she is programmed to have sex with are Astarion and Wyll, so this shows a preference for sex with men.Jaheira was happily married and is still fond of her dead husband.Minsc obviously felt something for Dyneheir past his duty as her bodyguard.Halsin is a swinger and has sex with anyone, and is even implied to have had sex with animals.This analysis mostly coincides with the same analysis from May of 2025: >>523167156.
>>573581464Thank you for your worthless input, disgusting sex pest.
>>573581464Thank you for this valuable fact based input. I forgot about Karlach's comments on Dammon since those are origin only I think. Looks like almost the entire cast is bisexual anyway so the game being playersexual isn't that big of a change

>>573566836Since posting dead fake people is wrong and the same as real gore somehow, posting dead fake animals is also wrong. Why are you so psychopath? Godey RAPED YOU
>>573590267>and the sameincorrect try again!
>>573575321I find this argument no less dubious for being extremely common. I can understand that most players prefer more defined sexualities, because that can ground characters and make them feel more relatable. That is a valid argument. But to claim that "playersexuality" is always worse, always more generic? This sounds dangerously close to a platitude. It suggests that these extraordinary characters living extraordinary lives are somehow made mundane by not having an arbitrary restriction on whom they can fall in love with, under these extraordinary circumstances. Shadowheart is someone who has had forty years of her life stolen from her, and now yearns for some sense of normalcy. The gender of her significant other does not really factor in. Astarion is a former slave who has been forced to seduce and often sleep with his victims, men and women. To categorically decide that he now prefers men or women and would reject a Tav of the opposite sex would be missing the point. A similar dynamic can be observed in the other popular romances. Lae'zel admires strength that is not only physical, and values honesty above all else. Karlach wants to be able to love someone, after a decade spent in hell, surrounded by devils. Minthara wants to be able to trust someone, after centuries spent expecting a knife in her back. What these characters all desire is an earnest love - often the first they would experience in their short or long lives. Note that when that almost-desperate desire is not present, such as with Gale, it would be a lot more questionable to force a "playersexual" interpretation. But that is not the case for the romanceable female companions. Ultimately, it's really not about the should-have-beens, the what-ifs, or even the voice actor's irrelevant sexual identity. It's about who these characters are, what they value, and what they truly want. They might prioritize emotional connection after they've lost everything. Gender need not be the determining factor.

>>573592865well i want to play with honor mode combat rules, might as well get the achievement and the die
>>573590267A subhuman that casually jokes about rape and sexual abuse, while posting dead companions, is in no position to lecture anyone about what's right or wrong. Not every life is equal. This statement should be all the more obvious to a meat eater that supports an industry that reduces animal life to a commodity, but I digress. This is why I can post camp supplies without anyone misconstruing that as an intent to shock. This is why going out of your way to kill a companion and pose them in a grotesque manner is very obviously a childish attempt to be edgy. Therein lies the difference between a normal anon and a subhuman. Oh, but do post more dead Mintharas as you claim to have the moral high ground.
>>573591979>and now yearns for some sense of normalcyYes, a normal heterosexual relationship. Lesbian couples are dysfunctional.
>>573593427Why do you never cry when decapitated Karlach is posted? What about this dead Barcus? Godey raped you in Divinity
Dammit. The key to Dolor's room is missing. Is there a way to get pointed towards his room in the first place? Always felt kinda weird you just have to stumble up there. Almost nobody you can ask about a dwarf in red clothes.

>>573591979You finally admit that minthara is bi I'm so proud of you fatty
>>573597709Tried talking to her, all you can do is ask about hiring the dwarf.I'm not sure if this would lead to a breadcrumb, or not. I think I did it once and it didn't. But I'm in a relationship and shouldn't be asking about prostitutes like that, so kinda shit way to include a breadcrumb if it is one.
>>573598246I like that manthyfag said "she's bi but has a preference for women, when in reality Minthara's romance ending is about her starting a new "drow" house with you and that obviously implies the two of you having kids.
the technological jump Larian made between DOS2 and BG3 is crazy I remember liking the game but it looked like shit
I still think that the party needed a monk/bard/sorcerer & an orc/halfling/dwarfyou can turn jaheira & minsc into camp followers to save some dev time

>>573596156>>573598834Speaking with Father Lorgan (or digging up the corpse of the man he protected and doing the same with him) reveals the tunnels beneath the Open Hand Temple. Down there multiple doppelganger's searching the area looking for Dolor's dagger. One of them is carrying a key that points to Fraygo's Flophouse and eventually opens the secret room. If I understood correctly the said NPC didn't drop the keys for you. Have you tried redoing the fight? Or maybe reloading a previous save before entering the area for the first time?>>573598834>Tried talking to her, all you can do is ask about hiring the dwarf.Upon meeting her for the first time she tells the speaker that her librarian dominatrix dwarf would be a good fit for him but she's not working that day or something. This is when you have the option to ask when the dwarf will be available, which makes the madam realize she hasn't heard from her for a while and you can offer to take a look around in her room. From there you only have to find the door in or behind the wardrobe (it might need a Perception check, I'm not sure) and you can pickpocket the lock even if you don't have the key.

>>573644265Yeah it's been a few months since I played so I got the itch again and set up a sweet modlist of a bunch of difficulty mods, but the timing coincided with the Infinite Meuseion dlc for rogue trader so I want to finish that completely first.>>573582546It would have been nice if there was more to that. I feel like they were pairing them up together early on, some of their interactions like when he installs the temperature insulation, but it doesn't go anywhere.
It's disappointing how much hetero fanart is out there for BG3
>>573592335>>573593063If you don't feel like cheating, a pretty easy way to avoid losing your save is to make sure you've got at least one highly mobile ranged character who can run away when things get bad. Then resurrect the rest of the party back at camp. Trick works in the vast majority of the game, there are only a couple fights where you're in genuine danger (Myrkul for example).
>>573646271Being able to romance Alfira as Durge would have been pretty great. And the writers know it too, that's why they wrote that Act 2 cutscene with Durge and whoever you're romancing. Just in general we should have had Alfira in the party.

>>573650439i summon them when im clearing out the goblin camp and kill them there too
>>573652274why kill your friend
>>573652264Starting with BG3 is a gift and a curse as everything about it is newbie-friendly but at the same time nothing comes close to it in terms of production value and cinematic experience. Which is no biggie if you genuinely love CRPGs but for casuals this is often a source of disappointment and it makes moving backwards hard for them. Don't be like them. Certain design choices in the original BGs can feel archaic and the learning curve can be steep sometimes but they stood the test of time for sure.My advice is to do a BG3 playthrough then move onto BG1 and BG2. The Enhanced Editions are decent once you remove the cancerous extra companions Beamdog forced into them. (Visit https://argent77.github.io/A7-NoEENPCs/index.html for a superb an easy-to-install mod and Disable them all.) Then you can do another BG3 run and get all the references, meet old friends and foes and witness people talk about adventures you actually lived through. The game definitely has enough content for two distinct runs.

>blade cantrips installed>steel wind strike installedYep, it's Bladesinging time.
>>573657468Just disable the NPCs altogether. That's the important part. Everything related to them wasn't part of the original games.

>Larian Studios has revealed a major upgrade to the engine powering its next RPG, removing one of Baldur's Gate 3's biggest multiplayer limitations.>According to technical director Bert Van Semmertier, players in Baldur's Gate 3 had to progress through acts together in co-op because of engine restrictions. In the studio's next engine iteration, those limitations have been completely removed.>This means players will be able to explore different parts of the world independently without waiting for the rest of the party to advance. It also gives developers far more freedom when designing larger and more complex locations.>Van Semmertier also said Larian isn't trying to compete on graphics alone. Instead, the studio's priority remains creating better gameplay experiences rather than chasing cutting-edge visuals.>Larian's next RPG, Divinity, is currently in full production with around 500 developers working on it, while studio CEO Swen Vincke has indicated an Early Access release is not expected before 2027.oh my god do you have any idea what that means? we won't get a lower city/rivington mess ever again and maaaaaaybe that will lead larian to go less hard on cutting HUGE chunks of the FUCKING map every FUCKING act like they did with bg3just as a reminder they cut:wyll's college in act 2literally 50% of moonrise tower there were supposed to be twomephistopheles' realm that you could visitthe upper cityand they had a lot of trouble with the xbox version of bg3 and literally had to ask microsoft engineers to help them out lol the performance of the game was a mess for a long time too especially in act 3, this is huugeoh oh oh and maybe just maaaybe since there are less limitations when playing on coop maaybe we'll finally get a day and night cycle since larian stated that this is why we didn't have one in bg3good news great news even taking a systemic approach to improve bg3's formula is a very smart idea, the writers are doing something similar btw

>This means players will be able to explore different parts of the world independently without waiting for the rest of the party to advance. It also gives developers far more freedom when designing larger and more complex locations.monkey's paw>we've abolished the acts system, the entire game is one big act
>>573700547nope never happen I hate coop games>>573700864>we've abolished the acts system, the entire game is one big actI don't think that's ever gonna happen, being able to go back to early game areas after major events happening further down the line would force require 50 times more reactivity than locking areas behind acts & story progression this is why you can't take minthara to the underdark, she would obviously have to react to EVERY single event there if she were, you gotta write & voice that too nuhuh it ain't happening
I love the direction larian is taking, these engine updates mean that we'll get areas that look & feel closer to the concept arts

running sorcerer tav, cleric shadowheart, battlemaster lae and berserker karlach.Feeling that I'm missing some thief-related shenanigans like sleight of hand and good dex on those checks. Whose class do I swap (or multiclass)?
>>573752136bard+sorc would be cool, but I'd swap one of the others out. probably make shart a bard with good dex
>>573752136i would dump karl pure rogue is comfyastarion just needs two hand crossbows and the risky ring to dish out damage
>>573752136Anybody with a high DEX and suitable Proficiencies can be a decent party Rogue. Shart is good candidate for this after some fine-tuning. What makes the dip into the actual class worthwhile is Expertise (double Proficiency bonus of the selected skills) but I wouldn't stop before level 3 as Thief is one of the most popular and universally useful dip with it's ExtraBonus Action. So the only question is who benefits the most from it in your party. I can tell it was god-sent for my Berserker Karlach except I was playing an exclusive throwing build based on that subclass, so if you're playing a traditional Barbarian you unlikely to get as much out of it as I did.
>>573752136Unless you will try pickpocketing no need for a dedicated thief, you get very strong sleight of hand checks from equipment already to unlock doors/chests and disarms traps

The troll that is currently spamming worthless garbage is not really any different from the parasite sharing Swen tweets, copy-pasting Larian news, and just being an all-around obnoxious nuisance just because it can get away with it. Unfortunately, condoning the latter signals that the former can also shit up the thread by dumping its anti-BG3 folder. If only there were still anons who cared enough to report that trash.
>>573765769Honestly it's pretty good. It changes some characters I'd prefer it didn't but you can customize it pretty well to avoid altering some of the more important ones. I used it but left out stuff like gender swapping Aylin or giving Isobel and Ketheric appearance changes.

Staying up to watch McGregor blow out his knee and fail instantly was entirely worth it.Guess I'll restart the game again after I save Shadowheart's parents tomorrow. I really wish we could have had an open ended Skyrim-like version of BG3 so I wouldn't feel so anxious about ending it and could spend time with Shadowheart forever.
>>573765981>>573766003I'll see about installing it for my next playthrough
>>573766213Random screencaps of "gaming journalism" or the writers' socials are not any more BG3-related than Swen tweeting what he had for lunch. Both are worthless and malicious spam that serve only one purpose - shitting up the thread, thereby making normal discussion or even content sharing impossible. Both should be reported accordingly.
>>573765981How does it change Ketheric?Be nice for him to not have a beard, as a full elf. Isobel's face doesn't need changed though. I also wouldn't want Ravengaurd and Wyll changed.

Anybody know if Minthara still gets transported to Moonrise if I knock her out during the raid?
>>573796436Like, if you side with her to attack the grove? She probably would, I think she always ends up there if she's alive by act 2.
>>573796436Who, the act I miniboss? I just kill her.

>>573798685More like, if I bait her into attacking the grove and then join the defenders.
>>573800382Yeah, she still ends up at Moonrise. Like I said, if she's alive when you enter act 2, she goes to Moonrise.
>>573800446alright! thanks.
>>573796418Well, he's not making a game for them ultimately. He's making it for us. He abandoned us.Guess that's pretty much it for this playthrough. Don't like playing paladin at all. Everything about it should be cool, but DnD's spell system is just too shit. Shadowbaby was the one thing keeping me going. God, I wish she was in an open ended and open world RPG so we could be together forever.
>>573800386>takes 2 puffs and tosses it away
>>573800446>>573800490This didn't used to be the case. She would only show up in Moonrise if knocked out in the goblin camp.Not sure if they've changed it, so better make plenty of saves.
Does Honor mode become trivial after level 5 like the normal game?
>>573801018And everything he does has to go through them. There's a reason why every devs who makes a good DnD game immediately fucks off and gives WotC the finger.On another note, why the fuck can you not chuck people off edges with telekinesis? Also fuck the fight up Moonrise, can't believe you can't long rest or flee, so now I'm stuck in this endless loop.
>>573803027Some ledges are really fucking weird with that. Like they just didn't put any kind of an invisible floor down the chasm for the cursor to hit.Moonrise's issue is the shitty little decorative crenelated wall around each walkway. Blocks throwing, tele, and shoving.
>>573803431I ended up in that situation because Gale got shoved off the ledge onto the docks, yet when I tried to telekinesis the guy down there I got the "Invalid Target" prompt.
>>573802876No but it becomes much easier, its still very hard to get wiped because you get a ton of get out of jail for free cards in this game
>>573802876sort of? boss fights can be challenging
>>573768790>raise my affinity with AstarionWith a goody two-shoes MC or party? It's an uphill battle. There are 4 options that gives you +10 with him in the entire game and two is locked behind his romance or you playing as a specific Origin. The other two is letting him drink from your neck without hesitation and letting him kill Gandrel (which of course affects his fate down the road). Which sucks as you'll have at least one decision during his companion quest at late Act2 that can nuke his approval if it's not done in his way, even if you can bail yourself out with a skill check so Astarion doesn't outright leaves your company.I have two advises for you: one, talk to him on the regular (this applies to every companion btw - going a round before each Long Rest is not a bad idea) and adapt a sympathetic and understanding approach towards his issues; and two, don't feature him in your regular party unless there's a good reason for that. (Typically some connections with the place of unique interactions with the NPCs there. It's easy to miss most of these on your first run unless you specifically look them up but this is what subsequent runs are for.) The first let's you slowly stack Approval and get to know him much better, the latter saves you from the quickly pilling up Disapproval points everywhere. Astarion is not mustache-twirling evil but the grey/fun options he also loves are too few to counterbalance his constant eye-rolling.

>>573817083>>573817528Hover over these entries and it'll break things down for you. That's the purpose of the combat log. The most basic formula compares to your Attack Roll to the enemies' AC (Armor Class) and if it's equals or greater than it's a hit, if not then you missed. If you roll a natural 20 then it's a Critical Hit.
>>573817941>and now he's even too retarded to transfer files from his pc to his phone
>>573818040Oh shit, so apparently Great Weapon Master: All In is giving me -5 on all my rolls, is that why I miss so much? How do I change that?
>>573818636did you even read the feat description before taking it? did you see +10 and went full hurr durr durr durr and went for it
>>573818767Aight, how do I change that?
>>573818957Click the passive tab on your hotbar and turn it offRetard
>>573806161This is sound advice if one wants to treat Astarion's approval like something inherently valuable that needs to be chased and micromanaged. I'm skeptical of the idea, especially in the situation where the player doesn't pursue romance. If Astarion disapproves of the player character's every action, then that's just how it is. Most here ask for distinct personalities in the companions, and some sort of party tension. Astarion remaining someone who is at odds with a goody two-shoes player character is in line with that. Amusingly, this is not an issue with Lae'zel, Shadowheart, or even Minthara - the other so-called "evil-aligned" companions. Only Astarion is difficult to deal with.
>>573818957if you want more accurate and consistent hits you shouldn't take GWM that early, take ASI insteadrespec with withersor you can disable GWM under your passive tabs but then whats the point of taking it?please read the feats in full instead of going full retard
>>573819329Is GWM better later on though? If it is then I'll just disable it instead of respecing.
>>573819329Also, not my fault the game barely explains anything about the combat.
>>573819560>Is GWM better later on thoughhey remember what i said here retard>>573816703you'll start stacking bonuses later that negates the -5>>573819684untrue. you've proven yourself incapable of reading with the -5 when taking GWM
>>573818636>>573818957Exactly, but the descriptions and tooltips told you about the Feat's trade-off already. That -5 is significant penalty during early-game. Luckily you can turn it off by going to the Passive tab of the UI and clicking on it. This is also part of the game's tutorial.>>573819560Early on it's only recommended to turn it on if you have a high hit chance with it. Let's say the enemy is Prone. Later on you'll have multiple way to counterbalance that -5 to attack rolls, so it essentially becomes an almost free 10 extra damage.

>>573820635Maybe your crtl key (or whatever your weapon target key might be) is stuck
>>573819684
>>573819308It's a fully practical advice. I only started caring about Astarion's Approval when it dipped down so low that him leaving the party after a potential crash out became reality and that was with my MC being generally supportive and emphatic towards him. Most companions stand at 90+ Approval with only one or two in the 70-80s and I'm actively rotating everybody while also talking to them on the regular. I'm all about role-playing and accepting consequences but Astarion was indeed the odd man out in this regard and I wanted to be able to finish his companion quest. I usually do one (for the lack of better word) completionist playthrough of CRPGs that rarely lasts less than 3-digit hours in playtime. With BG3 I'm far beyond that and while I'm obviously not against spending my precious free time this way I think it's also understandable that getting the most of the experience is a priority for me. Just for the sake of the context here.
Meh, this game is good, but it's no Elden Ring, sorry.
"Loving someone is not soft, it's actually one of the hardest things a person can do" - Minthara
>>573819560GWM is mathematically one of the best feats in the game, even setting aside the bonus attack it grants you on a critical hit or kill. It is completely justifiable to pick it as early as level 4, assuming you can compensate for the penalty to attack rolls with various bonuses and, ideally, a source of Advantage. Common sources of increased accuracy that are available in Act 1 include Bless, Elixirs (of Strength or Heroism), the aptly named Oil of Accuracy, and some class features, such as Precision Attack if you're a Battle Master. Note that higher average damage doesn't always translate into a better subjective experience. A 65% chance to deal 20 damage may feel worse than a 90% chance to deal 10 damage, despite being objectively better in the long run. Feel free to toggle off the passive against high-AC bosses or when an enemy is at death's door.
>>573823312wise words from the one and only Minthara
if you raise a goblin in a loving home with good education from birth do they turn out good?
>>573823437Also if you're playing Paladin, the Risky Ring is fantastic with GWM because you get perma advantage on your attacks and the Paladin aura mitigates the saving throw disadvantage. I almost always go >4: Savage Attacker>8: GWM>12: ASI or Alert (if doing HM)
>>573824906They will always be naturally inclined to violence, quick to anger, and so on. But that's true of a lot of people too. If you consider such a person 'good' so long as he resists the urges then yeah, your half goblin half drow child could be good.
All of a sudden, I enjoy having Wyll in party for some reason.
but we got the cute green trad girl already
is she hiding behind ugly ass laezel? tell her to come out from behind there and get laezel out of frame to spare everyone's appetite
>>573826461Lae'zel had casual sex with hundreds of gith men, maybe more
>>573826679When you think about it, Lae'zel is very open minded for being willing to have sex with non-gith men
Want to do a multiplayer campaign but>one friend doesn't pay for xbox live and has stipulated that if we do it, it must be marathoned>one friend bought it near launch and never got past the first encounter at the beach, effectively giving up on it>another friend REFUSES to buy the game unless he can get the physical edition, despite owning digital copies of the games he is currently playing>another friend wants to do it, but his wife effectively dominates the xbox and he can never get on it>Steam's discussion board is either in Cyrillic, Spanish, or Chinese, with the occasional english post being from a week ago or having a timeframe where I am in the middle of sleep>Discord LFG is filled with massively modded games or "this is the run I am doing"fuck me
>>573828490>>one friend doesn't pay for xbox live and has stipulated that if we do it, it must be marathonedwut? consolebabbies have to PAY to play online? wouldn't the lifetime cost of console ownership exceed the cost of getting a PC? wtf?
Bros, I never finished Act 3 and I've replayed this game 3 times
>>573828687It's the PC Master Race burden
>Talk to Zevlor about defeating the Goblin leaders>Go to the Mountain Pass >Go to the Moonrise TowersAll of these advance the story, which one should I do first? I wanna do the most content as possible.
>>573829006Talking to Zevlor, obviously. Doing the other two advances the Grove plotline without you around. Basically, play in the order you listed them.
>>573826679It's to contrast with the virgin romance option (Shadowheart)
>>573829006If you want to do as much content in this game, take care of the goblin leaders. Once they're taken care of, underdark or mountain pass. Once cleared, do the other. Moonrise is Effectively Act 2
>>573829006If you haven't done the Kagha quest, do it first because it is also resolved after defeating the goblin leaders and turning in the quest.But past that, killing the Goblin leaders and turnining in the quest is the only "time sensitive" quest in the enterity of Act 1.You're free to travel to the mountain pass after turning that in.Although i'm wondering whether you've been to the Underdark, considering that is usually the logical progression after killing the Goblin leaders and you want as much content as possible.
>>573829372>shadowheart>virginKek
>>573829543What is Kagha's quest? I saved a child from being imprisioned by her, was that it? I killed the Goblin leaders, found a secret passage in the Temple, went to the Underdark and now I'm close to one of the Moonrise Towers, but when I tried to get in the game said it would advance the story, so I decided to ask here which one I should do first, guess I'll talk to Zevlor then.
>>573830292There's a hidden chest in the back of the room opposite to the one where you met Nettles. Read the note inside of it.
>>573830645Guess I missed that quest then, shit. I did find a note about her in a forest that she was plotting to overtake Halsin.
are drow women promiscuous
>>573832596less than sharrans
>>573832596less than githyanki
>>573832596Would you use the word "promiscuous" to describe someone that likes to fuck the slaves they own? If so, yes.
I just got this game and have no idea what class/race to play
>>573833528white human fighter is a classic for a reason
>>573832596they have orgies with demons, don't care about incest and own several sex slaves
>>573824906maybe, it depends on their god's influence on them, orcs & gnolls got the same issue
>>573833528Sorcerer half high elf
>>573812045wotc would have taken 20% of the revenue I believe, all this ''we hate DLCs'' gimmick is a huge cope imo I'm sure divinity is getting a ton of expansions & DLCs now that they don't have wotc sucking out a lot of their money & energy, you have no idea how much money owlcat makes by making companion DLCs, it's insane, larian would be retarded to not do the same
>>573833528Hexblade Warlock is probably the easiest beginner class>You only need to worry about one stat (Charisma)>Martial melee class so your combat turns are just "run up to the enemy and hit them">Has Eldritch Blast, the best ranged combat cantrip in the game>High charisma means you can pass dialogue checks easilyPaladin (any oath except Crown) and Battlemaster Fighter are also super easy, straightforward melee classes. If you want to play at range, then Gloomstalker Ranger, it has a bonus that lets you take an extra action at the beginning of combat so you can comfortably oneshot most encounters.
>>573830292>>573830645And most importantly turn the quest in before rescuing Halsin. Many players, myself included, reached the confrontation part and thought it can wait until the Archdruid is home. Wrong. It auto-completes by then and while you can talk to the affected parties about it nobody gives you a damn thing. Effectively you lock yourself out at least one but most likely two useful unique items.
>>573833528Make a character and roleplay it.
Shadowheart is the only romance you can fail while trying not to. Every other character is extremely easy and you have to be retarded to screw it up.
>>573834626this. how do i avoid the [shadowheart disapproves] when i refuse to let halsin join in?
>>573834684Send her back to camp and then kill him?
>>573834684recruit him, put him in your group and start the next fight. Let him die.
>>573833528What do you like to do in a video game? Beat things with a stick, resource management, or tactical superiority?
>>573834626shart is literally the easiest romance in the game what
>>573835257shart is pretty easy alright WAHEY
>>573835342kek
>>573828687Basically, yes. Part of the reason that console makers are willing to sell the initial hardware at a lost is that they know they'll make the money back through the monthly subscription cost, since almost everyone plays online. For an example an xbox is $750 (lmao), and then live is $15 per month, it only takes one year for someone to spend a total of $920. And that's before even buying any games>inb4 what games
>>573835497>For an example an xbox is $750 (lmao), and then live is $15 per month, it only takes one year for someone to spend a total of $920jesus fucking christ the fool and his gold
>>573835497>at a lost*at a loss
>>573834684it's still mindboggling that her writer wanted to cuck you that hard he was even proud of it on twitter
I think that John tried to make her appear as femme fatale by making her talk about her rowdy sexual past which is supposed to empower her but all it did was show how much of a victim she actually is, she's clinging on the stupidest sharran dogma and the game let you call her out on it, why does she keep the shadowheart name? Why does she feel like it's ok to flirt with Halsin while she's dating someone else, why does she think that there's nothing wrong with a couple banging hookers together? Why does she think that knowing how to manipulate people is something to be proud of? The game lays out all of these things but doesn't let the player talk about her warped view on sex and relationships while you can do that throughout the 3 arcs with Astarion, she genuinely feels incoherent as a character.
>>573836028Isn't Halsin his OC?
>>573836028Not knowing anything about that writer specifically, I've noticed that people who are pro-swinging/polyamory often take the stance that they're actually the normal ones and everyone else is just repressing themselves by being monogamous.
>>573833528>human>male>fighterroleplaying time
>>573836240yeah he gives off major self insert vibes his writer even cried about the allegations on twitter lol
>>573812965hmm... nyo
>>573834684>buying an orgy>using halsin in your party at allyou deserve it
>>573812965shaddap>>573836319idk I've never met someone that freaky irl I did stumble on the word '' polyphobia''while browsing the bg3 reddit once though kek
>>573836637hey what does >once or twice...or more than that means?
Fuck, man. Astarion is fucking hilarious, one of the greatest characters ever written in a videogame.
>>573836232>why does she keep the shadowheart nameIt's been her name for about 30 years, and even after rejecting Shar she still clearly has some serious identity issues about whether she's a Sharran or a Selunite.
>>573836750he's like that gay friend you keep around cause he talks with a lisp
>>573836232>reposting something from 2024>pretending to be the namefaghttps://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/466329065/#466332896Not obsessed, by the way.
>>573836750yeah he's awesome I never expected to enjoy his company so much during the EA
NEW>>573836898>>573836898>>573836898NEW>>573836898>>573836898>>573836898NEW>>573836898>>573836898>>573836898
>>573836820Holy shit, I just typed that post and he invited me to have sex, wasn't expecting that. Should I do it just to raise my affinity with him? Shadowheart is the one I wanna really romance, I already got her kiss scene.
>>573836820He reminds me a lot of Dorian from Dragon Age. Actually it's sort of fascinating that the character is so popular with straight women when he's such a flamboyant campy gay, I don't remember Dorian ever having that type of popularity even though DAI largely appealed to a female audience.
>>573836839yep the namefag would have just linked the post instead
>>573837058don't deny him
>>573837058Look man, sometimes you've gotta hook up with your vampire homie for the sake of party synergy. Nothing gay about it, it's just part of being a leader.
>>573837058well...i mean do you wanna be gay? if yes go for it
>>573836758>It's been her name for about 30 yearsUnder normal circumstances, one could let that explanation fly.However, even if you completely disregard the circumstances under which she became a Sharran, she still cannot remember most of that time.So it's kinda eh, especially given that even other Sharran mocked her for that name.>whether she's a Sharran or a Selunite.In theory yes but Selune has already given her powers without even praying to Selune, once.No one pushes her to become a fullblown Selunite and she even dyes her hair to reflect that change.There are some hints that Selune and Shar are seemingly "fighting" over Shadowheart but Selune is never shown to push anything onto Shadowheart.It's literally just her dad pushing that Selunite thing onto her when he wants to die for Shadowheart to be freed off Shar, but that's it.
>>573837247Will that have any consequences in the game though? Will it affect my other romances?
>>573837343>POV: You just respecced Laezel as a Glamour Bard and she has to play the violin every morning to give the party Longstrider
>>573837386Generally if you want to romance a specific character, it's best only to hook up with that character. IIRC, Karlach and Laezel are pretty casual about you sleeping with other people in Act 1, but you can lock yourself out by Act 2. The Tiefling Party is when you're sort of "locked in" to a specific romance.
