#bg3 act 1

[greenspark0765]

Something I didn't know in Act 1 is that you don't have to kill the cultists in the woods. In every single playthrough I've done, I just go "Wow, you're looking for someone from the ship? Ya found me :P" and then proceed to make them join their True Soul brother

It turns out that you can have them help with the Owlbear fight- Now, I'm using mods to increase my party limit so the Owlbear is really no match for 2 fighters, a wizard, a warlock, a rogue, and a cleric, but it was nice to have the extra cannon fodder for the fight

I can't wait to delete them in Act 2 during the Moonrise Towers fight.

Baldur’s Gate 3 Honor Mode Broke me.

I was doing so good. Flying by so easily. (Very easy with a Sorcerer to talk my way out of stuff)

The first thing to go “wrong” was one of Aradin’s friends died at the Grove gate, but I don’t care about that.

I saved Arabella, Mirkon, stopped the Shadow Druids.

Got both Scratch and Baby Owlbear

I easily defeated Auntie Ethel and got her boon while saving Marina.

The Goblin bosses were defeated swiftly (95% sure I spared Minthara)

Fake Paladins of Tyr dealt with.

I saved the Iron hand gnomes in Grymforge, beat Grym easily (turns out OH Monk topple makes it impossible to lose.)

The Spectator and Bulette fell and so did the Githyanki creche with Lae’zel on the path to defy Vlaakith.

The only other thing to go wrong was my character died to the stupid magic allergy cats so I lost Lovitar’s Love.

Enter Act 2. Where everything goes to shit.

First I find I accidentally sold an internal iron or something, (can Dammon use it to build the Heldusk armor by mistake?) no matter there’s a couple in Act 2 for Karlach’s second upgrade.

Except she’ll never get it,

Because ISOBEL FUCKING DIES!

OH Monk Gale was my only character who had a chance to attack, dealing massive damage to Marcus, stunning him and pushing him back, but then three Winged Horrors bee line it and instantly knock out Isobel. Even with a Warding Flare from Light Domain Shadowheart.

FUCKING EVERYONE IS DEAD!

Dammon is dead with no second upgrade for Karach.

Barcus is dead.

Art is dead so I’m unsure if I can save Thaniel.

Florrick is dead.

Rolan. Dead.

Even the fucking cat is dead.

Alfira! Fucking Alfira is dead despite my careful calculations to spare her from my Durge. You know how hard that is to do in Honor Mode? You have to know the trigger for her to show up in camp, (crossing the creek next to the owlbear cave) go back to the grove, enter the base mode and hope that 4 character can non lethal knock her out (switching between them so she doesn’t get so pissed at a single one to get them arrested)

But now it doesn’t matter because she is dead before I can get the amazing rewards from saving Lakrisa.

I’m so upset now. I don’t even know if I can finish this.

Jaheira managed to survive and joined my camp. (Honestly if I do continue I have half a mind to respec her into an oath of vengeance paladin cause that seems very fitting after what happened.)

BG3 Auntie Ethel Glitch

So I just had the stupidest glitch ever in my playthrough of BG3 that makes me so glad I'm not on honor mode because I had to reset my game.

I was fighting Auntie Ethel in her lair (act 1) and legit, one of her clones became immortal.

So, I think it started with how it got knocked back into the center of the arena and fell down into the hole, but reappeared much like how many honor mode bosses can't be killed by knocking them into holes (But this isn't honor mode) I was like, that's weird. However, she's not disappearing when hit with an attack like normal clones. In fact...she gets knocked down to 0hp but is still standing and fighting....weird right....but this is where it gets worse.

Auntie stops the fight and bargains, I intimidate her into letting me have the +1 and free Mayrina because why not. She leaves, but I'm still in combat with the immortal clone. For whatever reason I have trouble hitting it, but when I do, it says it takes damage but then gets right up with 0hp! I try knocking it into the hole again, and it just reappears still at 0hp.

(I did the preform feat I got from Alfira here to break the invisibility I got from my Dark Urge cloak , as I wanted to make sure I got pulled into the dialogue since I'm a warlock for better intimidation)

But anyways, has anyone ever had something like this happen?? I don't even know what I would have done if I couldn't reload to do the fight over.

I'm so happy to have the owlbear cub at my camp THEY ARE INSANELY CUTE 🥹❤️

[necrodette]

He absolutely fell on top of her because I have no shame
