Oh, I guess I was wrong. Underdark is like part 2 of the 1st act.

So I hit some rear end in a top hat in red wizard robes and a red pointy hat and then all the scripting broke because it triggered two cutscenes and then started the fight.

gradenko_2000 posted:was Tyranny any good, combat-wise? it had a genuinely innovative magic system but still boiled down to buffing the poo poo out of your companions and letting the AI carve a path unfortunately. still a good game that didn't get quite the development it deserved imo

I did everything in the baby starting forest and was like 'okay cool act 2 time' only to discover the Underdark lol. Then I did all that and found the Monastery. Big rear end game. And apparently people have beaten it already? Honestly respect to the most dedicated nerds

I assume the game is just scripted to show the "you're going to advance the story" pop up on specific transitions areas, and there isn't any logic that controls that message.

Actual final boss is pretty well countering pretty much all my bullshit, may actually have to get good at dodging to bring this down. Full spell casting seems like it'll be easiest but I'm loathe to become a nerd bug

Communist Thoughts posted:i played through the pretty interesting CYOA start and rolled a fighter your first mistake was making a non-caster in a crpg unless it's BG1/2 where they hand out insanely overpowered weapons like candy generally non-casters can go gently caress themselves mechanics-wise e: and bg2 combat was mostly wizard duel focused anyway, there's a point early on where it's pretty well-balanced but eventually every wizard will just insta-cast 20 layers of protection and be functionally immortal to anything but another caster loving with those. or the paladin's "go gently caress yourself spellcaster" sword but there's ways around that thing too Yinlock has issued a correction as of 20:54 on Aug 15, 2023 |

Oh another thing about Baldur’s Gate 3 is that the loot is garbage. Just endless amount of colored garbage taking up space in inventory. Trash as far as the eye can see.

i don't understand you'd prefer the loot to just be generic gray items with no special traits

RandomBlue posted:Is there an easier way to split health potions for the party? Getting tired of having to split the stack then split the stack then give the other 3 stacks to each other character. Just let the entire party use any potion regardless of who has it, I'm tired of inventory juggling. Maybe I am insane but I have all my pots and scrolls on my main guy, and when another character needs to use them I hit tab, which opens every inventory, right click the item, and it says drink (name of selected party member) and has always let me use items like they are in my bag no matter how far away my dudes are in a fight.

I'll say this about the secret boss, it's tough as hell but really fun, same as most bosses have been. I'm still pretty confident that if I just stack health and burst damage it'll work, I just need to get better than just okay at dodging. Luckily HK is no Radagon

I only played through throne of bhaal once, but iirc fighters flip back around to being quite strong compared to casters by doing like 20 attacks per round with +5 weapons once you go past BG2's original level cap. (this assumes of course that your fighters have a cadre of casters applying buffs, so spells are still essential in that sense)

Yinlock posted:your first mistake was making a non-caster in a crpg is still the case here in BG3? I made a wizard exactly because of that in the previous games lol but I don't know anything about D&D 5e so I have no idea which one of warlock/sorcerer/wizard is definitely better/more op than the other

The party is like 6 people, you might as well have a caster instead of just 6 fighters.

Also big props to Salubra, my favorite NPC that didn't die or end up being a huge disgusting freak and isn't named Zote, who is really doing a lot of work in ensuring the first phase is relatively trivial

I made a wizard exactly because of that in the previous games lol BG1/2 were 2e and thus still firmly in "all non-casters just hit things and that's it" territory. I've only played a bit of BG3 cuz i'm waiting for mods but it's based on 5e so while casters will still reign supreme the mortals still have things that they can actually do besides swing weapon. for minmaxing in games sorc is generally the most busted, wizard the most versatile, and warlock the most edgy roleplay flavor drat horror queefs posted:I only played through throne of bhaal once, but iirc fighters flip back around to being quite strong compared to casters by doing like 20 attacks per round with +5 weapons once you go past BG2's original level cap. yeah bhaal focuses more on giant group fights rather than wizard duels so fighters become a lot more valuable wizards can still straight-up stop time and then drop armageddon on the battlefield so lol, but still e: the problem is of course compounded by how rest-heavy games tend to be, but there's no real way around that without good balancing which is Hard. pathfinder tried by making resting super tedious but then also balanced every encounter around a fully rested+buffed party so you need to rest all the time anyway Yinlock has issued a correction as of 22:20 on Aug 15, 2023 |

My main guy is a Warlock but the special variant that uses a sword and it's been working well. Only spells I use are Eldritch Blast and the one that gives me ice armour or whatever, rest I forget about
