ChocNitty posted:This game is hard af. I'm on the quest where you need to kill the 3 goblin leaders. On youtube, all the videos on how to beat them are using cheese methods. Breaking bridges when they walk over them. Kicking them into a pit. None of them show how to legitimately beat them in a standard fight. Other players mention the great loot you miss out when you use those methods. The problem is I don't have the necessary things to even cheese them. Don't have multiple invisibility potions. Don't have illusion spells. And i'm not sure if I am at the appropriate level (I just reached 4). And I don't know if I just need to gain some levels, or if I should be using different characters. Or if it needs characters I didn't choose for my game. If I try to fight them normally, there's like 7 enemies I have no chance of taking them all down. Tried my best to separate them. Breaking war drums. But not having much like with that either. Go do some other quests and come back at a higher level/with better gear imo. Typo posted:If I ever find the energy for another playthrough def gonna try gloomstalker rogue lol My sorceror felt stronger than ever in act 3, but I agree shadowheart started to feel like she was lagging behind. But then I summoned a djinni and it was good. feller fucked around with this message at 20:22 on Jan 2, 2024 |

You get a full action, but you don't get extra attacks in that action. This also applies to elixir of bloodlust, but I think speed pots are still full attacks (but don't quote me on that)

I noticed that the pike also just takes longer to return in moonrise and if you end turn before it comes back, it won't.

GiantRockFromSpace posted:Okay. Any important things to know they've changed since Patch 3? I'm aware of the basic stuff like "the creche advances the druid plot", "you can go both into Underdark and creche" and "Moonrise can and should be done first", but I'd like to know more in detail if there's confirmation of what timers are there and stuff. As long as you don't ignore the popups that say "hey if you go here stuff will happen", you'll be fine. You basically have it all though (except you don't have to do moonrise first - just save the end of the gauntlet for last).

Black Noise posted:They’ve been tweeting teasers for patch 6 and spent Valentine’s Day memeing about not releasing it. So they weren’t even practicing “say nothing”. They got too cavalier with new features and released on a Friday instead of next Tuesday. The other option is use beta branches. Unless there is some weird licensing I’m just not privy too for why this is an issue. What the person that runs their twitter account does has no bearing on what the devs are doing. You’re being very weird about it.

Ghislaine of YOSPOS posted:this Keyheric thorm fight is driving me loving nuts. one guy gets instant gibbed by the drider, everyone else gets frightened, someone gets domed by the necromite spell and the nightsong just fights the dog. I got hosed up by the long fight beforehand and can’t long rest. I’m level 8 with 1k xp to go before level 9. should I just reload and try to find some way to level? I feel like I’ve done everything but apparently you can go into the fight at level 10 so I have to be missing some stuff. My party is paladin druid barb fighter. This is the rooftop fight right? Can't you just walk out of moonrise to long rest? If you haven't gotten the "Road to Baldur's Gate" waypoint, you can level up around there still

Kingtheninja posted:On a durge run and I killed the strange ox in the Grove (usually I kill him in act 3). Was looking up info about it and saw an old post saying dammon disappears from act 2 if you kill the ox in act 1. Is this still a thing? I'll have to reload a very old save if so. Nope you’re fine

Woolie Wool posted:Another thing I discovered is that Sorcadin really isn't worth it unless you're willing to put a bunch of sorc levels in and play it like a full caster, if you're just going for a smitetank/mini-cleric single class paladin has a ton more health, better attack bonuses, and roughly the same number of spell slots. You can't even really use metamagic to power up your smites because they're tied to melee to-hit/attacks per round. I could feel my main really falling behind after 7th level and reclassing him to a basic paladin brought him back up to snuff and gave him around 30 extra HP with the Durable feat. At the beginning of the game when I dipped into sorcerer I was expecting to get a lot more 1st level spell slots for doing so but nope. I basically gave myself an HP/attack bonus/feat penalty for no gain. 6/6 is my preferred sorcadin build and it is vastly better than full paladin imo. You can beat the game with anything though and mono paladin is definitely not bad. You’re right that the first at least 5 levels should be in paladin because extra attack is the best

Kingtheninja posted:My friends and I are going to attempt getting together once a week for a 4 person playthrough. Is there anything overly complicated about 4 people trying to play the game at once or does it work pretty well? it's obviously much more chaotic than single player, but it works great and the chaos is great imo

Mike the TV posted:With some knowledge of the game, it's easy to get through a few of the early encounters that would otherwise steamroll you: Yep, these are good tips. For the beach brains, I wait until the patroller is close to the nautiloid tank (so there are 2 next to it total) and hit it with firebolt. That instakills them, and the last one isn't too tough by itself. For the blighted village, you can climb up some vines nearish to scratch and ambush the goblins if you don't feel like shapeshifting.

Docjowles posted:I went to do the hag in act 1 tonight and not sure wtf happened. When I tried to go through the fireplace she suddenly spawned in and the boss fight went down in the main tea house area. Never had this happen before. The fight was a joke, she just kinda stood there and didn't use any of her abilities. Might as well have been jumping an actual grandma. Went into the fireplace and everything was friendly, Mayrina was still in her cage and I was able to finish the quest as normal. Didn't get the hair item obviously. Was looking forward to that reward, but at least it was quick? Whole hag dungeon took about 3 minutes. lol you did the hard mode version of the nere fight. I’ve never had the courage to not side with the duergar rebels in HM

Rogue is the only one where I wouldn’t suggest going mono. All the others are great as monoclass though some are better than others ofc.

Ornery and Hornery posted:I’m glad you shared this because I was trying to find some bonus for monoclassing , but I didn’t find any capstone thing. Most classes have their capstone thing at 10 or 11 for some reason. And some of them are really good like bm or hunter ranger, fighter, or moon druid. Then 12 gets you a feat, but I usually don't find the options for a third feat to be that compelling. Docjowles posted:Cool the game just crashed and lost me like an hour of honor mode time. I don't think to spam F5 every 3 seconds in a single-save mode, my mistake. Guess I get to do Grym again Yeah I lost a couple hours the other night and haven't worked up the willpower to go redo it all yet.

Antifa Spacemarine posted:This has got to be the rarest fight out of anything right? Who would choose to go down this path is beyond me. You lose out on the best weapon in the game and it makes no RP sense. if you let balthazar take her in the shadowfell, she can still join your camp after the act is done. I felt real bad handing her over a second time lmao

Mailer posted:Most of it is just due to having state changes and long rest triggers. They built in a staggering number of options to keep you out of "But I already killed the bandits!" situations and that's really cool. My (admittedly pretty minor) peeve is that the triggers are hidden so you need online resources to not trip them, but they're so specific that you invariably wind up reading spoilers. Can you give some examples of plot things you needed to research before playing?

Mailer posted:It's entirely possible that some of the stuff I pulled from the wiki is wrong, but also I'm not spending the hours to test each thing. From stuff I've personally seen yes the pre/post grove state change affects almost all of the quests - Dammon is still technically available. The barkeep I thought I had to outdrink will happily drink for ~6 DC21 checks, which is as far as I got before I hit the wiki to find a speech option that looks like flavor text but also autokills... for reasons. Some quests are fine forever despite seeming urgent and some terminate if you rest too much. I'm not sure if the whole owlbear thing requires hitting the lair first, but again that's a wiki pull. If Nere is poisoned I had no idea, because I failed that check. There’s no autokill option. You’re supposed to do the checks. Do I understand correctly that you want to be able to look up everything for some kind of completionist first run while avoiding all spoilers?
