>FAQ:>Q: How often should I long rest?>A: Many companion and romance interactions occur when long resting. 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/bggpasta

Why does the schizo have to ruin the general?
i like female cazador. she's a dominatrix who keeps this filthy male (astarion) in a cage, chains him and whips him. sometimes castrates him but he's a vampire so it regenerates. and when astarion is free, he gets his revenge and rapes her. after this he asends and his mistress dies knowing he did it to her
>>530072173either the player if they romanced her or an unnamed male, they were two different tags for her pregnancy

>>530072197BG3 WARPED the /crpgg/ schizo, and since then it has led some autistic personal crusade against this general, whose continued existence for two years must feel like some kind of personal slight. Fortunately, it can only samefag so much within 750 posts, and the thread generally does a good job at ignoring its pathetic existence.
>>530073705yeah, three of you. you, shaddy and halsin

Bros... be honest with me. I haven't played the game and am in the early stages. I want to romance Shart but I'm afraid she'll actually cuck me with Halsin. Is it like an actual cuckold thing where she fucks him no matter what you do or say, or does she ask to fuck him, or is it a Garrus/Tali thing where she fucks him if you don't fuck her first? Is it apart of some ritual? What is it? I don't get it and I'm scared. I need to know because I don't want to waste my romance on her if she's going to cuck me.
Why has Larian stopped talking about this character?
is it true about how being with Halsin permanently changes Shaddy's "scent"?
>>530074298>Is it like an actual cuckold thing where she fucks him no matter what you do or sayshe will dream about sex with him (you have no choice in this)

>>530074298it's optional cucking, she will flirt with him in act 3 several times whether you like it or not if they're both in your party
>>530074308they are racis
>>530074298Her desire for him is deep in her code. Think of them like soulmates. If you romance her, the best you can think of is basically getting in the way of that.

It's crazy how self-indulgent the Halsin dialogue is in-game, but then Larian avoids shipping them like the plague on social media. It's all ShartxKarlach or ShartxLae'zel on there. Why would John Corcoran write her like that in the first place if he wasn't going to stand behind it?

One of my mod classes has an ability that develops a delay on its use.
Works fine when I load the game, but after a few minutes it takes like 5 seconds before the animation actually plays out.

>>530077491>Is that true, or does she just ask on her own?It's true. You have to hire the hookers for an orgy. She doesn't ever try to fuck other people on her own. No idea why you're responding to obvious trolls
>>530077491No, I was just talking to the prostitutes about their lives and didn't ask for sex. One of them brought it up and Shadowheart agreed to it before I could respond.

>>530079895lmao minthara would just abuse the shit out of gale
>>530080838Yes, in general, and in this case too. You need common values in a couple. Neither God Gale nor tenured professor Gale is a good match for Lae'zel. Even Shadow'zel, a ship often dismissed here, has one happy ending with both fighting together in the gith civil war. Some romances only work with Tav as the other half.
>>530081950>has one happy ending with both fighting together in the gith civil war.getting killed by vlaakith isn't a happy ending

>>530081950>Even Shadow'zel, a ship often dismissed here, has one happy ending with both fighting together in the gith civil war.I think the "happy ending for the ship is dumb because Shart has to throw her lifegoals aside either way.
>save parentsnot only does she shelf her dream of living on a farm, she just straight up abandons her parents to live with her lover.
She doesn't even say goodbye and leaves them to fend for themselves.
>kills parentsher parents wanted her to become a Selunite Cleric that spreads the faith of Selune.
And now she's off to fight in a Gith civil war where no one gives a fuck about that.
Could argue that it works because Shart is happy and whatnot and this is what matters, but you get the idea.
Some origin companion romances struggle to work with each other because the situation post game vary massively and often require one companion to take a bullet for the relationship and shelve their lifegoals.
Works well with Tav because Tav is a blank slate and thus can fit onto any romance but origin are really contrived at times.
>>530084068laezel doesn't have to go fight a civil war. iirc if you stay in faerun as laezel, shart will say she's gonna tag along with you in the epilogue. this is true even if you didn't romance her
>>530084068Astarion works perfectly with everyone because he has no goals.
>>530083691>Lae'zel's best ending is staying in Faerun....and traveling to wherever fate takes her, fighting the gith who are still loyal to Vlaakith. It will be a nomadic life of battle, never settling for the mundane and permanent. That's not who Lae'zel is.
>>530084068>Some origin companion romances struggle to work with each other because the situation post game vary massively and often require one companion to take a bullet for the relationship and shelve their lifegoals.Yes, exactly. Although it could be said that compromises are also key in a healthy relationship. It's a stretch for Shadowheart and Lae'zel as you explained, but it's still far more plausible than Lae'zel settling down in Waterdeep, while Gale punches the clock at his teaching job.

>>530074298She doesn't actually cheat on you. I'm sorry shitposters have mislead you.
If you take her to the brothel with Halsin, she will reveal that she has been daydreaming of having sex with him for a while now, even while dating you. For some people this is crossing a line, but that line is not actual for real cheating, it's just sort of a red flag. It's up to you if you're ok with that or not. Some people say that's not actually cheating and they happily date her, other people say that's weird behavior and go with someone else. Both are fine.
if you don't go to the brothel, at camp Halsin has another scene where he propositions you for sex and will tell you to ask your current romance if it's ok for you to sleep around, and Shart is one of the characters who says go ahead, while most say no. Shart also says to tell her all the details, and that she will also "find her own fun" while you're with Halsin. So she's certainly written to be the poly queen, even if you don't go to the brothel. But once again, this is not cheating or cucking. An open relationship where both partners agree to have sex outside of the usual two is polyamory (if it's long term) or swinging (if it's short term). So again, this is either ok with you and you happily continue, or it's a weird red flag and you go with someone else, but either way it's not actual cheating/cucking.
Oh she also flirts with him a few times and calls his arms big and says she likes people with muscle and he offers to turn into a fish to help her learn to swim and a few other conversations, but those are minor.
None of the companions actually cheat on you, and it's a real shame that there are some shitposters in this thread who make poor innocent new people think they do.
For the record, Lazy also does not cheat on you. She only sleeps with Wyll/Asty if you already turn her down. You're not in a relationship with her when she does that, so obviously it's not cheating.
>>530103642>I'm sorryWhy? The thing you replied to seems like a shitposter too.
>>530102407Wyll is Karlach's unironic canon love interest and no one cares. Halsin is a side piece that the player can bring into an orgy with Astarion or Shadowheart. A couple anons here have been mindbroken by that for years at this point. Hundreds of pictures saved. An anon actually dedicated an entire playthrough to it. Copypasta spam in every new thread.

>>530103642The specifics of this make her rank low on my overall roleplay game love interest hierarchy, but she's still at the top within this game, and then only because she's the most humanoid looking one with the cutest voice. If I had more long term human looking female love interests to choose from, then she might not make the list at all. The sad part is that if she had some daydream crush on any female character in the game, and offered a threesome with her, she'd be hailed as the best. I also feel like she's similar to Leliana in Dragon Age: Origins now -- both have a scene where they suggest a threesome (or foursome) with other characters (including the gay male elf Zevran in that game). And even though it's an optional dialogue, it still factors into my belief that Morrigan is the better romance, because she doesn't do that.
I'll keep romancing Shart and hope I don't accidentally stumble across some cuck shit that requires me to crossbow bolt her in the face and leave her with no resurrection scroll.
After i finish my blind honor run, i`m gonna make another Honor run where if any character dies they will be dead forever as i`ll not use Withers or any scroll of Revivify ever

🔍
>>530106285Personally, I think it has to do with expectations.
in act 1, Shart says that she is not the "third wheel type" and declines any threesomes, and she gets mad if you are not faithful to her. Then in act 2 she starts mentioning in ambient dialogue how physically attractive Halsin is, and by act 3 she is the poly queen companion that has multiple scenes where she approves and even disapproval if you back out of the threesome. So there is a certain element of a 180 degree turn in her characterization. Some people argue that it makes sense, because in act 1 she is the repressed cleric of an oppressive god and in act 3 she is free to be herself, but that doesn't really help the situation since that means "herself" is the poly queen, and also it doesn't make sense because we are told the sharrans in the cloister were sexually active with each other and their victims.
With Leliana, she's a super spy bard who uses seduction to get through her missions, whether it be information gathering or assassination. You know she's not a virgin and you know she is highly skilled at manipulation. So her being sexually open is not unexpected, and she never lies to you like Shart does. Shart actually says she's not the third wheel type. So expectations are a large factor in some people's negative reaction to Shart, but not negative reaction to Leliana.
Also, personally, I think Leliana is the absolute coolest romance in the third game and all of her prior flirty and flighty behavior is more than made up for. She became one of my favorite characters.
I would also propose that Zevran is actually secretly a loyal and deep character hidden behind a flip flirter, so he's also different for a different reason. I liked him a lot more over time, while my initial impression was very negative.
Talking about bioware characters from back when bioware was good makes me sad for [current year]. But that's a topic for another time.

>>530107275>and she never lies to you like Shart does. Shart actually says she's not the third wheel type.I don't think this is a lie, her writer is just a dumbass. Shart dumps you for sleeping around in act 2, but becomes the designated poly female romance in act 3. The poly romances weren't written until the very tail end of development. Her writer either forgot or didn't care about how he wrote her prior to that
>>530106285>If I had more long term human looking female love interests

She's monogamous until she decides otherwise, and wields polyamory against the main character to get what she wants without breaking off the relationship. Imagine finding out Mass Effect's Tali wanted to be monogamous in the second game, then suggests a threesome with a man in the third game. In that universe there is only a handful of Talimancers.
>>530107752It's not the greenness... it's the Whoville nose.
>>530107701I actually agree, and that relates to something else I've said many times, which is that I don't hold it against Shart, John is the one responsible for all of the problems. I genuinely believe Shart is a case of the writer failing to keep it in his pants while writing the character, and as the game went on (over the course of several years time) he just lost more and more self control and shame and eventually just threw in the bucket list of what he wanted on screen. So not only is Shart a poly queen in act 3, but the target of her polyamorous inclinations is none other than John's own personal self-insert. It's shallow masturbatory wish fulfillment by an immature writer.
Lae'zel's writer is a poly gay furry, but you see no trace of that in Lazy. Lazy is one of the most monagamous characters in the game, and has a beautiful romance full of poetry. Some writers leave their personal lives at the door and sit down to write their story, and others like john can't.
>>530107868Yeah but Shart has exactly zero lines about Halsin prior to him being written in as a companion. Even though she talks about how hot Karlach is in act 1, she says nothing about Halsin. I don't think the writer considered any of it until he decided that Halsin should be poly late in development, then decided that his female character should go along with it too
>>530107417Asking others to spoonfeed you what happens later in the game you're supposedly playing for the first time is hardly discussion. A tired topic is, by definition, not upsetting because any emotional reaction one might have had is bound to be dulled after two years of repetition. You're just a faggot who can't be bothered to play a game from start to finish without going to google/reddit/4chan for some kind of validation. It's genuinely confusing why something like you picked up the game in the first place.
>>530108316I wouldn't say your emotional reaction is dulled at all. You're seething.
Honestly it's a little problematic just how upset some of you get by getting cucked. Accept it or not, it is the preferred relationship dynamic for many women, and so why should videogames only cater to your insecurities?
>>530108742barely any actual women are poly. it's a gay man or trans thing
>>530108884>barely any women>its a trans thingA lot of women are trans.
>>530108884>barely any actual women are polylol, where are you, rural Idaho?
>>530108141>whoa an alien looks...alien? wtf!
>>530108989Maybe in LA or whatever shithole you are in women are maladjusted and strange, idk
>>530108723I'm calmly calling you a faggot, because that's what you are, avatarfaggotry and inane "new" player questions included. The rest is up to you, although self-reflection might be beyond something that googles what happens at the end of a popular book.
>>530108169>Some writers leave their personal lives at the door and sit down to write their story, and others like john can'tBy the time the epilogue came out, John clearly got reined in a little bit. Not sure if it's because the voice actress is a lesbian, or because of the backlash, but the epilogue doesn't even acknowledge the poly romance with Shadowheart. I don't think it does with Astarion either.
what's your preferred gamer fuel for playing Baldur's Gate: 3
>>530109083Alien or not, it's ugly. Asari have tentacles on their heads. Marve's Gammorah is green. Ahsoka Tano has head tails, and she's orange. They're all hot though. Lae'zel just isn't hot to me. Maybe she's got a cute personality I haven't been able to reach yet, but she's still ugly.

Hurting pretty bad after fighting this bitch ass spider, who I think is a woman transformed into a spider. At least that's what the journals I read imply.
I think Shadowheart got penetrated by this spider more times than she gets penetrated by Halsin in her dreams.

If they stopped acting so spastic then the teasing from anons about the cuck stuff would just be what it is, a funny joke.

Quality game.
I don't get the obsession with romances in this game. They are all literally 3 short paragraphs of dialogue and a short almost soft porn scene and nothing else. Summertime Saga has more fleshed out romances and you actually get real porn. Go play that.
>>530133854Thats fucking ugly though
>>530134262What? You think BG3s plastic looking dolls with no tits and ass are better? And even if this WEG is not to your liking there are literally thousands of them. Go play WEGs. Leave games for people that enjoy them for things other masturbatory fantasies about 'shipping.

>>530137669sexuality is fluid and shart is a lesbian now
Holy shit I didn't realise the Aura of Murder was so good. Actually I guess it's similar to how Shadow Blade users become steroid users with the Resonance Stone.

>>530137971in an interview her va said shart would fuck laezel, kill laezel and marry karlach so you're right she's probably deep down a closet lesbian even in the game
>>530138510Shart's VA is a lesbian no shit, Neil said that Astarion would fuck Karlach, marry shadowheart/gale and kill Wyll lol
Karlach is the alpha female of the group so she is objectively the most attractive.

>>530151105How many fights do you even have left
>play as wyll
>everyone thinks you're hot
The game finally makes sense.
>>530151392I'm basically headed out to the brain now so the potential stun will be purely for use against the red dragon and maybe the Emperor, haven't decided yet if I want to become a mind flayer or not.
>>530151443the one eyed black guy full of scars & wearing the default warlock fit is definitely the hottest character in the party
>>530151105Both are outclassed by a pointy stick with Bhaalist armor anyway.
>>530152273Someone else is already using that. In fact this is actually my first time using the pointy stick with Aura of Murder. I almost never use Lae'zel too so I wanted to take full advantage of her githyanki perks, and the sword has more than done its job in her gith hands.
I guess I'll use the Giantslayer for the sake of using it, as it's another weapon I don't really get a chance to use often.
>>530152273What build do you even use for Bhaalist? Just go straight fighter with maximum poking?
>>530153063Nyrulna/Shar Spear + Bhaalist is basically class agnostic and it's the BIS for any martial (except the ones that have access to Shadow Blade). Fighter, Barb, Paladin, it's the best thing you can do on any of them. Rogues use either Crimson Mischief or Duellist Prerogative as their piercing weapon due to Finesse and sneak attack.
So what level will I finish the first Act as? I'm at level 4 now and feel like I've done so much, even though I don't have Karlach, Gale, or Halsin in my party yet.
>>530161060If you do everything and don't use exploits, around 7.
>>530161060If we include the creche, you can go up to 9. My first time, I hit lv 11 before finishing Act 2. The game is too generous with exp when the level cap is 12.
But if we're talking vague ballpark metrics, lv 7 is generally "good enough" for Act 1, and Act 2 can by done by lv 9.
>try to cast Hold Monster on the Emperor to kill him before the final fight

QUALITY GAME HUH.
why does the brain instantly find you if you kill the emperor in the orb? you still have the orb itself though. it should block out the brain as it did for emperor himself.
>>530164326small family company please understand
>>530164326that assumes you figure it out how to channel Orpheus' power before the Brain notices your protection is gone and forces you to transform.
Whether anyone but a squid can figure out to control Orpheus' power is another thing.
This is my first time doing spell slot cycling and it's crazy. I didn't even need 10 short rest potions to do this.
Just did the party scene at camp. So does Shart not care that Halsin says he killed a Dark justiciar and tried to prevent some Shar ritual. I mean that's like telling a Catholic nun you killed a Bishop and destroyed a holy artefact or something.

Minthara is in DivinityOS2 and Battlefront 2, as well as about half a dozen audiobooks I've bought recently.
Shart is of course one of the protagonists in Ex33.

>>530190416the voices in your video game are not your friends
>>530166918>Whether anyone but a squid can figure out to control Orpheus' power is another thing.That should be the gist of it, but it's overlooked here, because the focus for some isn't on trying to explain the plausible, but trying to find plot holes or inconsistencies, and outsmarting the writers. Basically, a variation of "Why didn't the Eagles fly the Ring to Mordor?" that completely misses the point. It's not even a smart observation in this case, because we are explicitly shown the Absolute is starting to escape control after Ketheric's death.

Durge being a dragon born sorcerer makes no sense when bhaal canonically hates magic and discriminates against non-humans.
>>530210430>bhaal canonically hates magic and discriminates against non-humans.What? Bhaalspawn always came from a great variety of races. He would fuck anything with a womb.
>>530210430the sort of person that plays durge isn't exactly a deep thinker, those sorts of details wont matter
>>530211346That was during the time of troubles where he need to impregnate as many things as possible, durge is supposed to be his hand crafted perfect bhal spawn.
wait bhaal fucked a dragon?
>>530212334bhaal fucked a weresquirrel
>>530211941Makes sense. It's clear they made him a dragonborn by default because they wanted something different that is not a shortstack. Didn't know that bhaal had a bone to pick with non humans. Considering he used to larp as a fucking dinosaur.
>>530211941In bg 2 half the bhaal spawn are humans because he hated fucking non-humans.
>>530212832He could be a self-hating scalie. Hating on non-humans doesn't mean he doesn't want to fuck them.
>>530206231one of the better posts in this shit thread
>>530210430My main problem is that dragonborn look fucking stupid in this game. It's just a humanoid body with the head of a lizard which make any headwear look ugly as hell. In DOSII lizards looked so fucking cool.
>>530216608That's because Divinity lizards are descendants from real dragons.
D&D dragonborn are just alternate dimension randos who are unrelated to dragons beyond the slavery.
>>530208350Death isn't stopping her ass from being noticeably protruding out.
I don't really like the Durge ending where people just magically get impaled by blades.
If Bhaal could do this all along why didn't he?
Instead of pure Honor this time I'm doing custom with Honor ruleset because these two options shouldn't be unique to custom mode and should be a part of the main game.
How does a single city harbor a murder cult, a death cult, a vampire lord and his spawn, (formerly) a coven of hags, necromancers and doppelgangers? What are the Harpers doing?
>>530218389Pretty sure it's because D&D official dragonborn are unimaginative as fuck.
>>530220276The average harper in BG3 is a lvl 5 smuck where the average flaming fist is lvl 10. Harpers are just the equivalent of the neighborhood watch.
>>530220276>>530220881Harpers are spread out all over the realm, and the Flaming Fist are the local cops. So you'd ask what the fuck the Fists are doing. But they're corrupt losers so you shouldn't be too surprised they ain't doing jack shit.
>>530221326>lvl 10 copsThose are some pretty fucking well trained cops. No wonder it's not an American game.
If the companions had access to mouth wash, laezel is the only one who wouldnt use it
>>530222408Halsin wouldn't either.
>>530219147Brain is presumably doing it / helping out and Bhaal couldn't just do it without getting Ao in his ass.
>>530222849And it's suddenly okay because a mortal is technically doing all of it? Ao is a FAG. Bhaal said TECHNICALLY it's not me and he said yeah ok that's fair.
>>530220276>murder cultdidn't resurface until recently and likely aligned with the rise of the Absolute cult.
As the Baldur's Gate branch was then likely organizing the expedition into the Shadowcursed lands, they get a pass on this one.
>a death cultHow Viconia eluded Jaheira is baffling, as she's been there for over 40 years and even managed to infiltrate the high society
>a vampire lord and his spawnGiven that Cazador abducted 7k people, it should've registered at some point.
even over 200 years, that's still at least 3 people going missing per month.
>(formerly) a coven of hagsDon't think Ethel moved into Baldur's Gate until recently
>necromancers A single Necromancer and one that seemingly hadn't made a major fuss past abducting some homeless people.
>doppelgangerscame along with the resurface of the murder cult
They could be more competent but i guess you need to find some villains.
Although Viconia's Sharran cult is a real lapse on Jaheira's part, given that her house is literally right next to the House of Grief.
>>530223560>alaundowho's that
>>530223560It's not Ethel but there is another hag on a nearby island, it's the reason for that imp that reflects 3x acid damage back at you.
>>530221474>well trainedlol they wish
>>530223005No, it's probably not okay. Jergal was sent by Helm, who is just the messenger for Ao so the Bhaal end is considered undesirable even by Ao standards. We only see the aftermath of the bad end starting. Ao will probably have to get off his ass and reshuffle the realms again like the last 5 times Mystra died and he'll be pissed. Bhaal doesn't care though. He is Chaotic Stupid. Bhaal isn't doing this as a long-term "I win" plan, he's just killing as many as he can get away with before Ao gets out of his chair.
I agree with Orin, there is no point in being a murderer if you dont enjoy each one.
Durge and by extension Bhaal is just dumb and lacks artistry.

im about to finish act 2 and i havent had sex yet did i miss out

>>530238284He waits until marriage in act 3 (no I'm not even joking)
>>530237692>>530238284If you danced then you're on the romance track. Wyll can have sex in act 2 if you exhaust all of his romance scenes, but it's rare, for most people it doesn't trigger until act 3 because it's at the end of his other romance scenes. Some characters have sex as part of earlier romance scenes, but he's a old fashioned guy so you don't have sex until after you have a conversation about getting married, which is later in his romance.
Short answer is yes you're fine as long as you danced, Wyll has sex later than most.
How do I bring myself to use untadpoled companions? Brain worms just make you better in every regard.
>>530239109>>530239452I bet Wyll only has consensual sex in the missionary position for the sole purpose of procreating.
>>530240071Yes, but on the other hand, he's actually one of the companions who stays with you even if you turn ghaik. So he's also down with the tentacles.
>>530240071no that's astarion
How does mod compatibility and conflicts actually work in this game? For instance, the mods (See) Invisibility Rework and Invisibility Rules - Movement Line Fix are recommended to use together by the authors, but the author of the latter says Invisibility Rules - Movement Line Fix should be loaded after the former, however, when you extract the files using BG3 MultiTool, there is no overlap or conflicts at all.
If two separate mods can use custom text files that reference or modify internal BG3 data, then how in the actual fuck are you supposed to work out any sorts of usable load order?
>>530240261use bg3mm and physically sort them
>>530202678Spoken like a true grotesque fatty
>>530240332MO2 with the below plugin also lets you directly modify load order without any additional steps, but that doesn't make it any less difficult to figure out what goes where considering a modder can use the Public\ModName\Stats\Generated\Data path and add a random text file called soggy_buttholes.txt that modifies the same things another mod does with a text file called faggot_rodeo.txt. It's almost impossible to create a completely clean load.

are minthara and shadowheart the only female companions that have player model moans done by their own actress? the males moans all sound like they're done by one or two random actors. maybe they're all done by tav 1?
also it sounds like shadowheart's actress is doing the moans for the other female tavs/companions sometimes. some female tavs do have their own moans though

I feel like I have run every decent normal subclass enough times.
Drunk Monk: 16 DEX 14 CON or 14 CON 16 DEX?
Actually which one do you guys think is better overall for martials?

I'm thinking of swapping Shart from Shadow Monk to Shadow Sorc Hexblade after killing Aylin, maybe larping that she's become Shar's champion and starts wielding a literal blade of shadow.
But I still want to have a monk, who should I respec to monk? Lae'zel is throw barb, Astarion is Gloomstalker Assassin. I guess I could do it to Minthara.
Also, does transmog cause any issues if I transmog a spear into a 2h sword? Want to try out the Bhaalist thing but I also don't want to give up the aesthetic for my Durge.
>>530270425>Shadow Sorc HexbladeFucking why? This is a terrible combination. Shadow Sorc is a terrible subclass on it's own but SB hexblade has nothing to gain from dipping in sorc. Take 2-3 levers of fighter champ instead.
>>530271536It was my understanding that the main shadowblade build was shadow sorc and hexblade.
>>530270425At least with the transmog mod I use it changes the base damage and type but keeps the extra effects and enchantment.
>>530271974Mine is just the appearance, I was just worried it would be using the wrong animations or something. I've already done it with similar weapons like 2h swords into 2h hammers.
>>530271706Shadowblade is mathematically the strongest weapon in the game. You want to maximize it's potential. Thus you need more attacks and a lower crit threshold since critical works by doubling the number of damage dice rolled and upcasted SB has 4d8 which is ridiculous. The most optimal built is 9 hexblade with pact of the sword with 3 Champion for improved crit and action surge. For items Resonance Stone is a must since it gives you an aura that makes everyone psychic vulnerability(including you but almost no enemy deals psychic damage) then go for critmaxxing with Knife of the Undermountain King(replacing it with belm can be a net possitive), Risky Ring and the dark justicars helmet(thematic!) until you get Sarevoks helmet and the dead shot bow. Don't forget that hexblade curse also lowers crit threshold. Btw arcane synergy also adds a nice damage boost with Booming Blade so pick that ring up as well. Due to resonance stone this build synergizes beautifully with shadow monk. That is pretty much it.Enjoy one tapping everything(except steel watchers, just use you EB there).
>>530272591I thought you need to be a shadow sorcerer to cast Shadowblade
>>530272843You thought wrong. The wiki is your friend.
>>530272990>The wiki is your friendWell I knew there were some meme builds with it when the ring was the only way to get it, I assumed it was exclusive to one of the new subclasses.
Thanks though.
Is the only thematic race for durge human? Would it be too weird for him to be a drow?
>>530277720>scientists have determined what the average balduran will look like in 1700DR and it's everything
>>530277720you can't play as wyll in a dark urge playthrough silly
>>530278348I thought wyll was a tiefling.
>>530278883Why do w*sterners insist on embarrassing dialogue like Shadowheart’s “he looks…dashing.”
No girl would find this abomination attractive
>>530278348you can create one player multiplayer game. it's good to be wyll and cuck the dark urge keeping him in camp the whole game
Tryna play durge but I'm just not edgy enough
>>530278883no, he's part devil. maybe full devil if mizora dies. wyll has the biggest power curve of all characters. even gale is bound by ao's rules, but devils are powerful and free
>>530279594There are other edgy characters. Gale, Astarion, Shadowheart, Lae'zel
>>530279623Devils job to adventurers all the time. A party of level 12 murderhobos broke in Raphaels home, fucked his boyfriend, stole his shit and smoked his stash and when he showed trying to be all vengeful and shit he got a pike through his ass. Hell the whole story wouldn't have happened if 2 adventurers didn't brake in mephistopheles home and did the exactly shame thing. It is just ol mephisto was smart enough not to show up during the burglary.
>>530279990Well with Mephisto, he thought it was funny to let them get away with it while Raphael was a newkid with a chip on his shoulder. Mephisto also went through waaaaaaaaaay worse like being enslaved for a few decades to a drow matriarch and being her bitch so nothing's going to phase him or piss him off too much.
>>530280312Point is gods aren't routinely humiliated by mortals. Withers is a kind of a fallen god and shrugs you off like you are nothing. As of Ao devils are bound to the blood war which probably worse.
>>530279594just reject the urges
>>530280578You gain literally zero fun or interesting interactions by rejecting the urges. Only humiliation.
>>530280536Dead Three seem to get humiliated regularly.
Also Mystra.
Forgotten Realms gods sound like a gaggle of retards.
>>530283329The dead three were mortals that became gods that became dead that ended up as quasi deities which is in the same power level as demi deities( like Ailyn) and they still make everyone shit their pants mortals, immortals and fiends alike. They are their own thing.

Which subclass feels like it has the best progression?
A class that feels like it always has something to look forward to? You know, the opposite of Champion.
>>530325123All full spellcasters and monks.
>>530325123>Which subclass feels like it has the best progression?Most of them are pretty terrible because most unlock their big upgrades with either 3 or 5 and then possibly one upgrade at 11.
Beastmaster has a more consistent progression but that comes at the price of being utter shit initially.
I guess that's more of a thing for multiclass builds because they dip into multiple classes for upgrades.

>they throw way too many options at you right at the startHonestly I don't see this as a bad thing at all, I love making builds so spending time looking through all the possibilities was really comfy for me.
Nothing forcing you to do that though, just pick Human Male Fighter or Wizard or whatever it will be fine. I ended up going Knife Master Rogue.

I like mods.
>>530357816Jokes on you, I just turn my Wyll into a cute girl.
Who is Gale more likely to want to flirt with? Shadowheart, Karlach, or Minthara?
Actually a Minthara romance sounds like it'd be funny because she constantly refers to him as THE WIZARD because they rarely live long enough to be worth knowing.
>>530365276He already has wizard-hat-tipping lines for Shadowheart.
>>530365276he's honestly most likely to seek the protection of a fighter, i mean he's already gazing at lae'zel's midriff
>>530365902I'm doing a mostly good playthrough so while I have recruited her I don't want to see "Lae'zel disapproves" every time I'm nice. The only reason Minthara is even in consideration is because of how funny I'd find it to have her become his lover and still call him
>THE WIZARD
>>530366450it definitely would be a femdom relationship with minthara
What difficulty mods do you use with 6 player parties to not make it so easy other than more enemies in basic fights and Combat Extender?
>>530365276gale x minthara is fun because of the wizard angle
gale x shadowheart has a cute ending where gale builds a mini wizard tower on the farm
>>530365276Well he had several flirts with Shart in early access before they removed them, so I think that's the answer.
But there's actually a very nice scene at the end of the game after Minthara has been giving him crap all game where they talk at the epilogue party and she shows she does care, so that sort of thing will always be cooler to me imo compared to typical flirting.
Help, I keep making new saves, thinking about new builds, and making new saves!

>mod that spoonfeeds you the approval changes
Soulless.
>>530384170I've discussed this here before, but for some reason all the mods that I've used that do this display several dialogues in Act 2 (and only in Act 2) that no one actually reacts to. Not sure why exactly, but that's the way it is.
Generally it can be ignored once you're at max opinion with everyone, but it's helpful for the first quarter of Act 1, you can micro sending people to camp to avoid penalties as there are a lot of early conflicts with Shart and Lae'zel. If done correctly you can end up starting relations with both of them before you hit the Blighted Village.
>>530384170the approvals are not that extreme there lol but yea everyone looooves karlach. meanwhile astarion approves if you slit laezels throat for no reason
That was easier than I thought it would be.
Is this game good on ps5?
I did find a cantrip based class mod called Warmage, but its progression is as bland as can be, and the modder made the odd choice of having the cantrips all be single target instead of making some of them be beams like eldritch blast.

>>530271706>>530391927There's 3 main ways to build around SB:
>Hexblade variants, either full Hexblade (for hugh level Warlock stuff, Lifedrinker and feat), 9 Hex/3 Champion (crit fishing build, crits are very good since you throw so many dices) or something like Hex 5/Oathbreaker 7 for Smites and auras>Bladesinger 10/Paladin 2, similar to Smites Swords Bard. Very gishy build that can use the Band of Mystic Scoundrel to great effect to do damage and CC at the same time>Some combination of Sorcadin for Quick MetamagicIt's not worth using on EK and Arcane Trickster since they can't upcast it. Pure Sorc sucks at it because it has nothing that helps with attacking.

What the fuck happened to this armor? It's exactly like the first tier of plate armor in the icon, but NOW if a female wears it it has this ugly riveted looking upper piece. Males still get the original version.
Do you remember in DOSII were armours changed their look depending on the race of the one wearing it? Those were good times. Now all armours look the same and helmets on dragonborns a look like an abortion.
>>530404567I specifically remember this riveted bullshit was just on the Protective Plate (from the morgue) but now they all look like it.
Pic related is the same fucking chest and the more potentially feminine looking version is now exclusive to males.

Looks like the only two subclasses that are worth it are Battlemaster and Arcane Archer...what a fucking joke. Fighter got done dirty in this game.
>>530439393Eldritch knight TB Thrower is pretty kino though.
>>530439393Eldritch Knight just booming blades, then attacks three more times.
I think it is THE ooga booga class
>>530443719If a class sucks at the one thing it's supposed to be good at (spells/combat hybrid) then I consider it a failure. Like with Assassin. If all it's good for is multiclassing and not actually being a sneaky ninja assassin, then the subclass is fundamentally flawed. Warlock, for all intents and purposes, is a better combat/spell-casting hybrid than Eldritch knight. And so is Druid, for that matter.

For the GOTY2023, the rigging in BG3 feels surprisingly weak. It's not always noticeable, but issues with elbows and shoulders do stand out.
>>530445731>writing is a mess>dialogue scripting is a mess>bugs out of the ass even after 8 patches and 32 hotfixes>Half finished systems>Unfinished areasAnd you care about rigging?
>>530444419>the one thing it's supposed to be good at (spells/combat hybrid)Its not even a half caster though, its clearly not
>>530446550they did their best
>>530446550>And you care about rigging?Yes. It bugs me.
>>530446550small family company pls understand
the ladder dance bug can stay
>>530447137Nah, They did their best with DOSII. BG3 is good but it's clearly not a passion project.
>>530448393act 1 is
after that they had to scramble to actually the release the game before shartfield
>530448821
Yes Act 1 is the best part with the most varied quests, encounters and environments. It's also completely fucking optional. There is no way that that was intentional.
>>530450081>posting before bump limit for gay pornKill yourself. I'm not moving.
>>530450081Why are you so in love with ugliness?
>>530444762She's holding Shart up with a single hand between her bootycheeks. An impressive display of strength and dexterity
>>530419545Yeah I'm going to be transmogging to the Oathbreaker helmet for her I think imminently.
