Baldur's Gate 3 - Auntie Ethel's Potions Effects - Drink them all!

Ойындар

If you're too impatient for the video, here are all the effects of the potions -
Broken Promises = strength + 2 til next rest, then indefinitely reduce it by 1.
Faltering Will = disadvantage on wisdom saving throws until long rest.
Heart of Stone = Resistant to poison damage until long rest.
Insanity Kiss = Turn hostile to all for 5 turns, or until you beat them down.
Lost Time = AC reduced by 2 + no reactions 50 turns
Lovers Avarice = Wisdom indefinitely reduced by 1 (til long rest?)
Missing pet = disadvantage ability check and attack rolls for 3 turns
Mother's Loathing = You gain the ability to bite people until long rest.
Still Born = 1d6 piercing damage for 4 turns
Wilted dreams = Take a bunch of damage after long rest.
The only two good potions are Heart of Stone and Mother's Loathing.
Technically, if you have a good throwing arm, you could turn an enemy insane by hitting them with the "Insanity Kiss" potion, but its quite unreliable.
Or you could just give all the potions to your least favorite character and keep them at camp forever!

    Judging by the amount of blood on the ground I wouldn't call that a weak poison

    You can actually remove some of these “curse” effects that the potions add with the remove curse spell. Can also remove it by fully dying and then reviving, but doing that will also remove certain buffs, like Loviatar’s Love.

    Ahhh, I was going to say, could we keep the +2 to strength while remove the -1 to strength? It would turn the potion into a weak, strength potion, but still maybe useful.

    Ah you're talking about the basilisk potion to turn the guy from stone back to flesh? I was thinking where the heck did I pick that up too, but I want to say it was in the Cellar of the blighted village. The crazy part is that there is only one of those potions around. I still have mine because when I used it on the guy he just well died. I think it was because I left Auntie Ethel alive...so that was an issue.

    Ah that vitality potion! Yes, I was actually looking for that too! I am convinced it doesn't exist! The reason is that, because I have been stealing everything off camera and have chests full of everything organized and the potion chests, I do not have a potion of vitality. It might in a vendor's shop, but I do not see it currently, but now I am curious where it could be if one exists at all!
