Please remember that 99.9% of humans that play a crpg, on their first full run will make mistakes / forget about new features etc. It is part of the experience. If you think you are above that you are wrong. Takes me a little to get into the habit of using extra attack for example. Feel free to comment on mistakes made, but no need to be an ass about it. Also note that I am already 17 episodes into this! So feedback is appreciated, but these are already mostly recorded. LOVING the new content.

It still isn't clear to me what Gale did that was so terrible from Mystra's perspective. It sounded like he was trying to do a good thing but ended up falling into a trap. Why would she just abandon him for that?

@moosepotato4116

10 ай бұрын

Basically, in an effort to impress and gain trust of Mystra, Gale attempted to return part of Mystryl's original form or original magic back to Mystra. This backfired, and the result of that backfire is a piece of the weave, totally unstable and violently dangerous, being left inside Gale's physical form. Gale wants to experience magic in a totally unfiltered and boundless way, so he seeks to be a god. His love for magic is greater than his love for Mystra, which is why he performed whatever act resulted in having the orb inside him. That's what he did that upset her. She had already told him not to attempt these things and he didn't anyway, betraying her as a god and as a lover.

So, the deal with Guardian of Faith (at least in the tabletop edition of 5e) is that it's an incorporeal being that stays in one spot, deals a set amount of damage, and then vanishes. Sending in summoned creatures like the zombies is probably the easiest way to deal with it-- it seems Larian actually made it *easier* to handle by giving it HP and making it possible (if difficult) to damage it, so you wouldn't be forced to have your party take the hits.

Loving the content man! You definitely know your stuff, I've missed about 80% of the stuff you didn't so be so hard on yourself for any mistakes/ mess-ups. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the ranger playthrough and excited to see what class you make next.

Spike growth and cloud of daggers is a insane cc aoe combo that I’m gonna be rocking in my games, set it up at a choke point or agro enemies through it and you’re set

Great Series. Held up on Episode 10 as I am trying to work through the story slightly ahead of where your episodes are. So that I don't see too many spoilers, but the urge to watch more is high. Great work my friend. Haters gonna hate. Keep doing what you are great at which is producing excellent content.

Man I remember when I first ran into these guys tried so many times to kill them that I gave up and explored the underdark and found a way to moonrise that way. Then once I got lvl enough I took care of them with ease.

So funny. Had the exact same thing with Shadowheart being less than 100 xp from level 5 at the same place in the game.

As someone who has read FR since he was a boy, and that was many years ago indeed lol, I’m loving this play through. Especially Elminster! The novels are awesome. The one thing I’m saddened by is he doesn’t have his magic pipe. Probably because it’s 2023, but that pipe is amazing and worth a king’s ransom in a gameplay setting lol

Bro Mystra and Elminister be like: Yadayadayada *fancy speech* but basically what we actually mean: Kamikaze yourself Gale TBF I guess Wolf didn't hesitate to sent in his boar as a kamikaze either, so I suppose it just means Mystra views Gale as a Boar. (also it was the bless that made the magic allergy go off, not the magic weapon)

So cool how the play through are different. The Kobolds I encountered first and you had them last. Also I think you might have blew them up. But I had like 3 kobold inside the alcohol barrels. 😅 was pretty funny.

I've never considered myself particularly sensitive to sound but when fighting those drunks at the end there was some lapping water sound or something that kept playing that was driving me up the wall

Guardian of faith is a 4th level cleric spell. However it does not exactly work as depicted here: it does not attack, it’s closer to an aoe dot. It does a fix amount of damage to any hostile coming close to it with a dex saving throw to reduce damage. It hurts itself each time it does damage and can be attacked to reduce its duration.

This game is so amazing, its so good I dont want to nit pick. That being said, the game could really use a full team menu. Like the inventory screen etc. that pops up for your current group. But one that has everyone you have recruited, so we can swap gear around and check skills. And maybe a way to retrieve a member from camp without going to camp. We can already dismiss team members whenever, but getting a full team menu and an option on said menu to summon ppl from camp would be so helpful.

you can cast longstrider on your whole party because its not concentration and it does'nt use a spell slot because its a ritual so its a free 10ft for your whole party. Also if you do aid after summoning your animal it will get the extra hp, its worth casting it using higher level slot for the extra hp. I really like your playthrough!

At the 2:39:04 time mark, my man used a short rest, to gain 4! HP. Can’t remember the fighter and barbarian have 2 attacks. Uses all of his spells in 1 small combat, when cantrips are just as good. Little combat, little spells.

Takes me a while to get used to having extra attack after not having it in 90% of early access. Short rests are in ample supply so it’s ok to use it even if you don’t need the full benefit (since you are critiquing me I would think you would know that!). Long resting is very easy on balanced so yes you can use all your spell slots if you want to on a small encounter. Spells are more fun than cantrips.

So you are keeping me informed (& somewhat patient while waiting - lol) as to what my chars will be facing. I have three PCs I plan to try with, all different, & working with the chars BG3 has given us will be fun, varying their builds slightly to make effective teams. (So I guess I'll learn thru three different games - idk if can play multiple games at once or not, but had better take notes along the way.) But I am definitely going to buy a couple shovels - lol. I do need to learn more about the gods though, since my first PC is to be a sorcerer(draconic)/cleric(Life/Lathander? - it fits the character). I played with her elsewhere & want to try her in BG3. I only got her to level 7 total before I had to leave the group. I've learned so much since then, because I started watching Critical Role & watched their whole first two campaigns.
