Can I Beat BG3 With A GUN? - Baldur's Gate 3 Is A Perfectly Balanced Game With No Exploits

Ойындар

Welcome to Baldurs Gate 3 where today I am going to be seeing if I can beat Baldur's Gate 3 with a gun and a copious amount of exploits and fun. Today The Spiffing Brit will be investigating if baldurs gate 3 is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits or if the existence of infinite money exploits and speedrunning strategies might make it a bit easier to beat than previously expected. In todays video we will be showcasing some of my favourite Glitches, mods, exploits and bugs that allow you to bypass a huge section of the game.
If this video inspired you to try speed running BG3 then I recommend you checkout the speed running discord they have: / discord
BG3 Gun Mod: www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate...
What you have seen here today is part of a fantastic perfectly balanced gameplay series on youtube where I go from game to game and break them with wacky exploits to gain things like unlimited gold and infinite money all in a fantastic montage. If you enjoyed this then be sure to check out more. The style is similar to RT game and callmekevin in parts. A large influence on this series has come from Valefisk and The Killian Experience.

    One of my favourite RPGs ever does this. Albion (1996) has you starting off on a spaceship before crashing on a planet of monsters and magic. You can get a pistol at the start of the game which is the best weapon in the entire game by a long margin. Only problem is bullets don't exist on Albion, so you only have the ammo you bring with you and no more (at least right until the very end of the game)

    Ah, the item that's too good to use. A classic RPG trope. At least it remains the best item though, so you can save it for the end of the game. Unlike an item that's really good but will suddenly get outclassed in the mid-late game meaning you completely wasted your overpowered early game item (or worse yet, it has a maximum level requirement and becomes worthless - looking at you Bag of Marbles and Really Sticky Glue from WoW).

    FYI even without using mods, there are a couple of really funny exploits in the game, some got patched over time. For example, on release, you could recruit every single party member, even have both Minthara and Halsin in the game, however by doing so, Minthara is kind of broken and any time you make her go back to the camp and back to the team, you generate extra 4 Mindflayer Tadpoles or at least, however many Minthara had in her head. This allows you to have a party with all illithid powers right from the act 1. But that's not all, some buffs that were meant to be only for the limited time, can be permanent. Idol of Sylvanus' buff can actually work for the entire game, you just need to remember to always send it to a camp before long rest, take long rest, take all from the camp box and leaving camp (selecting idol without TAKE ALL will make everyone hostile, it's a bug they still havent fixed). Lathander's Morninglight buff from finishing it's puzzle is amazing because as long as you give it to a party member, have them replaced in camp, you gain it permanently on every non MC companion, you just need to send them to camp, add them back and boom, they have +1 light damage, not much, but there are special items that work specifically if you deal at least 1 light damage, so it already allows the game to be broken. Also the Essence of Mana was weirdly coded, if you keep turning it on and off and then taking the item that gives it to you, you gain infinite spell slots, this allowed my Bard to solo the game on tactician because it was just that broken.

    That's around the time my first playthrough took me as well. Around 140-150 hours. But after that, it gets quicker. After having beaten the game on tactician it takes me around 2 long rests per act to get through them so around 6-8 hours of playtime. My current run is absolutely ridiculous. It's a friend and me. He plays a Light Cleric and I'm cobbling together a build. Warlock/Paladin/Fighter. And I just killed the second phase of the Act II final boss with 3 attacks. We are using a wizard/sorc for haste and AoE damage, Astarion whatever you need a thief for which is a lot of stuff. His light cleric absolutely trivializes group fights because he just stacks debuffs on everything every turn. One of our enemies today had 21 stacks of radiating orb. That's a -21 to all of this enemie's attack rolls. If it's not a crit, it's not going to hit and then he will impose disadvantage on that crit so it goes away anyway. This party does not need a healer, because for that you would have to take damage. And my characters damage output is absolutely insane. Honestly this build has no right to be dealing this much damage since none of my classes go above 5. But it works insanely well.

    Don't know if they fixed it in Patch 3, but if you have a controller and are right next to a trader, you can first go into controller mode with an A press (X on a PS controller), then initiate a conversation with another A, then Y (Triangle) to go into the trade window. (Important thing is to only press A and Y Buttons, not anything else) When you are inside the trading window press Right Click to switch back to mouse and keyboard mode and now you can send the Traders Inventory(even their gold) to your camp, just like you can do with your own items. You won't lose relationship or get accused of being a thief as well, unless you use the items while still trading.

    I love this game. Was really struggling on the Balthazar fight when I first fought him, gave up on killing his minions or trying to talk my way through it... snuck up behind him and thwapped him on the head with Lae'Zel and to my amazment, without realizing what I did... I silenced him. Sussur bark greatsword always hit for more than 25 so I kept it on after crafting it in act 1. 0 minions and he died in under 3 turns, easiest fight in the game. The blighted village had so much depth to it, none of it tied to quests besides the blacksmith note. I went back because I knew there had to be more to it and everywhere I looked I found something new and cool. Spider caves, weird hairy poontang, secret basement blacksmith, and some friendly ogres with a love for food. That was what made me fall in love with BG3 and its the first damn POI (though it took a second look).
