D&D General BG3 Massive Spoiler Thread

[Seramus]

I think a reasonable amount of barrel use is fine. Eg, whatever the game has lying around in the immediate fight area is fair game. Stockpiling them is where I draw the line though.

I'm also much more willing to use oil, water, and other non exploding barrels than exploding ones.

I mean, I used de-group and feather fall myself the first time. It was very tedious, but it did work. Using items to cover the vents worked so much more quickly. And you can't tell me that some actual D&D groups wouldn't come up with a "cover the vents" strategy in tabletop play.

If there was material there, sure. I'm not going back to the Goblin camp to load up Karlach, again. Lol

Speaking of hilarious amounts of Barrelmancy, this is probably the most delightful I've seen for BG3.
Right up there with Owlbear Bombing.

I saw that yesterday I think, the lord of memes himself.

I'm still in awe and wondering how many barrels and how long it took to set that all up.

I didn't go all in, but definitely used a variant of the Owlbear bomb at the Adamantine Forge.

Finally through Act 2

I got annoyed with the spectator by the ruined Selûnite outpost, so I just put four barrels down at the spot it normally went to after the first round, and brought it down to single-digit HP in one fire arrow shot. It was very satisfying after multiple tries with multiple characters failing paralyzation saves and getting mauled by it...

The hag is dead! Hardest part was getting to her.

Found the Druid. Unfortunately he wants me to kill everyone before leaving WTF that messes up my plans.

Hope the Zent Gnome girl pops up again. Cute and has some nice items for sale. Don’t want to kill her if I don’t have to

You don't have to do what Halsin tells you (although not doing so leaves the tiefling refugees out to dry).

I don't think she does, but there are more zhents you can make friends with elsewhere in Act 1. No need to kill her.

Do I push ahead and finish the Gauntlet, or go back and clean up all the other Act 2 quests?
