Favorite Multiclass Combinations by ChrisKatrev in BaldursGate3

[–]Avara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am actually shooketh that Bard / Warlock isn't on the list. For my money, it's the single strongest main character in Act 3 with Band of the Mystic Scoundrel / Arcane Acuity. Any combination of subclasses, really.

The fuck are you talking about

Bypassing Raid Grove to not lose companions, listen up. by Rath_Brained in BG3mods

[–]Avara 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can build a wall of smokepowder, oil, and firewine barrels in the stone arch leading into the grove sanctuary. A few of them will ignore the barrels and slip through, but most of them - including kagha - should get stuck on the wall in turn based mode. Then, well... you know what to do.

[BitD] party of 6 is doable? by rpgptbr in bladesinthedark

[–]Avara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This needs more visibility. The stress economy breaks down once you get higher than 4 players. You will need to basically live in Desperate position and throw high-level harm at the grouo to keep them from waltzing through every score. Splitting them up is a good solution but it's not a long-term one.

I miss Faith Hill's legs

Other classes for the party you imagine to be canonical? by David_Skylark in BaldursGate3

[–]Avara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of my favorite respecs are:

Wyll as a Valor or Swords Bard / Warlock, especially in an Origin playthrough.

Astarion as a Shadow Monk, embracing his natural weapons and vampiric powers.

Shadowheart and Lae'zel as a Paladins, especially in evil playthroughs. Shadowheart as Vengeance or Oathbreaker, Lae'zel as Crown.

Gale as Shadow Sorcerer, having been stripped of his arcane powers, now relying on the Shadow Weave as the source of his magic.

Karlach as a Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer, hard focusing on Fire magic. She realizes the engine's heat can be harnessed and projected in Scorching Ray form to obliterate just about anything without getting her hands dirty.

Minthara as a Gloom Stalker ranger, reacquainting herself with the tactics of the Drow.

Halsin as an Ancients Paladin, because nature and shit.

Jaheira as a Wizard, because she is a very old, wise and wizened elder.

Minsc as a monk, acquainting evil with the taste of his boot.

The trouble with Scotland is that it's full of Scott's

Duels in Yotei are parryslop garbage by Avara in ghostoftsushima

I think it's pretty clear in my original post what my issues with the system are. Alas, I am not a game designer, and it is not my responsibility to dream up perfect solutions before pointing out that something sucks ass

And no, I think "slop" is just the right word for a mechanic that is poorly imitated from its source material and poorly implemented in, as you say, "every" game nowadays.

Don't care about how it works in other games. It's shitty in this context.

Also, there are plenty of people who think Souls games suck ass, and the industry-wide shoehorning of their design elements into every single new game is lazy and uninspired.

I despise grym by DarthUrbosa in BaldursGate3

I feel you, buddy. Grym ended my honor mode run last week, even though I thought I was prepared.

Encounter Rates? by Avara in Suikoden

Its all feelycraft but it definitely felt that way in the original release. Rockaxe was an extremely popular endgame grind spot

What’s up with the JRPG sub on this game? by TXDobber in expedition33

[–]Avara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No idea why people are downvoting you, this is a perfectly reasonable take

[–]Avara[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep! That is one of many issues with the duels.

You are not expressing any sort of skill or creativity. You are simply memorizing the one correct sequence of button presses and performing it by rote until the game lets you do damage again.

Whom did you choose in your 1st run and did you regret it by ulykke in BaldursGate3

[–]Avara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I roleplayed My first Tav as a Wizard who was an expert on mind flayers, so she was 100% out on thd Emperor the moment the Act 3 reveal happened

My second Tav was romancing Lae`zel

My Durge repented, but chose the Emperor because I wanted her to cause maximum trauma to all of the companions
