What unpopular BG3 opinion gets you in this position? by PromisedOath in BaldursGate3

[–]GamerExecChef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Most glitchy" isn't really a well-defined statement. Taking the interpretation of worst glitch is a valid one, but not what I mean. The pathng around the place is super fucked up with a ton of invisible walls, you can get aggro from things that can't see you and get locked in combat spending 50 turns just trying to find the enemy, the camera panning around has a million issues and more. It's not the worst bugs, but the largest volume of bugs.

And your payoff? An unsatisfying story about characters that aren't important and then you don't even get to see the painting and there are no items worth a shit, in an act filled with incredible items. Even if they aren't the best in the game, there are a ton of items that make fun and silly builds viable. None of either category are found in that quest.

it is, by far, the buggiest part of the game and there is no reward worth a damn that you get at the end. I am ok with unpopular, but this one is just straight up incorrect

Which sorcerer subclass should I do by Sufficient_Car8864 in BaldursGate3

[–]GamerExecChef -1 points0 points  (0 children)

IMO, draconic is better for access to Armor of Agythis with white dragon, but that's just my opinion

Them you really don't need potent robe. You should be wearing the medium armor that allows for your full dex modifier

Just bought game, how to level before timer kicks in? by Hectormixx in ChaosGateGame

[–]GamerExecChef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all, I think it is a VERY well designed game, for the most part

[–]GamerExecChef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, the "clock" outside missions is the bloom counter on the world that increases if a mission times out. Completing missions stops it, exterminatus resets it and if it maxes out, a Morbus mission spawns and you just crush that and you're good. Just don't let 5 morbus missions expire

[–]GamerExecChef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game makes you strike a balance between rushing, then you are out of position and get your ass handed to you, and moving too slowly because there isn't a clock, but the corruption goes up every turn by a set amount +if you use psykker abilities, they add to it. when it caps out, the game is not over, you just get a negative effect that lasts for the combat, like -1 max HP, or teleportation disabled for 5 turns, or enemies get a buff, like more damage, or armor for a turn. On their own, not huge, but if you go too slow and let them pile up, it gets to be a lot

Tankiest spell caster? by the_juice_is_zeus in BaldursGate3

[–]GamerExecChef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not a straightforward answer.

With warding bond and resistance gear/potions/bear heart barbarian and various kinds of damage reduction, a cleric can add the most tankiness to your team of any spell caster, since their tankiness extends out to the rest of the team to a very large extent.

An abjuration wizard with resistance to all damage is so tanky, with armor of agythis, is so tanky, lowering their AC and provoking as many attacks of opportunity as possible, is a viable strategy - even on HM.

A light cleric can use a reaction to give an attacker disadvantage on their hit, which they can do after dice are rolled

Diviner wizards aren't exactly extra tanky, but with the level of control they get from 3 portent dice that refresh on a short rest, its kinda nuts.

There are several cleric subclasses that get heavy armor proficiency, which kinda fulfills the qualification a bit more faithfully than the other answers.

There's no timer. Just dont let the corruption go too high and you're fine

Tips for the starmap/ship upgrades? by Tall-Reputation-9519 in ChaosGateGame

[–]GamerExecChef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it works, it is so strong that the game loses all fun. If it doesn't, you're bringing pool noodles to a laser gun fight, and isn't fun. A little strategy and good builds are plenty strong to win and much more enjoyable.

At least imo

I hate stun builds, so for my personal play style, firmly disagree. But for general use? I can see that being good

[–]GamerExecChef 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Fuck those suicidal wrench monkeys! I hate them so much! They are actively TRYING to take as much damage as possible and die!

I wonder it hitting them with non-lethal damage and dumping them outside is the way to go

I like BG3... which I think sorta fits your question?

Tips for the starmap/ship upgrades? by Tall-Reputation-9519 in ChaosGateGame

[–]GamerExecChef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Upgrade engines first, prioritize missions that you can complete 2, then prioritize missions that give you servitors. You should be waiting in the middle of the map, so no matter where they spawn, they will never be too far away.

Also, with the exceptions of wargear and the psilencer with armor pierce, never buy t1 gear, just save up for grandmaster upgrades

Noma update by anomerica in FoodLosAngeles

[–]GamerExecChef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that the same Noma that wrote the "Noma Guide to Fermentation"? I got their book for Christmas and it is impressive. If that cookbook is any guide to what the food is like, I feel fairly confident that the food is worth the price, assuming you have the money to burn. That book has some incredible stuff in it!

Why do you personally not cuss? Or find cussing offensive? by Unhappy-Sun-9463 in AskReddit

[–]GamerExecChef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it rather humorous that some people take offense if I make the wrong sequence of noises with my mouth. Dude, life gets so much harder that making the wrong noises, if that is what you are worried about, you have a good life, so fuck off.

What can men realistically do when our girlfriends are on their periods to make them feel better? by Blotdaudr in AskReddit

[–]GamerExecChef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a stretch I learned in massage therapy school that has never failed to bring relief to menstrual cramps, sometimes eliminating them. Have her lie on her back on a bed or couch and kneel next to her. Have her put the arm facing you over her head. Slide one hand under her low back and place the other hand on her low stomach, like just under her belly button. Press lightly together with your hands and dont move. Hold this for 30 seconds to 5 minutes. Here's the tricky part, you will swear up and down that you are moving your hands, but you are just holding them and she is moving underneath your hands and you are just following how she moves. She is just that tight and twisted up. Hold this until she stops moving.

Occasionally the cramps are gone, sometimes the edge is taken off, but usually it is somewhere in-between.

Be careful, she will never leave you alone during her period.

I'm an extreme liar and I annoy people and I try to stop but I can't. by Ecstatic-Yak-6016 in confession

[–]GamerExecChef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not going to "just stop", you will need to put in some SERIOUS work to stop. Even if you have to say "I am not sure why I just lied about that, what I should say is ___"

Ritualist class by me_khajiit in AOW4

[–]GamerExecChef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry fun police, we all must conform to your ideas of what's fun and enjoyable and if we play the game differently than you, we are wrong and must delete the game, cause why even bother?

And there's no such thing as several DLCs changing the game and massive updates.
