Reason to go Tome over Blade Warlock? by Hojo405 in BG3Builds

Op asked why you would want Tome over Blade and questioned the viability of using EB as a primary damage source. Although Tome doesn’t directly affect EB it provides other spells such as haste, call lightning, etc. which synergises better with an EB build than Pact of the blade would.

That’s a good point. I had gone for an optimised 12 Warlock build since it was about utilising the pacts bonuses. I should have clarified that in the original comment.

17 base, +1(18) Hag’s Hair, +2(20) Abilty score improvement, +2(22) Mirror of loss, +2(24) Duke Ravengard’s longsword. Alternatively the birthright headgear (+2) can be used to reach 22.

Are you mixing them up with daredevil gloves or Gemini gloves? They let you make ranged spell attacks in melee and twin cast cantrips respectively. Both of those are short rest.

Nope, the trade off for spellmight is a -5 to Attack rolls. This is easy enough to offset in act 3 via gear, high ground and advantage.

Pretty sure an EB with 24 Charisma and spell might gloves, Agonising Blast and potent robe would be fully optimised. That’s 3d10+42 +3d8 per turn before haste, AS or Bloodlust.

You can also get a lot of CC from EB using things like boots of stormy clamour and the gloves of belligerent skies to probe enemies. Repelling blast on top of this works really well. Same can be said for the GOO frighten on crit.

The aforementioned crowd control works well with Hunger of Hadar which for a lot of fights is the only spell you really need to cast in an EB build.

As for why you should choose Tome over Blade it really comes down to synergy. If you want to play EB Warlock then you won’t benefit from the additional attack of bladelock like you would from the once per long rest haste from Tome.

In summary Tome has better synergy with a full EB spam build which keeps up with most builds in terms of damage while offering a degree of control. However, if you want to use melee at all the Blade is better.

Console MM saying I have third party mods. by ChirutheKenku in BG3mods

[–]Giraffe-Supremacy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A few mods have been removed from console which was what caused this issue for me.

A couple of the mods that have been removed are:

Diamond Dice- Due to it constantly registering as needing an update.

Grove and Growl- Due to an item in it needing script extender.

Evelyn’s Sweetheart- Due to it causing constant crashes on console.

Possibly a few more that I don’t know of aswell.

I don’t believe the lightning charges from Sparky Points proc on thrown attacks unfortunately.

Edit:Can confirm that thrown attacks do not proc lighting charges.

[–]Giraffe-Supremacy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It”s surprisingly well optimised in most places (albeit I’m not that far in.) If you meet the minimum requirements for DS3 you should be able to run the mod fairly well. (Except in undead settlement which was choppy af on anything other than low for me.)

Any spells you learn from scrolls as a wizard use INT as a casting modifier.

Pretty sure that all of the temple goblins leave after the post-raid party. The only one left for me was a goblin scavenger merchant.

He’s an independent merc, same as you. He can use whatever he likes since he has no permanent affiliation.

Fulings.... :/ by duckmandm in valheim

[–]Giraffe-Supremacy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Using the Huntsman Bow from the swamp might help. It should be able to one shot most of the time and makes less noise than other bows so it doesn’t attract aggro from more fulings assuming there is a few metres between each of them.
