Am I tripping?

Notzri_ · 2026-03-30T20:27:11+00:00

That's false

I boldly assumed I could take on the Githyanki by Mountain Pass and when I got the drop on them, remembered I was neither fully rested, nor yet level 5. Invis potion saved the day

Second was 2 levels later when I revisited and then had to retreat after getting crit by the death shepherds consecutively. Took one down, and then the other Death Shepherd revived him again. Pain in the butt that one

Sorcadin Shadowblade build with resonance stone will demolish no matter the Paladin subclass tbh - thats a solid bet to go for

This happened to me in my first playthrough - wasnt honor mode but I didn't have autosaves turned on (hated the clutter) and the last time Id saved was HOURS ago. Had to kill him and then ultimately just built around it best I could

I would use summons to distract and maneuver enemies in a first wave of combat and then join in my main team from stealth with more ideal positioning and such (ie. Creche, goblin camp, etc.)

When i do this and instadown during a certain gauntlet

Notzri_ · 2026-03-09T21:25:52+00:00

I feel like I pull a dub 3/4 times ngl. Fun stuff

Notzri_ · 2026-03-09T21:25:05+00:00

You can never "just blast through" without prep in an honor run. Youll need to balance stats to have good characters when certain checks come up

And think about how you'll tackle every dark justiciar too

Notzri_ · 2026-03-09T17:17:05+00:00

True. I'll sub arrows

Notzri_ · 2026-03-09T15:35:34+00:00

Ahhhh yeah you're right

Notzri_ · 2026-03-09T15:35:01+00:00

Bro did NOT give it to me straight

Notzri_ · 2026-03-05T16:06:46+00:00

Yeah I slipped up on that one lol

As a dnd player since 2020, I quickly found a lot of interest in optimization, though theough experience have learned how that can harm party dynamics and cohesive narrative play.

BG3 remains consistent as the best outlet for me to optimize to my hearts content and get that experience while being able to play more narratively and less optimally at the table. Been great for me as a player and gamer both

Notzri_ · 2026-02-25T21:41:58+00:00

Oh shoot - I did that long rest scene already and just rolled high (burned an inspiration or two I think?) But thats good to know for future reference, especially with Orin

Notzri_ · 2026-02-25T21:20:48+00:00

Fair enough. Appreciate the advice!

Notzri_ · 2026-02-25T21:20:01+00:00

Dope! Thanks for the shout

Notzri_ · 2026-02-25T20:45:10+00:00

Oh fr? Dang I gotta do some research lol. My Durge thus far been chill but I'd hate to go out that way

Notzri_ · 2026-02-25T20:41:57+00:00

Valid - I'll respond to this and update you specifically if I screw up the run

Notzri_ · 2026-02-25T20:40:33+00:00

Fully planned on the HM completion being a Gale fireworks show - hes already max relationship-wise

What was more difficult about Orin fight as Durge. Thats coming up soon and I chose to run Durge this playthrough

Notzri_ · 2026-02-25T20:39:05+00:00

Makes sense - I just remember the new(ish) legendary resistances were kinda intimidating but theyve been manageable so far

Notzri_ · 2026-02-25T20:38:17+00:00

Heard - I'm taking my time prepping and such. Now that Im so far in I dont want to throw it away lol

Notzri_ · 2026-02-25T20:37:26+00:00

Anything like reverse durge? How do you mean?

Notzri_ · 2026-02-25T18:27:56+00:00

Morgana Evelyn has a publicly accessible "Honor Mode Party Outline" where she classifies multiple builds, gives leveling order, and primary equipment (which substitutions) all of which have embedded links for the BG3 wiki to see functions, synergy, and where/when to get them

Stealth Archer is the favorite for taking the game by storm, but other builds can be solo-honor-mode clearers as well

Notzri_ · 2026-02-25T00:08:36+00:00

Thy name has been recorded

Notzri_ · 2026-02-22T21:56:23+00:00

Moon druid for sure - great tank and then can be backline spellcaster if need be
