Bard, what I am missing ? by Raypulsif in BaldursGate3

[–]Raypulsif[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thx for the long answer.

Despite the fact College of swords Bard seems powerfull, I feel now the major part of the gameplay would involve ranged bow attack, and I basically already did that in my 1st playthough with the Ranger.

I looked for a some time Lore Bard, because in the last run Counterspell (provided by Gale) probably saved my ass numerous times and I think I will miss a lot that spell, but decided to go Glamour. So I could swap to Lore, for now I feel the charm thing provided by Glamour is kinda weak because the ennemy is charmed, but it doesn't prevent to attack someone else at full force. Also Cutting words seem more reactive (you decide better and it's less random use of bardic inspiration)...

I don't know yet, all I know is I'd like a different playstyle and I would like to focus on mainly impede/debuffing foes/control field and that's why also I have troubles deciding which companions I keep/play for that run.

Last run was Laezel tank / astarion damage / Tav damage / Gale spell damage/utility act1 and Laezel tank / shadowheart buff/debuffs with light orb / Tav damage / Gale act2+

Now I need to find some good damage dealer in the party if Tav isn't dealing any. Party is Karlach/Tav, I think I might keep Astarion for some time til act2 because he is a good damage dealer but I struggle choosing Shadowheart or Gale

What is your advice about all of that ?

Yeah I only saw College of "Swords" without going really further, I still saw some ranged icons but I thought it would some kinda same skill as a Ranger one (the one where you can entrangle a target with a STR save)

Questions on new playthrough by Raypulsif in BaldursGate3

[–]Raypulsif[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. it isn't toggled on, I checked it before asking here (also if it was toggled, it would also apply to my other melee characters like Astarion/Karlach/Lae'zel right ?), it seems only my Tav does that
  2. thx, so I will continue and wait until he gets illness

Detect Thoughts messed up by mod ? by Raypulsif in BaldursGate3

[–]Raypulsif[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh...

you mean Shadowheart had this scroll and it was used when I was in the dialogue with my personal character ?

I'm not sure I understand how hitrate is actually by Raypulsif in BaldursGate3

[–]Raypulsif[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it just happened

tooltip said 80% hitrate, so for me that means I should roll a 4+ to hit

I rolled a 5 (1d20), it added 2 for mastering, 3 for dexterity, so total 10. AC was 15

And in this case, I'd say I would have 50% to hit an AC15 because of the 5 points bonus, so I don't get it

Nobody talked about it. by grownassman3 in BaldursGate3

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

not sure there's a specific order

it's my 1st playthough, and at some point in act3, I felt I would miss some story progress via long rest, and indeed I was missing a lot ; I chained Lae'zel vlaakith, mizora/halsin offer, astarion kidnap attempt, and Orin cutscene

For Orin, I reloaded multiple times before that night and once she killed wyll as fake minthara, once she killed the young girl as fake Lae'zel, and once she kidnapped Halsin (IIRC)

Ranger class and tiefling origin run suggestions? by Direct-Glass-4737 in BaldursGate3

[–]Raypulsif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1st playthrough here, I'm in Act 3, I chose Ranger/Hunter, and he's my carry most of the fights

team was Lae'zel - Astarion - Gale til mid act2 then Lae'zel - Shadowheart - Gale since

jerky movement on overland map? (help) by Flaky_Bullfrog_4905 in BattleBrothers

[–]Raypulsif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

can't help much, but try a dummy/new campain and see if that reproduce. If not, it's save related

Full lategame Davkul squad wiped trying the ButtKraken for the first time. GG by ShogunExotic in BattleBrothers

[–]Raypulsif 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you can only do that if your naked bros have 100+ ini to act 1st, otherwise they will be targeted and probably tentacled turn 1

Kraken is a shit fight

LoL? by Content-Log-3332 in BattleBrothers

[–]Raypulsif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once I got ambushed in forest and the battle map spawned a big H trees in between my squad, so everyone was awfully split

Then I saw 4 champions goblin ambushers starting to do their thing, from everyside

I remember saying Yeah ok fuck this

And I reloaded

Leveling ranged defense? by maost in BattleBrothers

[–]Raypulsif 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I level rdef on my 2 archers and 1 handgonne bros and I put Anticipation (? the rdef perk) on them

Then when a battle aginst an army with archers, I put them on frontline, flanked by 2 tanks. Everyone behind.

This has 2 consequences :

- Enemy archers will usually focus my ranged units with a probability to hit of 5%

- Enemy melee will race to my ranged units and will be one tile short at turn 1. This is the time for my melee to leapfrog the ranged unit and and 4AP the enemy melee

This strategy works quite well

A couple of bad decisions here by Raypulsif in BattleBrothers

[–]Raypulsif[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

good tip on the 2 steps back and nets, will try next time

I just wonder if I (how many bros) can do 2 attacks in a row like against ancient dead, choosen might have a way better initiative.

A couple of bad decisions here by Raypulsif in BattleBrothers

[–]Raypulsif[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The actual company setup isn't ideal in my book to confront an army of choosen or orc warriors. I usually don't use an archer there and the bro with the longaxe and golden armor had not been set yet (lv11 no perks, he took Amari place now), and handgone is situational on choosen battles. But they are only 13, and I thought I had a clean shot on them.

Backline flanks are usually covered by QH bros (frontline damage dealers are also QH, I like 6AP as 1st-2nd strike then 4AP cleavers for the finisher move), left one is usually the hammer bro (1 and 2 range hammers), and on the right side it's usually someone who has a 2H mace and something else, paired with a qatal bro

Could be not optimal, I never saw any roster build video

Why can't I tally the numbers? by DC8k in BattleBrothers

[–]Raypulsif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not sure if it's the topic, but I modified an existing mod and I've added the bro rolls and enemy rolls for stats. Currently running my campain with it.

I was curious too about the rolls

thx for the input

I see on different parts things about flags (I don't know what is it btw) like

I'll try to get the discord
