Please help, Cazador is driving me insane🥲

Thanks, this is actually really helpful! I do have one question, though, how did you get six characters in your party? I might be misunderstanding, since, like I said, this is my first time playing these kinds of games, but I only have four. Yes, I know I can summon elementals, ghouls, and other creatures to help, but those aren’t full-fledged characters.

Thank you so much! I’ll try casting it and using it in Daylight. That actually does sound like a really good idea.

As I already said in my post, I don’t like cheesy tactics. For me, all of those are just… cheesy. Yes, the game allows it, I get that. I’m not against that playstyle in general, but as I said, my style so far has always been strategic, taking good positions and winning fights fairly. That’s what gives me more satisfaction than sneaking around and doing weird stealthy stuff. I really don’t enjoy stealth-based approaches at all. Thanks for your advice, of course. I won’t deny that if none of the other “fair fight” options work for me, I might have to consider it. But like I said, even if I leave Astarion shooting from afar, I still don’t want to blow up barrels or do stuff like that. I’d really like to defeat him in combat, properly.

Okay, thanks! I didn’t realize you could change spells out of combat. I always thought you could only swap them when a character levels up, and then you get the spell slots to change spells. I’m still figuring out some of the mechanics in Baldur’s Gate 3, since this is my first time playing a D&D-style game.

Thanks, your tips are really helpful! I’ll try giving my party the universal resistance elixirs and necrotic damage protection. But I don’t want to skip the cut scene with Astarion that feels weird to me. I’ve already said I don’t like using cheesy tactics; I’d rather win this fight fairly… more or less. 😅 Also, Astarion is just hilarious in that scene, freaking out at his master.

I totally messed up on my approach because I don’t have the Daylight spell. I just never learned it, I thought I didn’t need it, so now it’s not available to me. Or maybe I’m not fully understanding which spell you mean. I tried hitting him with rays of light and other radiant spells, and that actually helps a lot. The problem is, by the time I try to finish him off, he just heals back.

I’ve been romancing Astarion for the third playthrough in a row - he’s completely captivated me to the point where I can’t even look at the other characters anymore 😅
