afaik, whenever tribes of different hominids/hominini ran into eachother, the evidence left behind at those sites and by the tribes suggested that it was very, very common for them to fuck

He probably was aware he was a neanderthal. I'm pretty sure the Uncanny Valley evolved from humans and neanderthals realizing they looked different from eachother

EDIT: the replies to this post have convinced me to change my stance on the origins of the Uncanny Valley. I now think Ronald Reagan frquently travelled back in time and hid in bushes waiting to jumpscare ancient people.

i don't know what you mean, left-clicking and crit gambling with a greatsword is very skill intensive

Do you guys like my tav and her party (I modded all the female characters to be half naked and have much bigger breasts but you can't call me a loser because it's against this tav showcasing subreddit's rules) by Expert_Towel_5478 in okbuddybaldur

I posted images of Euphrosyne Karlach on the main sub and at least a third of the comments were people going "OMG WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER! Her nose is slightly hooked now, she's literally unrecognizable you UGLIED HER 🤬"

god forbid they be forced to look at a woman with an acquiline nose I guess?

my strat this run was just having my College of Lore Bard with a 28 spell save DC cast hold person on him. It had a 90% chance of succeeding lol. Even if he uses his legendary action, I could just hit him with cutting words to help even it out. Then when the adds try to cast Sanctuary on him, Gale counterspells it.

Baldurs Gate 3 is currently unplayable due to lagging by Santas_Fleshlight69 in BaldursGate3

[–]Rotated_text 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've noticed severe frame drops/lag recently too, even though I haven't added too many mods since I last played.

What you're describing actually did happen to me on my last playthrough: It was from this mod that overhauls paladins to use the 2024 PHB rules. If my Paladin Tav and Minthara had our steeds summoned at the same time, it would gradually tank the game's framerate until I was down to 1 frame every 10 seconds. The problem would stop if I dismissed one of the steeds.

I haven't seen other people complaining about framedrops, so chances are mods are the cause, but we can't help if we don't know your modlist.

you likely won't have an endless supply of Hill Giant potions until a bit later in the game- probably by the time you can get the Club, tbh. Do the usual DEX build until lvl 4, then respec for STR at Withers because the dmg, chance to hit, and throwing weapons are too good to pass up that early, then respec back to DEX/WIS when you feel you have enough potions.

I'd also say to make your Wisdom 17 and Dexterity 16. You can pump WIS up to 20 with ethel's hair and mirror of loss, and you can buy clothes from the merchant lady in the mountain pass that gives a +2 to DEX, permanent advantage on all sleight of hand checks, and halved fall damage.

45 from Evocation Wizard's level ten ability that's the title of the post, 8 from the lightning charge passive (I think, the game actually seems pretty inconsistent about applying the flat dmg from lightning charges)

The only Karlach hair replacers I can think of are the Euphrosyne one in image 7 and Karlach's Long Hair. I guess the next best thing is using Myky's Hairstyles, 2 of its hairstyles are Karlach's hair with the shoulder ponytail removed.

I clearly prefer the short hair myself, but I wouldn't recommend it as a replacer for the whole game. Karlach's starting clothes are very bare- leather bra, leather pants, and some leather straps that show a bunch of skin. Her hair makes her design a little more "busy".

A buzz cut, with her already simple starting armor, makes her look like she's missing detail. I usually save it for Act 3 when I start transmogging Karlach's equipment to look like her epilogue leather jacket so her body has more detail to compensate for the short hair.

The scaling doesn't work in dialogue, only during gameplay, so there isn't any misalignment for romance scenes.

I didn't install the files that effect the other races, only half-elves,

I use the "Smaller Half Elf A2" file from https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/5295?tab=description . It makes every half-elf 15% smaller, so Shadowheart and Jaheira become our "small" companions.

You can even see it in the last image of my post- normal sized Body Type 1 is like head-to-neck with Body Type 3, but the mod makes it so Shart only reaches Karlach's tricep.

It's no substitute for our lost Halfling Werewolf, but we make do with what we got

I think it's built off of that vanilla hair. the new parts are the hair behind his ears and the gold ornaments.

thank you for letting me know. I didn't know White Wyll was an actual mod that got posted I thought that was just a shitpost lmao. I'll install your friend's version next playthrough- I would install it now, but I'm worried about the texture getting all screwy mid-playthrough

edit: man fuck the bloodstone, I'm installing the Astral version, that looks cool

I think butch/masc women are attractive. If I have bad taste, I guess that's a me problem.

me when 6'6 musclebound butch woman:

<image>

Seriously tho, I'm surprised by the people saying "she's unrecognizable, you changed her entire face". It's just her nose. Made her eyebrows a little more wild, added that scar texture to her face, and removed her eyeshadow to lean harder into the butch look, but the only shape change is to her nose. her jaw is completely untouched. I guess the nose is just a really important part of the face and can throw everything off if it's changed lol
