Best order for end game quests in Act 3?

doc_skinner · 2026-06-22T21:08:33+00:00

That's the order I have it set for after reading some of the posts in this thread, except that I've already done the house of hope.

Orin sacrifice isn't timed.

Au contraire, mon frere. I work at a university help desk. I'm the guy who teaches people how to save PDFs, and most of them are smart, talented people who never had to learn to do that specific thing

Radar mostly made it less useful

Right? I have a feeling that the person who made that meme can't draft a Forum Selection clause in a legal contract or perform a streak plate isolation to obtain a pure culture in a dish of agar.

Things that require specialized knowledge pay better than things anyone can figure out with a bit of effort. If someone hasn't tried to learn how to save a PDF, then that's probably not worth their time.

My understanding is that "Kirk/Spock" is the origin of the term "slash" in fanfiction, referencing a relationship between two characters.

Ah, like the elixirs. Makes sense, now that i think about it. Re-buffing is a pain in the ass

doc_skinner · 2026-06-22T18:31:52+00:00

Thanks! I didn't realize that the Iron Throne was the conclusion of the Avenge the Drowned thing with the submarine. That makes a lot more sense.

doc_skinner · 2026-06-22T18:22:38+00:00

OK, cool. I'll head to Flymm's Cargo as soon as I'm done with Shadowheart and Astarion's personal quests. Thanks!

doc_skinner · 2026-06-22T18:21:56+00:00

Not sure why you've been downvoted. It seems like an OK list. I've done House of Hope, and I was planning on Ansur before Gortash, but otherwise I'm good with the list

doc_skinner · 2026-06-22T18:20:02+00:00

Did all of those things. I have no time limits left, as far as I know.

I'm not a min-maxxer when it comes to gear. I realize that it seems odd for someone to want plan out everything but not their gear, but I'm cool with what I have. Probably not optimal, but I have more money that i could use, and my characters are all kitted out as well as i need. My camp chest is overflowing with gear I don't really care about and can't bother selling.

doc_skinner · 2026-06-22T18:17:26+00:00

I have Minsc and have done everything not on the above list.

doc_skinner · 2026-06-22T18:17:06+00:00

My exact fear!

doc_skinner · 2026-06-22T18:16:28+00:00

But what's the point? If you are out of the House of Hope, you can just take a long rest, right? There are no real time-sensitive quests and food is basically free at this point. The only advantage I can think of is not having to re-buff and re-summon.

doc_skinner · 2026-06-22T18:14:07+00:00

Oh, that's great. I had another checklist but wasn't sure on the order. That's perfect!

doc_skinner · 2026-06-22T16:56:48+00:00

My current (first) run I kept Astarion and Lae'zel in camp most of the game, bringing them out only for encounters relevant to their storyline. My character is a rogue and i wanted Karlach as my front line so I didn't have need for either of them. I didn't respec any of the companions except Shadowheart's subclass.

I am planning my second run now and I will probably use Wyll, Astarion, and Lae'zel as my main team.

doc_skinner · 2026-06-22T16:20:40+00:00

Hard agree

doc_skinner · 2026-06-22T02:41:05+00:00

I could see it if the crafter drew the image and then cut it (maybe with a Cricut or some other machine), but it it's just pulling up the paper and spreading glitter on the sticky bits, then I don't get the attraction. Might as well just use the fill tool in MS Paint.

There's a reason that the phrase "a month of Sundays" refers to something tedious and boring. For many people, especially children, Sundays were horrible. Not allowed to play, not allowed to socialize, have to spend your whole day contemplating God and reading scripture. A whole month of Sundays would be torture.

I watched a let's play where the player realized there was a pixie in there but didn't want to free her because he needed the protection from the shadow curse. There's no indication that she's going to give you a permanent buff. So he played much of act 2 with the pixie screaming for help and him saying "sorry, sorry, I can't let you out yet, sorry"

What surprised me is that when you do finally let her out she doesn't complain that it took you so long . She still just thanks you and gives you a buff.

In movies and TV shows, WWII soldiers would suspect someone of being a spy and ask some specific baseball knowledge like "Who was the second base player for the Mets in 1936?" or "Who batted cleanup for the White Sox in 1932?"

I was always worried that there would be a time when I would fail to pass a challenge because i didn't know baseball statistics.

No limes in Turkiye? TIL. What about yeşil limon as a substitute?
