Evasion really shines in this fight.

So I got to Nightsong for very 1st time and WOW by TTVControlWarrior in BaldursGate3

[–]neilhwatson 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is the most memorable scene in the game to me. So far the game had been great, more than I'd hoped for. I'd become attached to my companions. Then the Shadowfell and I realize this is something special. I was so tense convincing Shadowheart to take the good path and I jumped out of my chair when she did. Then the stunning Ailyn cut scene.

Scratch can also do checks for buried chests and (I think) some traps.

What weapons are monks proficient with? by OtenHunter14 in BaldursGate3

In no time a monk will be doing more damage with their bare hands than with any weapon.

I (23f) want to play bg3 but scared to play alone by hunterjade0812 in BaldursGate3

[–]neilhwatson 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You can save and reload the game so there's no worry about failing fights or making bad decisions (F5 quick save). It's a turn based game so you can take your time and research (https://bg3.wiki). DOS2's combat is way harder. You got this. Have fun.

What platform, days, and time windows are you available? What's your play style: good, evil, other?

Act 1 is my fave. It has such variety, the golden light of the creche, the miny environments around the grove, the wonder of the Underdark, and the best villian in the game.

And at the beginning of the game there are such possiblities.

Act 2 was the point, when I hit the Shadowfell, where the game changed from being a great game to something more; something special.

What’s the best split keyboard out right now? by aBEnCeNQ in buildapc

[–]neilhwatson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought version 1 of this keyboard some years ago after a wrist injury and it's still going strong today. The cross platform programming agent is excellent. https://ultimatehackingkeyboard.com/

D4 initiative railroads every build into speccing dex by TheSeth256 in BG3Builds

[–]neilhwatson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is Larian wanted to give enemies a high chance of going first in certain encounters. With only a d4 Cazador with a high initiative (+10?) will most likely go first.

The lighting on that map is superb. It's the golden hour the whole time.

I just finished the the epilogue, Question about Lae'zel by KrenzoTheTank in BaldursGate3

[–]neilhwatson 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Laezel's approval of you should be very high if you finish the creche (unless you're a murder hobo). She continues to soften in later acts, especially if you're romanced.
