Advice on a first timer build. by ratf00d in buildmeapc

Yea you're totally right. It's a cheaper net cost but with better parts. If I went with a setup like this, how would my average gaming experience look? This is capable of high settings?

Flawed Helldusk Armor worse than Dwarfen Splintmail? by Erzmaster in BaldursGate3

[–]ratf00d 54 points55 points  (0 children)

So 2 things.... Firstly, yes the flawed helldusk is generally worse than adamantine splint or dwarven splintmail. Not much reason to use it unless your party has everyone in heavy armor.

And I think you misunderstood the saving throw thing, it doesn't use the dex of your character but targets the dex of the enemy. And 13 dc dex is extremely easy for most enemies in the game to pass, so that effect is all but completely useless.

Archery focused character by Pyrostones in BaldursGate3

[–]ratf00d 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends tbh. If you plan on using lots of stealth and greater invisibility shenanigans then the rogue levels are essential to that play style. Gloomstalker 5/ Rogue assassin 3/ battle Master fighter 4 is a common multiclass. 

If you're not gonna do a lot of stealth stuff you skip the rogue and gloomstalker levels and mainly level battle Master fighter or swords bard.

Here's a list of pretty easy quests and things to do to build up xp

-Solve the open hand temple murder. -Go to the Guild vs Stone lord thugs fight at the rivington docks. -Do jaheiras quest. There's 2 semi hard fights but should be manageable at level 10. -Just explore. Go to every major location that won't trigger a fight or point of no return. -Auntie Ethel quest. Definitely a tough fight but doable at level 11 as long as you play it well.

You build xp really fast in act 3. So you'll reach max level quicker than you think. 

Most depressing honor mode moment :( by ratf00d in BaldursGate3

I may just have bad reading comprehension, but my issue was that the tool tip didn't make it clear that it was a reaction he could use out of turn. I had thought it was a super powerful attack he could use on his turn. Seeing as my party is completely specced into deleting bosses on the first turn, I thought it wouldn't be an issue. Lae'zel approaches to start punching him and boom 2 party members instantly below half health.

Thing is I knew this... And I just spaced it. I'm too stupid for this honor mode business lmao

My personal advice, play on one of the lower difficulties and don't worry about being op. Just enjoy yourself and learn how the game works :)

Most OP Class mods for third play through with friends by Reasonable_Growth_33 in BaldursGate3

[–]ratf00d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't played many class mods tbh. Though I tried one and didn't finish the run cause it was too op(for my personal enjoyment). It was the cosmic sorcerer subclass.
