Astarion with the Glove of Thievery, Happy and Silver Pendant (Guidance Cantrip) feels so mean against traps and locks.
+9-12 on a roll with Advantage. Those poor chests stand no chance against Vampdaddy.
There are a few traps I’ve run into with a difficulty of 30, but otherwise… yes.

Omg literally the first ones that could be a challenge
Getting the Monk engine to work has been satisfying.
-
@Duke-Whisky There some traps that are also difficulty 30.
First time a challenge rating made me sweat.

@Testament - Yeah those sounds like the first ones that might be challenging, else Asterion does make exploring a little easy mode when given some specialist gear.

Convinced my bioDad to buy the game and this man goes to bed at 9:30 pm only calls me on the weekends and he calls me
on this past Monday
at 9:38 pm
leaves a voicemail saying ‘I have questions about Baldur’s Gate’.
So I call him the next morning:
“I CAN’T JUSTIFY KILLING PALADINS FOR A CHATTY TALL ONE-HORNED DEMON CHICK THAT’S ON FIRE.”
Well that’s fine, Dad, more for me. And also you’re missing out.
He’s having a hard time with figuring out what the ‘right’ answers are for his character and I told him he has to let go of that. It’s not supposed to be obvious, buddy.
He’s enjoying himself. It’s a deep, story-driven, complicated game and I love how wildly varying so many of the playthrough stories appear to be.

Shadowheart and I shared a similar reaction to Karlach
-
@somasatori I DID NOT HAVE HER IN MY PARTY AT THE TIME RRRGHHHH. Astarion talking about how she can break him in half made me laugh so hard.
-
Look, there is a reason I call her Mommy Karlach even though it’s not like that.
(ETA: On this playthrough. >.>)

It may be helpful to remind him that Paladins in 5e aren’t good, they’re idealogues.

@Pavel He hasn’t met Minathara yet, clearly.

In my encounters with her, Min seems to have this problem with chasms. It’s absolutely tragic.

As far as I’m concerned, Minthara’s purpose in life is being robbed of her armor.

@Aria - Her casualwear is also very fine on Shadowheart.

Apparently there’s a mod to give Gale magic exploding underpants, and I find this way funnier than I should.

Also F10 = hides the UI and getting screenshots during close-up scenes is so good.

@Duke-Whisky first of all, you look great in that hat.
second of all, I just learned right now that cats keying f10 is what turned off the UI when I was mid fights and i restarted the game to get the UI back multiple times for no reason.
let it be a challenge to you

Interestingly enough, Shadowheart’s underwear are recognised as grenades in certain parts of the code…

Quick Hans is a TOTALLY NORMAL HUMAN doing normal human things, thank you.

I just defeated an optional boss with its own theme song, and holy hell. That was a hard fight. And also the song is fantastic.
You know you’re in for a bad time when after the first round of combat, you’re so flabbergasted by the damage output that you stare intently at your scrolls for like 10 minutes.

Screenshot button! The closest we’ll get to a photo mode.
