      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.

        pick locks

          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.

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

                            I woke up feeling so good, I think I’d better call in sick/ I need a personal trainer to help me hold my drink
                            I plan to be spontaneous next time we meet/I’m putting off procrastinating until next week
                            I’ll get onto it when I give a shit

                              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…

                                            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.
