Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 - tips, tricks & helpful information

[Russia is over. The end.]

Got a question about chapter 3.

I'm sided with Gar-something. Gotta kill Orion.

Once I got into the lower city, I simply walked into Elfsong tavern and then followed down, as per Emperor's request. I kept going down and found two exits: one leads to some bhaal cultists, another to some "guild" (thieves guild?)

I know chapter 3 can unravel very easily and doesn't want you to do things in an incorrect order. Should I forget I was ever there and follow the Cundalhallow Tombstones quest or are those two separate things?

Because when I'm in the guild, the game thinks I'm supposed to be there, but I as a player have no idea what the fuck is going on.

i believe, that if you go after orion 1st, you wont be able to impress murder tribunal. Don't think there are other issues?

Is displacer beast so OP that you shouldn't use it, or it doesn't count that you've beaten the game? Feels like the mimic tear in Elden Ring.

Is murder tribunal the alternative way to Orin or a separate quest?

its... optional content on the way?

dont stress about a3. Its packed with content and quite tiring. if you are trying to check all the boxes you are likely already too late. just... go through it. Or take a break half way through.

normally im not the one to call for quest timers, but perhaps they should have been added to a3 so that half of the quests simply disappear. It could have been a problem with implementation since stuff seem to progress based on long rests and I did whole a3 without them. Or perhaps I did one? Then spent 2h spamming long rests to get all the cut scenes out of the way

I don't think you can enter there without proceeding with the quest before?

I have a complete mod setup listed on my page. 99% sure it works perfectly. I think there is room left to optimise for a more interesting challenge to BG3's faceroll difficulty, but this setup goes a long way.

I've also designed a party specifically for this mod setup, playing on Honour mode. It involves using no classes that have spell slots. I think it will make for an extremely challenging run.

Nice! Does honour mode still have the retarded save restriction?

Yes. You can use Honour Mode Unlocker or whatever it's called, on the Nexus if you want more freedom with that

Man I just read your modding guide, you really go above and beyond huh. I might postpone my second playthrough until after the mod tools have been out for a while, though that Absolute Wrath mod looks absolutely tasty.

Anyone have an idea on why Voss doesn't show up in my camp when he's supposed to? Already did the creche segment and currently in Act III, but I didn't get the forced long rest with Voss as people allegedly would get after dealing with the creche.

Yes it's fantastic. Highly recommend it, at the moment I've only messed with the first few hours of gameplay but it was brutal. Not having spells really makes the game challenging.
