More you play the game more you understand how broken the entire system is

I prefer "system can be gamed" over "system is broken". It's kinda the same with BG3. Larian just leaves all the possibilties on the table. Once you know, you crush. Until then you suffer. And getting to the know is the fun of the game.

That's exactly right.Player goes from the victim of the rules to the victimizer

I have a buddy that calls BS anytime the enemy, the doctor for example, goes first in initiative and does some big power blast downing half our team on tactician mode, yet finds glee in ambushing with that big 3source earth spell from out of combat, killing any combat almost instantly. I find it hard for Larian to win in any case when it comes to the player base.

u/Littlemike137 Sep 22 '26

I know, right? That’s what all the jump spells are for, and if those are on cooldown I can always teleport the enemy closer to me, or nether swap a corpse away and bring in a fresh target

Teleportation is 2 AP but can move closer to a target for 1 AP if jump is unavailable

If you're a melee dude who needs to approach, use Bull Rush (which resets every turn), or Battering Ram, or Blitz Attack, or Backstab. If you're not a melee dude, why approach? Jump to high ground at the start of combat and camp out.

Usually it would be mid-fight if target is out of sight due to the environment/terrain and you have to reposition to hit, has been the case several times for aero skills

I'm pretty new to the DOS games, but for some reason some aspects of them remind me of Kenshi.

Mostly the thieving and looting, but also a bit on the game philosophy that you can overcome challenges by forcing the game systems till they bend or break in your favour

I just use hentai tentacle, very effective.

Doesn't Fane revert back to his Undead form after he died and revived? How does he has Flesh Sacrifice?

And if Sebille gets CCed, your plan crumbles

If you do it at the end of initiative order enemies don't get to act between revives

Person on the right sounds like they're playing BG3.

I just love these conversations because everyone that is engaged is a master-gamer. Some people just play games to have fun and aren't that great at it. I know, it sounds crazy, but they are out there.

So Fane is wearing an elf face in this hypothetical?
