drahkon Posted February 16 Author Posted February 16 Basically only played this during February, albeit "only" for 15 hours Managed to deal with a lot of Act 1 a lot faster than during my first, abandoned playthrough. Just reached Grymforge and if I remember correctly, there will be a very difficult boss fight soon. Got a few more things to take care of outside, though. The Goblin Camp still awaits and I should destroy handle it diplomatically and then destroy it before moving on within Grymforge. My ranger is in good companion with Karlach the Barbarian Thrower, Gale the Sorcerer and Shadowheart the Cleric. As always, the early game is pretty tough on Tactician but once you reach level 4 it gets much easier. At level 5, most normal fights in Act 1 have been a cakewalk. 1
drahkon Posted 2 hours ago Author Posted 2 hours ago Finished Act 1 after 30h, which is 10h less than the first time I finished it (that playthrough does not exist anymore, as mentioned before). Not surprising as I still knew most of what to do, so the exploration part has been cut short Been making my way through the second Act and it's been a lot of fun. The "gimmick" was pretty annoying at first but it became a non-issue very quickly. It's ridiculous how easy the fights have become, though. Playing on Tactician and the early game was pretty difficult (not as much as during my first playthrough, because I didn't know much about the mechanics back then) but since reaching level 4-5 with my group, it's been a cakewalk. Occasionally one of my party members "dies" (reaches 0 HP and gets the condition "downed" - read it up, if you want to know what the hell that's about ) because some enemies get like 3 actions in one turn but it's never been a big deal. Haven't progressed the main quest(s) a lot in Act 2. As usual with BG3, the side-quests take the main stage for a while 1
