The Diplomatic Druid - Baldur's Gate 3 - Ep 39

yeah folks quilly team here and welcome welcome and Welcome to our Saturday live stream and we are once again and possibly Forever at this rate live streaming Baldur's Gate three everybody hope everyone's having a lovely weekend I'm so hyped I can't believe it's been um well three days I guess since we last streamed Baldur's Gate three I have been itching to dive in trying so hard not to be playing on my own and spoiling myself about stuff it's a really good thing actually a new uh Path of Exile League dropped yesterday because I was like really like twitching and I needed something so I played a little Path of Exile yesterday afternoon and evening just to be able to have something to do and not think about Baldur's Gate but it's hard it's hard we'll see how far we can get the today there's still so much to do in act one act one is so massive I think a lot of people are saying like act one by itself you're looking at like 50 60 hours to get through um even if you're not being completely completionist but just trying to do most things which is like really quite impressive ah yeah swamps today indeed um so we uh we don't have the little thingy anymore for the kaga meeting um it looks like so I guess maybe I'm guessing here just guessing but maybe to like challenge Koga for ownership or leadership of the emerald Grove you can either find evidence that she's a not good person and go in like Jacques or something like that I'm assuming or if you rescue Hal sin then he's going to come back and retake charge now whether or not that translates to Jacques against kaga who knows but yeah I don't have the little Tiki anymore to spy on her meaning but we're still going to stoop around it was somewhere over here um we also at some point I guess we got info about a hidden Goblin scash stash actually don't know it's not that it's not that it's not this yeah I'm not sure that we have an actual um [Music] yeah I don't think we have an actual journal entry so I'm not sure what led to knowing about this uh but um at some point we did we do still have a little Tiki here for Auntie Ethel's help which of course we'll go and check out because at this point you know howson has told us he can't cure us so we're gonna go for another plan with Auntie Ethel over here and see if that might be a thing at some point I mean I guess we'll have to check out the uh the get Yankee crash just just to see although my my sense from that point of view if none of these cure things are going to work out they're all like options to pursue and then we're gonna diverge into some sort of central location so we'll see how it goes I know uh this playthrough is basically blind yeah um I had intentionally avoiding the voided playing too much into Early Access um at this point um in my multiplayer session that we've been playing with some friends once per week we have poker nose into the underdark a little bit uh that we haven't done in this run but one of the things that that run is it's it's pretty chaotic it's mostly certain members of our party or certain member of our party starting trouble and like breaking sequences in a fun way I and I had invited that for the thing I said you know it's totally fine go crake rates okay that things are gonna go dumb and stupid and awesome because it means I'll still get to experience like the the more proper route in my regular let's play here so yeah um we we're basically all hitting stuff I have no idea what's uh what's coming for um oh in my personal game so last week we did go in this one finally pick up Carlock which is kind of delayed um unfortunately but in my personal game I did go and grab her first before going and booping with the the paladins of tier um also I intentionally didn't have will in my party for that just so I could see the change of interactions that a would happen when we would go into the place and meet the paladins of tear uh B also what would happen when I go back to camp and then sleep in that interaction ah great stuff great stuff a little disappointed that didn't have karlak in our party sooner because she's fantastic 10 out of 10. I can see why a lot of people are saying uh best character fantastic personality really like having her in the group which is really lovely um let's quickly go ahead and read some subs and resubs and then we're gonna go ahead and get playing demon X says with four human players at any given time at least one person will be off making some sort of terrible mistake over time that 25 chaos Factor really Cascades yeah absolutely absolutely um to do where's my there we go stream Labs what is that uh oh first of all bumble's red panda thank you very much for converting your Prime gaming sub to a tier one sub much appreciated for that support thank you who started us off today today was four evil not good coming in first with the resubs at 28 months Bowen Cormac is at 11 months almost a one year twitch bursary darv tormund is a 29 months Punisher coming in at a big one one zero 110 months they say 110 is the number of the number of sub months time flies I'm not sure how I like how fast

one year twitch reversary choose chat who some of you may know from our Dwarf Fortress run which is going to return at some point it's just hard to compete with Ballers 8-3 right now bacon is at 63 months and just now we have rat Lord bring us in at a full deck of cards 52 months thank you very much for that excellent who man says really want to see you play wall world says it would be cool if there's a playthrough for human players where everyone went and did different quests after Glade at the same time I mean that would not be hard to do his videos but it would be pretty funny to do uh live especially if people are getting the solo fights okay I think that brings us up to date uh our current party is Dolores it is Shadow heart who we did respect to a light cleric with better attributes we have carlak here the Barbarian who I do think we did a respect just to tweak her stats um and then a Starion here who last episode or last time we streamed uh we also respect to tweak some stats and also to rebuild as a gloomstalker ranger Rogue I think right now my plan is to go all the way up to level five Ranger I'm assuming level five gives you like the second attack per round or something like that actually be a pretty big one we could double check the level 4 Ranger will give us the ability score increase slash probably the Sharpshooter feat level five I believe is a big one for Ranger and then I think after that we go back into Rogue and pick up three levels of it so that we can unlock assassin and then between the two classes gloomstalker and assassin we're gonna have some insane opening around uh damage it's gonna be redonkulous then after that I'm not sure we might end up with like an eight and four overall to maximize Feats or we might just start putting more points in the Rangers because we'll have to check what what things get at different levels um to uh to min max with the situation might be oh [Music] what happened to the thumbnail for one is Legacy single one herself has been stolen out of history I mean technically that was never uh yeah you're right that was Wanda um I've been having trouble with YouTube like demonetizing some of my videos um it happened some of the ball there's Gate 3 stuff but it's happened to a lot to the rim World stuff and I know one of the things that can be sensitive is thumbnail content and maybe they were perceiving the rim World Pawn with a blur effect as being more naughty than I had expected so I decided to just like tweak the thumbnail and remove the the blurry Rim World Pawn um in case they were they were treated out of some sort of like titillating um a thumbnail like all right well we'll give that a try and so far that has the monetization setting situation has been better on that which is good but yeah we have a bunch of those Rim World videos are like no advertising for you so we'll see YouTube's really trying to cut down on pornography okay someone can someone ban demonic that's you know I haven't even finished my coffee yet I can't deal with this so we're gonna of course pick up every herb we run up against how can we not I mean bone cap I think is a mushroom but still okay the stash is down there but let's just oh okay that's just connecting us back to an area we've been to earlier on Snoop a boot just in this corner what's your favorite Rim roll dlsd I it's got to be ideology I really like the replayability that is made possible by audiology no survival checks look like a good place for digging nice little splashing water so much detail in this game yeah five is a big breakpoint for everyone yeah level three spells for casters level five extra attacks and other significant things from Marshalls what's that interesting oh wait hold on someone's gonna say that's weird no locating dirt bounds is usually a survival check why we're seeing perception checks because apparently there's something under this tree meant to [Music] gold silver ingots Elixir the Colossus oh increasing your size to D4 you know what we're gonna give that to Carlock um whether or not you know what I'll I'll keep the basket I'll just throw it to the um to the camp because we can do some fun like inventory organization facts with enlarge reduce that's nice now one of the things I thought Druids at level as a level two spell had access to enlarge reduce but I don't think so I was just looking at and redoing my spells before the stream started I was like oh I guess it's not in there and I don't think shadowheart has access to it as well it's just that is it just wizard spells or maybe our divine casters get it is it level three thin you say Fleet fingers running jump once per turn have to wear dashes or takes a similar action they can jump without using a bonus action okay that's actually stupid good I don't know that anyone can benefit really from this now there's always the problem that Dell doesn't really get to take advantage of his magic items too much I suppose we could just throw it on you because you've got the growling Underdog um you know what that actually doesn't do much for you but neither does something so the running jump kind of move actually I really like the idea of maybe of throwing it on karlak now there's a problem if you do click on one of these slots to see equippable items and you switch characters it's like stuck in this like selected one but it doesn't actually go so you gotta click to another slot then click back what else can we give you gloves of heroism I mean it still helps with saving throws but we don't do Channel oath I mean strike saving throws don't come up that often I think I will throw it on karlak because it might it might be useful for her to do running jumps sometimes to close with the Enemy okay that seems fine it's good for a steering unless you have something better that's a good point I think a Starion yeah starins goes in these gloves of power for the plus one to sleight of hands and then the possibility to Bane someone which seems pretty useful to me so oh I wonder if the the tree the tree was the goblin stash I just noticed it went away it was either the digable or was that all right cool all right that's done let's follow the southern edge of the swampy area and just make our way to Auntie Ethel I mean we're probably gonna see a million it's probably gonna be an hour before we get to oh there's people over here hey that's monkey info she lives over there [Music] oh wait what's all this then we're not gonna sneak up last For the Love of All This is Holy I've never clapped eyes on your poor sister drop the ACT hag you was the last to see me Arena just let her go so if she had peace again I'm a rhetorical questions here don't answer I don't know what's come over these boys Auntie Ethel's face creases with false concern you realize she's lying about seeing this girl Marina stop this we we won't ask again call her out I mean I guess so we we know the truth it doesn't mean I mean they could just be using hag as a generic insult although we've seen we read one book already that lists like three types of hags which to me is like a hint that hags are gonna exist in this game she does live out in a swamp and she is someone who's good with potions so maybe or she's just you know some some hedge witch kind of thing but I guess we'll say I mean we know you've seen the girl hopefully this doesn't you know what I'm gonna do I'm Gonna Save mid conversation you were supposed to rush to my defense love of God you are well I mean some advice and an apology at the ready okay bye bye now I was just hoping for an excellent bloody house she just disappeared I ain't seen nothing like that before she could shoot fireworks out of a backside for all I care the hug has greener will someone please tell me what's going on it's our sister Marina she's well she was in a bad way after her husband died is that same weird things like how she was gonna bring him back next thing she's gone looking for the hack with all the stupid things to do and we haven't seen her since and no good ever came from dealing with a hag none of this matter is all right we need to get her back and fast okay well I'm gonna go with option one I'm still like wondering if this is a clear cut like is Ethel an evil hag is she a sort of middling evil head which we can deal with is she just a hedge Witch is she an evil hedge witch or kindly herbalisty hedgewich I don't know but you know what these guys are just too dumb to be allowed to wander on these swamps let me let me take care of this one way or another we'll figure out what's going on Joel not a chance we're getting it back on our own oh they're definitely dead 100 they're dead okay might have its perks muck maybe I'll leave more Pockets not one for roughing it I see more conversation oh wallowing in filth is the pigs and children my dear but you repeat yourself children and people with a little bit of grit yeah this is a nice swamp loving note and we're gonna run into a donkey and an ogre chill runs up your spine cubing watched I was just trying to go read a note okay but we're durad um and we have some intellect because of our hats so I'm gonna go with that option I mean technically we might have a better no the role is about the same with investigation but I'm assuming the Druid route um it might be a lower DC we might have advantage I'm not gonna ignore the feeling that is a tough check I don't know if I want to use a second level spell slot to gain advantage because I don't expect we're really going to need advantage on intelligence checks very much right now so I think it's mostly going to be a waste of a second level spell slot and so since we're on tactician now we do tend to use the Spells more and I don't want to rest quite as often so I think we'll just do a guidance check here if it fails it fails oh let's say we're gonna you know we mostly let we've we've done a couple of um um um reloads saves comes for like well early on when we're mucking around with stealth and getting annoyed by it and things like that but mostly with these like conversations and things we're letting it go where it lies and I think one of the things this game has done really well they've made failing on these things still kind of interesting right like failing on these checks is more like well I guess we're gonna see the story in a different way um as opposed to like if I think about even like the great game like Fallout New Vegas a lot of times I felt like if I couldn't make an extra conversation check it was like well I'm just gonna miss out on some cool stuff oh I didn't get the voiceover or maybe that was an old message the chill up your spine yeah it's one stinking and Insidious assaults your senses that's why the swamp was so pretty because I'm sorry how did they do this in the game I mean there's a lighting change sure but they also like the trees the plants I don't know maybe maybe it's just a filter I'd have to really check before and after but it feels like it's swapped out a bunch of models I mean I guess with the trees it'd be as easy as like removing a bunch of um Leaf layers there's someone over there it didn't always say pure trip bog before take a breather lovelies have a bite to eat on me auntie e H so she leaving okay all right so maybe Auntie e is not the kindest with the four solution to spell this Apple's lethal nature becomes readily apparent hold on if I hadn't made the check would these or showed up as apples period very interesting a lot of perception fails going on a red cap oh easy this place is hungry for blood watch your back again that's not bad time for discretion oh because we're not grouped it's not stuffing everyone okay regroup break group save you guys stay there in a sneaky sneaky Style whoa whoa whoa still have guidance running which should give me a boost to perception checks if there's more traps open wound bleeding on the vampire because of course how many perception checks did you fail buddy I wonder does it heal you stop the bleeding lost condition open wound here okay just sneaking your guidance wore off Hang on we're gonna do a little bit more snooping a boot here retactition I would have just done a run in here but our bull rush another weaker basket it's condition hiding radio no they spotted me but no well I guess they're not set to aggro right now but it'll probably be like set to a conversation what is asterion's perception the plus four is not bad I mean theoretically the the wisdomy people here might have better but okay let's do a little bit more snooping before we commit to whatever the heck's going on here oh okay I should probably be doing this on turn base most the density of traps here is ridiculous luckily we can basically only fail by Rolling a one that may be literally true yeah you're bleeding again oh dear someone's left a trap house and a perception field I mean I guess as long as I stay out of the water it looks like there's no traps in the dry ground yes so maybe that'll be the thing because it looks like the water here is just filled with crap whatever colors I'm ready thank you all right let's group up save yeah what if we run out of disarming tools yeah that's a good point well okay they're not hostile you know what just walk in there's no so okay red caps are very evil Fae I suppose yeah so we're gonna get spotted around suppose knowing that we could plan a preemptive attack wow all these I think the red caps don't care hello glare of a red cap a fake creature known for its bloodlust greets you um noise is the creature pretending to be right you will just unsealy well they're pretty evil aren't they like act aren't the red caps actively sadistic and like dip their caps in the blood of like victims you're putting me a sheep I'll buy him back everyone approved okay is there something wrong with them are they on okay why are they they don't show up on an ALT but I can click if I had a hand successful I guess they're Barb so I guess there's a chance of injuring myself while trying to pick twisting Vines I think can enroute you oh there's a fast travel so the brothers oh I guess they didn't find their sister waiting for these guys to just trigger on me so if I hadn't dispelled the Illusion by seeing through it would I literally be seeing sheep here it's a
