The Diplomatic Druid - Baldur's Gate 3 - Ep 4

yeah folks quilly Keen here and welcome welcome to our Monday live stream and we are not playing Rim world today because I can't imagine myself doing anything other than live streaming Baldur's Gate I had a lovely weekend away uh this weekend I went to my parents house uh for um for the long weekend here uh for Haider and Manitoulin Island which is a wonderful Festival they do every year um it's so lovely despite the fact that I didn't have to do much because my effed up toe I didn't get to walk around much or see much um not even supposed to drink which is a whole it's okay I brought some non-alcoholic beer so I was I was fine that was actually really nice very relaxing weekend but the entire time all I kept thinking about is when do I get back to play some more Baldur's Gates so here we are with my kind of frou-free hair let's do it baby uh yeah I did have relaxing weekends those all right really tried to stay off of it as much as possible which was a challenge because there's lots of things I want to do but uh toes doing good I've got another nurse appointment after the stream so we'll uh we'll poke at it and see what the situation is over there three days away from gg3 is like a drug addict having trouble getting his next fix absolutely I was able to watch a couple of uh well the start of a couple of Let's Plays uh on on YouTube of other people going through you know just that initial starting area yeah you know just to just to get just to get a little fix just to get a little bit of a fix um but uh yeah very eager to jump back in over here too should also finish Divinity original sin too that's a great game that's I I really like it now here's the thing next to Boulder's Gate at this point it's crap holder's gate is so good but the thing is I like divinity original sin too um the story is not you know it's nowhere sort of near as strong although it does open up a lot after Act One um had a couple of attempts at Divinity original sin 2 for myself that kind of petered off because it was still in act one once you get to act two and things it does feel like it opens up a little bit more which is really nice um and I think the combat mechanics are quite cool they're certainly very different it's Unique like despite being basically the same engine ball is gate three and Divinity Originals play radically different in terms of like all combat mechanics and how their classes working absolutely everything like that um but yeah if you enjoy bg3 and you want to scratch that itch a little bit Divinity original sin 2 is an excellent choice and probably comes in pretty deep sales quite often so there you go uh let's quickly read some subs and resubs and then let's go ahead and get started we've got uh we've got two brand new Subs just now we've got Raton box or wrapped on box uh with their twitch Prime and a riot iraesus uriasis Urias this is why can't I say your name iriastes it's probably more like that uh thank you very much for uh

asses I I don't know why I had such an issue I don't know I don't know so we are currently still very early in the game we have gone to what's like the Druid Grove called can I can you from here can you go to the world map I right click no these are just the waypoints yeah but yeah I guess the emerald Grove hmm can you go to the world map from here I'm not sure that you can um you just finished watching part three had to double speed it yeah it was a long video um so yeah we've we've done most of emerald Grove um I think there might be a couple of little small minor things in there but we've done most of it um as far as we can as far as I know without leaving um with the side of like not actually starting a civil war between the tieflings and The Druids um we are very much in we still got to track down a house and bring them back and hopefully that'll sort out all the chaos um with uh kaga and whatnot but uh we did just go and find our way into this tiefling hat it's called tiefling Heights I always thought about it's like it's like the kids hideout in town here but maybe it is just generically tiefling Hideout or very least it's just the tiefling kids I'm wondering though if we should back out and rest we are we are out of spell slots on basically all of our characters I think I'm gonna keep going for now I don't think this very combat area and we don't have Eagles wisdom which is the or Eagle Splendor which is the one downside we do have owls wisdom but um our persuasion check should still be relatively okay so I think it's gonna be all right hey average jobs thanks for gifting giftsub and the 24th doctor subscribing cheers what level are you guys currently I believe we're level three yeah level three mm-hmm oh Oh I thought this was a ring I'm like hey I should put those on right this is the the we're gonna use this to kill ourselves within talks and although we could also just use it to um enchant our uh our gear we do actually have oh right the Ring of color spray so um this dagger here I think we can go ahead and just add to Wares um we do have the cap of curing oh yeah this is something that bards wear so we currently don't have a Bard but this might be a good thing for Gail to eat um he's there since unfortunately the one cool Bard we found the only cool bar we found in any game ever in this game here apparently can't be a companion is there an npcard companion I don't actually know if I want you to answer that question um I'm sort of kind of just talking out loud but this would be an excellent hat for them to wear because that is stupendously good however if there's not that actually becomes a really good candidate for Gail to eat um but first I think what we're gonna do is it's going to be career's locket over here with the dancing lights so um I guess we tried to like maybe offer him some magic at some point and he said something like oh no not yet I'm just wondering if we should hold on to it or we should put it in his inventory if it matters um I figure I'll just send it to Gail because we don't need the ability to make um uh to make Dancing Lights really in our party well Gail could sort of use it because he's the only one who doesn't have dark vision but I don't think it's a big deal um I might just go ahead and wear this ring of color spray give me an extra combat option hey wait a minute my toolbar got reset none of this is supposed to be here I'm gonna provide melee weapon I don't want you in there either you guys are supposed to be over here I mean color spray I just put down so that kind of makes sense hey why did my common toolbar get reset should have a dedicated pouch named food Regale and fill in according that's not a terrible idea gamer Taurus yeah maybe we could turn off the auto add to the toolbar that's a good point although I kind of like um for these Powers I guess what's gonna happen is whenever I equip myself with a different weapon it's going to reset those I could just turn that off for some things um I was also wondering about maybe increasing the difficulty arrows consumable we'll see I think that's fine oh they actually don't have an option for like the weapon abilities okay let's not worry about it I had toolbars unlocked right now I could lock it again but Swift as my feet can carry me here a little bit of festive bunting ending bunting something like that hey yo kiddo it's mole so this mole must be the leader of all the kids because they keep referencing this person over and over again well look who's come to visit my kids say you've been busy since you got here I heard you helped Mellie with that locket I owe you for that Mercon says you've got him out of a tight spot with some harpies gotta say I'm impressed champion of children right here you saved Arabella from The Druids don't know what those bosses would have done and thanks for going easy on selfie not many marks would have done the same okay how many good things did I do for this kid jeez happy to help are you running all these schemes and swindle's risky you know uh you better keep these kids in check they won't get off so lightly forever I mean I'm kind of happy to help but also like you know this is this is dangerous you guys have clearly gotten yourself into a bunch of trouble already at this point so maybe at some point you should consider knocking it off I'm just saying we're saving up for a better Hideout when we get to Baldur's Gate why you planning on telling me stealing is wrong I mean I don't click on chests that are highlighted in red but otherwise uh taking advantage during bad times those there are words for folk like that oh that's not a bad point but quite the opposite I want to invest in the US Thieves Guild in the sword Coast 20 bucks 20 gold is nothing to us and would help the kids out a lot and maybe we'll prevent them from going out and stealing as much crap from everyone else so I'm very tempted to do that option three I'm not your father do as you please um how do people feel about two you know I think I'm pretty okay with it we could do a quick poll just to make sure that they're working today that'll be interesting to see but I'm probably gonna pick two I just want to get a test in see how laggy it was because um when we're playing on uh Thursday it was super responsive and then Friday it was quite lagging it seems to be quite laggy today to bring up the pop-up so well now we know might not be a great day for us to do the twitch integrated voting yeah demonic the exact same thing happened to me when I started the stream today it brought it instantly popped up a dialog box vote one to three kind of thing so I don't know like maybe there's something weirdly stuck in the queue from before in some bizarre way oh there you go vote for dialogue option just came up for me it does seem to be coming in all right so I mean we know it's kind of borked but it does come up eventually all right so yeah we're gonna go with two we're gonna invest our 20 buckaroos one time down free money I've got operating costs you wouldn't I mean maybe we just got Swindle some more by a good story but 50 sometime huh I'll repay this and then some see you around maybe I know I I feel like I heard that you actually do get to Baldur's Gate in Boulder's Gate three which one would sort of hope so and certainly we've gotten a lot of um indication that a bunch of these tieflings um are want to leave this Grove and go to Baldur's game they're just worried that they can't right now because it would be unsafe um so I'm thinking this does actually come in and do something for us later on which is nice we've got some more people we can talk to there's Mali again I don't know if I've talked to Zach you don't look so tough mouthful of a hobgoblin all by herself um yeah you have no idea Emily you're blocking my light oh I remember you you're the one who helped me get away you want something well you just here to stare at my forehead I mean you are the cutest tiefling child I've ever seen um stare at his forehead but yeah this is the one who stole the pennant and really should give it back at this point you know tell the truth The Avengers locket do you have it look if I had it would I tell you I mean this entire conversation is it literally this time now find yourself amazed and get lost I'm busy Moses you're all right all right that's it okay we gotta read this book I don't think we've read this fables ethereum three the enticing Elder there were once two sisters once a great fighter and won a great Claire who longed for a new adventure I shall skewer an elder brain upon my sword cried the fighter to the underdark I wish to know the secrets of the brain's Powers said the cleric let us be off in the recesses of the deep the sisters flew darklings and Darrow bug bears and bullets the two reached an illicited colony where the fourth ten day passed their Quest would soon be complete with great effort they fell the half dozen mind flares and soon reached the Elder brain's Lair it Rose from the brine pool at the center of its chamber flanked by illithids the brain didn't speak aloud but the sisters could hear it in their minds I am called koalas why have you come I will make your powers my own called the cleric I will crush you and bring an end to your tyranny said the fighter the brain hovered in silence a moment later a burst of Sonic energy shook the chamber and the sisters lay dead huaz replied the elephants feasted Earthly that day [Music] what the hell is with this story I mean I guess it's like those like the ancient fairy tales that always have like a moral at the end it's like dude don't go messing with mind flares like are you crazy all right it needs a little bit of work the gates will never see us coming that's mole again and we can re-steel from the kids oh there's merkin don't [ __ ] around and find out any lessons aren't you the clever one that's very kind it's about you I hope you like it I hope I like it too all right we've received merkin's story um I'm sorry I sorted by latest oh there it is wrong way around okay once there was a boy on a beach on a beach tree he saw there a harpy Nest he was a very good climber he wanted to climb to the top and steal from the harpy Nest but the harpy was very mean she sang a song and the boy forgot what he was doing but then an adventurer passed by the adventurer was very strong and killed the harpy in one blow and saved the boy the boy was very cold and scared he was standing in the water so he was very cold but the adventure had saved him the boy taught thought the adventurer was amazing the boy wanted to be like the adventurer he wanted to be strong and safe people and never be scared again just like the adventure at the end much better story than the last one I mean come on Miles Ahead it helps it had a very uh sympathetic main character lots of pouches we could grab but we're not gonna do that oh The Guild the hidden rulers of Baldur's Gate the book Central argument is encapsulated in chapter devoted to real surrail king Guild Kingpin of little kalashan in another time another place real surreal would be celebrated as a revolutionary in Baldur's Gate in her own lifetime she's known as a crime Lord Kingpin of the guild ruling over the city within a city that is the District of little kalasham uh rise less story began when she was orphaned at a young age her father was hanged by The Flaming fist for Sheltering her his fugitive brother soon after her mother was denounced by the jealous wife of a patriarch and imprisoned in the sea Tower where she perished alone in the world she had learned two valuable lessons when the law is corrupt it is it is a necessity for those without the support of its enforcers to act outside of it and when the law is brutal it is an ethical duty to act against it operating from within the calendula Emporium rilson knows the value of everything and everyone that moves throughout Baldur's Gate she controls a wide network of agents who observe and track the exchange of goods and information as slowly closely as any Merchant or politician but secondhand knowledge is cheap rielson's real trick is to draw draw those with secrets to share directly into her orbit at her garden of Whispers information can be shared with the guild anonymously and one with a grudge to bear or competitor to bring low that is to say anyone in importance can ensure that the whole city knows their grievance it is said if someone speaks of your weak spot in the garden at dawn you can expect to find a knife burden that exact spot before night falls I'm sure this one's gonna be relevant oh yeah could I talk to the kid again about the story since I've read it now the good question hey merkin Mercon mercone I'm gonna be like you someday killing all the scary monsters killing thing that's where it's at no everyone I'm high I've got anything else to do in here we came in over here this was the other path that we couldn't take which I thought in Early Access you could do if you were small like in a cat form but here's just like just perma-blocked which was weird and annoying wasn't there a crying girl was there okay we talked to him there's Melly murkin Mercon more who this is that someone we didn't talk to no Zaki we talked to oh Sophie we missed Sophie oh hello again um mole's in charge here not me okay anyway so we're gonna go out we're gonna go this way and see if we can access this hole from here if it's unblocked what the deal is I mean there might be some jumpy stuff we could do up here but when do I get to run the ring scams I mean maybe there's something hidden up there but nope can't use this right now what a weird message yeah you normally go through that hole still strange you won't let you just need to be short yeah and I tried in cat form didn't work and like normally in the Early Access anyway the message it gave was like oh you're too big to fit through it like gave you contextual things but here's not giving us anything like that and big or small just says you can't use this right now so I think it's been flagged that it was like in use or mid animation in my save and it's just broken but that's okay because we could have come down here earlier but here goes nothing hold on there was a little jump spot across there I kind of wanna oh there's a chest the jump uh we'll be able to because I can hand sleep myself since it's a ritual spell all right not much but it's something no I'm not still in the other version I'm I should be on the commercial version the retail version I don't know you guys I mean we've got the version number over here that can never go away wow you can hide the Avi with F10 you guys can confirm if I'm in the same number or not but as far as I know I should be on the release version although we launched this in the Press pre-release version so who knows maybe there's something left okay so I do still kind of wish that when you clicked on the big map no helping it works but you could see where you were you know or click on the map to like Zoom to that area so you can click in the right place I am not yeah I've got to speak for dead ready because we got it from The Amulet of course you're an idiot oh yeah F10 F10 hides DUI and there is a mod that you can get that hides the version number as well who else is in here who are you well let's talk to zevolor first I heard what happened thank you for protecting the child if The Druids are this far gone then it's not just goblins we have to fear so we can risk violence here or face it for certain on the road quite the choice isn't it here's the thing I would love it if The Druids and the tieflings just got along and The Druids use their powers and the tiefling use their you know there's their extra muscle they you know more people around to act as soldiers to mutually work together to defend the Grove um but part of it is also well I mean if this was The Druids Grove in the first place then they have a certain right to to stay there and to call their home and potentially choose who comes and live with them maybe I mean forcibly ejecting people in a way that'll get them killed don't agree with that um but so here I mean part of me is like well I'd like to delay the ritual until we can get house in here and maybe work something out the other option though is hey maybe I can just help these teeth links safely get out of here and get to Baldur's Gate um you know and then The Druids can do whatever the heck they want with their Grove do you see these are like both kind of Vibes that I'm going with I I don't want to go with four obviously best of luck with that nothing to do with me no no no you have to resist no that's not what I'm that's not what I'm advocating here because I'm worried that it's just gonna lead to violence and it probably will um I I kind of feel like I'm gonna ask can you delay the rich that's probably not something they can do right it's The Druids can The Druids delay the ritual but I'm thinking that the long-term thing is leave the Grove let's go to Baldur's Gate together I did find the evidence there's influence from the shadow Druids um and obviously that's that's garbage and that's why I'm thinking we need to find halsin who'll hopefully put a stop to this whole ritual in the first place but I mean can you think of anything that might slow it down while I go and get the old head Druid here you saw what they were willing to do to a child just for trying he's got a great Point influence I wrote her twisting things I believe The Druids might see yeah they're not really soldiers but it's like a question of having some extra bodies um why don't you just get rid of it no I don't want to encourage violence I'm gonna go with option two you need to cut your losses and run I'll help it's good of you to offer but there's a whole Army I'll go kill an army of goblins and then you can leave an army of our own to escort us safely to Baldur's Gate and while I don't doubt your abilities you're no Army no I have two armies there may be a way though goblins I want the meetings swamp talks yeah it's unlike them to organize so cleverly somebody must be leading them bringing discipline to their ranks take out that leadership and they'll scatter it's no small thing to ask but I've seen yeah we have bear arms we have a right to bear arms rawr can you pay me some of my problem I mean I don't think I'd necessarily like I wouldn't necessarily agree offhand to just like go and assassinate a um you know the horde leader although in practice it might be a thing but you know I'd certainly be fine with offering I'll see what I can do about the situation I'm assuming because these are goblins violence is gonna happen it's not like Dolores you're a pacifist or anything like that um but maybe there's a small chance that we could like convince them to go somewhere else but probably we're just gonna have to go and Boop them on the heads so we'll do that we're not gonna ask for money we're not gonna say it's not my problem everyone in this Camp depends on it staring disapproves thank you we'll be ready to leave as soon as you give word yeah no pacifist this time only pass a claw but if there's a clear path past those goblins they'll find it yes who are you he'll you're the one who helped to the gate glad to have another sword we might need it no character development for you yet Roger isn't there a tiefling that Lizzie I want to talk to you um I'm not sure let's pop outside we're gonna check the journal the other thing is there is a house right next to us oh no not here there is a a house with like a closed door that we haven't actually visited either I don't know where it is there's the prison there with the goblin that we didn't kill oh I think it was over here I want to take another little look-see oh bad break so well I'll have to address the ad thing afterwards um still trying to figure out the right way to uh to balance these stupid ads on stupid twitch [ __ ] people weren't happy when they were every 10 minutes now instead they're doing they're going to do a triple every half hour instead that each can get its sort of quasi-soft requirement of three minutes per hour can you talk to Calgon maybe since we did find the maybe we can do a jacuzz I don't know I mean there's not actually a keepout sign on this it's not like I could read anyway board I want to open the door because I know there's stuff that goes on in there because I watched another let's play that saw that it's like the only spoiler I got there you know there's something going on I was hoping that exploring the town would like lead us to a not breaking and entering way to get in here we'll see maybe a starion's gonna get curious and he'll go off and do it on his own and then report in what he found I kind of like that idea okay so I want to take a quick look at our Journal here um so to find a cure which is you know sort of our main quest top priority right now uh to not die um right now get heplanetti completed completed it is you know she was gonna try to poison us and she didn't so that's about it uh we might be able to act ask a goblin Priestess for help we might be able to get the help from rescuing the Druid helson and we might be able to do it by getting the githyanki crash personally for many different reasons I'm very interested in attempting to rescue Allison right he's a fellow Druid um he's also the person who should be in charge of the Grove here and by all accounts is a very good and reasonable person and probably will help get things straight which is really nice so this is something I'm very interested in pursuing but we're also very interested in Saving the refugees which I don't know if this is the case from a story point of view it does feel like this is somewhat time sensitive because this ritual is going to happen but I suspect it's not actually time based here mostly because those mechanics are really annoying investigate the swamp we found a note address to kaga yes and we're going to investigate the swamp and then to save the refugees we also have to go and defeat the Goblins so we have two reasons to go to Goblin Camp right clear them out so that the refugees can safely wander this area and also theoretically Houston is there um find the Night song [Music] some kind of Temple in the goblin tank okay and then we have some various companion stuff that we're gonna come back to you someone said something about talk to the rat does we see a rat right here so we talked to three rats inside the um The Druids place and kill me too you can't get it if we from holding a button here you've seen maybe there's an ogre and a donkey in the swamp and I'm a swamp I'm hoping to talk to animals I literally have to speak with animals trade how long until Roland shows off his but I don't see it anyway um so with that in mind currently in terms of quest markers where's this leading to what's what is this is that through the concealed hatch no where's this leading to you're gonna be soaring every last one and step why do we have to talk to Zorro for something find the crash find zuru if the Yankee Warrior talked to zoru okay well tell you what maybe we should get Lazelle in on this goblins will come so I was talking about camping because we uh we're out of spells and everything let's go to Camp we'll do some rest and we'll pop in Lazelle to a very least interact with zoru here I bet you we can do it on our own but it feels like well she wanted to talk to him so let's go ahead and do that all right so let's go to camp once so far it was inside the temple so we actually haven't had the opportunity to see these actual camps is nice to see always room for move now we'll talk to people I think after we start the rest and we get into our camp close um we'll see um [Music] we'll see little exclamation marks where people have interesting conversation to do so here's our personal chest we've sent a few things over here uh we do have the uh this is the one that you get from the twitch drops I always had these in for whatever reason um the horrible purple clothes which would be great on a Bard we don't have that you have a bewildering Adventures pack cooler clothing chest and the mask of the shapeshifter which is a an item that's sort of a callback to Divinity original sin too does give us the uh the change person option what do you have here Cape of the red Prince loot to the Meriwether Bard by corner of the Sea Beast needle of the outlaw Rogue so these are all things that are even more references to um Divinity original sin too oh yeah oh that's sick I actually don't know if it's the right fit for um for Dell here the bicorn of the Sea Beast would probably look cool too but this is an actual like helmet with stats we already gave you a cool hat I suppose we can give you a different cool hat let's see what we feel about that damn that's pretty good so uh this dagger here plus two no no it's because of my stats I feel like this is just a regular dagger lost in thought yeah the stats are exactly the same it does have a different look which is very cool looking I like that it does seem like just a cosmetic dagger I agree bewildering Adventures pack has got oh Fritz oh Belgium oh haggis who it's in is this like something from like do they have like team members from all over the place some dappled paella Stout stew potion of animal speaking potion of flying potion of mind reading potion of featherfall and an elixir of heel giant strength strength 21. well that's pretty good hey how come did you get out to my camp supplies pack we still have the Pack and we still have this chest um can I just drop things into it oh no we put it on top I guess I could just right click and send two that would be a thing let's tell you what we'll keep this but it can say uh send to Camp which will sure would have been here yet same thing with you we might want the extra bags around later on so we'll do that but we'll keep it the food because it'll be useful for camp supplies mmm puts in potion of flying that's quite good this thing might just get eaten by Gail later we'll see inventory weight is fine right now so I'm not going to stress too much about what we've got waste a step oh Winters is here we meet again as predicted I shall be here in my camp for whenever thou Hast need of my services let's be rude but what are you there are many answers to that question none well Santa where's his uh rash items there's when you're trading with a merchant there's a convenient button to like uh sell all Wares basically I mean it's constants aren't supposed to be able to talk he's cleaning out a skeleton quill come on or Dolores you know what it's fine I didn't actually want to leave but not this one lol this one and this one a less worthy still what are you doing writing the balance Beyond mortal Realms there doth exist an amalgamation of space monkey and snared by the treacherous Cult of the absolute failed in its name they bear great discontentment with their destiny for a mere pittance of coin I might summon the worthiest among them to lend them oh very well not good thank you very much for the uh the gift Subs as well oh everyone's feeling good today yes so um one of the things I know with Withers is he lets you respect apparently lets you resurrect people too that's good to know um and also um he does let you recruit hirelings if for some reason you don't want to use the NPC companions right if you want to customize party of stats or maybe you've just had a lot of the NPC companions get killed for some reason uh you can still Pat out your part with those well these highlings be joining me willingly most willingly for Sue their passions doth Run Deep for what have been raw all right let's see if she saw something different again this time phage spins along yes sir if you want a party of all gnomes dark urge tends need new companions yep uh the the dark herds meaning Gail was quite interesting I don't want to say anything uh but wow yeah um it's perish I will cleave soul to body once more yeah it's incredibly powerful magic why is it so easy for you because it is my calling there is little else to explain we're gonna get more lore on Withers or if it's just um uh you know if it's just a convenient sort of like utility NPC but I wonder if there's story parts to them later on so yeah this is how we can race back and we can like completely change ourselves um a bunch but we don't need to do any of that right now just happy to have you here Withers foreign [Music] I don't think there's any other exclamation marks or anything right this second so let's go ahead and um we're gonna go and end the day although what it's gonna do first is just going to our bedtime clothes and then we get exclamation marks to go around here hello Shadow heart finally some good fortune she slipped into something less comfortable we know the Sulu we find the Druid house in the better I can't wait to get rid of this thing I'm sure that you can kill these guys and take their underwear and wear it yourself I mean I'm just I'm just asking for a friend um yeah the better way to get rid of this thing I agree this could be our last night together okay there horndog how are you feeling the same these parasites are proving suspiciously you just wear it you just loot it from sure suppose I turn what would you do uh uh if you turned no hesitation I just end your misery then and there yeah I mean once you go with lifted that's it wise I hope you'd miss me after I'm gone I think I would if the positions were reversed but you're right if we're to make it through all this there can be no room for hesitation you're doing well let's see if we can swap clothes it's a beautiful night I think I'll stay up to enjoy it while I still can rest well hang on [Music] that hurts underwear shoulder hurts clothes oh yeah baby look at me oh 100 100 although where did the giant cleavage hole go are you telling me that somehow this fits better and doesn't leave a big gap on me as opposed to Shadow heart the blade of Frontiers let's hope will lives up to his name and I sure will need all the help we can get oh I didn't realize it'd be more convo yeah those murals on the Grove something about them seemed to catch your eye what can I say they were eye-catching look at the stitching here consider me an art lover I guess they just changed the gap we just did a reswing change the skin gaps sure yeah sure hmm let's talk about what happened to us fine what's on your mind um a worm how am I holding up in your estimations pay attention as a new subscriber you've been a surprise Henley and not an unpleasant one Kindred Spirits are few and far between for me besides you saved my life aboard the nautiloid how can I do anything but sing your praises and we've had a few Shadow heart approves uh we should get to know each other a little more must we no harm in a little mystery don't you think oh I just think we learned a little bit about Shadow heart actually um hey you don't want to talk about yourself I should hope not have you ever heard the people who want to talk about themselves I'm doing you a favor um you know if you if you're not comfortable I won't press you although she didn't say she's not comfortable with it at this point you know but maybe I'd like to know you better sweet of you but don't worry I'm sure you'll get to know me just fine by traveling together no need for interrogations there I mean we it's you know we haven't been together that long that's fine yep that's you prefer I respect that I'm not gonna accuse him hiding something I'm sure we'll get along perfectly well I think a visual novel now uh should Journey separately for now well Hang on we're gonna see we gotta kick someone out to get Lazelle into the party I'm not sure who that's going to be yet I suppose we don't need the cleric as badly if we've got me because I can also provide healing spells and I might want to grab will for a bit because it's super cool you know I've been thinking instantly lounging tomorrow my brain when we find the Druid will he staring you don't actually have to be this sexy all the time my god well this little adventure of ours be over have to be we can still travel together probably once the warm is gone go my way what will you miss me I mean starian sees quilt coming and assumes the full Lounge position boy am I happy I changed clothing for this interaction too um I mean three could be perceived as flirty but could also just be like you know just sort of needling friends and you know have that kind of thing we could still travel together it's true I'm gonna I think I'm gonna go with three though will you miss me why not nice buns I work out [Music] been to the hell isn't back five the crash survived everything that's followed that dude went full paint me like one of your French elves he's stronger than I gave you credit for it was busy last week during bg3 that dude a vampire just look like one I can't believe Essentia I can't believe you would go and for some reason start to accuse random pale people with neck wounds and little things to maybe be a vampire I I I'm shocked and offended I mean Wow way to profile people I mean ah he doesn't Sparkle in daylight so I don't think he can be a vampire I don't know um I thought you didn't like me true I'm pretty impressive just trying to survive like you I have many talents you want to explore them dude just because you got the sexy clothes on you know relax you're too close you're like three I'm just trying to survive like you yes way more similar than I thought are you feeling all right look you're starting to salivate a little it's freaking me out man maybe we gotta you know this caller here maybe we need to make it a little higher oh just need to get some as a reminder no spoilers are tolerated here I'm sure I was gonna say we will make it subscriber only chat if need be we'll also mute people temporarily if need be no spoilers and follow up here we're traveling with the famed everyone's excited about Will already uh okay lizelle fine evening don't you think the Moonlight shines and she's cut the breeze caresses our faces hideous all of it what that I were doing battle up there the freeze crafts are faces among the tears I guess Among the Stars huh yeah um I'm thinking saloon's tears were is referred specifically now that might not be what she's talking about but I think saloon's tears refers to a specific constellation of stars that seems to follow the Moon [Music] It Rocky bodies tumbling through the sea of night it's my crash are all get Yankee from the tears your curiosity is to be commended engaged in crashes all throughout realm space clear is one of many it's there I first saw a kithrak mount a red dragon yeah I think it is an asteroid field split my cousin's throats at the vash's command but enough of this you are wasting your wasting time Dawn we resume our search for a crash hang on hang on hang on hang on hang on wait oh wait she's not in the party I guess I'll have to bring her into the party uh uh then do an outfit swap I'm curious to see what that looks like on us we're gonna just try it's gonna be like a really weird like group we've got here we're always sharing clothes and swapping clothes girl runs through your head and down to your feet and by feet there it is that shiver our little brain worms have made Fast Friends it would seem how do you feel I mean probably surprisingly fine in spite of it all but probably two I I don't like the idea of that thing in my brain I mean I guess I could flip around but no we'll go ahead and answer it's natural to suffer a touch of worry but an A lipid worm should be causing more than mild anxiety before the methods unscheduled surgery I'd felt hundreds of beasts and a fair few fiends the tadpole but you are still level one suppressed greater talents but beyond that oh I've showed no signs of turning no nausea no pain she's saying he was high level he got reset to level one I see I see something special about us or at least about our tadpoles yeah so I I talked about this last stream but uh based on just a slightest dabbling in Early Access I always thought there's something special going on that's protecting us from being turned from the tadpoles but I've now come to feel that it's maybe that the tadpoles that we have are just different I mean maybe they'll still change Us in the long run but they are meant to do something different hey blank 1982 thanks to the sub so yeah something special about us or at least are tadpoles indeed perhaps the worms vat was poisoned perhaps we're uncommonly fit some of us are perhaps the tadpoles are merely on holiday we could conjecture all night I suppose the why doesn't matter so much as the what next and that answer is plain as the horns on a war Devil's Head we get these things out let's get some rest Dawn comes sooner than we think the gold man still infest the roads as long as their leaders live Zev lost people attract I wish we'd actually had a will maybe around for more of the interactions in town since he was known there it might have changed a few things I mean how did you become the blade of the Frontiers my father once said oh proofs one does not pursue a Champion's life one merely answers its call so it was for me I was hunting near the club could when I heard it child crying out from a lone Farmstead I found him in the fields flanked by goblins his mother's corpse bled into the soil next to him I don't remember much of the battle but I remember drying the boy's tears after whatever became of the boy I wonder I left him with his uncles Five Years on and he's flourishing if only every child was so lucky I'd mourned the ones I could never save whose cries I never heard in the boy's tears I finally saw the suffering wrought by the villains of the Wild the Frontiers demanded a blade and so I heeded right while durian background it's nice to finally put a face to the name it's interesting that we couldn't actually choose like where we were from in the game uh for that Baldur's Gate born and raised the only son of a single father he wanted one life for me I chose another we haven't spoken since I left the city the classic drama a staunch father and his rebellious son better heard from The Bard's lips than mine well if only we could have The Bard ah so how does the blade of Frontiers end up chasing a devil in the Hills carlux fires raged in Baldur's Gate before she escaped no I don't think it's based in the origin I think regardless the origins where Baldwin and she was planning to return one of the archdevils Ariel's own chaos and carnota devil with pure fire for a heart I made my way to avernus to stop her she fled from my reach even climbed aboard the Mind flayer ship as it screeched through the hells I followed in close Pursuit I can't bear to imagine the lives kalak might be taking the damage she might be doing from the moment will comes in he totally gives me that that zinc like Paladin from d d movie Vibe not in Persona anything like that but the the sort of role that they're fitting right because he shows up very heroically he kicks a bunch of ass everyone knows him everybody loves him exactly that same sort of vibe right and especially now like with all the stuff that he's done it's very very much feels like the MPC that's been brought in um to to just be way more impressive than everyone else in the party um yeah who's the source of yours since you are a warlock a powerful friend with a keen interest in friendor privacy fiend I'm sworn to say no more all right let's move on to other matters all right anything more we should discuss it's like I could say don't mention the eye don't mention the eye now we'll mention the eye notice your stone eye did you lose it in battle our most vicious one in fact it's made from Pure Bloodstone carved from the gallon of mountains just north of the Moon sea yeah blood must be shed and sacrifices must be made ah but that story is reserved for Lifetime friends and calmer days by all means anything more we should discuss yeah I'd like you to join me I mean join the party I mean join me make some room and I'm all yours all right yeah we'll have to boot someone first yes got no exclamation mark really so what I think I'm gonna do is I'm going to boot Gail in exchange for will um because he'll be able to Eldridge blast and maybe add a touch of like an Arcane Vibe um and I think I'll drop a Starion for Lazelle which does mean not having a row ground for lock picking but I think we'll do that anyway how can I help leave I question the wisdom of that decision but so be it I'll be here in the meantime idling away the hours although okay unless I drop shadow heart on the basis that I am a Divine spellcaster I just I like Shadow heart but yeah maybe we keep a staring around for now because we might need a rogue let's let's drop shot a heart for a bit and see what happens oh yeah it's a good point hold on Shadow heart can she lock pick with her her worship and stuff what am I looking for in keys I'm looking for this for shadow heart she's only got the 13 decks now she doesn't have sleight of hand as a proficiency what am I to do shadowheart and lizelle are fun together though yeah you know what I want to see the interaction of Shadow heart and Lazelle with Gail and Camp you still need to feed him item so I don't know what do you need now oh darling I'm hurt I thought we had something special ah we just stay here I guess I'll spend my evenings lounging here well you do all the hard work it's I was about to express that close and just me Max and party choosing people based on who he likes yeah it's it's hard though because I so we are gonna we are doing it we're keeping Shadow heart around because I like her and I think there's gonna be some fun drama llama between her and Lazelle and I'm all about that drama they get Yankee people have a word from like the blade blade roughly translated ideally or better yet benevolent burden his confidence is an asset his pursuit of Valor not so much uh I sure question only about the Cure I mean it's the one that she knows best and she probably feels is like a guaranteed cure we've done this hundreds of times it's going to work you look unusual if you think you're wearing these parts dude so racist you know much about mindflowers like to join like you to join me um I guess we'll ask about the crash being the only path to a cure entirely entire contains the safest purification device so I learned your crush is literally in space right the library was the gift from vlakif herself that we may gain total understanding yeah who's best girl you cannot change my mind he does have like some of the best hair there's no denying that um yeah so I think it's probably fair right now that we go looking for the Druid who should just be nearby and might have a cure you know even if we're not 100 sure he can do it since her crush is in space [Music] um learned it from the writings library is a gift from belkith all right uh kind of awesome is very valuable through the astral sea and Beyond observing the ways of our lessers exploring planes so distant order turns to chaos and cold fires rage planes are ever quaking and their peoples ever Shifting the gift Yankee position I could put her in the purple outfit knowledge yet we still collect more I mean I kind of want more info it just feels like rude to say okay let's be honest it's the nose it's the like nose that's way too small for her face like what's the deal with your nose why don't you sound like you talk like this it's gonna be so rude but I want more info so I'm going with that I you could be hmm I'd never heard of your kind until my capture notifici never met one cross pathic of Yankee before I don't think there's any good reason why Dell even though he is you know he is older and wiser and all these things I was gonna suggest that he's never encountered one but I suppose he's probably heard of them yeah I have a lot of gift Yankee friends some of my best friends are get Yankee of course you haven't whoa they would have cut check her into a barred call her Michael Jackson no less alien to me than I am to you I know of your kind but I do not often encounter them that large fleshy nose of yours looks like a mistake oh oh oh oh oh we're going there with the nose holy [ __ ] you just called she just said I had a big nose wow as if you're upturned bat snout is any better I kind of want to like you know just like I think she honestly I'm not sure she would mind because there's definitely like sort of a strong sort of antagonistic culture sort of built into it and I suspect that she might actually like have some amount of respect for that but I don't think Dell would say it but yeah hang up with this really thanks for noticing the way she turns her head when she's like reacting to you know trying to express sort of like dislike or disgust is interesting because it's it sort of represents almost a reflex of like if you smelled something bad right like that but it's being brought in as a social cue right we have all these sort of mannerisms and things that we do in conversation but that I like because it's giving sort of an alien kind of vibe uh so do you know a lot about mind players more to the point I know the cure for our condition it is imperative we locate a crash you do well to observe more and question less so cranky uh do you know what happens we don't find a cure I mean yes we sort of do great detail starts with a fever and men Liza looks like a character that you didn't want to spend too much time in the character creation screen when it got to the face you just choose the maxiors and then nose and be shed to reveal new flesh underneath then you have ceased to exist and a mind flayer is born you know I don't think it's so bad that we talked over the bleeding from every orifice parts of the uh the conversation here that seems like it's okay yeah so that doesn't sound like a transformation we want to get through it gave you a heart attack too yeah thank you very much that lane boy for that yeah just super lazy max out one slider minimize another slider and you end up with Lazelle um why is this specifically an else response a loathsome fate and one I intend to avoid who is my mood all the time try to suppress your Rising panic may your actions express the same metal all right you must find my kind and be rid of the parasite it's as simple as that first symptoms should have long since started though that is what puzzles me you're worried we haven't changed it's good news I mean obviously yes yes if you give it no further thought can't blame her bad surprises besides what hasn't happened May yet come to pass I'd like you to join me it is done excellent I'd also like to swap clothes with you because I'm really curious to see what I'm gonna look like in that outfit probably super hot as I say why is her outfit icon just pants but to be fair she's basically just wearing pants oh I don't know what's with the back arch you know what I'm better looking the other outfit hang on let's swap back now uh oh did I not take the purple clothing very important I know some of some people are probably like get on with the story no it doesn't matter we're playing dress-up we're doing the things that matter you guys like settle down right diplomancy I'm trying the underwear the underwear swaps although I mean we could right because what we can do is I can take off the outfit there's the underwear right [Music] wait how can how do you zoom in more damn ah wow okay I have to say though that now if we were just wearing pants uh hold on okay she's still gonna have underwear on it's fine now if we were just wearing pants and that okay okay much much much much better much better but I still like it the other way so uh we'll swap there we're swapping underwear we'll give her that back I like this right Shadow Hearts clothes I'm gonna wear that but then yeah if we give her um I don't think she'd like us very much if we made her wear this but it is pretty funny [Music] there you go [Music] there's purple underwear as well yeah like if we did this we could swap or purple undies or the trunks this is like this is for the beach episode foreign I'm pleased with this uh so yeah let's go and pick up Will I mean he's got he's got some he's gonna fit too I don't think I want to wear that one though I like mine although Will and this that's the spirit yeah beach party filler episode um let's swap close I mean basically it doesn't matter who wears this outfit in our party male or female it does it for me but I don't want to wear I don't want to wear this it looked fine on will I don't think it's what I want for myself so we'll do this it looks fine on him but we'll be on the lookout for other casual clothes all right so good Barney we got ready for some level UPS I guess we can do that now now we need to get lizelle up to at least at level two as a fighter because this will give her action surge which is awesome right we accept that now for level three level three does give us access to a specialization which is probably worthwhile because what I'm wondering is do we go and multi-classer into Barbarian for rage because let's be honest I think rage would fit Lazelle pretty well um with the Feats is it based on character level or classes we need to get level four and fighter to pick a feat I don't think so I think it's based on character level but I think we got to pick the specialization now it's defaulting her to Battle Master which is pretty good this will give us some Maneuvers right with the superiority dice yeah uh Eldritch Knights give us some magic and stuff which is very cool uh super cool I don't think I want it for her class level it is class level okay because that's because that's what I remember in 5e but I didn't know about Baldur's Gate so we need to get it now we want to get her to level four as a fighter so that we get the feet pick and then consider doing some multi-classing although it'll depend what's level five is fighter right the level five fighter is what extra attack now Champion I think is like the the simple fighter with not much the active going on it just gives you the um number you need to roll critical hit while attack is reduced by one that can stack so we get more crits but we don't have anything like that we have to do active or anything like that [Music] feet pick oh the internet you guys are terrible so no we're gonna go with the Battle Master we're gonna pick some Maneuvers now what are these strong Maneuvers over here um redirect analy is strike a full so someone else was attacking we could get useless to get Dolores to smack someone as a bear some more disarm distracting strike allies advantage next attack roll Ace of footwork imposing disadvantaged melee attacks on you for around repost does work nicely yeah when a creature misses you oh this is gonna be the retaliation so there's gonna be a reaction that happens automatically right I do like that a lot sweeping back for AOE the trip might be valuable rally given Ally eight temporary hit dice or hit points that's quite good the building pushing attack is quite fun too [Music] okay this is just add to your chance to hit which is potentially good frighten maneuvering attack on hit select which friendly creature will gain half its movement speed but no attack for opportunity oh going attack deals additional damage attempt to go with the target attacking your target receives just advantage on attacking any other creature okay so it does set you up for some tanking kind of stuff which is kind of good I like that and yeah I'm worrying about the trip give him some knockdown oh it even works range that's interesting I think we'll do this and the thing is if I don't end up being very active with those it's uh okay because we might want to use our dice for a post you like we're posting menacing attack trip tackle is a good one yeah the menacing with the frighten is a pretty good trait I mean I think it's hard to be disappointed with anything here and of course we can always respect as well we'll go ahead and accept that now will first of all what are you looking at stat wise you've got dark ones blessing yeah when you kill something you get temp HP yeah you make for a good party face actually skill wise he's very redundant with uh with the lures he does bring Arcana though although not a tremendous amount now while he does have a signature blade and presumably at level three you choose the pack bonus or whatever it feels like like he's definitely set up to go pack to the blade and just like skewer people with this but I find it hard to not you know go and focus on Eldritch blast stuff right I mean hex is like one of the signature warlock spells if he's gonna be up in melee the hellish rebuke is not a bad thing because he's more likely to get targeted which means it's that much more likely that hellish rebuke will fire off all the time but I think I'm gonna hex oh yeah and then we can get the super dark vision here since he is he's human so he doesn't have dark vision um and the 24 meter range is going to be great for all his his shooting um and then yeah I think if we're gonna do Eldritch blast stuff I think we pick agonizing blast so we can add our Charisma modifier the damage it's just such a huge thing yeah Elders blast and hex are the Warlock stuff I I feel a little bit bad because it does feel like flavor-wise he's really well set up to be um really focused on the pack weapon maybe that would go well with something else although you know what these are still pretty good bass line things we don't need the built-in B speech because we got the Druid yeah repelling blast does do some sick things actually um unless I'm getting confused with things uh demon act plays a warlock in a campaign Iran um with repelling blast and like all kinds of nonsense to keep shoving people around ruined all my fights all the time because you can constantly reposition all the enemies anyway we could swap out a spell I didn't want arms of Hadar or armor of agathis I could swap those out for now I'm not gonna I'm not gonna do anything I'll just leave them as is that Charisma to come in you spokesperson I mean that's actually here's the thing he is really good at conversation stuff and maybe we should make in the front I like having my main character do main character things but at the same time it will mean that Dolores can spend more time like not shifting out of bear form or something like that you know all right level two spell and I think now if we just swap we could swap out a level one spell for another level two blindness clouded daggers is an interesting AOE uh right you throw it on someone the attack whatever's closest drop some Darkness on people and throw make it look at you sort of lock it in whole person I don't I think I might I want invisibility especially if we're not bringing if we're bringing will instead of Gail having someone who can do invisibility stuff is kind of nice as a player I mean I love Misty step and if we're mailing with him there'd probably be a lot more value in Misty step but I'm hoping to just keep will out of the way but part of me part of me is still wondering if I should just give in to his melee waves scorching raid does ridiculous amount of damage shatter is really quite good too and then we get some level one stuff oh yes warlock spells Auto leverage your max the spells that can be upcast are good that's true so even level one versions that's a great point I don't know if they're like they're detailed in here now which ones scale up I don't know what do we feel about the invisibility or [Music] no I like it I'm gonna go from viz all right pack Boon it's interesting it didn't Auto Select one for him so again I feel like for him the thing would be the pact of the blade right let's summon a packed weapon which feels very good for him and um and this is using this is something that's normally only part of the hex blade uh which is as opposed to the pack of the blade is you get to use your spell casting modifier instead of strength to dexterity so we use our Charisma to attack which would make us quite a bit better but um packs of the chain I don't think I'm gonna get a familiar I think I want to go back to the tomb here uh for some extra sort of spell casting um that will give um that will give will the ability to throw some guidance on us um which means we could have both Dell and um and Shadow heart maintaining a focus spell while he casts guidance forth which isn't actually that bad I don't think we'll end up using vicious mockery or Thorn whip here because we'll have Eldritch blast thank you does it lead to anything else packed at the tome in pen and paper it does so I'm assuming it might here too [Music] so is there any ability to find out how these things up level as cast as a level 2 does the arm of agassists give you 10 temp HP and more reflected damage which case it might still be worthwhile arms of hadars who just does more damage my per level and Timber yeah so I know maybe we'll leave them in because they still work for me you know what we'll call that good enough we can always respect from Withers if we change our minds I'm gonna I'm gonna get to playing I gotta get killing stuff um you know what I should have done is grab the shield off of someone else to give it to you not to mention some armor that's the thing with like swapping these people around from time to time we're gonna end up in some awkward situations where people don't necessarily kit it out properly yeah good night all right let's come over here we got a few lootables and we got something to read and we're gonna finish our night's rest holding random Bucket over there can I wear the helmet Invasion plans for the sword Coast station is this um it's Marco sprawls from the deep force of tether to The Frigid spine in the world it's topography worn by Ancient Ancient concentrate between Mortal hands all right let's finish our snooze uh so Auto Select so what are we gonna have for dinner tonight we're gonna have some Fritz courgette some gruel some potatoes an orange and some cheese oh and some fish quite a quite a varied meal here ought to be one or two optional invocation inside each different path and no idea because I am so bad at showing future options yeah there's gonna have to be a lot of Wiki stuff oh we're gonna get a Starion moment here foreign wait was that not a Starion creeping about I was looking away for a second I expect this to be the cutscene where he tries to bite us did we just fail perception track so we don't notice that we're being bitten maybe he's feeding someone up on someone else in the party all right let's leave camp just went for a walk this is ridiculous okay um hey don't walk away from me I gotta talk to you not enough come to rip me open too in Crash clear a formal greeting begins with a bow is this monster with you you heard the woman bow the just you do as she says I don't know I got kind of like seriously that's not the way to start a conversation there lately here's the thing I kind of want to see what she does because it's sort of she was leading to something here uh but we brought it for a reason you know what we'll let her take the lead here Shadow heart unhappy yeah that's gonna be an issue with having both of them together [Music] [Laughter] hmm all right that's enough I'll take it from here I feel bad for this guy no you dare interrupt has the tadpole ravaged your senses fine do as you must be keep it quick you saw another gift where on the road to Baldur's Gate near the mountain part saw us for we saw it Jam this blade through your belly straight to the other side no twisting kin must have been one likes you yeah she's like what oh my God man I didn't say anything we're gonna have a talk later I mean I didn't bring her because like blood still flows through his own veins I was positively gentle okay we can fix her um like we did bring her because it's like okay I can get this cure to do this and we said fine fine we'll work you through to do the correction she's like okay I know where to start and this is this is it we're like I mean we said we'd you know do things your way but I'm not sure I want to do things your way the locals prove compliant I warned you didn't I you were to reconsider keeping her around before she causes real trouble I mean seriously we're talking about someone who worships an evil God she's way nicer than you are I like I like Jose I think it's a great personality I'm just like I'm not sure how to mesh this all in in the party foreign we meet yep what comes next the teethling was clear ly thank you west of here that must be our objective purification cannot wait yeah I'm still thinking we're gonna go for the Druid first did you say tiefling no you well we'll let it slide what do you mean purification the crash holds the safest it will cleanse us of the parasite yeah I'd like to know more you can say no more yeah but I would like to know more all right did you say tiefling I am unfamiliar with the well I shall not say culture custom perhaps you will educate me on matters of this yeah she's fine problem doesn't fit with a lot of PCS much less the other NPCs she is actually awesome they did such a great job with her character excellent we're walking around someone said they did see the rat at some point is it scurrying about or is someone just messing with me because I know there's a rat with some things involved in there but again I got slightly spoiled on well not exactly it's like spoiled I just saw people going there in one of the YouTube Let's Plays so I know you can yeah I do hear squeaking the Goblins didn't die if I met heroic Enrique of this place I'll never get the smell out of my clothes it doesn't show up as like a DOT on the map jump we're great for new [ __ ] okay so now that we've got I'm actually tempted to just pop to the camp for a while not to do a sleep but just to swap lizelle out what to bring one more time I mean she's very powerful as a fighter we can actually use her but I mean we can use all the NPCs just fine it was a moving yellow dot was it oh there hang on uh or else yeah we'll go with turn base but if I couldn't click on it I was gonna go turn based um what's wrong nothing's wrong just get back oh oh my tooth you have like a weird spot of purple on the back of your neck might just be lighting let me take a look I'm I'm a dentist it's the front one I chipped it on the evil thing what what evil thing what are you trying to eat oh yeah what evil thing I literally said it so I guess I'll say it in the Box follow me I'll show you there we go right um well now I have reason to go inside which makes me think we're gonna drop lizelle for a second of staring back to pick the doors true yep we've got reason to come in I think there's a hole in the roof yeah we can just smash our way through the door ah there's a hole in the roof over here hey oh and a pouch wait and just also we could have walked around interesting okay let's there we go let's say what's with the damage is there a back door this place is off limits no it's cool the rat told me I could come in let's go around study your face and try to read her emotions I do have good insight we could throw our uh owl's wisdom on again you just start rolling Persuasion don't worry I'm here to help uh Freddy can't been places I've been placed in charge of this area hush girl another word and I'll snap your neck jeez I want to do insight because I feel like when I get a chance to be sort of studious um and thoughtful with the lures here that's what I want to do so what we're going to do is we're going to have Al's wisdom oh um Shadow heart must be out of range again so we're not gonna be able to do owl wisdom from one of us and then guidance from the other but Advantage is pretty powerful place in charge drop through a hole in the roof you note her Grimace of pain something is wrong with her legs damn it don't don't look at me like that you can stay just keep your hands to yourself great hair color um need a hand up you look ridiculous come on I just fall back down legs are aesthetic ity potion was that about a potion where'd you get those potions quite dodgy Brew don't worry not the only one who had trouble standing after too many potions she can't come after you take her bag and leave or Druid might have been Nightshade maybe Hemlock poison basically what no the potion worked I'm strong as a bug bear and fearless the old lady warned me that this might happen that it was a side effect I mean seems like a pretty shitty side effect to an otherwise like potion of like heroism uh sounds like you've been duped no she's been nothing but kind to me we do know there's a hag out there sorry I need a moment I'm not not feeling the best but I'm sure it'll pass what is going on um all right let's get everyone in here already should follow unless they're still stuck outside which they are okay can I just open the door from this side no all right hold on let me finish my conversation with the rat here oh I can see why she can't move her legs because they're clipped through the floor that makes sense yeah the evil things in the chest okay the chest is currently well it's not locked but it'll be considered theft I think we're gonna have to uh fix the situation pandira first if this isn't the most boring Post in the Grove I don't know what is there's a job to guard that chest can we can we fix your legs restoration cures paralysis we've also got cure wounds we're gonna be going out into the wild soon anyway oh I gotta recast my long Strider on anyone apparently it's an enhanced leap is super useful and drop it for a sec though here wounds lesser restoration here let's try a restoration first all right it's too far well then walk up to her for crying out loud seriously my legs stand again did you do that I thank you look you're not really supposed to be here yeah it was kind of spoiling a scene annoyingly just don't touch anything all right my own fault just don't touch anything yeah but I want to touch the chest the the chest here not not being inappropriate listen Mr radus radicus the third evil things in the chest right but you're practicing standing up and sitting down hold on look between us you're not supposed to be here but I'll turn a blind oh she's blind now don't touch anything all right yeah but no but but that let's touch it and see what happens not everyone subscribes to what is mine is your minus okay yep minus eight okay can I convince her to leave if I pick the door she's gonna get cranky about that too and we could try sneaky snuff let's see try a sleep spell I mean I don't really want to go around Roofing NPCs the other hand I really want to help this rat we're no longer in a vision cone is that all it takes or am I gonna go to the front of the chest again for communal use yeah I wasn't on sneak mode so maybe that was it shows cast blindness on her I can't even put a bucket on her head it works in Skyrim that's true I could distract her and have someone else do the theft I could turn into cat form then go talk to the rat not for communal uses yeah and then she immediately turns shows or more cunnings no I'm bad at stealthy things see at this point like if I like just thinking from a character point of view I'd be like why can't you commit where's the persuade check of like you need to go outside now you don't like this post well you know what you can do you can go and do something else I mean yeah we can do with someone stealthy but it does feel a little bit weird the whole thing feels come the whole thing feels crap so I may go ahead with plan replace Lazelle with a stereo and I think that's exactly what we're gonna do right now [Music] cabinet key Alchemist cabinet yeah but I'm not gonna go and steal from that now not after all this [ __ ] I mean we could have kept doing it with the stealth but at this point I don't care I just gotta get out of here and do something else because that whole interchange just drove me just someone said they were able to like have a conversation and have it work did we do something different today in here maybe it was a class-based thing maybe you had to be a Bard or some other thing to like get them to do something different the rats say anything after no he was just happy I mean he said something technically but not much which is like that felt like there was more of a trap than there or more of a quest than there was let me find out the monster hunter is becoming a monster I faced countless perils and conquered them all this will be no different I've always had a soft spot for The Confident ones they always disappoint there I don't know if I have to disarm this traffic just go around it but it's because Juno's amount of toolkits here isn't it good roll there's probably more to it in some context but the whole thing finding the red outside was stupid and annoying because it keeps moving around ah no it made me so cranky but it did I hated every part of the interaction in that Quest every single part of it I hated it wasn't even like if you're gonna have something that's a little tricky to do like you know finding the rat and even then the rat didn't I was hoping the rat would give us a weigh-in that wasn't breaking and enter and it wasn't the rat was sort of just a breadcrumb to go into the building which is like okay so I guess we're still doing breaking and entering um oh those are the Goblins out here that would be theft he was so gentle that's yeah and like cruel word really don't deny the heads nor Hearts I wouldn't quite say that I learned the lesson after all you came to resent your tutor I bet I taught them to fight not to hate yeah I know we can skip those roles how come you gotta reorder this put me over here uh then Shadow heart next there we go let's move tracks goblins [Music] I don't think there's ever been a stealth section in a game that hasn't just made me and I really apologize that I got cranky but the entire the entire nature of that thing just was like the entire thing was designed to be anti-quil probably great for lots of other people exactly wrong for me in every way shape or form foreign but think of the stories you'll be able to one thing I would very much like is to have a okay no it's here all right as I say because you can get the conversation log when you're in a conversation but for this just like random over land conversations like this I wanted to see the chat log um is this the owl bear cave yeah the only reason again I was like I was flipping through some videos I got kind of spoiled on the fact that there was a thing there and that restoration was the solution although the person I was watching also didn't realize that you could do it it was chat that sort of had to guide them to do it so it was like there's not a lot of guidance for that entire Exchange did you try a heel first and the heel doesn't work only restoration Rune of the eagle oh hello [Music] is that the ruin we need to open the door in the little Druid cave in their Circle glowing eyes are rarely a good sign oh these are laser beams I keep trying to hit space to go to turnbain mode that doesn't work the laser beam statues that's right cracker worm okay so we got goblins in here at least we got the drip if you're a poly cleric you actually get let me heal with magic dialogue option but not a druid even though we have access to the same spells yeah that's really [ __ ] up then weird when he was screaming so yeah we just took a crap ton of damage and I'm on fire here I do have a vague memory of this from one time in Early Access but that's about it let's get a flaming Barrel here so that's going to be more fire effect I guess we could just we just pull back and just try to kill this from from range I feel like is the thing to do here we don't know how far it can fire but clearly around here so I'm just gonna pull back as much as I can I don't know hamstring shot shouldn't make a difference here we got high ground oh oh they're tough I don't remember that being a thing I know when we did this in um in or way early access yeah I don't think it had the sturdy trait because we were built to blow up all these statues yeah so I could do a sneak through here depending on how the statues actually spot things [Music] is it turn based mode and just pull back no time to rest oh good I made my saving throw awake and a lot keeper blade close um is there a command to just split one person off because I know what I can do is I can toggle group mode and then I could like regroup other people by doing this but is there a way to just split someone off from the group because that might be handy G just breaks one person out thanks I expect this won't work but let's give it a try maybe it will out of these things spawning but I'm not sure that I want to go and be in here give him something to cry about don't wear his voice out still need answers well they do have a person I mean so from a gaming point of view from that point of view I'd be like okay well we can leave and come back later or something like that but from a let's role play the characters here we're seeing this actively happen so presumably it's you know real time if we don't intercede Something's Gonna Go on they've got a druid there also I want this Rune of the eagle this is an eagle oh is it a pattern I thought this was maybe oh oh this is completely different from when I was in here in the original Early Access it's completely different okay um I thought this was the thing we could bring back and open up the Druid Grove but no at least things have stayed interesting I've got a long road ahead very well we're you guys are gonna stay back here hang on hang on will visibility oh [ __ ] it's a touch well if a fight starts a fight starts okay you guys pull back over here they keep ourselves entertained let's start moving here oh maybe with a jump I make that jump well this was more fun when he was screaming could wake him up by chopping off a turd yep there you go that'd be funny we still need answers um I should have given him uh super jump to get over there on the other hand these guys I'm still invisible only for three turns us about this damn weapon yeah she'll kill us dead if we go back without it we'll get it through it I wonder what the perception checks are doing I guess it's highlighting the statues oh did I miss a button that's why I'm stabbing all the rats one because there's two of them over there dead human I don't see another blue glowing blue uh panel right now all right so now that those are done we're gonna be ready to get into some fighting is what we're gonna do hey quill pay attention there's a new subscriber hey Dodge thanks for the sub so I should be able to get over here with the Starion and there's partial light but no one's you know no vision cone and theoretically an obstacle I'm down by the water after jumping because there was one here Rune of the Wolf which is there hey what about this one here so if we can manage to sneak up on this guy we could do a shove off the cliff that is 100 true yeah we'll do pretty well with The High Ground with most people here um although that might open up a stair into too many attacks foreign I think I'm gonna get Dell to come around here on my way and just get in um a closer position here uh cause we're gonna want him to be ready to do melees today such as mud that's fine Shadow heart can mostly do range things up here that's going to be fine silence is gold not a peep then I'm going to want to end turn not that I think it matters because I think it'll roll initiative when we start combat but I just want to make sure we're all fresh for the start here and I think I'm going to start with Will where's the hex there you go which is a bonus action um I don't know if we're hexing any particular thing here uh I suppose dexterity because we could use with Shadow heart she could use her um her flame summon anything yeah well if I cared about the shove but this guy's got like seven HP we're just gonna kill him we do have the surprise round good actually even with a surprise I thought it's not really a thing there we go that's done two steps at a time while you're here to push my luck again sorry I didn't mean to end your turn oh that's why it's not okay hold okay I forgot I had to select the type of hex okay now you're done and for Dell I think I'll probably ranged attack and then shape shift it's probably fine I'm gonna get this Advantage oh outside normal range oh and the mud is slowing well that's unfortunate I have to keep going all right there we go ah concentration broken on the hex such a shame all right hardly a big deal though it'll be 75 anyone let's hit the one in the back got the most hit points although he didn't die to that um I don't feel like I need to move will I think I'm happy with where he is shouldn't have made me your enemy ah wait the rest of the party's not in combat oh [ __ ] I was wondering about like why the rest haven't gone yet I guess because they were still hidden ah they were still stealth I hadn't realized Mike why is will getting to go again there we go I have heard great things about the Assassin which we didn't pick here but maybe I shoulda this is mine because that was that was very cool sorry I'm getting some answers because I'm in snare [Music] watch your back so bear Dell did take a ton of damage but that's fine open up just be on my way enabled oh yeah I want to do the talking yeah I better drop out of this form anyway it's pretty damaged so his breaths are shallow his wounds deep he doesn't respond to your voice hey there we go um we're getting hit point did you you short rest oh thank you thank you I thought I was gonna die down here so this is intended to be a druid Grove I guess how did the Goblins slip into the Grove is no one looking for you a surprise the Goblins didn't get you on sight why didn't they well they wanted info apparently I'm here to finish what they started how did the Goblins slip into the Grove it's my fault I thought I'd give them the slipper they followed me through the tunnel back there I must tell the others what happened I stepped careful there are traps in these tunnels and thank you again oh hero timely rescue Will is inspired there was more loot to be had however before we do that um a couple of things I'm gonna drop lesser restoration I'm gonna drop your wounds I'm gonna put in healing word again are people standing in acid all right I was gonna say I could create water to get rid of this maybe I will or maybe we can just jump from here um it's a long Strider let's put in hand sleep in for a second here um I'm gonna drop cause I do want to be a little bit more combat oriented here as we go around and a lot of these were social ones [Music] swap those back in if we need to uh the enhanced leap I won't necessarily need all the time but I want the long Strider all the time that's for sure because I want to put it on my only people let's see they're playing narrator can parse bad puns correctly why did the listing straw Bard tell a bad joke for the loaf why did lisping drow bar tell bad joke for the loaf if we get ourselves all long striders and also let me de-group myself and give me the enhanced leave not that I have the best strength in the party but that's still fine loot the human with a charred key long dead corpse interesting with me selected it ungrouped the entire party oh no G is still ungrouping everyone not just a single person breathe deep and move there's room near this room here the one we already turned off oh speak with Dad that's a cool idea yeah not as bad as it could have and away I go oh oh oh okay I thought he was gonna walk through acid again how you die buddy the first time using speak with dead oh someone's already asking these five questions [Music] yes I know you can drag the portrait out that's what we're doing but then I complained like would it be because it's a little finicky you do the drag you know because it's like hold on how far do we have to there it is there it is to break it you know uh and then I asked for a key and people said Gee which it seems to be a group in the whole party as opposed to just a single person that one back home will ever believe this I didn't loot you although we'd have to walk through the acid again I wonder if the gods may just do it by myself here seems like the best way let's come back up there and then we'll go back down if there's anything else that's going to be in that direction oh oh I guess we need a Starion for this actually step carefully oh there's a trap there's a trap well hello well hello indeed that's right here I don't want to waste this but hold on any chance that create water is a ritual spell no of course not Ah that's too bad huh exactly so presumably here the contextual button is disarmed I don't have to do a right click or anything it seems fine um dfd10 you've got so many positives we're not worried about it um I know that acid strips away armor I assumed it was also doing damage but if it was just reducing armor maybe that's the reason that the uh the characters weren't too worried about walking through it still locked oh the charge key is for this okay so we don't actually have to pick it Nature's snare is a Quarter Staff flytrap Chancellor and stair Target if it's not a plant or beast well let's send that to Dell to at least use a magic weapon work Fang I mean it I mean it doesn't have a plus to hit or anything and a lot of times it's gonna be an animal form but he may as well carry it because why not traps please I like how we have to crawl on top of the uh the bins to get some of these that's a water barrel so we could go and move this all the way down there to clear that but I'm not gonna another water barrel there is definitely something like generating some sort of blue tinty glow occasionally there's some Reflection In The Water occasionally some reflection over here and yeah it looks like the acid is just like a condition of AC so we don't have to worry about running in and out of this thing but I'm not people are saying I know I could throw it but I'm not gonna bother people are saying they see blue things over here but as far as I can tell it's just the occasional reflection I don't see anything else of value over here anyone wants to be specifical about it you can let me know but I'm not really seeing anything that actually stands out as an intractable you couldn't find anything down there and then hit the button you hit incorps elated okay so I think there's a back way into the Druid Camp you're gonna be historic and the sawza here rotting basket with a rotten Mushroom in it single use can I can I use it for crafting or anything oh where does this go [Music] it's interesting I assumed I was gonna have to jump here I mean I guess that's a path I don't like the look of that mushroom we should stay clear explosive mushroom s and your and your buddies it might just be a way out of this prison I'm gonna go ahead with plan like we don't have to go this way although just in case I end up coming this way later breaking into the prison yeah tell you what we can do actually from here we can just head back to here save ourselves from walking through the tunnel or anything of the sort there we go let's do this side area missing the cave up on the ledge was there it was a great scrap tour with the hankering for human flesh an ax-bearing Mountain of Fire she was gave me a nasty scarf I hope you don't mind if I don't ask to see it where do we miss is it actually worth coming back here that area missed in the cave up on a Ledge I mean there's ledge here we did see the heavy oh there was this area over here that's true that's right I remember seeing this earlier is there anything here oh there's another stone door okay that is interesting where does it lead Enclave Library watch how you go Ultra there's a lot of traps they've poisoned oh this is actively no no no no no no no no okay I think I have to rebind this to like just spacebar or something because I keep hitting space to try to pause real quick careful I might we don't have anything that we can put on this right now is there [Music] I'm sorry 30. I mean yeah we almost made it uh no We're Not Gonna Roll again here um we could just go around this and open this and access this is okay this is an area we can walk into this normally so it is interesting that it's here but I don't think there's any good reason for us to do this yeah maybe with guidance we might have been able to do it on that one but I don't think there's any good reason to go through this right now I mean thanks for pointing out that it's there because it's interesting to see it but I'm trying to get back to the story I get to the other side of that it's just that's just the um that's just the Druid Enclave place that's all it is so will with a why why that's right but why why why a great uncle to name my father said but I just figured he couldn't spell people up ahead something's wrong oh yeah yeah I don't need to pre-test anything you're a true soul you can't die stay with us don't think he's going can you hear us Ed you not a step closer strange symbol glows marked on their flesh within new stairs in response no Step Closer please hope your hands what happened your friend medicine his wounds look deep I might be able to help so at some point we have to decide if we are using the lithid powers or not here's the thing it does feel like they're out of character for how I managing dolors but I think that possibly our character is going to be influenced a little bit this thing in his brain potentially changing him you know and that's happened before right we get other feelings um we uh when we interacted with the machine to let Shadow heart out of her pod there was this whole thing in terms of like you know all of a sudden like feeling a sense of authority and pushing it Forward um and so clear that does happen and yeah I don't know the implications one way or another like I don't want to meta that way one way uh but Vibe wise I don't know like I want to experience that part of the game but that might be that might depend on the context and it might also be another playthrough kind of thing here we do have uh some wisdom it's not great because we don't actually have the skill for it um but we can do this I don't think we've got our owls wisdom anymore but let's go ahead and get that back or get that going on at all and we'll get a guidance over here I mean it's pretty easy to do but Isles wisdom sticks around so I kind of like Bring It On yeah so Alexis no [ __ ] spoilers please at all 100 strict 100 percent he's hurt badly and the oil bear got him deep if there's anything you can do I'm watching you the injured man lock size I feel like people have had all weekend to play the game now and we're getting a very different vibe in chat today which is leading to much less organic let's play and somewhat less interesting oh does he have a program in his brain too I think here we're gonna hold the stair we're gonna try to make contact your minds intertwine I mean I know that was only a mechanical sport why not really new recruits yours to Shepherd protect them he true soul mind him he will he he Edward Ed please he's with the absolute now yo you're a true soul Edwin our brother he was chosen like you do you have orders for us we were reporting to Edwin yeah I might have to I don't know I'm sorry I'm I mean maybe I'm in a strange mood today but I think it all started I feel like there's maybe I'm letting myself get micromanaged too much um which then led to frustration and the whole like the whole little cabin with the rat if I just maybe I should just focus on telling Dolores the story and it'll go back to better flow and more organic gameplay that we're having for the first couple of streams I think that's probably better we'll see um so I mean I'm not well maybe I am uh maybe I'm a true Soul right a mistake I'm a true Soul maybe I am a true Soul I'm not saying that um this I think you know we're not necessarily going to shoot that down immediately because this seems like the sort of thing we want to work with right maybe a little again you know not taking advantage of people but we'll take advantage of the situation and then hopefully do good things for these people um you know what explain this absolute to me what are you are you testing yes it's a test absolute is our goddess she's going to rip down the old world order start a new one then we'll be the ones with the power well you will firstly Crystal you don't need me to explain that a true Soul like you has been chosen by the absolute her voice and when the time comes the true Souls You Will Rule oh I like these two all Zeal and no brains I mean if we're playing quill from our Baldur's Gate like one and two playthrough 100 he'd be into this and that would be an interesting if I had just made a wizard and quill and doesn't it sort of a thematic continuation of our BG one and two evil runs he would eat all this stuff up and not in a dark urge way right like I want to do a Dark Age dark urge play through as well but I also want to do a more power hungry um less less benevolent run not necessarily evil but you know a little bit more a little greedier kind of thing [Music] novice so yeah if we want to if we want to do a little bit of uh subterfuge mistake no truthful man yes number three perhaps you can help me I'm looking for the Druid house in why are you out here the Wilderness is dangerous actually I might say uh four here why are you out here in the first place we know the well sir but sent us here we're looking for fugitives survivors from that ship that crashed farther west of here these fugitives tell me more we don't know what they look like but anyone who survived that crash is bound to be injured that's enough to get us started the absolute wants them found at any cost hmm [Music] um I mean that's true because we might be able to get like a guided uh entrance into wherever they're from right it's like yep you found us bring us back to your camp now although I'm still interested in this question but I'm gonna go with three right now I'm a Survivor of that crash looks like you found me yeah kill him what wait what did I miss I thought you were here to rescue us [Music] next combat log back in here they were looking for survivors to kill them oh you feel this all right I'm surprised that he fooled us but okay there where do I go from here if you guys want to sacrifice yourselves I guess that's fine too uh I'm just gonna leave this one up [Music] find survivors and give them your XP yep that's okay uh one of the things that Dell is here to do though is to provide some adjacency bonuses um so yeah that's gonna be it I mean I've got a Bonus action left oh wait I don't oh right actually lead okay discussion logs in the journal um oh wait hold on you're right they're called fugitives right that's why fugitives because I I was just thinking of this line right anyone's drive this crash bound to be injured I thought oh they're there to look for the injured people and bring them back but no they're looking for fugitives so that's why they thought it was us okay that's fine I'm okay with that um I have a steering selected we're gonna do this it's gonna get the sneak attack because of the flank I know flanking is not a thing but that's going to be fine you're mine oh my God what's your role I hate that you can't Mouse over that to get the info yeah you rolled a four well you got a ten the AC is only 11. actually this is just embarrassing then I don't really feel like we need to whip out any spells for this situation I mean if it wasn't the fact that we're just missing all the time skewing's pretty good um she could go in and melee she does have the Watchers guide that can do some funky things it could also just be a fireball situation a chance to hit in melees a little bit better six of one half a dozen all right go in there and melee she missed two at least show off true strike for an X attack uh we do have a bonus action available I could do a shove here I don't think there's any good reason to do that let's go ahead and spacebar and I guess you'll get your spell slots back when we short rest but you don't have it right now so that's okay we can do vicious mockery but you know what's also pretty effective at making people feel bad Eldritch blast there you go oh yeah we'll start with the Starion if he hits it should be a kill with a sneak attack and everything there you go yeah that's why I like magic missiles so much because I hate missing now we've got extra bonus actions and stuff here but we don't I think this thief might at some point get to use a bonus action to attack I'm not sure we just get the bonus and the extra bonus actions here and I'm still wondering if maybe I'll respect a stare into assassin give it a go because I do know it's very strong you guys just have clearly witnessed that I don't like doing the stealth mini game but it is clearly very good uh we're pretty injured here so rather than continue with shillating we're just gonna go ahead and drop the bear form so that we've got a fresh pool of hit points at 30. he does have usually interesting he's high defense I wonder what brings it up is it anytime you have under a 60 chance to hit it just got the extra thing in there to about high defense just like why do you need that reminder I guess it's letting you know that you're not having a low hit chance because of like environmental things or something like that it's because they legit have high AC just trying to figure out the logic for why they'd list it because it is you know kind of obvious just from the number we could use sacred flame on this guy yeah there we go much better so here because his AC is good but his Dex isn't great it's much easier to try the sake of playing this guy because he's got to make a dexterity saving throw which he's kind of crap at uh I don't who wants to come around and hit her like that's all I'm back yeah I don't think there's any reason uh let's get a hotkey going on for Eldritch blasts and I can cast it by hitting one now don't hit quill hey still has decent AC against this but [Music] I mean missing this guy was a little more legit missing the one with AC you throw acid at me how rude yeah I'm not gonna use I'm just gonna keep trying to stab this guy yeah that's fine all right non-lethal damage is reserved for people who are smarter than these people leather armor mace I mean they'll sell for a few bucks I suppose we have your gold salami bottle pork sausage shaft of a broken spear I mean it's worth 15 I guess is a thing and andrick has got chainmail and a long sword I mean we'll grab it because we can yeah I guess I want to speak to dead I gotta shift out I I'm expecting it's not going to be useful again but we'll see let's speak with Edwin who died recast speak with dead speak with a different course that expanding a spell slot but an all-day thing until long rest okay it's cool do you have something to say for a change the corpse regards you lifelessly now this is interesting because I'm wondering if we're gonna speak to the body without the influence of the worm anymore because the bike well what's the point they're just gonna be like drinking the absolute Kool-Aid but this guy might not be affected by that anymore because maybe his worm diet along with him unless I accidentally cast speak with dead on the Worm but let's assume we're talking just the body now I don't really if we've only got five questions I don't know if it's worth asking Who You Are um what we're doing here might be redundant with things the anything valuable around here is kind of interesting so we're gonna do this are they the valuables okay fair enough what were you doing here oh wow oh you're not gonna say you were hunting for fugitives [Music] that's much more useful than I expected what do you know about this weapon crash from the sky taken at first I thought the nautiloid [ __ ] yeah but if it was taken by infidels what is the weapon all right what can you tell me about the absolute [ __ ] power and uh what's two plus two who are you [Music] oh oh chosen the Spells power went out that would have been an interesting thread to pull questions we hadn't wasted the where what valuables are around here friendship is the only true about no help the empty empty we got some mugwort over here which we're gonna grab my past morsel I'm gonna pick all the shrooms we got a bridge over here beautiful thing like there's anything there oh ouch inside the corpse also alone did I miss a eludible corpse oh a shield hey perfect a hero with heart there you go it looks stupid but you're gonna wear a shield because you're a human you can breathing despite everything otherwise you've been down there with haste I'm gonna pick up one of the Corpses no I looted all those all right there's a weird glow on Brenner for some reason but just a weird cosmetic thing like well means you can speak with that wait really what so if I try to speak with that this one is it going to do nothing because he's not glowy the corpse has nothing to say oh [ __ ] oh the corpse seems willing to speak but not to its killer did I get the killing blow on you even I'm not even sure that's the case no Brenna was killed by um by asterian wasn't it yeah I mean we're I guess we're all responsible for the death but that is interesting so okay slightly growing corpse presumably if we have the the spell sort of on right if we cast it at all during the day yeah so we have the recast speak with that presumably while this is on we'll see a glow um we get some fun flavor text here with a Starion and the running water you can remember something like that did he take damage from this in the early early access did he take a couple points of damage from crossing the running water strongly feel that was the case this Nest must be nearby oh there's the cracks yeah well the big giant hole yes [Music] is this yeah let's go up here for a sec I don't think I've ever seen this area before destitute clothing oh we can put it on people see what it looks like can I use the fishing rod no I can't equip the fishing rod thin crack runs the length of this Elm rod Oh I thought there was gonna be a fishing in the game ah there's a dog hang on very important another go and reset these two um spell slots after I was making some changes okay speak with animal friendship speak with animal go oh there's a dead person over there what if that was there their friend if the dog is a fur baby does that make it their skin parent something's on my mind Hey scratch come here oh did they living stranger quietly what happened here I told you to go no but perception appear at his collar April probably have his name on it intimidation no Druid plus persuasion calm friend I mean you no harm I understand your fear but I promise I mean you no harm he's too different how are three and four different from each other I'm gonna go with four well I'm gonna invent Advent Advantage because I'm a druid it is a 15. I mean we're definitely going to throw on throwing the guidance and I guess that's that's it so certainly no guarantee okay no it'll be fine now because even with just a one from the guidance it's gonna be enough tight barely succeeded but we got there um there's death in your scent I mean yeah but not in your words still you should go my friend is injured he needs rest ah you do have a really cool collar um listen I'm sorry I don't think he's going to wake up he will pay attention there's a new subscriber yeah Aquatics thanks for the sub of course he will and then we'll return home oh man what's your name he calls me scratch you can do the same I do really like that name for a dog so what happened to your friend we were attacked we're cackling furry things on two legs it was strange rotten evil you know the creatures he describes oh no we hadn't encountered in all so I wasn't expecting it but cool nature check with a minus one I think um come on you can travel with me if you like no I won't leave him I really don't want to just shout at him so if he doesn't wake up follow my scent I have a camp I like that if it comes to that I may thank you we have a ball at the camp and everything um I hope you don't mind this might get weird scratch but we're gonna try to speak with dead here this is gonna make it a lot harder convince the dog that this guy is dead but we need to know we need answers to you lifelessly all right I'm gonna go with who are you in this case we actually do care because maybe he's got you know family something should know I mean why were you in a forest what happened to you these are good questions but I do want to start with who are you in this case all right why were you in the forest delivery do build this gate I mean wouldn't that be on him what happened to you I mean we kind of know where he's been that he's been attacked but if he if they're not on him for some reason I should have looted him first unless the knoll's too good I wonder if it was a hit job as opposed to just a random ambush all right what happened to you know it's gross teeth uh he's clearly some sort of Courier and we don't know that he's from Baldur's Gate personally I say this again because you know here we might just want to know about family um ah I don't know where Trio is the Spells pow waves you can ask no more questions I'm gonna loot you now hey you do have some notes on you leather boots gomwick oh okay this is to him B on your way back to Baldur's Gate I received more reports of attacks on Travelers throughout the region I can't have my best messenger wind up face down in a ditch somewhere watch yourself better late than never Postmaster General denzo David it's a boy he's healthy and perfect I've named him after his father come back and see us as soon as you get leave love flora and David Jr have we met at David hmm nine fingers I won't come back to the city not while you have your thugs looking for me if you want the debt paid you'll have to trust me and collect it yourself go to the graveyard and look where an M Kerwin is buried get digging you'll find enough alabus to settle matters between us don't go looking for me I'll know when I'm safe s okay oh we know where there's some treasure um what is this big yellow glowing area oh just the radius hunt down Carlock interesting but first um where's that cave I had myself turned all around here oh yeah okay so we did that we did that we did that okay okay and then we got distracted by seeing these guys um let's backtrack a little here we're south this way there we go yeah investigate the swamp tree Night song goblins a little bit spoiler to have the locations of things well we have to speak with animals and and friendship available to us I'm not sure that's going to help us with the owl bear but let's find out mods remove the quest markers dead that Albert pray No Doubt more heavy Stone [Music] it's probably good as a makeshift weapon you know if you don't have any potatoes to throw at people how delicious the radio or not step kids so we can you know jump down here and do this but we'll take the walk around I remember some stuff with this vaguely I've wished to live in more interesting times moving ahead how can we used to plug vents okay oh there we go distressed is there anyway to do this peacefully because it would feel great if I could but it was never something I remember seeing in the uh or doing correctly in the EA but you know if anything's gonna work it's gonna be the fact that we have to speak with it probably we're gonna be fighting an owl bear in a second but let's see what happens I'm just gonna try talking to it I mean I I don't know if that'll work but let's see what happens we got a quick save probably this is gonna be terrible yeah Mama Albert with a little cub and or an egg the Quake of its heavy footsteps before we see it an owl bear it's beaked face looming oh yeah I was thinking of animal friendship like because you can activate it in a conversation maybe it should have been a Precast something weak oh there we go there we go won't even have to chew you before I feed you to my son soft meat great voice you're injured there's still half a spear lodged in your head sorry wrong cave I'll be going move closer if your last meal Beast you and your couple like no we're gonna listen it's I've read the uh is it the line on the mouse I can take that spear out it's a splinter well I've got a bigger threat listens centers are serious business intimidation persuasionally leave no Druid persuasion you need rest let nature heal you this is no time for a fight add bonus animal friendship um which will give us Advantage we don't need Eagle Splendor plus this would drop I I know I don't I guess she's not maintaining the uh owl's wisdom we'll throw the guidance in there oh it's only dc5 seriously hang on who needs to spend uh a spell slot on an animal friendship dc5 we literally can't lose because even on a one on a skill check it's not an auto fail unless baller's gate isn't following actual d d rules but one is an auto missing combat but not for skill checks is that what they did in bg3 that one is an autofill but it's not supposed to okay I mean people are saying the thing is people play d d as if a one is a failure for skill checks but it's not that's a it's a common misconception um but maybe they did it that way in bothers gate three okay all right so there we go fight you'd be a play thing not worth the trouble you can go but you make one wrong step and I'll rip you to shreds yeah but I was gonna help you with the spear also I really want the pet owl bear cub um what happens if I get closer climb up and around that seems useful nope there's a whole elevated area over here I'm not convinced that it leads anywhere well at least we could like jump down on the other side and maybe not get aggroed it doesn't Auto jump across it oh I mean come on I gave you personal space come on I mean we're kind of getting stealth but I mean come on but we do have The High Ground I'm just gonna fight a fight we are close to the cub and that's fair ish I suppose it does look I'm sorry that's interesting there's a stalactite over here we could attack and we use that to drop onto things in some scenarios that is very fascinating huh can't give up not now chances 75 is not bad because we could also do some invoke duplicity here which I kind of like is a full action but it's a channeled Divinity it's not a spell slot or anything we'll generate some Advantage for us let's use it we haven't really been using it very much um I'm not gonna Shield the faith right now I'm not sure I'm gonna do anything else with Shadow heart rate at the moment but as a result of advantage no and likewise I kind of want to go down there I wonder if we could prevent the owl bear let me just flood this area here unless it might be able to just do a big jump to here and I bet you it can but I wonder if we can block it from being able to physically climb up another fight let's go [Music] yeah doing a non-lethal is not a bad idea maybe we can use that to finish it off um we might end up selling sending Dell down here to provide some tankage or even the Cubs aggro again I think I think the Cub breaks off of fighting if you do kill the mama bear but again I'd rather not do any of that on my way for now just come over here what should I do I'm not going to Shield the faith quite yet yeah we'll talk about non-lethal I mean I guess we could do it now we don't have to do it until like the last uh last possible second and I think it does toggle it party wide now not all types of attacks do non-lethal damage right you can't non-lethal um Eldritch Blast for example although I guess I could have done the decks if we wanted the flamey things and they invoked implicity can move around that's interesting I know just stay here I don't actually have to select the sneak attack we have it on automatic here oh still breathing despite everything oh it doesn't affect saving throws okay just a post checks post rolls uh doing bow stuff with Dell isn't his strongest but so far it's working out being up here well then I say that we miss obviously Fireball sixty percent chance sacred flame 55 we already have Advantage but I'm gonna go ahead and unload a guiding hole [Music] what did you do there's possible in bg3 but trickery Clarkson eventually casts spells okay wow so that that took some attacks which is good yeah we're very much in a go to sleep go to sleep go to sleep go to sleep so in in uh pen and paper you can only do non-lethal attacks with melee attacks I don't know doesn't specify anything like that here so hopefully what we're all doing is non-lethal damage even with attacks that don't make sense I have no idea that was a terrible terrible amount of damage you should feel shame important is ever easy let's finish this Mouse over the actual ability so like over here for the passive oh it must be armed or using melee weapons there we go okay so we are having to make sure to finish you in melee combat which is a dangerous proposition but we're going to give it a go since they're getting a little lower here your strike primed I'm gonna move her and leave some room here all right yeah just get down there and melee okay it's asleep what path lies before me and lootable oh see there you go we knocked it out so we can take the spear out I feel like I want to heal it but I think it would wake up if we did so let's leave it alone for a minute maybe I leave more pockets I think the owl bear egg though I mean these are supposed to be worth a fortune ah the oak fathers Embrace order of nature Undead creatures they hit the wearer receive radiant damage be safe to wear a deal addition additional wait I'm sorry so we take more damage from Beasts but reduce damage from Undead where'd the Cub go back already hatched no point in taking these where did the Cub go looks like a shrine to saluner over there keeping this chest sealed I can feel its aura that was like yielded contents easily pretty sure that was gonna happen but you have to poke it for science they have a vague memory that you go you go you go you jump back there or something like that but let's go ahead and read this book an ancient home detailing how Saloon came into being along with her sister Char the silver radiant solune and the dark alluring Char complemented each other and brought an orderly distinction between light and the Dark Universe yeah I wonder if that happens every time that's the true science thing oh it's purple stuff something over there there we go the prayer sheet first let me read the Genesis here the dusty volume that speaks of the conflict between the sibling goddesses Saloon and Char after salooni ignited the Sun and brought life-sustaining light and warmth into the universe a prayer dedicated to salinity imploring all to accept the moon maiden's blessings and sharing her Bounty just an old prayer [Music] certainly what oh is that is that your hex over your head well Matt I mean we've met before but that must just be that he has his hex sitting idle so now that I've seen the prayer I'll accept Moonlight yeah it doesn't actually give you the instructions for How We Do It we got a candle we've got incense and a chalice could you have to offer up a prayer and he had no Shadow Hearts cranky about it I think she'll disapprove but how do we use the ritual now he sucked at religion so maybe that didn't help I'm ready whatever it takes you read it nothing but Saloon night prayer how useful okay I guess we need something to succeed at a religion check no there we go [Music] so he succeeded oh wait no he failed but we got completed her gifts of silver inspiration so no one succeeded yet asterian can you do it a prayer to Dear Old saluna oh the chest isn't glowing anymore oh so we did do it but everyone failed nice time to see what's inside did shadowheart do another check and not fail that hurt doesn't fail probably just High DC it says shadowheart failed a religion chick but I guess maybe because she recognized it it ended up succeeding anyway you should leave it or even destroy it if possible does that seem weird it definitely said I mean it's right there in a log she failed her check but at some point it all right unbuggered the chest weird I think it might be a bug just like we had the weird um unable to crawl through that hole like even in a tiny form kind of thing which feels like a bug um yeah don't be ridiculous there could be something useful here she's not gonna be happy you know hold on but why rubbish is an offering to saluna at best it's worthless worst who knows first trifle with that Moon witch or her trinkets only trouble will follow why do you care so much I'll do this like please answer the main resource we won't need be sensible I'm gonna say why do you care so much foreign no no we tried it with something small it was just glitched it wasn't giving the proper error message or anything like that that's just not even that small but we tried it as a cat you should have stayed quiet you want the truth fine I worship Shaw Mistress of the night Saloon is Twin and foe will we find that out now I thought we found that out early in please don't make any fuss about it Heaven's forbid maybe not we're all entitled to our secrets maybe we only knew because we could look at our character sheet I'll decide whether they make a fuss or not hard to trust someone who's holding out on me you could have told me how long were you going to keep the secret I didn't agree to grow up with the star worshiper don't care what you worship me a bigger problems I mean that is true but I think I'm gonna finish two here you could have told me how long were you in to keep this Secret forever ideally Canon cannot tell secrecy is everything for Shell's children it is our code our Creed our Shield I even keep secrets from myself I had my memories suppressed so that wait what I know could be used against the dark lady what once I prove myself my memories will be restored I'm not sorry I kept this from you not one bit perhaps that might change if you can show an open mind I was gonna say is that what's locked inside your D20 your memories or is the reason you can't open it is because you don't have the you don't remember how to um you know let's see how open-minded I can be then tell me more talk to me later we've got more pressing matters to see to right now um I can't disagree with that that is true I don't have another short rest available let's get going what's next I guess the thing to do right now is to drop out healing word uh pick up cure wounds I mean we should probably do a camp break here I guess you don't need more healing and then yeah we'll just uh drop the kerwoons put a healing word for combat can't give up now Moon drop pennant riding dance when the wearer has 50 hit points or less they don't provoke opportunity attacks well that is quite cool and idle is Saloon a bloodstone so oh Bloodstone um will can replace his eye and a saloonite right Homan describes the ancient initiation rights observed by some who worship the moon goddess Saloon when a youngster came of age that would be left to fend for themselves deep in the Wilds there that would show their skills of navigation and self-reliance as well as their determination to return to the Moon made in silver and glow once they find their way back to their people their faith in standing as a follower of Salini would be Beyond any doubt it seems a little harsh but coming of age-wise barbaric nonsense I'm sorry take all is leading to a sleight of hand check that was unexpected I'll make sure she doesn't see I wasn't actually intending to deceive her the whole thing is you know I want the openness she can tell me what you know what she believes in but we're also gonna do that is it really just that shirt she doesn't get pissed off it probably saves us from getting a disapproved message or something like that so we're going to live omission yeah it'll wake up at some point and you know it's been bruised a little but it doesn't have a spear sticking out anymore we could have avoided the whole fight in the first place but then we wouldn't have been able to loot that body really [Music] so we could go back up that way that is the karlak thing which I'm kind of curious about foreign there's an area over here we never visited [Music] hmm I think we might end up doing is we might end up we're gonna have to take a break soon we've gone three hours it's just longer than my normal uh Monday stream I think it's probably time to wrap it up it was an animal purpose here oh with nothing in it what a tease the thing with the car lock thing hold on let's think about our characters and what we do here right we still think we've got this warm in our head that's got to be type priority so either we're going for the crash or what we're doing is we're trying to go for the goblin Camp here uh to either see if we can get help from the goblin Priestess or at least rescue the Druid housing will or Dolores here is the leader of the party he is a druid I think his biggest interest is to head towards halsom so I think we're gonna do that first oh the spearhead because we did have the uh I think we've got another part of a broken spear somewhere we have a shaft of broken spear and we have a head of a broken spear which oh has an eyeball on it combine hold on let's examine a gawking yellow eye is pierced on this broken Spearhead um vision of the absolute so it's a spear with no pluses innately absolute night blind targets the failure dexterity saving throw deals an additional 2 to 12 so an extra 2d6 piercing damage to certain creatures that sport multiple sets of eyes okay oh I guess it's already in my look right over here okay so when we do run into the absolute are they gonna only have one eye and the rest of it is on the spear the tip of the spear strikes unerringly towards his Target's eyes wonder if the eye was it impaled in the um owl Bear's eyes I don't remember where it was actually in pit stuck into it yeah it's gonna be good for killing spiders beholders hmm interesting why is the vision of the absolute doing more damage than the Watcher's guide now okay in the mouse over here it's showing the damage if you were Wheeling it two-handed which is interesting it's not taking into account that you're using a shield because the the spears are versatile so they can be one-handed or two-handed so in this tool tip it's showing as if you're doing 1d8 damage but then once it's equipped it's doing the 1v6 damage which is fair um games giving us a lot of interesting Spears I like the Watcher's guide a lot as the true strike on the next turn seems really handy the game treats unconscious NPCs is dead if you long rest killing Alberta mother if you want to avoid that you go back and heal her what these things are very interesting that all right that seems let's drop a heel and then run hopefully it won't start combat we can heal at a range because of healing word uh it's there yeah I think the approach is just going to be over here and then see if we can break combat afterwards dueling releasing Spears does sound interesting we can actually do it a little further away let's get that patched up Hills well they have hit points we did our best yeah I still can't I know it had one HP like it wasn't zero I I realized that it was it was sitting it there but hopefully that all works out for the best long rest in the cave uh that seems like a terrible idea I think we will be planning a long rest out a coffin and a spoon a mug what does coffin come from maybe from that cart or they just flow down from somewhere far away the water's slowing down that way I can't move the camera in this direction any further than this there's about this coffin at some point because that's strange well as I say this might be a nice place to Camp right next to the river not a little less sure about the coffin it's also quite close to the owl bear place still but we might be that for staring to sleep in probably not inside the river yeah I think what we're gonna do is gonna wrap up the stream here we're gonna rate a kiss for that stream Where in theory they are playing some Baldur's Gate over there um next scheduled live stream is on Wednesday where we will likely be playing some more baldos gate it's entirely possible I might be like I want to play it tomorrow as well so stay tuned to see if there's anything else going on oh I forgot about the freaking uh um I've got my nurse appointment I really do have to wrap this up folks thanks a lot for watching I'll see you I'll see you on Wednesday bye-bye
