  • We're going to re-introduce Auntie to her old friend. This is my first time soloing this encounter, hence, it is kind of sloppy, so keep that in mind please! Enjoy!
    We're level 12!

    For anyone afraid of this fight and also want to save Vanra. I have this lottle trick. It's called Barrelmancy. Just stack 6-8 smokepowder or firewine barrels next to the mushroom prior to fighting, blow them up, and throw the hag's bane at Ethel dueing the first round. The real one has a different level than the rest.

    Silence is really underestimated. It makes the Harpy fight so much easier and the hag fight, too. Jumping to make Auntie prone is so silly - but clever. 😂

    I'm glad your game didn't crash, or lock, with that initiative bug. 😳
    You went about this a smart way, taking out the mushrooms and then using the susur greatsword. :)
    I got into this fight by accident. I was just going to look around and leave, but then I wanted to see if I could destroy the mushrooms just to be a jerk, and then combat started on me.

    Sussur GS is so beautiful. With just a little itemization and building around it, it can be an A tier pick.
    Poison, bleed and eldritch strike, infectious bite, bestow curse can all impose disadvantage on the save. Gloves of baneful striking for an additional -1d4. Pair that with sentinel and mage slayer on basically any martial and you have a build with quite a few other free slots to customize that can also zone, silence and trap any caster as well as soften save defense for any other characters you might have. Especially cool if you’re like me and always trying to make goofy off-meta setups work. Works best on eldritch knights that get 11 levels for eldritch strike.
    11/10 vid, +1 for styling on Ethel with the sussur gs.

      Thank you, happy that you enjoyed it! ☺Oh yea, I love that sword! That's a cool breakdown, I don't enjoy the meta stuff very much so that's spot on! Been tempted to check in on EK so I'll keep that in mind, thanks!

      @@FriendlyLich EK is amazing and maybe the most flexible class in the game. Really fun with high int and shalleilagh from magic initiate. Feats and itemization can turn it into a radically different build from one fight to the next. Also one of the best for multiclassing, breaking at 5/6/7/11 levels and then swapping to a full caster class.
      I haven’t tested this but I imagine you could use potions for level 4 spell slots with a one level wizard dip, or just use scrolls.
      Anyway, thanks again for the vid. Cheers.

      When you arrive in Act 3, just go right to the office of the fist. There you will see a mother complaining about her daughter missing. Talk to the mother and the quest starts. It overlaps with the "Avenge the hag victims" (or something like that) quest. But talk to the mother first and you'll have both quests going on. The Blushing Mermaid is the tavern you want to visit. The Captain Grimm is already the hag in disguise. Her lair is reachable after beating the redcaps, just go through one of the cellar doors. You will find some victims with masks on and can try to knock them out or kill them. After that you'll find that room you just saw in the video. Hope that helped.
