And so the brave Domhnall wakes up, his situation dire and serious.
Followed by a young cleric, that seems quite mysterious.
Cross the eldrich wreckedge! Give the enemy pain and woe!
"Now I have a flaming blade. ho-ho-ho".
You know you’re going to be required to do one of these for every episode, now that you’ve created an expectation, right?

Im not good at english but your pronunciation is really clear and relaxing. And i also love your meticulous playstyle. Feel so nice to meet this channel. Thank you
I wouldn’t had been able to tell English wasn’t your first language. Thank you for the kind words, I hope you continue to enjoy the channel.
Ha! I liked the little swimming exercise 🙂 . . . it does wash off the dirt and blood off your face however!
We were precariously balancing at the age of the chasm. It’s probably best to wash off all the brain juice from the Nautiloid.
This game has my name written all over it, but until i get a console to play it i will make do with your playthough! Great work mate!
"I can't go up the ridge" at 18:12 . . . well actually you can go up there just fine.😉 Your characters were very far away from where they would need to jump so the pathing was getting confused. But if you start at the base of the ridge you can go up just fine. There is quite a bit of verticality throughout the game so its good to get used to what you can do. Some of the multilevel stuff can get kind of crazy.
A tip if the camera gets lost . . . double click on your main portrait to recenter the camera. Also using the O key for overhead top-down view can be really helpful in some situations.
Oh, well I saw another path, so I didn't commit fully to trying to go up the ridge. I haven't forgotten about it though.
I'm familiar with the portrait mechanic from other CRPGs, and have been using it. I did forget about the overhead, tactical view. I'll have to keep that in mind.
Well, yes... Deception is such a thing, especially for Oath of Devotion Paladins. Avoid it myself and only use it when lives are at stake. Sometimes this game is really mean, and I am glad that I won't have to worry about oaths. Same with Intimidation, stealing and prying.
It's always interesting to see how others handle things. What they find out that I overlooked and maybe the other way around.
Especially when they are oldies who know all that old game stuff. Can't wait to see how you'll react to certain books... certain NPCs.... guess you know what I mean.
21:13 You gave shadowheart that rapier I don't know if you notice that she isn't proficient with it.
Oh yeah, I keep meaning to swap back to the mace, but keep forgetting. Hopefully, I remember before the next combat.
Hey Don, does perception helps to highlight objects?
Hidden items and stuff like that, yes. Doesn’t help highlight things like barrels, unfortunately.
Look at that handosome landsknecht go
Btw I assume you fixed it in the future but Shadowfax? shadow the Edgehog? isn't proficient with rapiers so goes from +3 to +1 to hit
He is a good-looking guy, isn’t he? Takes after me. Yeah, I associate Trickery Domain with rapiers, and assumed Shadow over Hersmouth was proficient without checking. (Your shadow puns were better.)
With the previous installment you could highlight everything. BG3 is a graphically enhanced game so they should have included that, not the item highlighting one, a full scale highlighting option. Since this is a massive increment in graphics it's easy to miss an object, you can't hover over everything you know. Hopefully it will be included in an update, hopefully.
Also where is US? Is that not a companion or just a temporary one?
That’s my concern, with how detailed everything is. Maybe once I get used to it, all the detail won’t prevent me from spotting things in the environment. I’ll be taking it very slow, at least until I get used to deciphering the detail.
This is a very slight spoiler, one I consider of little to no consequence, though it you want to avoid ALL spoilers, no matter how small, this is your warning.
Us is a follower, basically a temporary companion. As far as I am aware, you encounter quite a few across your travels. Based on what I know about Early Access, Us does not appear again, and is presumed to have died in the crash. However I am not certain about this, and it is a possibility that they show up later in the story, though I doubt it.
@@tigereyeinc.718 I wouldn’t consider that a spoiler, since we have evidence of it by this point. I hope our little buddy shows up again, but if not then their sacrifice has been avenged.
Paladins don't steal?
Dude! We've seen your other Let's Plays. Paladins surely do steal. 😂
In my defense, those other games didn’t have an oathbreaking mechanic.
@@BringItDonHa fair enough that doesn't mean that Shadowheart or a new companion won't do it though.
(Also you could possibly get into those ruins using the thieves tools and guidance trick you used on the wooden crate in the episode.)
@@danielheadhunter9594 True, and I’ve already considered that for future shenanigans.
Yeah, but I also don’t want to risk breaking my thieves’ tools, especially when we have an alternative path that may take me to the same spot.
@@BringItDonfair enough I can't remember where the other entrance is since I haven't watched it since early access
@@danielheadhunter9594 Even if there wasn’t another one, I could always return to the door. I may still lockpick after clearing everything out, just because.
Never though about the possibility of the Everburn Blade being cursed, and yeah, I don't think that there's any cursed items in the game.
I think it would’ve been hilarious had Larian made it cursed, considering how difficult it seems to get. Not having cursed items is a missed opportunity, they’re always fun to stumble on.
@@BringItDon Yeah, I'm very glad that it's not cursed, was so hard for me to get ahold of, and it 1-2 shots almost everything I've fought so far.
It's a big part of why I went with great weapon fighting too!
@@Fallout2Forever I was split between great weapons and sword and board, but once I saw mauls listed in the weapon list my fate was sealed. You can’t beat a two-handed hammer for a Paladin.
@@BringItDon Nice!
Also, I never thought about using shove for a bonus action. I guess it's a pretty good idea actually.
@@Fallout2Forever Using Shove right now doesn’t do a whole lot, but it’s good to practice using up bonus actions each turn so I don’t forget about them.
@BringItDon Since you are so thorough (witch appreciate), have you considered one hour uploads?
If not I fear I have a 335 part playthrough to schedule...
I haven’t considered it, but I’m sure more than a few will naturally break an hour. I fully expect this to be one of the longer series on the channel.
There are no Cursed items in this game as far as I remember. Also no need to identify anything.
I’m kind of disappointed. Cursed items are always a fun surprise.
I'm late to this lets play, and so I doubt you'll see this comment, but I can't wait to see how that sword treats you when you said you enjoy your two handed mauls. Myself and my best friend are in early act two, and that still is the best raw damage two handed weapon option so far, and its not super close. That sword is bonkers. We rotate our party between Lae'zal and Karlach (I'm a paladin, he's our rogue, shadowheart is perma party for heals and primary spell caster) with a sprinkle of gale here and there when its useful. Karlach is still using that sword, its the best two handed weapon we have. I use two handers as well (using a particular glaive you can get later) and Laezal is using a different two handed sword that's the next closest weapon for raw statistical power. Haven't seen a single maul worth using all game xD
It's such a good sword! I think I only swapped it at the end of act 1 (beggining of act 2?) for one of the gith swords, which was better. But that sword really carried us through all of act one hahaha.
