You forgot about "Firewine Barrel with Kobold"! I had one of them help me with the fight on the brain and he kept 3 tentacles busy and then tanked an entire magic missile volley. And all that after getting the great surface!
I never thought to do that! You need every advantage in honor mode.
I never thought to do that! You need every advantage in honor mode.
Hold on… are you implying that you can take the barrels, store them, and then use them later to pop the kobold out?
This is hilarious, thank you. I’ll sacrifice a little xp to find something stupid to do with these.
That poor poor kobold! I guess they adapted to breath and metabolize alcohol for the month it spent between act 1 and act 3 climax?
You're right! Alright time to start over, everyone strap in for another hour-long barrel video
Just to nerd out a little bit, it’s part of Forgotten Realms lore that Elminster has traveled to our world so he could have brought the name of Teddy Bear back with him.
Of course he did. That bastard.
“Just like your fan fictions” 😭
A staple in every single one of my runs is grabbing every oil barrel and smoke powder barrel I can find, and to never use them because I might need them next time.
Send them to camp and then every time I check my chest at camp I go “I really should use these for something” and then leave them in there rotting
Same. The rubble part in Grymforge when your character is like "I already have some explosives", that's when I remembered I had them lol
Mate, I prepared two bags full of them to face the absolute, left one with Laezel and one with Tav. Each had like 8 barrels + runepowder stuff I had gotten + satchels.
I got in the portal, had Gale and Shart cast a few spells and Tav came in and hit it with 4 Divine Smite. Lae'zel didn't even steo in through the portal
I save them for raphael so i can consistently crash my game !
Pro tip for deploying multiple explosives (including barrels) in clusters without immediately setting them off:
Put them in backpacks, crates, or other destructible containers that can be thrown.
If the container breaks after being thrown to your target, great! You can just use a Firebolt or something to set off the explosives.
If the backpack or container doesn't break and you want to set it off in a single action then you need a Chromatic Orb: Fire, or maybe a Fire Arrow targeted at the container. The container should break and the Fire surface will ignite the payload
Agreed. This is the best way to guarantee kills on certain fights, esp in honor mode. Stuff a backpack with fireworks or grenades, throw backpack towards enemy, grenades spill everywhere and you can detonate. You can easily kill final boss in 1 turn with a backpack filled with fireworks and smokepowder grenades.
Tadpole powers tier list?
Background tier list?
Cull the weak S+.
I'd love to know about the backgrounds, especially as to non-combat interactions
Blackhole, cull the weak, luck of the far realms, freecast, mind sanctuary, fly are all S tier
@@vincent4805 all game breaking. But wonderful
Haunted One is best background because of Durge. Oodles of Inspirations and also The Deathstalker Mantle.
All others are ok. Guild Artisan gets good skills but relatively few Inspirations.
The Barrelmancierge: a very formal Githyanki Monk/Thief Rogue/Sorcerer Butler specced into strength and mobility, with extra attack, extra bonus action, extra movement speed, and quickened/extended spell, whose only job is to kindly deliver barrels and other such consumables to the enemies around the field during combat (either by dropping or throwing as appropriate), of course giving polite greetings as he makes his rounds, and then generously activating the barrels with his sorcery fire/ice/electicity cantrips, compliments of the house...
Damn I've always been too scared to try using the runepowder barrels/bombs. But with the globe of invulnerability it'd be the perfect way to cheese the Raphael fight
Small correction: for those of us who do like to spend hours hoarding these things just to blow up a room without having to fight it; you're right that it's tedious, but you're wrong that it's not fun. 😬
I have to agree. I do love a good explosion and the subsequent chaos.
Ahhh memories, my first playthrough in the zhentarim hideout there was a guy near the back of the cave on the low ground far away and my party was melee specced. He kept coming around the corner, shooting and ducking again while i fought his friends so karlach threw an alchemist fire at the corner then laezel threw her firewine barrel at the surface blowing him up from around a corner where he barbequed. Even though it was basic i felt so cool, that's why i love this game
This is the most important tier list this channel has or will ever cover.
Leave no barrel behind! You're the best!
I'll forever be fond of the memory of finishing off a certain dragon fight with a last ditch toss of a firework
Haha, nice!
Cannot believe we didn’t use wulbren or barcus for the thumbnail smh 😔
I used the game's largest explosive barrel ;)
Another way to set off the big boomies from a safe distance; use oil from a cup or barrel as a "gunpowder trail".
Been loving this series. +1 on Illithid Powers tier list!
Yessss dude 👏 was hoping youd do these!!
So glad you keep doing these. I hope you continue with all items! Thank you 🙏
I have yet to resort to barrelmancy in my Honor Mode run attempts, but I'm six failed runs in, and this video is making is VERY tempting. I salute your hard work, Mr. Cephalopocalypse.
Awesome that you listened to the comments asking for a barrel list! Love your vids
Strange. I vividly remember using the teddy bear like a grenade and it exploding after a bit on it's own. It would say stuff like "Hug me" and then go boom.
Companions tier list up next 😌😂 Baezel s+ tier!!!
Wow, you actually went through all of them. These videos are fun, and actually helping me in my honor mode run
There is 1(maybe 2 can't remember) brine barrel that I know of in the entire game, near the captured minthara in act 2 mindflayer colony
That makes sense! Given they don't show up in act 1 then they're probably not even worth the c tier rating
@41:16 So, you can probably blame Eleminster. He canonically traveled to our world and had many conversations with Gary Gygax. So, he probably brought the Teddy Bear to Faerun.
I love your content! Always hypes me up for more runs. Another tier list idea: best legandary items (Gear), it would be super interesting to know which ones are worth going for in honor mode, cheers!
To station barrels without minmaxing, boots of speed (BA dash) + disengage action, also any rogue 2 can do this anyway, monk for a ki point, etc.
Fun usage is on cleric 5 or lore bard 6 - run in with spirit guardians, place a barrel, get out, and an arrow of fire finishes the job. To solo add potion of speed.
a brine barrel can be found in the mindflayer colony at moonrise. and the tadpole barrel is missing.
That makes sense! Given they don't show up in act 1 then they're probably not even worth the c tier rating
The answer is to shove them together and throw them in a backpack like a medieval satchel charge.
When you throw the 🧸 it has some lines then goes Boom! It's more like a grenade than a barrel. You only need the one action to throw it.
Once again I learned so much from this! i wish there wad s spreadsheet for all the throwable s and arrows .. I may have to make my own.
Brine Barrels are below Moonrise after first fight with Ketheric in the same room the "asset" is being trapped that Mizora tells you to get. Walk to the right of the brine pool.
Tier list go BOOM! 💣
The brine barrel as far as i know is only found at the very end of act 2. *spoilers* in the mindflayer colony
That makes sense! Given they don't show up in act 1 then they're probably not even worth the c tier rating
Time for an hour long illithid power list
Strap in bois
Ah yes, the sword coast trust buster. Theodore "Big Stick" Roosevelt. Said to have quite a soft side with kids.
Crate tier list next!
tier list for every weapon of each weapon class
Need an illithid powers tier list next!
"The fact that this is called a Teddy Bear seems to imply that not only did Teddy Roosevelt exist [...]"
The way I see it: the people of the Sword Coast do not speak English, they speak Common. Whatever name they have for Teddy Bear is just "translated" to English for our sake, much like when we watch Anakin Skywalker, Ash Ketchum, or Hercules speak "English" when they are actually speaking presumably Galactic Basic, Kantonian???, or Ancient Greek (in the movie Hercules).
With that being said apparently Earth exists in-lore so who knows if Common and English are actually mutually intelligible
(Yes I know it was a joke)
That brings up the classic Star Wars question though: how does Han Solo know what a falcon is? Is it translated from a Galactic Basic name for a bird of prey? Do they have birds on Corellia at all?
@@Cephalopocalypse
I love niche in-universe questions like these!
Falcon could be a stand-in for something even more generic like "aerial carnivore", but "falcon" sounds sharp in English and most in-universe linguistics are retroactively reconciled. I mean, until a character in-universe acknowledges the ship's reference to beaked birds, the ship "1,000-year flying creatures" could instead translate super vaguely: "Timeless Speedster" or something.
For me, the "X" in X-wing was the source of my confusion since their primary language doesn't have a letter that really looks like an X. But it might not refer to a letter-maybe it directly translates to "Cross-Fin" or "Four-Feathers" instead of "[Aurek]-Wing" or something. The "Falcon" in Millenium Falcon by contrast didn't come across as strange to me at all since they probably have countless examples of near-avian dangerous predators to make that word necessary somewhere on a galactic scale. A planet with *no* animals could still actively use words that distinguish between butterflies and moths if those were common names for their spaceships.
TL;DR:
There are probably countless falcon-like niches somewhere in the galaxy and the language used is shared on a galactic scale
Thanks for being cool and nerdy and thanks for the useful videos :3
Dumb question, but if the barbarian character throws the (acid) barrel on an enemy to break it, doesn't that action get spent to also damage? Sorry, really new to bg3
*Theodore Roosevelt confirmed as DND canon* (was a level 2 Bard)
I became a Barrelmancy Acolyte since i got wiped dozens of times by the spectator in Underdark
I only use the barrel cheese in specific battles. I use it in the goblin camp courtyard, dror ragzlin’s room, mystic carrion’s stupid spell rot tomb, and rune powder barrels to knock down the nether brain in health. I think I might use them in a few other situations but I can’t think of them right now.
The raphael fight is a potential candidate, blowing those 4 pillars turn 1 feels good !
We have Karlach breaking the 4th Wall. So why is it so surprising they have teddy bears?
here is my suggestion for your next tier list: single class tier list. How good is a lev12 bard vs a lev12 fighter etc. you probably will account for intermediate levels as well in your judgement
Did you ever play dos2? Ice surfaces were just as funny in that game
Ice surfaces are a larian special
I've actually only played 1 and not 2! I keep meaning to, but my partner and I want to coop it and making time is tough.
I did play all of Larian's earlier games though, including the RTS they made which I think you can even find a terrible video of me doing in like 2012 on the channel (not actually recommended watching, I imagine videos that old do not hold up :P)
You should have checked damage for thown barrels on hit because this should still do damage due to heavy item weight
Theres some brine barrels before the elder brain in the sewers and in the emperors room
Can you combine surfaces like caustic brine or acid and plant growth without one canceling the other out?
Bonus!
Omg it’s happening
The only time I really used barrelmancy was in the *SPOILERS*...
.
.
Raphael fight. 8 smokepowder barrels are enough to break all 4 pillars (and a few cambions) in Honour mode and as long as you haven't stolen anything super important you can go in and out of the portal as much as you like if you need to take multiple trips to carry them.
I feel like that was a plausible-enough thing to do, not sneaking around while time is frozen due to game mechanics and maybe Ralph is too mad to notice when he gets there and so doesn't do anything about it.
PLEASE DO AN ILLITHID POWERS TIERLIST😭😭😭😭
Karlach is the only one who I let use (carry & throw) barrels because she's our big strong goofball Barbarian and it feels right for her to be doing ridiculous stuff using her raw strength. Feels cheesy and dumb with anyone else though. Lae'Zel is physically strong too but using barrels instead of a sword seems out of character and cowardly for her.
Maybe you could use telekinesis to throw barrels as a caster?
!Not only do they have Teddy Bears, they also speak english! Mind blown! ;p
I always think about the guy who did a pacifist run that ended with left in the elder brain destroy itself via barrelmancy but it kept crashing the game.
Wait what, dropping things doesn't break invisibility?
S+ gale's stomach
shouldve put gale on the list in s+ tier lmfao
29:30 xD
I’m perfectly fine believing that Teddy Roosevelt is multiversally famous. 🤷♂️
One of the only things I know about him is that he more or less invented the press conference, so that makes sense
Underwear tier list when?
Nooooooo, not the goddamn barrelmancy tierlist
Translate to English just adds extra "o's" to this comment lol
