Probably the first completion of Honour mode worldwide? Not sure if anyone else has done it. Completed 11/30/2023. Broadcasted live on Twitch -- Watch live at / chronos
I respect that you're routing a glitchless run, but remember that your run does count and is very impressive. Anybody complaining probably couldn't even replicate the glitches and are being punks. Big Respect for this incredible run. PS, I followed with it and beat honor mode using your strats, so thanks for posting this.
I'm sorry... that "it doesn't count"? What is that supposed to mean? Not counting for what? Why would anybody say something like that? You successfully cracked the game, probably with the help of a magnificent community - good work mate!
@@yodasnot-so-wellcousin445 i mean if someone restarts act 1 multiple times because they want to try it a different way (which is fairly common), its not absurd
@@yodasnot-so-wellcousin445 Oh it's possible!! Use enough time mulling over funny rebuilds, replaying conversations, etc :-P (obviously less relevant in honor mode though). I have over 1000 hours logged in the game and still haven't finished it 😛
I've never watched a speedrun of this game before, and right at the start where you jump through the wall of the nautiloid broke my brain for a moment. I never would have thought that was a thing you could do in this game lmao
I went for the good ending since I wasn't sure if the other endings would give the achievement, could've been a few minutes faster doing other things, and I also didn't check if blowing up Gale counts as well in Act 2, but it probably doesn't work, so I just did All Acts with the best possible ending.
@@ChronosReturns As someone who did a Gale run on honour mode I can confirm that you are correct - I think any of the main act 3 wins should count towards the achievement
The Gale ending works in act 3 at least. I did it for my tactician achievement so circumvent doing the end fight just out of curisoity to see if it would work and it did.
I love how this speedrun literally ignores walls, physics and all laws established by Larian and yet still works like.. as someone who studies game design this is just INSANE how well thought through this game is, and then some silly people decide to move some abilities around in their hotpar to permanentely recast witchbolt, or throw a boss off a bridge instead of fighting I LOVE this
I really wish more people took this attitude towards speedruns. People are so quick to dismiss this stuff as "cheating" or "not really playing the game", when all they've done is expand the possibility space of a game where you can already do tons of crazy stuff just playing "by the rules". Like speedrunners aren't working just as hard to route these skips, glitches, and identify the fastest path possible as the the tabletop grognards are to win slowly by min-maxing within the rules and often additional fair-play handicaps (disclaimer: I do slow-jam solo Tactician/Honour mode challenge runs for this game so I'm taking a potshot at myself as well). It would be nice if people just had a little more imagination and a little more empathy when watching speedrunners work. Nobody is being actually harmed, in life or livelihood, because a speedrunner made your favorite single-player game do something unexpectedly silly.
@@forestsavior I've been a speed run fan since I first saw glitches for TLOZ: Twilight Princess back in like 2009 (was 8 years old back then). It's just fascinating to see and I honestly honour it. And I'll never stop preaching about how speed running is an art in itself. I mean, speedrunners aren't even destroying the games because if you check out any big names (linkus7 for wind walked, gymnast86, demon, swiftIke - I can only name Zelda speedrunners atm) they all spent HUNDREDS OF HOURS in the respective games and bringing even more attention to them. Speed running is the art of spending as much time in learning, how to beat the game in as little time as possible.
If you haven’t played the game yet all I can say it’s everything you think it is and then a FUCK TON more. Truly one of the best rpgs we have gotten in decades and unfortunately unless another company really steps up we probably won’t see something like this for AT LEAST another 5-7 years.
This was the first speedrun i have ever seen and seeing all the glitches....... My mind went poof. Seeing you get excited over getting golden die was the funny though😵💫
"Just chill, take it easy, finish the game in under 40 minutes while relaxing" I jest, but super impressive run dude! Here's me still making basic mistakes in honour mode and you're already mastering skipping the things that scare me!
It's from a glitch called infinite status. By killing a character then picking them up while in turn based mode, turning off turned based mode and reviving them, any turn based status effects will be indefinite. This is really good by making any turn based effects like feather fall, enhance leap, and invisibility to not tick down, but any negative status effects will also not tick down. The statuses will tick down again after going back into turn based mode, such as entering combat or turning it on manually.
I'm guessing but it seems he never encountered Orin's shape-shifted form like normal and she was in that form when he found her and just killed the shapeshifted form in one hit before she could shift back to herself.
@@natik8342 I'm in the same boat - tried yesterday to maybe just do the first "couple minutes" and get to Act2. But after an hour of trying (and dying) on this first jump, I gave up ;D
that must seem so funny from the perspective of NPCs, just half naked people jumping across the planes ...also damn...shadowhert gets more abused than by the Dark Justiciars
On my first day of trying to learn the tricks, I was able to get the infinite enhance leap and feather fall every time. But today i haven't been able to do it a single time. Is there a guide for this specific trick currently? If not i guess ill wait for the tutorial you commented about. Sick run btw
When you're invisible, you can just walk by all of the enemies to just trigger the ending immediately. That's why we have all of our characters dead besides our Tav so we don't have to worry about them being in the way.
Tadpole business and Emperors voice affecting Jaheira is the funniest thing ever considering she doesn’t even have one. Truly going beyond the Devs imagination for these runs
Can I note the irony in someone who knows tricks I cannot fathom the origins of not knowing how to change the dice skins? It made me chuckle. Nice run dude.
Some tricks are probably PC exclusive, so many of the tricks are probably not possible, any wall clips are probably not possible. I haven't played console, but if they allow you to switch characters during the cutscenes, then the biggest skip is still possible. Ketheric fight and the Netherbrain are doable this way on console. I think you might still also be able to do Gortash and Orin the same way as well, but am unsure.
Gale Ending for Act 2 does not count for Honour mode. For act 3, I believe that it does but I haven't tested it, and would probably be the same speed since there's a lot of extra side dialogue that he has in exchange.
I am moving the create water spell around to animation cancel the witch bolt, witch bolt lasts forever due to the infinite status glitch which makes any turn based actions last permanently until you enter turn based mode again. For Ketheric not responding, it's due to the actions we are taking at Shar's temple.
I've played through this game 4 times for a combined 230~ hours, so I thought I'd seen a pretty good chunk of what it has to offer. What the fuck is happening
So what happens is we enter Ketheric fight while in the Shar cutscene with the Nightsong. When we kill the Nightsong in the cutscene, Last Light Inn doesn't get destroyed just yet, it's in a mid state where the Nightsong is dead and Last Light Inn is still protected. When we kill Ketheric, it makes it as if Last Light Inn was still alive, letting us recruit Jaheira.
Congrats on your run! This is an impressive accomplishment in and of itself, but it's even more impressive that you did this well when BG3 and your PC hardware clearly aren't on the best of terms. I legit had a jump scare when your game lagged on the Ketheric Witch Bolt spam initiation. Best of luck on faster times and more weird nonsense with low-quality hair textures in your future!
It's a skip called Nautiloid skip, probably one of the hardest speedrun tricks to learn. Here's a guide from Mae, the Any% WR holder: www.speedrun.com/baldurs_gate_3/guides/tab7v
btw and we are sending bug reports look at this if someone send this to dews they will ignore it because its too much work to fix the game :D but its kinda fun to watch im just struggeling to finish game on my second run on honor mode :D
This is amazing man, if you release a tutorial i will actually get into speedrunning this game. It's so good and it would would be such a good game to do it on
Yea thats the point of any% speedrun: do only things that are considered 'beating' the game, aka the big bad guy etc (and of course using exploits/glitches etc).
What is the difficulty level of Honor Mode? Is it "Tactician" + only 1 save or "normal" + only 1 save? I have another question: There is a new achievement called "Group Feinhammer" (Complete the game in honor mode). Can you also get the achievement if you create a custom game and activate honor mode there?
The difficulty level is Tactician with only 1 save and bosses have additional legendary aspects. For the achievement, you can only get it with honour mode as far as I know.
if you kill orin first then you can talk gortash into helping you against the nether brain :) he then will just die in front of the brain :) Not sure if its faster but its funny to see
I love honor mode I wished this had been the default option when I started playing not screw around with save slots I don't need or tempted into rerolling dice for perfect rolls I just play things thru now so much more fun
It's currently different from the Any% All Acts Run due to us being able to do Ketheric fight in a different way. It is extremely different in Act 2, as we recruit Lae'zel and kill Ketheric by having Shadowheart transform into a bear by multiclassing as a Druid then jumping and 'goomba stomping' Ketheric. Here is a link of that run: ruclips.net/video/GD3RmOeeHFI/видео.html&ab_channel=Chronos
@@George-j6v3j ouch ! well honor mode is just a matter of change the route a little to gain 1 more level then usual for act 1 ... once you reach level 4-ish you are mostly good to go
What happens if you fail Command to get the lantern and the attack roll on Witchbolt? Or the throw on Gorash, or the attack roll on Orin, or the pickpocketing a couple of times?
For all the chance rolls described above: If you fail Command Drop, you do have another level up for more spell slots, potentially 2 levels, giving you 5 45% shots at it. If you don't get it I believe you can still long rest at this point for them. For the attack roll on Witchbolt, it's the same thing as command drop, if you fail the attack roll you can keep attempting it i believe around 5 times at least, sneak improves the chance of it landing by about 10% as well. For the throw on Gortash, if you fail it he still stands there not doing anything, giving you infinite attempts without worry. For the attack roll on Orin, you have 2 chances to knock her out with 2 swings, once manually, then the second time when she's running. If she escapes, just wait around 15-20 seconds and she'll reappear and you can keep trying again. For the pickpocketing on Felogyr, that should not be necessary for the run, I just made a mistake so I needed to do backup strats here to ensure I had enough fireworks. Overall there's not as much RNG as you might think, and it can be lowered as well a bit. Of course, if you fail the rolls overall then tough luck, restarting a run isn't too long, and is common for speedrunners when you get unlucky to retry.
I have got not idea what the hell is happening with all these glitches the speedrun has to rely on to work, and Larian hasn't patched out yet, but I find it immensely hilarious.
It's to deal with the cutscene at the Temple of Shar still playing, so it doesn't start the fight as long as I am out of range of Ketheric. If I walked into range it would start the fight. If you're not in the cutscene with the Nightsong, Ketheric will start running towards you and trigger the combat start himself.
@@ChronosReturns Hmm, well then I think I'm fucked, haha. On PS5 I can't jump or teleport through the Mindflayer Oubliette into the Mindflayer Colony... so if I want to get down there, I have to have already freed or killed the Nightsong, because I have to fight Ketheric on the rooftop (I've been setting up explosive barrels up there to oneshot him). There's a lot of annoying jump glitches that's not possible on the PS5 unfortunately :/
Should i congratz u? For jumping and callin it "honour" mode like u did anything. Same start for easy mode. This is just sad. And you callin it "i beat honour mode!!!" . Pihh

If you fail Command Drop, you do have another level up for more spell slots, potentially 2 levels, giving you 5 45% shots at it. If you don't get it I believe you can still long rest at this point for them.
For the attack roll on Witchbolt, it's the same thing as command drop, if you fail the attack roll you can keep attempting it i believe around 5 times at least, sneak improves the chance of it landing by about 10% as well.
For the throw on Gortash, if you fail it he still stands there not doing anything, giving you infinite attempts without worry.
For the attack roll on Orin, you have 2 chances to knock her out with 2 swings, once manually, then the second time when she's running. If she escapes, just wait around 15-20 seconds and she'll reappear and you can keep trying again.
For the pickpocketing on Felogyr, that should not be necessary for the run, I just made a mistake so I needed to do backup strats here to ensure I had enough fireworks.
Overall there's not as much RNG as you might think, and it can be lowered as well a bit. Of course, if you fail the rolls overall then tough luck, restarting a run isn't too long, and is common for speedrunners when you get unlucky to retry.
@@ChronosReturnscouldn't you roll a halfling to have that inherently lucky feat?
im gunna say it.........of course he's a gnome
you are a beast :O
Daaaamn
But thank you for not blowing up my precious Gale
how is it your feather falling and jump boost aren't tocking down???
Watch my tutorial series for an explanation on the tricks that are occurring here: ruclips.net/video/Gbzo0xKFT-4/видео.html&ab_channel=Chronos
cringe gameplay, he just bug the game lol
You are playing a different game entirely
Seeing the map in each section was so funny
I have got not idea what the hell is happening with all these glitches the speedrun has to rely on to work, and Larian hasn't patched out yet, but I find it immensely hilarious.
Is there any special reason combat isn't triggered when you start damaging Thorm with Witch Bolt?
It's to deal with the cutscene at the Temple of Shar still playing, so it doesn't start the fight as long as I am out of range of Ketheric. If I walked into range it would start the fight. If you're not in the cutscene with the Nightsong, Ketheric will start running towards you and trigger the combat start himself.
@@ChronosReturns Hmm, well then I think I'm fucked, haha. On PS5 I can't jump or teleport through the Mindflayer Oubliette into the Mindflayer Colony... so if I want to get down there, I have to have already freed or killed the Nightsong, because I have to fight Ketheric on the rooftop (I've been setting up explosive barrels up there to oneshot him).
There's a lot of annoying jump glitches that's not possible on the PS5 unfortunately :/
Do we know how or why the ketheric glitch works?
no intresting more glitches !!
I can't tell what the hell is going on.
Should i congratz u? For jumping and callin it "honour" mode like u did anything. Same start for easy mode. This is just sad. And you callin it "i beat honour mode!!!" . Pihh
