How Long Can I Romance Astarion WITHOUT Learning He is a Vampire?

- I wanted to challenge myself, how far can I make it into the game romancing Astarion NOT knowing that he is a vampire. Aside from the scene with the Gur, I HAD to keep him in my party and could NOT long rest without him in my party.
To plan for this, I needed to be The Dark Urge, as they have additional long rest scenes that will take priority. I carefully planned all my long rests so that the two scenes with Karlach/Wyll, and the emperor scenes would play before the bite could. I also avoided talking to Astarion in the Underdark as that'll spark his confession and mean no bite will happen.
It was rough as I had to power through the story and clear the Goblin Camp and Grymforge at only a level 2 with minimal rests.
These are the cut scenes, enjoy.

immediately failed this run bc he tried to eat me first long rest
You have to time your long rests perfectly and it can only be done as The Dark Urge. You have time rests to line up with priority cut scenes, like recruiting Karlach. Otherwise after the grove fight his bite will be up as it is secondary priority after you reach the grove.
@@kiterafrey thats weird, i long rested around 15 times(after every fight because i wanted all possible camp scenes) in act 1 before going to underdark and never got his bite scene lol
edit: my approval was as high as possible because i use approval mod so chose dialogues he approves of except 2 times(when talking to zevlor at grove and recruiting halsin to go with me) because resist durge
I really wish there was an alternate "bite scene" if Astarion confesses to you that he is a vampire. Along the lines of him shaking you awake and asking for a nibble or a dialogue where you can offer your neck to him after said confession.
Omfg yes! I would LOVE this.
@@kiterafrey I hate how if he confesses you can't be his personal juice box. Larion needs to add that in, I swear.
@@itsarubiks It is sad that when we say "you can bite me tonight" , he just says: "Ok! see ya !"
BUT NOT CUTSCENE T.T
How do you get the confession before the night bite?
@@almalexiel If you go long enough without getting his bite, he'll confess to you randomly when you talk to him. For me, it happened when I entered the underdark and ruined my first run of this challenge so I had to start over.
Edit: It is random, only happens at high level approval. It is fully random after high level approval if you haven't had the bite scene yet. UNLESS you enter the underdark, which forces it to happen because his dialog in the underdark requires your knowledge in the if/then clause of the code.
I got this, we Boinked twice before he told me. I was like "well obviously " he stabbed the Gur in the eye and his dead body rated him out.
Not to mention those teeth, the bite marks, his eyes, how he stands next to a mirror in camp with no reflection....
he's not exactly subtle about it. I love his shocked reaction to that line
Now this is the kind of content I'm here for
It would be interesting to continue the intrigue until the meeting with Raphael or the drow in the MoonTower
I can always try again by skipping Nere and picklocking into Moonrise but Nere was just the max my health could take without another long rest.
So, I know this has been a hot min - I attempted to do skip Nere and go to moonrise. The first thing he did entering Act 2 was attempt to bite me. I hadn't even long rested, it just went straight into the cut scene. It was awkward and didn't make sense. I'm tempted to do a follow up video, as I took a very different faster path the second time, but it'll have the same ending sadly.
I haven't gotten a chance to watch the video yet but I have just been doing this too! I got to level 5, Day 26 of Eleasis (Day 7). But I'm stuck now. If I talk to him, he confesses vampirism. If I long rest, he bites. I did sleep with him at the tiefling party (had 39 approval at the time, also tested 40 approval and seemed to be the same).
I didn't track my exact days, but rather story events. Counting those events now, I made it 10 rests before the bite. If I'd skipped my first 3 rests I could've gone farther in the story, but I would lose several Astarion easy approval points.
I may have to try again. I desperately want to make it to a specific point to test a theory that this run created for me.
@@kiterafrey if you look in your journal, at the dialogue tab, it well tell you what day of the month it is. I, maybe embarrassingly, Googled Faerun calendar, and copied it into my BG3 Google sheets. ETA. The game starts on 20 Eleasis.
Okay, but what if he hates you or is in Dislike with you. I’ve been trying to figure them out so for storytelling purposes, I know which ones to activate. Like I know if I play shadow heart and I tell him that I worship Shar and fail in the beginning he is not keen on us.
If he hates you, aside from the X scene, you could go just as long without his vampire confession. I chose to do it romancing him to share that love scene's unique version.
But if you don't romance him you will not discover his scars until Act 2 at the earlist.
For Origins, don't confess a secret to him until after his bite scene unless you are The Dark Urge or unless he asks (like with Gale he'll ask after your first consumption), or until you hit Medium approval naturally. At Neutral he doesn't trust you and though not an active disapproval for all, he'll passivly disapprove, meaning the choice impacts without a prompt but doesn't effect approval rates. Like how in Gales romance you need 3 heroic choices in the grove, but it doesn't matter which, to get his confession.
You could just kill him so he never confesses. You can keep it up until having to enter act 2. It stops companions from auto updating their personal quests. It is also safe to long rest at that point when he is dead then just revive him via withers.
Interesting. I definitely want to try and do with him alive for the challenge, but it would also be cool to do what you're suggesting as a way to hack into different variants of scenes for characters to see just how much Larian planned for
@@kiterafrey I did this to keep wyll from getting horns hahaha before long resting, I fill wyll with suicidal thoughts and make him go into a chasm…then I can long rest and have him not have horns despite karlach living.
@@nathanieljefferies5491 How do you fill him with suicidal thoughts? I didn't know we could influence our companions like that. 🤯
@@kiterafrey i was being sarcastic…hahahah I just meant I control as him and make him jump off a chasm…it is also how I farmed approval for gale early on my making him kill himself so I can get his scroll and then revive via withers(then pickpocket the gold back hahaha)…I got a ton of approval for that and got him to confess about his condition before he ever needed to consume an artifact. You can only do that in Act 3 when forcing companions to use the astral tadpole. Effed up i know
@@nathanieljefferies5491 😂😂 it's like you're playing an entirely different game
Oh and i think i was alone with this challenge. 😂 but i struggle. He is so long neutral with me if he don't bite me even if i give him the book of thay. 😢 so i dcared let him bite me and then he likes me more😂
It can be rough. I've romanced him many times before the run, so I have most of his higher rated approvals memorized, I don't think I could've pull it off if I hadn't gotten to know him so well.
