According to the DnD chart drows can't reproduce with gnomes or dwarfs, and humans can't either. There is a half-dwarf race in Dark Sun but it's created by evil sorcerers and the birthing process is usually fatal to the human mother.

Drow. Not drows.

Durge is an actual character in the story
Tav is a Barbie that doesn't really exist in the story that's there for whiny babies who can't handle playing a character with a horrible past life on a redemption arc

>>555889186
Durge is for fags with zero imagination who cannot make their own dnd character like (you) and need the game to do it instead. Also written by a REAL sexual predator

I don't care about the Dead Three, Bhaalspawns, Orin, Ketheric or Gortash. Cope and sneed

Drizzt being canon doesn't mean every word in Salvatore's books is the word of Shar. This is not even touching on the fact that the lore has always been fluid and is subject to change in the future. The canon society of Menzoberranzan is defined by the latest sourcebooks, not Salvatore's wet dream from forty years ago.

These barely-sentient creatures take refuge in crass stupidity. They hide behind willful ignorance, because to admit even something as trivial as a typo or minor grammatical error would require accountability. There is a pattern with Mintharafag haters.

Gortash is actually kinda funny. He's the guy who follows the tyrannical god of ruling over everyone with an iron fist, and yet, he's the only honest motherfucker in the chosen trio.
Ketheric and Durge were both plotting betrayal while Gortash is more than willing to be chill and work with others as long as they aren't stupid pushovers.

Gortash is gay for a lizard, he's not trustworthy

>>555890101
>>555890221
My last interaction with him was the coronation so I don't know what happens next, but before that I sneaked into his living quarters to read his journal and notes lying around plus to steal the two uniques to make a point. While he considers it a natural outcome that eventually he, a true Banite would control all stones and treat the party as useful vagabonds to be pitted against Orin so you'd bring him the other two Netherstones he still says he would find "suitable positions" for you and your allies in the new world order afterwards.

Could this be an ironic remark about the premeditated death sentence of your party once you outlive your usefulness? Sure, but why would he switch phrasing in his own journal while writing about much more important matters in an honest and straightforward manner throughout the text? Gortash comes across as an LE ruler who generally values competence and mostly uses subterfuge as a means to get shit done. He knows he can't do everything by himself, so as long as you contribute his reign without being an explicit threat I think he's fine with cooperation.

I saw Orin at a circus in Rivington yesterday. I told her how cool it was to meet her in person, but I didn't want to be a tadpole and bother her by asking for an autograph or anything. She said, "So you're the lickspittle who crushed the Bone Lord's thrall." I was taken aback, and all I could say was "Whuh?" but she cut me off with "Have you come beg-begging, sniffing for our stones?" and started waving her hand in front of my face. I didn't know what to reply, and she started to cackle. "When you find the lordling, tell him Orin is watching," she said, before twisting her ring and disappearing.

Tenderly Raping Astarion and using the tadpole to tell him he liked it!

Now This Is What I Call Bullshit! I understand left cannot be replicated by the game's char creator but why didn't they pick the closest thing to it? Let's say 15 (+2)/15/15/8/8/8(+1)? It's not like origin companions don't need a Feat to fix their odd numbers!

This is probably some default Ranger statline alongside with the Favoured Enemy and Natural Explorer options. Or are these options randomized during each time you pick Ranger in the creator? We'll see. Then it's time to build him from the ground up!

Every time someone mentions Minthara, Shadowheart, Karlach, Lae'zel, or even Astarion, it must be Mintharafag. Every time someone praises the beauty of elves or drow, it must be Mintharafag. Every time a post is more than four sentences long, it must be Mintharafag. Every time a Tav has short hair, it must be Mintharafag, for short hair was invented by Mintharafag. Annah and Imoen and Leliana were designed by Mintharafag. I can't stop thinking about Mintharafag and what they're currently doing. I wake up and go to sleep thinking about Mintharafag.

Which is horseshit thematically, Warlocks are half casters but a dude playing an instrument has the same proficency in casting spells as a guy that dedicated his entire life and studies to learning them (Wizards)?

That was the laziest solution possible by WotC to make bards good.

Thematically, classes are differentiated by more than the number of their spell slots or source of magic. A Wizard is not a Sorcerer is not a Bard is not a Warlock is not a Cleric is not a Druid. Each class is distinct, and each would be offended if mistaken for another.

What's a better dialogue skill between Insight and Intimidation?

File: 20260201161138_1.jpg (340 KB)

>>555951681
Do you have Persuasion?
If yes, Insight.
If no, Intimidation.

skills feel way less important here than in the pathfinder games

how did everyone else make it to baldur's gate before you if ketheric's army was camped on the only road

>>555951681
There's no "better" but I prefer Insight. Intimidation is governed by CHA, meaning anybody who does party face things (mostly Persuasion, but also some Deception) excels in it. On top of that martials more often have Proficiency in it that not (Soldier background and being Half-Orc alone ensure that). So while it appears more frequently as the part of the big 3 "convince people to do shit" CHA skill it's also easier to cover and rarely used to access hidden / exclusive information or solution.

Insight is WIS based which covers a wide range of other skills (most crucially Perception but Survival also pops up every know and then) and generally more aimed at noticing body language and emotions. If you pass it usually adds an extra dialogue option that lets you proceed. Almost all classes can be proficient but it's mostly worth for WIS casters (Druids, Rangers, Clerics) and Monks. There's also way less items that help with Insight checks, so lacking a specialist might hit harder.

>>555950135
Dropping stuff from your inventory is a free action in this game, and mage hand can throw objects. So you can drop a health potion as a free action and then on the hand's turn it can throw it on n ally for free healing. You can do the same thing with other objects, throwing objects at enemies. It doesn't have much strength for direct damage, but you can throw stuff like grease and oil and fire etc to set up. Summoning it before the fight starts even saves you the action of summoning it, so it becomes truly free.

It is slightly cheesy to do this though, since dropping stuff from your inventory is not actually a free action. Dropping from your hand is a free action, but rummaging through your pack is not a free action. You could say you have a specially designed belt or bandolier that has your potions arrayed in a way that lets you ditch them on the ground without interrupting what you're doing, I've had people do that on tabletop, but in that case I had them actually pay a tailor for the special bandolier at least as an entry cost, which bg3 doesn't have. So it's up to you decide what is cheesy and what is not, and what enhances your gameplay experience and what might make it too easy. Hell, at this point, I don't even use Magical Pockets at all, it's one of my self-imposed rules.

Right, but that need not determine the rest of your canon. The starting party in BG2 is as arbitrary as the game assigning the player classes that cover the basics.
>Gorion's Ward
The protagonist of BG1 and BG2 is called CHARNAME. "Gorion's Ward" is the soulless, nondescript label for the Bhaalspawn in WotC canon.

Actually, that's quite incorrect. BG1 and BG2 take place in 1368-1369 DR, with CHARNAME being twenty years old at the start of their journey. Dragonborn - or dragonfreaks, as I prefer to call them - were transplanted from Abeir to Toril during the Spellplague, which started in 1385 DR. Thus, CHARNAME couldn't possibly have been a dragonfreak. You also don't "ascend" a person. That's semantically incorrect. I know you're too stupid and proud of your ignorance for this post to register, but maybe it'll be helpful to others.

I've got an EK as my party face right now and it's been fine. I'm okay with not steamrolling through every encounter by dialogue alone, but even at 12 CHA and taking a background that gives proficiency in at least one dialogue skill, plus a party member giving Guidance it's been good so far. For Friends you just need to warp back to camp as soon as you're done with the dialogue to avoid any hostility.

Tbf, GOOlocks rarely actually get the attention of the GOO even once. Usually it's more like using some fucked up ritual to sap some of that power, like running up to them with a syringe and extracting the magic because they're so big they won't even notice.

...Because I've proclaimed no such thing. Announcing reports, as you well know, is against the rules. Since the topic of the moment during these dead hours was the (prophesied) death of the general, I thought it appropriate to remind others that generals die not due to a lack of activity - which can be artificial or low-quality - but due to apathy. There are plenty of generals where a thread can take a week to hit the bump limit, and they're doing fine. /bgg/ will be fine as long as we discuss Baldur's Gate. Here is Bodhi from Baldur's Gate 2.

This is a Baldur's Gate General and you question 100% belongs here. The abundance of BG3 content can be attributed to the recency and popularity of the game.
As for your question you might find something similar in a major mod compilation like the Tweaks Anthology (https://www.gibberlings3.net/mods/tweaks/tweaks/) but it's not too likely.
There are armor(s) in the games that allow spellcasting (e..g Elven Chain Mail) but to be able to do thief things on top of that? That'd be way over the top. Maybe ask in /crpgg/ if they know any mod like this.
