Tamgential but this game is extremely difficult. I am playing on Explorer difficulty but I have to save scum like hell. I am in Act 1. My party is level 4 but all the next enemies I can find are level 5 and destroy me. I don't have any good equipment either. The few magical items I have been found I have had to feed to the that bastard. But I think good equipment is in all likelihood not required at this point.
Interesting. I'm playing on Explorer as well, and I haven't died once. Mind you, I'm still in Act 1 and I think I'm at level 4 or 5. There are tons of tips/tricks videos on YouTube, some of them around 10 minutes long. The game has a lot of systems and choices to make, and I feel that you can really optimize your combat and builds. However, I don't think you need to try very hard on the Explorer difficulty (based on my playtime). Maybe you could tell us which class you're playing and which companions you're bringing along, so someone might be able to give you more tips
I am playing as the tiefling barbarian lady and currently my party is shadowheart, gale and the rogue drow. At the camp I have laezel and the blade of frontiers.
The builds for these characters are not well thought out. When leveling up most of the choices have already been made for me. There are a few options but I have no idea what to choose for them so I pick them almost randomly.
I will try looking at tips videos.
We have a couple people playing Baldurs Gate 3 on Hexbear. Im sure if you made a thread some people would give you some pointers. I would love to give you some tips but im kind of a noob myself.
I made a Tiefling Sorcerer. You use charisma as your main stat for sorcery it makes you also really good at talking. I head a couple of cases in which I completely avoided fights due to persuasion. Also the sorcerers metamagic is really cool. Allows you to do stuff like increasing spells range or cast a spell twice.
This helps. Thanks a lot. Do you know of a place which has information on good builds that I can just follow? I don't know DnD5e so that would help. Once I get a better handle on the game I am gonna start a new game with a custom character.
Just need a melee fighter build for my character and guides for leveling up companions. Don't mind following something cookie cutter. Thanks again.
