I’m 100+ hours into an honor run and I’ve finally made a decision I apparently can’t live with. I was offered a gift at the end of act 2, and while it was totally out of character for me to accept it, my curiosity got the better of me. I never made it this far before and I wanted to see what would happen. Now I hardly even...
The worm gives you persuasion and intimidation expertise for a reason.
I tried to make them all eat it in my honor run. Laezel it didn’t work with since she has two checks but everyone else was fine since they put up minimal arguments against using it. Except Astarion of course, he used it as quick as I did.
Honor mode is one single save, permanent death. You can’t go back once you make a decision. It’s the reason you should know exactly how you’re planning on running honor mode so you don’t make mistakes that bork your save file or kill you outright (taunting Vlaakith is one way to kill yourself via dialog). I died on my first honor attempt due to stupidity so take my warning to heart. My second run was much more careful and now I have the golden dice.
Those outer ring powers are really good but the reason I personally always use the astral tadpole is the free flight on everyone.
Fly to get around the battlefield is stupidly overpowered especially if all your guys have it. It basically doubles your movement as soon as you get it since fly is 60 ft of movement.
What gift? Im struggling to think of anything at the end of act 2 that is given to Tav.
Edit: I thought some more on it, do you mean the astral gift? If thats the gift you took then you could play it like this: Emp used his persuasion to convince you to take the gift. You realized it was a trap and now you will use those powers to betray Emp. Free the person in the bubble and free yourself from the ghaik. You are restored to humanity if the BBEG dies. I tried to be mostly spoiler free in case you hadn’t played through fully already.
The Narrator says that mind flayer near Ragzlin isn’t your captor.
This mind flayer’s build is smaller, its garb plainer - a fearsome creature even in death, but not the one that tormented you.
Then the first time Ragzlin asks who killed it it shows you this memory:
You see a clawed hand open a holding pod - devoid of flesh, only darkness.
Then Dror asks a second time and the mind flayer responds with this memory:
You see a clawed hand open the holding pod. The murk clears to reveal a face. Yours.
So we don’t have clawed hands first off. And we never opened a holding pod except Shadowheart’s. So is the illithid making it up? Did Orin (or another doppleganger) pretend to be us? Those are my two guesses at what’s happening.
Our abductor isn’t the near dead illithid near Astarion. None of the illithid that you can interact with in act 1 are our captors as far as i can tell. I think this because i once picked up all the illithid bodies and sent them to camp to see if the Dror Ragzlin illithid still accuses you. It does.
I know this is going to be painful to hear for a 100gb game but have you tried reinstalling the game? I had an issue on PS5 when the game first came out that only went away after a reinstall. I don’t believe there is a setting to disable the narrator voice.
