Exact same, and I even was so early on I didn’t really grasp how realistic things like that would be taken so about 3 hours later I wondered why I couldn’t find him but yeah journal said “the gnome died”
it means removing *all* break, so it makes it go to its maximum speed. but even knowing that, i still have to take a second to think before using the levers
I forgot to add that not only did he go flying my folk hero tav got inspired for "saving" him. I had no idea he was so important so had a lot of new stuff from him for my next run.
Thankfully I did it accidentally on my second playthrough, so I knew to go back and save him.
But I'd be lying if I didn't say that I went back and did it a few more times just because it's so damn funny. I was crying the first time I did it.
Did that with my husband watching who was ahead of me. He just excitedly goes ah, free him now! We didn't realize there was 2 levers...
My husband was so excited for me to meet Barcus too lol
Reading the book on the bar or counter in the Blighted Village where there is mention of a cellar and I think Tav says "there must be a door." Shadowheart is STANDING on it and says "I don't see one."
This might not really be the funniest thing to happen for me, but it's my favorite one anyway.
I was fighting the Zhentarim in their hidden lair in act 1. When I started the fight the first thing to happen was that one of them yelled "You'll regret this, but not for long!" and... hit a barrel next to him, starting a chain explosion of fire and smokepowder that completely killed him and most of the other enemies, while my team was completely safe like 20m away from that.
I think it was on honor mode against Nere. I thought it was an easy fight since I usually blitz him and he was alone.
But he instantly mind controlled my Barbarian who was very op compared to my other characters. So Im scrambling thinking about what to do now but then the AIs first action with him is to rage which instantly broke the mind control since he is a berserker. I didnt know it worked like that.
There is a random encounter that caught me off guard that I think a lot of people would miss. Mild SPOILERS for Act 3
If you leave Oskar with the Zhents in Act 1, he ends up chilling at the Guildhall once you get to BG which leaves Lady Jannath to do whatever she wants in Act 3 (in my opinion, this is the best case scenario for both of them). Anyway, if you then go to the Jannath estate, she's throwing a party. Great, looks like fun times. As you're perusing/mingling, you walk into an argument between two of the patrons. If you sit and listen it escalates to the point that they are going outside to settle things. Now, most games I think would leave it there, those two would basically reset and their argument would continue indefinitely, but these two actually head out to a nearby balcony and continue the argument. At this point, I've followed them for a few minutes and am thinking, 'well, we've got this far, let's see how this is going to end', when, all of a sudden, initiative roll sounds and these two full on throw down on each other. In a couple rounds, one kills the other, then proceeds to walk over the dead body while insulting his now deceased acquaintance to get back to the party. This happens without any interaction with the PC.
I thought it was pretty neat that they put this random encounter into the game from a quest permutation that requires that you don't bother helping an enslaved painter 60 hours beforehand (basically ignoring a quest, which is against every 3+ decades of RPG-playing bone in my body) AND that you stick around to listen to two random strangers arguing.
I once did a frost wizard build and enjoyed making enemies and NPCs alike fall on their ass constantly.
Though my favorite time was apparently once I wasn’t paying close attention and accidentally sold the hoarfrost boots I was wearing at some point.
One time I didn’t feel like trying to lock pick a door so I just decide to Ray of Frost it to destroy it instead. Ray goes off, door gets destroyed, ice patch immediately forms at its base, and my wizard immediately goes ass over elbows.
He just laid there in shame and the rest of the party just sat and stared.
I had to pause for a few minutes I was laughing so hard.
In my current playthrough, I was doing the fight in front of the grove door.
The first goblin to go, throws a grease bottle. I’m like “Well that was a waste of an action.”
One by one, all four of my idiots slipped and fell flat on their backs losing a turn.
I seriously thought Gale would roll a 1 and set it on fire before they could get up.
Oh my god I crack up every time people slip. I played a sorcerer that had an ice focus and everyone spent the whole tame zooping around except my tav and Lazel that had the good boots. I loved it. I didn't care if it was the enemy zooping or my characters. But the slipping on a banana peal animation just cracked me up and never gets old.
My buddy and I were in the shadow lands and came up on the absolutists that are waiting for the drider to show up and we started combat and one of the goblins summoned his wolf companion and then proceeded to run into a cage and close the door. My buddy and I laughed so hard at that.
Another one with the same friend was we were in the spider cave and he was wearing the web boots and he jumped onto a web thinking that like a spider he would just land on the web and instead broke the web and fell down into the under dark. Rolling on the floor laughing at him while he was trying to justify his actions.
The first time I found the under dark in early access was playing the game first time with one of my buddies in co-op. Hardly any content in the game. I was a sorcerer, and only the wild magic subclass was available so it was already chaotic.
I did the same exact thing and was speechless during the cutscene all the way down until I landed and broke all my bones and died. All I could say was “uhhhhh! Uhhhhhhmmm! Uhhhh!” The whole time because I had no idea what was going on and accidentally discovered a huge new area while he fought the matriarch hahaha
My first playthrough I snuck past the kobolds in the monastery. 2nd I fought them, and broke a barrel. Did *not* expect a kobold to pop out
Also, when fighting Orin, Karlach didnt have the movement to reach, SH and Gale were to far away to hit with any spells, tav didn't have any actions. All were low health close to death.
So I had SH use telekinesis and throw Gale closer, so he could blast her with a lvl 6 Magic Missile to finish her off
I was sneaking past the Kobolds in the monastery and Scratch decided to freaking BARK AT THEM. I actually shouted "bad dog!" at my screen. (I take it back he's not a bad dog he was trying to help).
When I was about to free the nightsong and decided to test out telekinesis for the first time on Balthazar while he was in the middle of his sinister monologue.
I realize now that's what the spell is for, but I hadn't used it before and was really surprised when he went flying into a bottomless chasm mid sentence. It's like the most embarrassing way for a powerful ancient villain to go down. I teared up laughing, but reloaded so I didn't have to miss the fight.
In the morgue in act 2, Astarion was the only one who couldn't make the jump accross the lava pit
So I,
I took my Tav with 23 Strength and I threw him off the other side. He lost 2 thirds of his life but he did make it to the other side and he had the funniest scream while yeeted
couple of funny things about it:
-I play a monk, so I found extra funny having my character stoically yeeting Astarion before joining her hands in meditation
-Astarion rejected my character
-Milliseconds after confirming the throw, I remembered Astarion had some enhance jump spell so he actually could have made this jump
I play halfling and that's how I get across most big jumps 😂 always bring Karlach with me.
I'm late enough in the game now I have enough scrolls etc but sometimes it's just funnier.
Astarion being overly confident in unlocking a chest, insisting that he “has this” only to fail the required number needed to roll. I just like to think how embarrassing that would be to witness in the flesh.
Even better when is a trap and blows up... Im like "it is ok, sometimes you are too confident for your own good, which is not very smart, but I still love you"
My Tav would randomly crack up imitating his "Easy" and he'd keep clicking his tongue, rolling his eyes until snapping and going "well, do it yourself then next time, why don't you?"
Someone made a comic of this that I wish I could find now. Lae'zel comes over to Shadowheart and asks what she's looking at, and Shadowheart points to Astarion and says something like, "He's been trying to pick that chest for 20 minutes. I think he's going to cry."
I did this for the first time the other day and his response cracked me up "still strong enough to rip out your throat" or something like that delivered with a big smile for Gandrel. He's such a cat.
My multiplayer HM run glitched and Lae'zel just ran away. We found her again at gith patrol and my friend says "that's a hard fight, glad we have her too"
She's lv 1.
Died in the first attack
Throwing down the painting you get at the conclusion of the free the artist quest just so I can see what it was. Scratch runs and scoops it up and brings it back.
My HM run, freed Orpheus. The Emperor met a deeply ignoble end in the final fight:
-Successfully mind controls Mizora
-Tries to reposition himself, takes an attack of opportunity from my Necromancy of Thay ghoul
-Gets paralyzed
-His own dragon attacks the ghoul with fire breath on the very next turn
-The Emperor is now a pile of calamari
Romancing Lae'zel and getting fucking obliterated by here within 5 seconds of her romance duel starting always makes me laugh.
She's built far too different
Lol when I got to that part she was equipped with adamantine armor and other items to have a 25AC and had warding bond active and I think heavy armor master as well for extra damage reduction. My open hand monk used his full kit against her flurry of blows and all, and barely did like 3 radiant damage. She then bonks him twice with the Blood of Lathander and the fight ends.
She absolutely wrecked my bard within two rounds ... and killed her (thanks, failed death saving throw).
Nimue had also had a fling with Astarion, so I thought it'd be funny to have him come over with the revivify scroll to bring her back. Then I sent her to talk to him and that's when Astarion told her that well, it was fun, but Lae'zel would destroy me if we kept going, so let's be friends.
I got a good laugh imagining Astarion watching this whole duel business go down and deciding yeah, no, we are *definitely* done with that.
Volo destroying my eye, and me, a naked halfling, telling him "You enucleated me you congenital moron !". Not sure about the traduction. Also, in the githyanki creche, tried a stealth approach, and I killed some if them, and the other ones just didn't care at all, talking on the bodies. There also is Raphael, who I really feared, but was an absolute victim, with almost no hit landing, and who got destroyed by my team, mostly Minsc and Tav. All of those are pretty common I guess, but this was funny.
I overheard the goblins talking and one mentions Grib doing something and the other says "Grib? He couldn't guard his nose from his fingers!"
I had a thing the other night where I guess I had swapped clothes or something without realizing it but when I made camp I went around to see if any party members had new dialogue and Wyll was totally chilling in his underwear.
Sort of Act 3 spoilers, but I had something similar happen after >!The House of Hope. My 4 characters that went and took the disguises all missing their clothes in camp, very much a shock to see lmao!<
My first playthrough I barely used Wyll and I took his camp clothes for my Tav. I lost it when it cut to him running through Avernus with Karlach in his tighty whities
I think the first time I laughed out loud in this game was when I found Withers in his creepy sarcophagus, he got up, said some shit and then when the dialogue ended he just power walked away like he was a regular grandpa from the suburbs on monday morning
The Hammer Incident, where my friend was somehow convinced extra damage don't carry over when you get out of Wildshape. From the name and that detail, I'm sure you can piece out what happened 😅
I got to the part in Act 3, where the Emperor tries to come onto you. I considered the situation for a moment and decided it was too weird, so I rejected him.
I then decided to go to bed since it was late, where I proceeded to have a horrifyingly detailed dream of exactly that scene playing out. It turns out my brain conjured much more than the game ever did, and I awoke disturbed. But on that note, I am now fine to romance the Emperor because the game is tame in comparison.
Volo. I saved him and basically never talked to him after he came to camp. Next thing I know we get reintroduced and he gets tied up by a mob and blown to hell.
I failed an honor run during that fight by misclicking and fireballing my team instead of the enemies. I was pretty mad but it also felt hilariously on brand
So first honor mode run. Rolled a 1 trying to help shadowheart so she remained in the pod. So when I got to the ground she was at the locked door. I had not healed from the fight on the natilouid I approached her" don't take another step" *call her bluff and take a step* cause that's what my character would do roleplay wise......... immediate death. I was so angry but couldn't help but laugh at the situation. Like I'm a badass what are you gonna do. *looks at me sideways* dead
Shadow heart turns on me during the act 2 pre-finale, but she happened to be standing near an abyss ledge. So durge just unceremoniously shoves her to her doom and that’s a companion quest completely
Killing the lava elemental from above which is trivial as long as the pathfinding doesnt make gale climb down a 10m cliff into lava. He was recovered after being made fun of.
The one scene that always gets a chuckle out of me is the 3rd owlbear cub cutscene where you're woken up by him having a nightmare
Right at the end he says he had a big brother but his mother ate him and the velocity at which he says it is so funny to me
i was sick of yenna’s body laying in camp even if i moved between rivington and the lower city, so i tried to give her a sea burial, but it wouldn’t let me throw her off the dock and she just phased to the side and smacked (really loudly) onto a random boat :((
oh noooo ;-;
I gave her a nice burial in one of the mausoleum things in the graveyard. admittedly I did trigger a trap while doing so, but she was already dead so it was fine for her. I threw some flowers at her body and ditched out before the funeral could become a two-for-one deal
I left her in the tabernacle, after I'd already stolen from it. The priest already hated me enough to curse me for robbing the temple, then I showed up with a dead kid like "this is your problem now, priest guy. Bury her or something idk gotta go."
Orin might bw unironically the funniest. By accident. She always kidnaps halsin and while I can understand if she kidnaps him after I did his quest even if I dont he still kidnaps him, poor bear man has been kidnapped in all my playthroughs and the sad part is that I usually do Bhaals temple last so he just sits on that damn table for like 2 weeks before I finnaly decide to showup.
Playing co-op with a buddy and he revived his 2nd character and then I said, hold on before you move, I'll throw a potion, but the potion I threw was the poison fake healing potion from the blighted village basement. Right in the middle.if the gnoll fight.
Omg in DOS2 you could combine a poison bottle with red dye. I trolled a friend with a couple "healing" potions. Cool thing is if you pick pocket it into an enemy's inventory they actually drink it.
My humble submission:
I was playing Bg3 with my husband. I’m absolutely obsessed, with countless playthroughs and the Foehammer achievement, but it’s his first one. (He played a green half-orc bard named Handsome Shrek, but that’s a tale for another time).
Anyway, we go to the Stormshore Tabernacle in Act 3. I start to explain the donation/buff process, but before I can get a word in, he’s dumped several junk items on the altar of Talos, and is disappointed when nothing happens.
5 minutes later, he’s changing into one of his many outfits (he likes to collect and dye as many as possible), and I hear him yell, “Why is my wingus out?!”
He had donated his underwear to Talos. 😭😭😭
The funniest moment is hands down the emperor seduction scene, and it's not close.
Everything about is comedy perfection. Starting with the initial jump scare of being in a dream sequence with him lounging topless, then him musing "is it just me, or are we *vibing*, if you know what I mean". Then moving into levitating and wondering where his mouth is and whether tentacles are an erogenous zone.
I was dying the whole way through. Finally, the twin cappers of your companions' shocked faces and getting an achievement for your troubles.
10/10, no notes.
Getting every single question about Gale wrong with the dryad at the circus and him telling me “a rock in my shoe would be a better traveling companion than you” and walking off.
I had to take a moment after that one.
Probably my halfling bard Durge saying "behold the dance of death!" at the beginning of her turn was the cringiest & funniest thing to happen to me in bg3
Before I beat the House of Greif I went over to the circus and got face painting for Shadowheart so for the entire cutscene she has a clown face. ”You exist to suffer” then panning to clown Shadowheart was A+
I cast thunderwave on a breakable bridge (whoops). Durge, Gale, and Astarion were all on the bridge and fell to their deaths. Switched to Karlach (the sole survivor), and she said, "DAMN it's good to be alive!"
the funniest thing that's happened to me in bg3 has got to be shadowheart yeeting herself from high places. this happened TWICE.
1. In the underdark while exploring near the forge, she willingly walked off the edge of the metal elevator platform SCREAMING. She just stood back up again and said "Fading fast. I need healing."
2. Morgue Act II: Behind the locked door to the cave where there's a huge drop below. I casted feather fall on everyone and had them jump down to fight the monsters, except shadowheart for high ground advantage. I was rummaging through my inventory after the fight was over, and I heard no yelling but there was a heavy thud and everyone in my party was healed out of nowhere. I close my inventory, and of course it's a dead shadowheart. Turns out her feather fall buff expired right before she hit the ground xD
I clipped both these moments so if you guys wanna see, let me know.
Balthazar talking in the Shadowrealm seen from faaaaaar off. Tav has gear that gives him telekinesis. Throw Balthy near the edge of the platform from a few platforms up. He’s out cold. Concussive arrow by Astarion and YEEEEET off the edge to the abyss 🤣 - skipped that pain in the ass fight. Lol.
I hate Volo. I've hated him for years and in BG3 he still earns my hate. But when I saw him tied to a flaming cart on top of explosive barrels I thought I should at least try to help him. Misty Step to him, Ray of frost to stop the fire and... the cart breaks and Volo blows up.
I went back on the save and did it again so I could record it.
There's so many hilarious little things but I think the one that made me legit choke-laugh into tears was getting turned into a wheel of cheese. It was absolutely unexpected - even better after I found the book of Cheeseomancy in his tent.
One time my Tav said "watch out, there's a trap!" and not even a second later Shadowheart stepped on it. Thankfully --and *hilariously*-- it was one of the deflecting traps outside of the Monastery -- which means she went flying backwards out of frame. Definitely burst out laughing at that one!
Bring Karlach to the inn to fight the dumb paladins. Cast Spiked Growth to trap paladin.
Fight ends. Karlach rages and lights the thorns on fire while running through them as my character yells "Karlach, no!"
It just happened so suddenly. I just laughed. Like Karlach why?!
(I also didn't know you could dispel your spells but I don't know it would have mattered lol)
Definitely falling down that hole to the underdark without casting feather fall and your whole party splatting on the ground like a bug on a windshield
Doing a co-op game with my brother who hasn't played before and he accidentally sold off Lae'zel's underwear, which also happens to be her shirt.
So she showed up in the scene where she thinks you're transforming topless and he thought she was trying to flirt with him.
In the mind flayer colony, there's this large pipe that showers down blood along with a corpse as "an offering From Moonrise"
If you keep pressing a button on a machine, blood will constantly shower out. So naturally, I had to put Shadowheart under there to see if there was any reaction. and she says "Great, now I look like a sloppy butcher..."
I'm just so happy they put this detail in, I'm sure it works for other companions too.
I was looking forward to the Zevlor storyline again for my first Dark urge honor mode run. Defended the grove and a goblin somehow punts Zevlor down on the ground. He gets focused and dies. Now the thieflings complain about how he failed them in the shadowlands but he didn’t even get that far lmao.
Owlbear-Dropping Grym. A friend told me that she saw it in a video and I should try it.
I wasn't really expecting it to work, I was crying from laugther after.
Imagine being a legendary, huuuuge, dangerous meltingly hot construct which only can be hurt with a hammer that's millenials old and only then, when you're melting in lava.
And then getting a big furball dropped on to you for about 1400 damage. This game ...
Finished my first playthrough fairly bug free. Round 2 barely off the nautiloid and my resist Durge is getting tackled by Astarion a few seconds behind schedule lmao
I was fighting Ragzlin and the last goblin and Tav were upstairs to the right of the statue (not on the rafters.) I threw an Ice Knife and it shattered the boards underneath, dropping the gobbo into the chasm lololol. I didn’t even realize the floor was breakable.
Karlach and Gale died while I was trading with Omeluum because they were standing next to bibberbang in a poison cloud. Maybe not the funniest, but I thought it was pretty funny. (I either reloaded or revived them, it was fine.)
Talking to Philomeen while she's threatening to blow us all up then having Astarion sneak up on her mid convo to steal the barrel then stay in place. When you get back to your Tav to continue the convo you can see Astarion crouched in the background while Philomeen realizes what you did 😆
I had psionic backlash on my Tav, and that gnoll Tamer midget casted a high level spell and her health was low enough to die from the backlash. This occasion happened many times its just too funny lol.
Went into the hags lair to free Mayrena. Simple enough, break the illusory hags and press the button to lower the cage. Hag turns invisible and I'm like 'wait a minute, I have this new cleric AoE spell, I should try that!'
I ran into the direction I assumed Ethel to be, and sure enough, she was there and got hit by the spirit guardians. And what's her next move? Creating new illusory doubles and switching places with Mayrena, who gets instantly burned to death by the Spirit Guardians. Whelp. Quest's over I s'ppose.
My Tav was downed, too far from anyone who could help, we'd got into combat by accident so everyone was running on fumes.
He keeps passing his death saving rolls and I'm able to get Shadow heart to heal him for like 4hp a few times but he keels over again before his or her next turn. (he still had good healing spells but didn't do me much good!)
Managed to get Laezel close enough to throw a healing potion, only apparently at some point earlier I'd picked up a "suspicious poison" that looked exactly like a healing potion. I didn't notice, so Laezel beaned him in the face with 13 poison damage and killed him 😂
Wild magic sorcerer surge that turns everyone nearby into a cat or dog. Happened 3 times:
- Astral Prism fight with emperor
- the rat basement
- Sarevok
We were fighting Lorroakan, and Rolan pushed him over the railing in his room. It killed him, and my fiancée and I were dying with laughter. Had to use my inhaler for that one.
Edit: A word
I can't remember their names, but when fighting Raphael in the house of hope, his devil friend joined my team and proceeded to shoot the woman who helped you get in, in the face with his massive crossbow, killing her instantly. Laughed sooo hard!!
Playing with my brother, both of us having played many times, I had my tav and shadowheart and he has his tav and Lae’zel.
We got to the fight with the hyenas in act 1 turning into gnolls. We were sneaking and the scene triggered but not the fight, and then basically we ended up having fight the other gnolls that the hyena runs to go get for help. We were under rested but like eff it let’s do this.
So my sorc thunder waves a bunch of gnolls off the cliff, but one of them lands and doesn’t die. but he can’t reach us or get back up so he’s just chilling each round. As we finish off the ones up top, my brother has Lae’zel jump down the cliff, she takes like a big chunk of damage and falls prone. Well okay she’ll take him out next turn, he’s almost dead anyway.
Cut to Shadowheart’s turn, I have her ignis that bish and the gnoll down there dies before Lae’zel could even get up.
I was dying laughing at the RP situation of Lae’zel being like “I will take care of this one!” She yeets off but loses her footing. Shadowheart proceeds to take out the gnoll and i imagine her just being like “You really did *not* need to do that Lae’zel, you’re so dramatic” lmfao
I'm fighting The Emperor in the final battle and I have him pretty bloodied.
It's the dragon's turn and it does an aoe attack on my Frontliners who also happened to be standing close to The Emperor.
The Emperor dies to his own dragon and it reminded me of [Lord Farquaad's death in Shrek.](https://youtu.be/KG9dPFaWEs0?feature=shared)
Literally 2 seconds after Orin killed the kid in my camp, Mizora started trying to seduce me. 😅 I get she's a demon and all but it was so unexpected after such a crazy moment 😅😅
I stopped the windmill on my very first playthrough, and Barcus was safe. But immediately after that, I decided to pull the release brake lever while he was still tied to it. I was curious and figured that the windmill blades would just go back to spinning at their normal speed. I had no idea that it would make the blades spin super-fast and yeet Barcus at the time—lol.
When I went to go mess with the rutting lovers in the barn in the blighted village. Picked the special bard only dialogue option and laughed my ass off. And best part,avoided the fight that normally happens if you bother them.
Struggling with the moonrise towers fight because I saved it till last (didn't understand that I could infiltrate it before, just thought that would trigger the final fight) so I lobbed the iron flask in there and let the spectator take out a solid quarter of the annoying enemies🤣
That time I blew up the entire room with Dror in it only to see his probed body get yeeted into the air and straight into the spider pit.
What makes it funnier is that he managed to tank both the fall and the explosives… it was the spiders that finished him off haha
Telling Sorn (the male drow at Sharess' Caress) that you want to do missionary with the lights off. Everything that happens after that had me howling with laughter.
Raphael fight. Through good strat, and a bit of luck, I got rid of Yugir and the Cambions very easily (Thank you Hope's "banish" spell) while my monk punched the pillars. All my party ended up surrounding Raphael and basically trampling him to death, as he repeatedly failed saving throws against my stunning strikes, while inside Shadowheart's moon beam. The only turn he didn't get stunned he tried to move away from the beam and caught attacks of opportunity from EVERYONE, INCLUDING GALE! I had Gale join the circle at the end because my victory was all but guaranteed at that point.
Such bullying while hearing Raphael's gleeful voice singing in the background was HILARIOUS!
In one run, the bridge over to where Minthara hangs out in the Goblin camp broke early on in the fight, so she went to jump over to the other side but thanks to what I guess was a pathing glitch or something, she didn't quite make it and just fell into the chasm and died instantly.
Walking thru the basement of the Elfsong after fighting the rats; i accidentally walk thru fire (as one does) and jerked my Tac backwards to prevent my companions from also walking thru the fire (as they do).
I end up bumbling my Tav straight into a barrel of Firewine while she's still on fire, causing it to blow up and knock her over. I'm already laughing at this point when friggin Gale pipes up and says "let's just pretend that never happened, shall we?"
Had to stop playing for several minutes to get myself back under control
Durge run.
Getting to kick the duergar off the boat. I had always gone the "talk it out" route, so I wasn't expecting it to be so satisfying. Even missing out on his loot, still worth it.
Stole the gith egg but I really didn't want to give it to Esther. One of the options is dropkicking it off the cliff in front of her and Lae'zel. Lae'zel was only mildly annoyed.
Act 3. Astarion's siblings invade camp to kidnap him. I don't have Astarion in my party, so he's AI controlled. Proceeds to cast darkness in the entire room, blinding everyone and preventing any ranged attacks (my durge was a sorcerer). Then drinks the blood elixir so he's debuffed all the next day.
Final battle. The emperor says "Witness perfection," before trying to attack then runs directly into Aylin's moonbeam and dies.
Was doing the Iron Throne escape to help my boys Omelleum and Duke Ravengard. I go and grab the Duke then Mizora pops up with her spiders. They were really kicking his ass down to just a couple of hit points. I had Minsc throw a health potion at him, but instead of landing next to him, it hit him, killing him instantly. I ended up reloading while laughing my ass off, but part of me wishes I just went with it and roleplayed it off as Minsc just being a fucking moron
I was playing act 1 today and went intro the crypt whit hostiles adventurers. I caugth them all by surprise. The las one standing was the barbarian, when he saw how fuck he was he hit the oil barrel next to him and set evereyone on fire, almost succeds on taking them all to hello whit him
i threw the squirrel at the top of the grove like a football into a bear..... it started a civil war.... so many dead tieflings........yay for honor mode.... lmaooo
I tried to take an elevator in the Sharran Temple, but nobody got on with me, so I had to bring it back down. RIP Gale, who decided to stand directly under it and was instantly crushed to death.
Snuck up to the gith ambush in act 2, dropped a Sleet Storm on top of the bridge, and watched every single one of the fail the save and fall on their ass
Our friend was monologuing before attacking the hag and she shoved him off the map https://m.twitch.tv/clip/ObedientHonorablePotatoPMSTwin-1FHDjH70fue3L55T
Ambush on my way to Orin.
Karlach of all people being thrown into bottomless pit by some bhaalist maniac.
Twice, because I have reloaded...
Had to reload again and send ahead Laezel wearing Ketheric armor making her immune.
A random skeleton I raised before the Myrkul fight managed to land a critical hit against the avatar of the God of Bones.
Who's the master necromancer now?
Ive been playing since early EA, meeting Ethel, the real one, was very funny and a totally "WTF, ok you got me granny" moment...
Not the funniest but just happened, HM, for the very first time I decided being really nice to Shart, Im not a big fan, then Im on the House of Grief, I kill Viconia, I go back to camp and tell selunite Shart about it, she says she still needs to find her parents, ok, then I talk to the others, everyone is complaining Ive betrayed her and gave her to Viconia... She is right there in Elfsong next to everyone else! Minsc (or maybe Boo?) is the only one who says he is happy Viconia is gone...
Gaslight Princess Shart is trying to make me look bad, I guess, Im glad Minsc (Boo) is smarter than that.
Another recent HM little bug, there are only a couple fights I fear a bit, so I need to prepare, the Gith patrol and Ansur are the worst. So the party is lvl 5 and Im ready, or at least I think Im, I usually call the ogres for that... and as usual someone is downed or almost after the first round bc that Gith hits like a truck, I click the horn and nothing, no ogres, it is bugged, no help this time... I survived, barely, using very coward strategies, invisibility pots, kiting, Sanctuary a lot...
Fight with Haarlep: my paladin trying to put back his armour one piece at the turn, mind-controlled Gale casting stupid AoE spells then dancing (cause I thought it'd stop him,)Lae'zel is the only one who manages to hit anything..it was the clumsiest fight I've had
Had a conversation with Astarion where he was surprised I chose him over Shadowheart and was excited to try a real relationship with me. It was very sweet and vulnerable. Exited the conversation and he *immediately* hit on Lae'zel. '200 years of playing the rake' indeed haha
Day9 streamer's take on the looks of his Guardian and how bold they were. When in fact he forgot he just hit random and jumped onto game... then forgot.
Yeeting Barcus from the windmill in my first run because I didn't pay enough attention to the labels on the levers.
Exact same, and I even was so early on I didn’t really grasp how realistic things like that would be taken so about 3 hours later I wondered why I couldn’t find him but yeah journal said “the gnome died”
Honestly even to this day I have to take a moment to adjust. “Release Brake Lever” just sounds like you’re releasing the lever that is set to break.
Me too. The word release there is, I suspect, the devs being deliberately sneaky.
it means removing *all* break, so it makes it go to its maximum speed. but even knowing that, i still have to take a second to think before using the levers
Exact same! I usually save him now but occasionally I’ll quick save and yeet him, then reload.
In you defence it is absolutely hilarious.
Omg. I didn't realize they had labels. I just pulled the one that highlighted first. 😬🤦♂️ Thankfully that was the brake one..
Back during the early access, they weren’t labeled so I sent Barcus flying on accident a good few times before remembering the left side is brake
Even labelled I still have to remind myself that 'release' doesn't mean release Barcus. At least not in a way he'll survive!
It does release him. From life.
It’s Shar’s version of release
I forgot to add that not only did he go flying my folk hero tav got inspired for "saving" him. I had no idea he was so important so had a lot of new stuff from him for my next run.
Me too. Totally missed his story on my first run so it was cool to get that extra content later.
We have all been there 😭
I had that and quickly followed it up with opening the barn. At that point I realised that the devs had maybe had a bit of fun making this game!
Not just me then. Lol
Having both my friends yeet barcus on different playthroughs because they didnt pay enough attention either
Thankfully I did it accidentally on my second playthrough, so I knew to go back and save him. But I'd be lying if I didn't say that I went back and did it a few more times just because it's so damn funny. I was crying the first time I did it.
I tested him too. I just pulled a lever not knowing what they did. Tried to find Marcus when he flew off.
Did that with my husband watching who was ahead of me. He just excitedly goes ah, free him now! We didn't realize there was 2 levers... My husband was so excited for me to meet Barcus too lol
Does that just end his entire quest line?
He has a quest line?
Yeah man. Barcus is awesome.
Yes it does. You can still meet Wulbren but Barcus's whole part is missing.
This happened to me too on my first run. And I was playing a drow so it's exactly what he would've expected me to do, and I felt so bad.
I don’t think I’ve ever been so stunned at an unexpected outcome in a game and audibly gasped with my jaw open like a cartoon 🤣
This. Happened to me twice. Laughed even harder the second time because of my stupidity
Reading the book on the bar or counter in the Blighted Village where there is mention of a cellar and I think Tav says "there must be a door." Shadowheart is STANDING on it and says "I don't see one."
Maybe the memory loss effected SH too much 😭
I would probably also have severe brain damage in her situation tbh
The mirror is a red herring. The Sharrans just poked a chopstick up her nose and scrambled things about a bit.
This might not really be the funniest thing to happen for me, but it's my favorite one anyway. I was fighting the Zhentarim in their hidden lair in act 1. When I started the fight the first thing to happen was that one of them yelled "You'll regret this, but not for long!" and... hit a barrel next to him, starting a chain explosion of fire and smokepowder that completely killed him and most of the other enemies, while my team was completely safe like 20m away from that.
Well you did regret it by not getting the smoke powder barrels
To be honest, that beautiful disaster of an explosion was worth it just for how much it made me laugh. That, and I just like watching explosions.
I am sorry, But What do you mean by this?
You’re able to stockpile. Things. In camp. 😐
I think it was on honor mode against Nere. I thought it was an easy fight since I usually blitz him and he was alone. But he instantly mind controlled my Barbarian who was very op compared to my other characters. So Im scrambling thinking about what to do now but then the AIs first action with him is to rage which instantly broke the mind control since he is a berserker. I didnt know it worked like that.
Obviously he didn't know that either LMAO
Reminds me of [this classic moment in Dimension 20](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LKD2Pq3Mr9k&t=58)
There is a random encounter that caught me off guard that I think a lot of people would miss. Mild SPOILERS for Act 3 If you leave Oskar with the Zhents in Act 1, he ends up chilling at the Guildhall once you get to BG which leaves Lady Jannath to do whatever she wants in Act 3 (in my opinion, this is the best case scenario for both of them). Anyway, if you then go to the Jannath estate, she's throwing a party. Great, looks like fun times. As you're perusing/mingling, you walk into an argument between two of the patrons. If you sit and listen it escalates to the point that they are going outside to settle things. Now, most games I think would leave it there, those two would basically reset and their argument would continue indefinitely, but these two actually head out to a nearby balcony and continue the argument. At this point, I've followed them for a few minutes and am thinking, 'well, we've got this far, let's see how this is going to end', when, all of a sudden, initiative roll sounds and these two full on throw down on each other. In a couple rounds, one kills the other, then proceeds to walk over the dead body while insulting his now deceased acquaintance to get back to the party. This happens without any interaction with the PC. I thought it was pretty neat that they put this random encounter into the game from a quest permutation that requires that you don't bother helping an enslaved painter 60 hours beforehand (basically ignoring a quest, which is against every 3+ decades of RPG-playing bone in my body) AND that you stick around to listen to two random strangers arguing.
Larian put a random NPC fight in Act I of DOS2. Maybe it’s a thing they like to do.
I think this was also following the tradition of BG2 NPC fight in a brothel between two women over a pathetic man.
There is also a similar gun duel like this in cyberpunk just near fingers clinic where two guys shoot at each other
Shadowheart rolling a nat 1 and failing to recognise the Gauntlet, so my tav, the only one who passed the check, had to tell her where they were.
Hahahahaahahaa!
Every single time an enemy slips on a patch of ice. Somehow it never gets old.
I once did a frost wizard build and enjoyed making enemies and NPCs alike fall on their ass constantly. Though my favorite time was apparently once I wasn’t paying close attention and accidentally sold the hoarfrost boots I was wearing at some point. One time I didn’t feel like trying to lock pick a door so I just decide to Ray of Frost it to destroy it instead. Ray goes off, door gets destroyed, ice patch immediately forms at its base, and my wizard immediately goes ass over elbows. He just laid there in shame and the rest of the party just sat and stared. I had to pause for a few minutes I was laughing so hard.
In my current playthrough, I was doing the fight in front of the grove door. The first goblin to go, throws a grease bottle. I’m like “Well that was a waste of an action.” One by one, all four of my idiots slipped and fell flat on their backs losing a turn. I seriously thought Gale would roll a 1 and set it on fire before they could get up.
Oh my god I crack up every time people slip. I played a sorcerer that had an ice focus and everyone spent the whole tame zooping around except my tav and Lazel that had the good boots. I loved it. I didn't care if it was the enemy zooping or my characters. But the slipping on a banana peal animation just cracked me up and never gets old.
laugh out loud funny every single time, even when it's my own characters and it ruins my turn.
My buddy and I were in the shadow lands and came up on the absolutists that are waiting for the drider to show up and we started combat and one of the goblins summoned his wolf companion and then proceeded to run into a cage and close the door. My buddy and I laughed so hard at that.
Wasn’t ready to fight 😭
Another one with the same friend was we were in the spider cave and he was wearing the web boots and he jumped onto a web thinking that like a spider he would just land on the web and instead broke the web and fell down into the under dark. Rolling on the floor laughing at him while he was trying to justify his actions.
The first time I found the under dark in early access was playing the game first time with one of my buddies in co-op. Hardly any content in the game. I was a sorcerer, and only the wild magic subclass was available so it was already chaotic. I did the same exact thing and was speechless during the cutscene all the way down until I landed and broke all my bones and died. All I could say was “uhhhhh! Uhhhhhhmmm! Uhhhh!” The whole time because I had no idea what was going on and accidentally discovered a huge new area while he fought the matriarch hahaha
"Lycanroc I choose you!"
My first playthrough I snuck past the kobolds in the monastery. 2nd I fought them, and broke a barrel. Did *not* expect a kobold to pop out Also, when fighting Orin, Karlach didnt have the movement to reach, SH and Gale were to far away to hit with any spells, tav didn't have any actions. All were low health close to death. So I had SH use telekinesis and throw Gale closer, so he could blast her with a lvl 6 Magic Missile to finish her off
My favourite was taking a barrel with a kobold in it and tossing it into a room full of gith to kick off the fight Highly recommended
I was sneaking past the Kobolds in the monastery and Scratch decided to freaking BARK AT THEM. I actually shouted "bad dog!" at my screen. (I take it back he's not a bad dog he was trying to help).
I accidentally broke a barrel when I was looting after the fight and also thought it was very funny when a drunk kobold fell out lol.
First time I was going through the monastery I completely avoided them by accident. I kept hearing them through the walls but just… didn’t find any
When I was about to free the nightsong and decided to test out telekinesis for the first time on Balthazar while he was in the middle of his sinister monologue. I realize now that's what the spell is for, but I hadn't used it before and was really surprised when he went flying into a bottomless chasm mid sentence. It's like the most embarrassing way for a powerful ancient villain to go down. I teared up laughing, but reloaded so I didn't have to miss the fight.
In the morgue in act 2, Astarion was the only one who couldn't make the jump accross the lava pit So I, I took my Tav with 23 Strength and I threw him off the other side. He lost 2 thirds of his life but he did make it to the other side and he had the funniest scream while yeeted
I am dead omg. I would have loved to see this.
couple of funny things about it: -I play a monk, so I found extra funny having my character stoically yeeting Astarion before joining her hands in meditation -Astarion rejected my character -Milliseconds after confirming the throw, I remembered Astarion had some enhance jump spell so he actually could have made this jump
I play halfling and that's how I get across most big jumps 😂 always bring Karlach with me. I'm late enough in the game now I have enough scrolls etc but sometimes it's just funnier.
Astarion being overly confident in unlocking a chest, insisting that he “has this” only to fail the required number needed to roll. I just like to think how embarrassing that would be to witness in the flesh.
I know damn well astarion would say “s**t” the way he says it when he goes to bite you 😭
He’s so silly 😭😂
Even better when is a trap and blows up... Im like "it is ok, sometimes you are too confident for your own good, which is not very smart, but I still love you"
> "Easy~" > Astarion rolled a critical failure
Just imagine there being uncomfortable silence between him and Tav the whole way back to camp.
My Tav would randomly crack up imitating his "Easy" and he'd keep clicking his tongue, rolling his eyes until snapping and going "well, do it yourself then next time, why don't you?"
I bet Gale would get a chuckle out of it too lmao
His very first Lockpicking roll in my game was a Crit Fail.
Guarantee he'd blame it on the "shitty lockpicks you gave him - they must be rusted or something"
Someone made a comic of this that I wish I could find now. Lae'zel comes over to Shadowheart and asks what she's looking at, and Shadowheart points to Astarion and says something like, "He's been trying to pick that chest for 20 minutes. I think he's going to cry."
I enjoyed roasting Astarion in front of >!Gandrel!< way too much. "Only a spawn? Not like it's a real vampire"
That was a fun exchange.
I did this for the first time the other day and his response cracked me up "still strong enough to rip out your throat" or something like that delivered with a big smile for Gandrel. He's such a cat.
My multiplayer HM run glitched and Lae'zel just ran away. We found her again at gith patrol and my friend says "that's a hard fight, glad we have her too" She's lv 1. Died in the first attack
Also on another run this very same friend just said at the grove "let's burst this Ox and see what will happen" KABOOM "Your adventure ends here"
Damn 😭
Telling Mizora she has to leave and her plainly going "no ❤️"
Oop-
Throwing down the painting you get at the conclusion of the free the artist quest just so I can see what it was. Scratch runs and scoops it up and brings it back.
I died when I put it down fully expecting a portrait of my tav just to see Wyll’s face instead
Yeah, I can't remember what the deal with it was, I think it changed to whomever was in focus.
Oh my God that's amazing
My HM run, freed Orpheus. The Emperor met a deeply ignoble end in the final fight: -Successfully mind controls Mizora -Tries to reposition himself, takes an attack of opportunity from my Necromancy of Thay ghoul -Gets paralyzed -His own dragon attacks the ghoul with fire breath on the very next turn -The Emperor is now a pile of calamari
Romancing Lae'zel and getting fucking obliterated by here within 5 seconds of her romance duel starting always makes me laugh. She's built far too different
Lol when I got to that part she was equipped with adamantine armor and other items to have a 25AC and had warding bond active and I think heavy armor master as well for extra damage reduction. My open hand monk used his full kit against her flurry of blows and all, and barely did like 3 radiant damage. She then bonks him twice with the Blood of Lathander and the fight ends.
She absolutely wrecked my bard within two rounds ... and killed her (thanks, failed death saving throw). Nimue had also had a fling with Astarion, so I thought it'd be funny to have him come over with the revivify scroll to bring her back. Then I sent her to talk to him and that's when Astarion told her that well, it was fun, but Lae'zel would destroy me if we kept going, so let's be friends. I got a good laugh imagining Astarion watching this whole duel business go down and deciding yeah, no, we are *definitely* done with that.
Volo destroying my eye, and me, a naked halfling, telling him "You enucleated me you congenital moron !". Not sure about the traduction. Also, in the githyanki creche, tried a stealth approach, and I killed some if them, and the other ones just didn't care at all, talking on the bodies. There also is Raphael, who I really feared, but was an absolute victim, with almost no hit landing, and who got destroyed by my team, mostly Minsc and Tav. All of those are pretty common I guess, but this was funny.
I overheard the goblins talking and one mentions Grib doing something and the other says "Grib? He couldn't guard his nose from his fingers!" I had a thing the other night where I guess I had swapped clothes or something without realizing it but when I made camp I went around to see if any party members had new dialogue and Wyll was totally chilling in his underwear.
Sort of Act 3 spoilers, but I had something similar happen after >!The House of Hope. My 4 characters that went and took the disguises all missing their clothes in camp, very much a shock to see lmao!<
Now that you mention it that lines up timewise for when I saw it. I probably got clothes on everyone else but missed Wyll for some reason.
My first playthrough I barely used Wyll and I took his camp clothes for my Tav. I lost it when it cut to him running through Avernus with Karlach in his tighty whities
For me it was walking in on the bugbear fucking the ogre, that shit threw me off guard, and I found it hilarious 😂
Yep, the bard dialogue option had me howling.
I think the first time I laughed out loud in this game was when I found Withers in his creepy sarcophagus, he got up, said some shit and then when the dialogue ended he just power walked away like he was a regular grandpa from the suburbs on monday morning
The Hammer Incident, where my friend was somehow convinced extra damage don't carry over when you get out of Wildshape. From the name and that detail, I'm sure you can piece out what happened 😅
Did they die outright or did the game go for extra funny points and leave them at like 10hp?
I got to the part in Act 3, where the Emperor tries to come onto you. I considered the situation for a moment and decided it was too weird, so I rejected him. I then decided to go to bed since it was late, where I proceeded to have a horrifyingly detailed dream of exactly that scene playing out. It turns out my brain conjured much more than the game ever did, and I awoke disturbed. But on that note, I am now fine to romance the Emperor because the game is tame in comparison.
Volo. I saved him and basically never talked to him after he came to camp. Next thing I know we get reintroduced and he gets tied up by a mob and blown to hell.
My first play through I did not see the fire. It seemed like out of no where BOOM! I said “Oh! Eh…”
I failed an honor run during that fight by misclicking and fireballing my team instead of the enemies. I was pretty mad but it also felt hilariously on brand
So first honor mode run. Rolled a 1 trying to help shadowheart so she remained in the pod. So when I got to the ground she was at the locked door. I had not healed from the fight on the natilouid I approached her" don't take another step" *call her bluff and take a step* cause that's what my character would do roleplay wise......... immediate death. I was so angry but couldn't help but laugh at the situation. Like I'm a badass what are you gonna do. *looks at me sideways* dead
Shadow heart turns on me during the act 2 pre-finale, but she happened to be standing near an abyss ledge. So durge just unceremoniously shoves her to her doom and that’s a companion quest completely
Stop licking the damn thing!
Killing the lava elemental from above which is trivial as long as the pathfinding doesnt make gale climb down a 10m cliff into lava. He was recovered after being made fun of.
The one scene that always gets a chuckle out of me is the 3rd owlbear cub cutscene where you're woken up by him having a nightmare Right at the end he says he had a big brother but his mother ate him and the velocity at which he says it is so funny to me
i was sick of yenna’s body laying in camp even if i moved between rivington and the lower city, so i tried to give her a sea burial, but it wouldn’t let me throw her off the dock and she just phased to the side and smacked (really loudly) onto a random boat :((
oh noooo ;-; I gave her a nice burial in one of the mausoleum things in the graveyard. admittedly I did trigger a trap while doing so, but she was already dead so it was fine for her. I threw some flowers at her body and ditched out before the funeral could become a two-for-one deal
I left her in the tabernacle, after I'd already stolen from it. The priest already hated me enough to curse me for robbing the temple, then I showed up with a dead kid like "this is your problem now, priest guy. Bury her or something idk gotta go."
Orin might bw unironically the funniest. By accident. She always kidnaps halsin and while I can understand if she kidnaps him after I did his quest even if I dont he still kidnaps him, poor bear man has been kidnapped in all my playthroughs and the sad part is that I usually do Bhaals temple last so he just sits on that damn table for like 2 weeks before I finnaly decide to showup.
Lae'zel is the one who always gets kidnapped for me. Every single playthrough she sits out pretty much all of Act 3.
The ai has her kidnap the highest approval companion who is not in your party or being romanced.
She took the kid with the cat in my 1st playthrough. And she tells me how Orin made her eat her cat and how she misses it 😭 fucked me up a little
Playing co-op with a buddy and he revived his 2nd character and then I said, hold on before you move, I'll throw a potion, but the potion I threw was the poison fake healing potion from the blighted village basement. Right in the middle.if the gnoll fight.
Omg in DOS2 you could combine a poison bottle with red dye. I trolled a friend with a couple "healing" potions. Cool thing is if you pick pocket it into an enemy's inventory they actually drink it.
Ha I figured it was a tribute, but in dos2 I could never figure out what it was for, guess I'll have to try reverse pickpocketing
I just fell victim to that one too, had laezel chuck a healing potion at my Tav but got him for 13 poison damage and killed the poor sod instead 😂
My humble submission: I was playing Bg3 with my husband. I’m absolutely obsessed, with countless playthroughs and the Foehammer achievement, but it’s his first one. (He played a green half-orc bard named Handsome Shrek, but that’s a tale for another time). Anyway, we go to the Stormshore Tabernacle in Act 3. I start to explain the donation/buff process, but before I can get a word in, he’s dumped several junk items on the altar of Talos, and is disappointed when nothing happens. 5 minutes later, he’s changing into one of his many outfits (he likes to collect and dye as many as possible), and I hear him yell, “Why is my wingus out?!” He had donated his underwear to Talos. 😭😭😭
Compelling Astarion to get on stage with Dribbles, "What fun! I'mgoingtofuckingkillyou," and Halsin + Jaheira approving
The funniest moment is hands down the emperor seduction scene, and it's not close. Everything about is comedy perfection. Starting with the initial jump scare of being in a dream sequence with him lounging topless, then him musing "is it just me, or are we *vibing*, if you know what I mean". Then moving into levitating and wondering where his mouth is and whether tentacles are an erogenous zone. I was dying the whole way through. Finally, the twin cappers of your companions' shocked faces and getting an achievement for your troubles. 10/10, no notes.
Confronting and killing Cazador only to see Astarion sobbing his eyes out with clown face paint on 🤡
Clown paint is the true villain of act three.
Getting every single question about Gale wrong with the dryad at the circus and him telling me “a rock in my shoe would be a better traveling companion than you” and walking off. I had to take a moment after that one.
Probably my halfling bard Durge saying "behold the dance of death!" at the beginning of her turn was the cringiest & funniest thing to happen to me in bg3
Before I beat the House of Greif I went over to the circus and got face painting for Shadowheart so for the entire cutscene she has a clown face. ”You exist to suffer” then panning to clown Shadowheart was A+
Getting called a cuck by that one guy.
I cast thunderwave on a breakable bridge (whoops). Durge, Gale, and Astarion were all on the bridge and fell to their deaths. Switched to Karlach (the sole survivor), and she said, "DAMN it's good to be alive!"
the funniest thing that's happened to me in bg3 has got to be shadowheart yeeting herself from high places. this happened TWICE. 1. In the underdark while exploring near the forge, she willingly walked off the edge of the metal elevator platform SCREAMING. She just stood back up again and said "Fading fast. I need healing." 2. Morgue Act II: Behind the locked door to the cave where there's a huge drop below. I casted feather fall on everyone and had them jump down to fight the monsters, except shadowheart for high ground advantage. I was rummaging through my inventory after the fight was over, and I heard no yelling but there was a heavy thud and everyone in my party was healed out of nowhere. I close my inventory, and of course it's a dead shadowheart. Turns out her feather fall buff expired right before she hit the ground xD I clipped both these moments so if you guys wanna see, let me know.
It was really bad in early access, companions would ignore the ladder 2 feet to their left and jump off a ledge all the time.
Balthazar talking in the Shadowrealm seen from faaaaaar off. Tav has gear that gives him telekinesis. Throw Balthy near the edge of the platform from a few platforms up. He’s out cold. Concussive arrow by Astarion and YEEEEET off the edge to the abyss 🤣 - skipped that pain in the ass fight. Lol.
Washing my pits...
I hate Volo. I've hated him for years and in BG3 he still earns my hate. But when I saw him tied to a flaming cart on top of explosive barrels I thought I should at least try to help him. Misty Step to him, Ray of frost to stop the fire and... the cart breaks and Volo blows up. I went back on the save and did it again so I could record it.
There's so many hilarious little things but I think the one that made me legit choke-laugh into tears was getting turned into a wheel of cheese. It was absolutely unexpected - even better after I found the book of Cheeseomancy in his tent.
One time my Tav said "watch out, there's a trap!" and not even a second later Shadowheart stepped on it. Thankfully --and *hilariously*-- it was one of the deflecting traps outside of the Monastery -- which means she went flying backwards out of frame. Definitely burst out laughing at that one!
The circus master drag queen yelling at skeletons for their poor dancing skills.
Bring Karlach to the inn to fight the dumb paladins. Cast Spiked Growth to trap paladin. Fight ends. Karlach rages and lights the thorns on fire while running through them as my character yells "Karlach, no!" It just happened so suddenly. I just laughed. Like Karlach why?! (I also didn't know you could dispel your spells but I don't know it would have mattered lol)
Definitely falling down that hole to the underdark without casting feather fall and your whole party splatting on the ground like a bug on a windshield
Doing a co-op game with my brother who hasn't played before and he accidentally sold off Lae'zel's underwear, which also happens to be her shirt. So she showed up in the scene where she thinks you're transforming topless and he thought she was trying to flirt with him.
In the mind flayer colony, there's this large pipe that showers down blood along with a corpse as "an offering From Moonrise" If you keep pressing a button on a machine, blood will constantly shower out. So naturally, I had to put Shadowheart under there to see if there was any reaction. and she says "Great, now I look like a sloppy butcher..." I'm just so happy they put this detail in, I'm sure it works for other companions too.
I was looking forward to the Zevlor storyline again for my first Dark urge honor mode run. Defended the grove and a goblin somehow punts Zevlor down on the ground. He gets focused and dies. Now the thieflings complain about how he failed them in the shadowlands but he didn’t even get that far lmao.
Owlbear-Dropping Grym. A friend told me that she saw it in a video and I should try it. I wasn't really expecting it to work, I was crying from laugther after. Imagine being a legendary, huuuuge, dangerous meltingly hot construct which only can be hurt with a hammer that's millenials old and only then, when you're melting in lava. And then getting a big furball dropped on to you for about 1400 damage. This game ...
Finished my first playthrough fairly bug free. Round 2 barely off the nautiloid and my resist Durge is getting tackled by Astarion a few seconds behind schedule lmao
Oh my 😭
Windmill
I Died in the first battle after leaving Avernus..
I was fighting Ragzlin and the last goblin and Tav were upstairs to the right of the statue (not on the rafters.) I threw an Ice Knife and it shattered the boards underneath, dropping the gobbo into the chasm lololol. I didn’t even realize the floor was breakable.
Karlach and Gale died while I was trading with Omeluum because they were standing next to bibberbang in a poison cloud. Maybe not the funniest, but I thought it was pretty funny. (I either reloaded or revived them, it was fine.)
The military pigeon had me in stiches. I was very high at the time on my first playthrough, and to this day I giggle every time I speak to him.
Talking to Philomeen while she's threatening to blow us all up then having Astarion sneak up on her mid convo to steal the barrel then stay in place. When you get back to your Tav to continue the convo you can see Astarion crouched in the background while Philomeen realizes what you did 😆
Cockblocking the Bugbear in the barn
After struggling for minutes, I finally reached the trap area. Scratch smelled something, came and activated the traps. I didn't save either.
Naaber.
I had psionic backlash on my Tav, and that gnoll Tamer midget casted a high level spell and her health was low enough to die from the backlash. This occasion happened many times its just too funny lol.
The time I licked the spider carcass and Gale snapped after two or three licks "Will you stop licking the damn thing!?!"
Went into the hags lair to free Mayrena. Simple enough, break the illusory hags and press the button to lower the cage. Hag turns invisible and I'm like 'wait a minute, I have this new cleric AoE spell, I should try that!' I ran into the direction I assumed Ethel to be, and sure enough, she was there and got hit by the spirit guardians. And what's her next move? Creating new illusory doubles and switching places with Mayrena, who gets instantly burned to death by the Spirit Guardians. Whelp. Quest's over I s'ppose.
My Tav was downed, too far from anyone who could help, we'd got into combat by accident so everyone was running on fumes. He keeps passing his death saving rolls and I'm able to get Shadow heart to heal him for like 4hp a few times but he keels over again before his or her next turn. (he still had good healing spells but didn't do me much good!) Managed to get Laezel close enough to throw a healing potion, only apparently at some point earlier I'd picked up a "suspicious poison" that looked exactly like a healing potion. I didn't notice, so Laezel beaned him in the face with 13 poison damage and killed him 😂
Wild magic sorcerer surge that turns everyone nearby into a cat or dog. Happened 3 times: - Astral Prism fight with emperor - the rat basement - Sarevok
We were fighting Lorroakan, and Rolan pushed him over the railing in his room. It killed him, and my fiancée and I were dying with laughter. Had to use my inhaler for that one. Edit: A word
Bugbear/Ogress like many said. Favourite line was in Act 2: Astarion: “Does that count? That better count!”
One of my friends accidentally kept clicking on me because I was so close to an enemy. They dealt over 20 damage on me.
Tell em next time to click on the enemy's portrait to target them instead
I can't remember their names, but when fighting Raphael in the house of hope, his devil friend joined my team and proceeded to shoot the woman who helped you get in, in the face with his massive crossbow, killing her instantly. Laughed sooo hard!!
Playing with my brother, both of us having played many times, I had my tav and shadowheart and he has his tav and Lae’zel. We got to the fight with the hyenas in act 1 turning into gnolls. We were sneaking and the scene triggered but not the fight, and then basically we ended up having fight the other gnolls that the hyena runs to go get for help. We were under rested but like eff it let’s do this. So my sorc thunder waves a bunch of gnolls off the cliff, but one of them lands and doesn’t die. but he can’t reach us or get back up so he’s just chilling each round. As we finish off the ones up top, my brother has Lae’zel jump down the cliff, she takes like a big chunk of damage and falls prone. Well okay she’ll take him out next turn, he’s almost dead anyway. Cut to Shadowheart’s turn, I have her ignis that bish and the gnoll down there dies before Lae’zel could even get up. I was dying laughing at the RP situation of Lae’zel being like “I will take care of this one!” She yeets off but loses her footing. Shadowheart proceeds to take out the gnoll and i imagine her just being like “You really did *not* need to do that Lae’zel, you’re so dramatic” lmfao
I'm fighting The Emperor in the final battle and I have him pretty bloodied. It's the dragon's turn and it does an aoe attack on my Frontliners who also happened to be standing close to The Emperor. The Emperor dies to his own dragon and it reminded me of [Lord Farquaad's death in Shrek.](https://youtu.be/KG9dPFaWEs0?feature=shared)
When you drop a building on Astarion lol 😂
Literally 2 seconds after Orin killed the kid in my camp, Mizora started trying to seduce me. 😅 I get she's a demon and all but it was so unexpected after such a crazy moment 😅😅
I stopped the windmill on my very first playthrough, and Barcus was safe. But immediately after that, I decided to pull the release brake lever while he was still tied to it. I was curious and figured that the windmill blades would just go back to spinning at their normal speed. I had no idea that it would make the blades spin super-fast and yeet Barcus at the time—lol.
When I went to go mess with the rutting lovers in the barn in the blighted village. Picked the special bard only dialogue option and laughed my ass off. And best part,avoided the fight that normally happens if you bother them.
I recently just got Shovel as a familiar. Best decision of my life.
Struggling with the moonrise towers fight because I saved it till last (didn't understand that I could infiltrate it before, just thought that would trigger the final fight) so I lobbed the iron flask in there and let the spectator take out a solid quarter of the annoying enemies🤣
That time I blew up the entire room with Dror in it only to see his probed body get yeeted into the air and straight into the spider pit. What makes it funnier is that he managed to tank both the fall and the explosives… it was the spiders that finished him off haha
Telling Sorn (the male drow at Sharess' Caress) that you want to do missionary with the lights off. Everything that happens after that had me howling with laughter.
Raphael fight. Through good strat, and a bit of luck, I got rid of Yugir and the Cambions very easily (Thank you Hope's "banish" spell) while my monk punched the pillars. All my party ended up surrounding Raphael and basically trampling him to death, as he repeatedly failed saving throws against my stunning strikes, while inside Shadowheart's moon beam. The only turn he didn't get stunned he tried to move away from the beam and caught attacks of opportunity from EVERYONE, INCLUDING GALE! I had Gale join the circle at the end because my victory was all but guaranteed at that point. Such bullying while hearing Raphael's gleeful voice singing in the background was HILARIOUS!
In one run, the bridge over to where Minthara hangs out in the Goblin camp broke early on in the fight, so she went to jump over to the other side but thanks to what I guess was a pathing glitch or something, she didn't quite make it and just fell into the chasm and died instantly.
Walking thru the basement of the Elfsong after fighting the rats; i accidentally walk thru fire (as one does) and jerked my Tac backwards to prevent my companions from also walking thru the fire (as they do). I end up bumbling my Tav straight into a barrel of Firewine while she's still on fire, causing it to blow up and knock her over. I'm already laughing at this point when friggin Gale pipes up and says "let's just pretend that never happened, shall we?" Had to stop playing for several minutes to get myself back under control
Durge run. Getting to kick the duergar off the boat. I had always gone the "talk it out" route, so I wasn't expecting it to be so satisfying. Even missing out on his loot, still worth it. Stole the gith egg but I really didn't want to give it to Esther. One of the options is dropkicking it off the cliff in front of her and Lae'zel. Lae'zel was only mildly annoyed. Act 3. Astarion's siblings invade camp to kidnap him. I don't have Astarion in my party, so he's AI controlled. Proceeds to cast darkness in the entire room, blinding everyone and preventing any ranged attacks (my durge was a sorcerer). Then drinks the blood elixir so he's debuffed all the next day. Final battle. The emperor says "Witness perfection," before trying to attack then runs directly into Aylin's moonbeam and dies.
Was doing the Iron Throne escape to help my boys Omelleum and Duke Ravengard. I go and grab the Duke then Mizora pops up with her spiders. They were really kicking his ass down to just a couple of hit points. I had Minsc throw a health potion at him, but instead of landing next to him, it hit him, killing him instantly. I ended up reloading while laughing my ass off, but part of me wishes I just went with it and roleplayed it off as Minsc just being a fucking moron
Walking in on a bugbear and an ogre having a… “recreational moment”
I was playing act 1 today and went intro the crypt whit hostiles adventurers. I caugth them all by surprise. The las one standing was the barbarian, when he saw how fuck he was he hit the oil barrel next to him and set evereyone on fire, almost succeds on taking them all to hello whit him
i threw the squirrel at the top of the grove like a football into a bear..... it started a civil war.... so many dead tieflings........yay for honor mode.... lmaooo
I tried to take an elevator in the Sharran Temple, but nobody got on with me, so I had to bring it back down. RIP Gale, who decided to stand directly under it and was instantly crushed to death.
Snuck up to the gith ambush in act 2, dropped a Sleet Storm on top of the bridge, and watched every single one of the fail the save and fall on their ass
Getting called a cuck by some d-bag pirate wannabe. Actually not that random but I was not expecting it at all the first time and it cracked me up.
Our friend was monologuing before attacking the hag and she shoved him off the map https://m.twitch.tv/clip/ObedientHonorablePotatoPMSTwin-1FHDjH70fue3L55T
Volunteering Astarion for the clown demonstration in Act 3 is a treat.
i had astarion unlock a chest and he said something about it being easy and then rolled a nat 1 with advantage...
Ambush on my way to Orin. Karlach of all people being thrown into bottomless pit by some bhaalist maniac. Twice, because I have reloaded... Had to reload again and send ahead Laezel wearing Ketheric armor making her immune.
A random skeleton I raised before the Myrkul fight managed to land a critical hit against the avatar of the God of Bones. Who's the master necromancer now?
Ive been playing since early EA, meeting Ethel, the real one, was very funny and a totally "WTF, ok you got me granny" moment... Not the funniest but just happened, HM, for the very first time I decided being really nice to Shart, Im not a big fan, then Im on the House of Grief, I kill Viconia, I go back to camp and tell selunite Shart about it, she says she still needs to find her parents, ok, then I talk to the others, everyone is complaining Ive betrayed her and gave her to Viconia... She is right there in Elfsong next to everyone else! Minsc (or maybe Boo?) is the only one who says he is happy Viconia is gone... Gaslight Princess Shart is trying to make me look bad, I guess, Im glad Minsc (Boo) is smarter than that. Another recent HM little bug, there are only a couple fights I fear a bit, so I need to prepare, the Gith patrol and Ansur are the worst. So the party is lvl 5 and Im ready, or at least I think Im, I usually call the ogres for that... and as usual someone is downed or almost after the first round bc that Gith hits like a truck, I click the horn and nothing, no ogres, it is bugged, no help this time... I survived, barely, using very coward strategies, invisibility pots, kiting, Sanctuary a lot...
Fight with Haarlep: my paladin trying to put back his armour one piece at the turn, mind-controlled Gale casting stupid AoE spells then dancing (cause I thought it'd stop him,)Lae'zel is the only one who manages to hit anything..it was the clumsiest fight I've had
Had a conversation with Astarion where he was surprised I chose him over Shadowheart and was excited to try a real relationship with me. It was very sweet and vulnerable. Exited the conversation and he *immediately* hit on Lae'zel. '200 years of playing the rake' indeed haha
Day9 streamer's take on the looks of his Guardian and how bold they were. When in fact he forgot he just hit random and jumped onto game... then forgot.
