My Dark Urge Barbarian is a role play of Krieg the Psycho, from one of my favorite games. It is on Tactician Difficulty, none of my party members wear chest armor, we only use the Salami Club or a weapon with identical stats, as well as using anything that is in our inventory (throwing barrels, boxes, weapons, anything we can toss). No direct damage offensive spells allowed (ex firebolt, sacred flame, guding bolt, etc).
Cheesy and Ridiculous strategies with a heavy role play focus.

Let's talk about spoilers... This video has a LOT of Act 1 spoilers (cinematics, fights, dialogues) and DARK URGE spoilers. I added timestamps that detail EXACTLY where the Dark Urge Spoilers are (4:40, 8:05, 9:18, 12:29, 18:22). From 1:22-1:31 in the intro and at 6:00-6:05 there's video footage of minor dark urge spoilers. The entire video is a full act 1 playthrough in logical progression order. PLEASE make sure you're okay with this before watching the video. You can only experience BG3 for the first time once. Make sure you do it the way you want. And then come watch this video, I'm super proud of it and I think you're gonna love it
From 18:22 onwards, I receive a Dark Urge story item that I use for the rest of the video. In my opinion, knowing about this item won't really spoil anything for you, but if you don't want to know about it, stop watching at 18:22 and come back when you're ready :)

Thank you for the hard work! 0:27-. I love the commemtary and the voice you do for Creag☺️♥️! Might have butchered the name♥️😅. Your fighting tactics remind me of a movie where people use watermelon as a weapon against the enemies.
@@Mei_mcz I wish I could take credit for the voice acting, but I'm actually terrible at voice impersonation. EVERY Krieg voiceline is pulled DIRECTLY from Borderlands. I just inserted them in places that made sense or I thought would be funny. Plus since they weren't me it gives me some small deniability for the more inappropriate ones 😅
Pin this 😊
@@josephlink4173 oh gosh I thought it was pinned. Huge fail. Maybe it unpinned when I edited it to include more specific time stamps
the idea of Astarion being a Salami monk is hilarious
If only he could sneak attack with a salami 🤣
The Dark Urge is like "Woah, calm down there psycho."
with Krieg, the dark urge is the voice of reason
This video highlights how much role play potential this game really has!! The fact you could go in with such a ridiculous concept for a character, make decisions they would, and input voicelines that made sense from a totally different game/world is WILD. Great vid!! Would love to see another ◡̈
Yeah I'm SUPER excited to see people like the concept! It'll be fun trying to bring my favorite characters to life in BG3 playthroughs.
This one took a lot of energy to make (LOTS of planning...) so my next video will probably be just a touch more relaxed before I do another heavy roleplay one.
Krieg is hands down my favorite character in the borderlands universe. At surface level he just seems like a joke character, a character that just yells nothing but absurdities just like every other psycho enemy in all the games. But then you catch a voice line of his subconscious(?) or his original self(?) and you realize there's more to this character than just his psychotic rambles.
Well I hope you feel like I did him justice with the roleplay, because he's definitely in the top 3 for me, quite possibly my favorite if you forced me to pick.
I know nothing about Borderlands but from this video, he seems very fun xD
The mysterious 1d4 is from Tavern Brawler, which adds 1d4 to all damage on thrown weapons, including elemental.
Oooh that makes sense! I mean not as an intended game mechanic, its wild to get an extra 1d4 for every type of elemental damage you apply. What if I dipped my pike in fire, is that another 1d4? Wild damage...
@@Fracture.Gaming It turns out I was mistaken about tavern brawler, which I shouldn't have been since I was using it just prior to watching this video. Which is embarrassing.
Rechecking things, I can confirm it's from the Ring of Flinging, not the Tavern Brawler. Still the same thing, though. It's added to all the damage of something that's thrown, period.
That elemental damage might not be physical, but it's still throwing damage since it's dealt by a thrown object, and that's enough for the ring, since there are elemental throwing items like alchemist fire it would have to boost.
Tavern Brawler adds DOUBLE strength bonus to throwing attacks. That's better than an extra 1d4.
@@chiip90 That it is, was a slight mishap that I later corrected myself on.
Yes but also there is a issue with damage riders not working as they are intended and compounding. This is particularly noticeable with Lightning Charges and Radiating Orbs.
I love the "Kreig is such a good person and never hurts innocent people," directly after ripping off Gale's hand for no reason and popping it in his inventory. 😂
😉😏
Okay, this was hysterical. As a player of Kreig back in the day, your committal to the bit was impressive, but some of your commentary over the roleplay had me in stitches. I really wish there was more of that, if I'm being honest.
Honestly, the character roleplay really helped me with my own commentary. I felt like I was in the mindset of my character and it made me just "know" what to say.
Taking Karlach over Lae’Zel is an absoulte win in my book
She's just hotter.
@@K-nut Literally...
But in all honesty I like Laezel more than Karlach, if not for the fact that Laezel and Shadowheart seem too integral to the story to just not use them. Whole act 2 is essentially shadowheart related stuff, whole game is about tadpoles so githyanki is ofc a perfect fit, especially with the twists and turns in the story. The other followers have barely any connection to the main plot whatsoever. Karlach is "oh I got sold to slavery by that guy" and that's pretty much it when it comes to connection to overarching story.
No
@@The_YukkiI barely use both lol. Shadow heart's racism got annoying and la zael's really is abrasive. I play a cleric so I don't need shadowheart and I have karlach so no la zael
@@Dakarai_Knight shadowheart's racism? We talking about the same shadoweart who is happy when you save the tieflings?
If you're going to continue this playthrough, have Karlach carry three empty boxes. Whenever you don't have a high ground to abuse in a fight, just stack the three boxes on top of each other and jump up.
That’s a great idea!!
If you use a big rectangular box on bottom, you can climb up normally!
Until your boxes get hit with aoe and break…
@@bishop3000home Yeah, that happens every now and then but clever use of Sanctuary or invisibility can help mitigate the chances. It's not an ironclad strategy, but it helps.
If you pass a perception check on the cage the goblin is trapped in, you'll see that the door is actually trapped. Opening the door (or I guess in this case breaking the bottom) triggers the trap, which is how you died. Considering that goblin was behind giant spiders AND a trapped cage, the absolute REALLY didn't want him getting out!
I didn't think this build would work but wow they actually let people do a throwing build and have it be legit, that's awesome!
Karlach cranking out as much damage as the other 3 combined, and from a full screen away too.
Karlach could throw me, just sayin...
Fighter with throwing weapon style and sharpshooter with a bunch of daggers is just dio before he got time stop
It’s Larian studio, it is expected. Much like they loved the barrelmancy cheese build in dos1/2, they pretty much love the creativity of players using unorthodox methods to win battles that they refuse to “patch” it. They only nerfed environmental effects in BG3 because it’s much closer DnD 5e than their own homebrew games, so it’s doable but not without its difficulties. They really want players to have as much freedom as they can without punishing players or shoehorning them into the hardcoded combat system since DOS 1, which is probably why people love them so much.
Oh yeah, between the Ring of Flinging, Tavern Brawler, and the Berserker subclass, throwing weapons (and non-weapons) is _nasty._
Krieg's trailer is one of my favorite pieces of game-related media, the voice acting on him is superb, I just wish Borderlands actually did something interesting with the character.
I love that you've given him a second life in Baldur's Gate 3, if anything I just wish you gave the sane voice a bit of spotlight too.
Yeah I only worked his sane voice in 2 or 3 times
I love the fact this this could be a real fever dream Krieg would have. lmao
I feel like he's a perfect (maybe THE perfect) character role play for Dark Urge.
For those who want to go deep into the meat stick, Salami is considered a Club and therefore is both a monk weapon and capable of being buffed by shillelagh. Enjoy your Magic Salami mad lad build.
in regards to karlach the lightning god, the ring "increases throw damage by 1d4" which means that it is increasing each instance of damage that comes from a throw attack. each bit of damage from the lightning charges is a separate instance of damage caused by the throw attack therefore the ring is boosting it. not really a bug so much as a really obscure synergy.
I’m wondering if I dipped the weapon in fire could I get a total of 3d4 from the ring… one in general, one from lightning, one from fire
yes@@Fracture.Gaming
This is my favorite BG3 video I have seen yet! Would love to see Krieg's continued adventures :)
I’ll continue the run, it’ll just be a while! I have a lot of video concepts I want to try out / get started right now
There was an exploit in the early access where if you had everyone hide, enemies would stand still and end their turn, now they spin on the spot (moves their vision cone 360°) then use that detect hidden ability (I don’t know if it’s all of them, but I’ve seen gnolls, goblins, humans, spiders, animals and all kinds of enemies doing it)
That’s why you keep one party member visible but out of range and make a spot where the enemies can’t get you.
@@CompletelyNewguy it’s been like 4 months since I tried the exploit, forgive me for forgetting the exact method
@@CompletelyNewguy thats no fun, exploiting such a beautiful game :/
@@NeFjuSmy game my rules
@@NeFjuS it's their loss, not yours!
In case you still don't know about the cage, it was trapped so when you attacked it the trap triggered and killed you. This video makes me realize I've been missing out by hoarding all my throwing weapons.
Well if you hoarded them then your arsenal is officially ready to be unleashed :)
In the goblin camp you can get a pike that has returning on it, it's pretty much the only thrown weapon you need.
Edit: nvm he found it.
@@The_Yukki yes but what about the other 3 chars?
this video was really enjoyable, hope you continue the psycho run into the rest of the game
I think I will, but it'll be a while before I head into act 2. I REALLY want to experience acts 2 and 3 with friends rather than solo, so my videos initially are going to stay in act 1 probably. Unless I change my mind, idk.
your video has such an "old youtube" vibe and I mean this as the highest of compliments, it truly shows your appreciation of a quality game and your love for entertaining. Keep it up, I have become an instant fan.
Pleasseeeee continue this play through. This is definitely one of the best CZcams vids to come out in a LONG time. Great work!!
That an excellent video! i love seeing roleplay combined with silly/broken builds. Thanks for all the laughs
this was really fun, i love how you incorporate roleplaying into your vids!
This is the best BG3 video on CZcams. Please make more. I loved your DOS2 series of ridiculous strategies as well.
watched all the recent videos, very amusing, educative and inspiring.
keep it up
Bro your creativity is genius level, I would never think to do any of these things and a Borderlands character playthrough is epic, I love it please keep it up!
Haha thanks :) I’ve got some other video concepts I want to try out before coming back to this one and taking it through act 2, but I’ll definitely keep it going!
Seriously the best BG3 vid I’ve seen so far. Absolutely amazing idea to run with.
37:31 The reason you immediately got downed for attacking the cage is because it is trapped. The same thing happens if you unlock the cage without disarming the trap beforehand.
Honestly I ran into your videos recently as I’ve never played any of the divinity games but after watching your lv 1 play-through I’ve been loving your content
If anyone else heard Creeg's voice and thought it sounded familiar it's because the VA is Jason Douglas. He voices a lot of popular anime characters, most notably Beerus from Dragonball Super. Love that guy.
Will watch it once I get to play Dark Urge proper, but already liked because this is I'm sure great content, glad to see BG3 !
Your videos are the best content i have seen in a very long time. Please keep doing these incredible projects!
Amazing video! Hopefully you continue this
This was such a great video! I can't wait to see how your Krieg handles the rest of the Dark Urge, I just beat that last night :)
This was absolutely amazing one of the best videos I have ever seen and laughed the entire video!!!!! THANK YOU for letting me experience something I didn't know I needed.
bro this was amazing def keep up the good content
The concept is great bro, had me laughing all the time :D. Keep it up.
super enjoyed watching this! please do more!
It was wonderful. The video. It was unique, it was fun to watch. Although the summaries were short, they were detailed enough. Edits was good. It was nice. Thank you.
Dude your videos are awesome. Keep it up and thank you for taking the time to upload.
I'm really glad you like them! Hopefully I'll just keep getting better and better
This video was really good. I also really appreciate the content warnings, I've seen those specific scenes before and was okay with them but it felt really nice having a warning before hand regardless
Yeah none of it could be super graphic because CZcams rules, but it was still enough to warrant a warning.
this video was so much fun!! can't wait for more!!!
this was such a treat to watch, thank you for making this
Loved this so much, definitely coming back for more content!
I loved this video honestly amazing concept keep it going
dude that's definitely an amazing idea, really hope there's gonna be more ridiculous strategy videos. ive been a huge fan of ymfah's videos but seeing this kind of shit in baldur's gate is another level
I have a few different video concepts I'm getting started on in act 1 to see what people like most! Roleplay, challenge videos, strange party comps, ridiculous strategies, I'll be bringing it all! Slowly... if only I could edit faster
This was actually a really good video. I was interested the whole way
I hate and love that your builds worked as well as they did!
Love this! 🤣 Keep going, if you are having fun. Thanks for the content!
I'm hoping to experience act 2 and 3 for the first time with friends, so it'll be a bit before my videos make it there. But eventually :)
I'll probably be making BG3 videos on and off for the next 2-3 years honestly. Or more. I'll definitely take breaks for other games & videos tho
Loved the video! Hope to see more like this in the future
Truly hilarious Fracture! Love your content
Thanks so much!!
Loved this video! I how you're planning on continuing this pkaythrough!!!
I am, this style of video is just a big project and life is busy right now so I’m doing simpler ideas for the moment.
I really liked the video! Krieg is a nice boi.
Throwing weapons is a really funny strategy.
As a Krieg main this video warms my soul! Thank you! :D
Very entertaining man, good work
This was hilarious to watch. Keep it going!
This was great! Nice editing!
Please make a part 2. That was perfect !
Very cool video. I did enjoy it thank you. Left a like and sub
Found the all Warlocks vid, laughed and enjoyed so much, subscribed from that. Watched the Zhalk cheese vid, then this one. I just started a new playthrough, and was fully intending on using Karlach anyway, so definitely doing this now. Brilliant video and channel. I wish I could subscribe and like more. Love the roleplays and cheese vids equally. Really hope Krieg lives on.
Krieg will continue slapping people with his meat, but it’ll have to wait at least until I get a run started with each of my different video concepts for BG3.
I have a few different styles of video concepts with varying levels of roleplay vs gameplay and want them all posted so I can see what people think and improve the concepts moving forward!
@@Fracture.Gaming All good I look forward to whatever fresh hell chaos you produce next. Stay cheesy and awesome mate.
Amazing video, as a fan of Borderlands, your weird strategies, and of course Larian.
I'm glad you liked it :)
amazing vid, wanna see how far you can go with it
I can overconfidently say that I can take on the whole game with this party. But that’s not too hard to say with Karlach’s throwing build in the mix
I just stumbled across your channel and im surprised by the quality to subs ratio. Youre awesome love the channel and the videos =)
Thanks so much!! Really glad you like the videos :)
this video has a great concept, smooth editing, hilarious and well timed samples, actually surprisingly good gameplay(given the circumstances) and your narration is witty and concise. 15/10 can not wait for the next vid. You're due for a viral hit soon.
definitely earned my sub
Srsly. Impressed.
Great vid. Realy loved it
That was fantastic. Somehow hard to find amazing BG3 content like this
This was f****** fantastic. I look forward to the Further Adventures of Krieg in Baldur's Gate
Man for a relatively small channel your video kicks ass, great editing, hilarious meme worthy gameplay! Subbed!
Thanks so much, I'm getting better all the time! This idea was really exciting for me, I'm so glad people like it! I want to try it with other characters and maybe in other games too
@@Fracture.Gaming
great video! can’t wait for the next adventures of karlach the pike throwing demon
With Krieg as best supporting actor ;)
Excellent video!
Loved it, keep the vids coming.
This is a brilliant video!
This is a built actual DND players would probably do.
It's just amazing, my friend!
I already played some stupid ways in Divinity OS2 and was about to find something similar in BG3 and this is just fantastic! Thank you for all the effort and hard work!
The dmg from throwing things and the lack of exp comes from the fact that throwing things counts the object falling on the character as collateral dmg from dropping on them. As far as i've seen some dmg that you do if it is not direct and counted as environmental it does not give exp.
This is a pretty interesting playthrough do more!
I'd be down for more adventures with Krieg salami slapping folks and throwing random shit from their non-existent pockets.
Not harming innocents but cuts gale's hand, makes sense
Gales severed hand kill me from laughter. This is hillarious, thanks man!
I don't know how but seeing you play this way wanted me to play even more a game I already play 8 hours a day
Funny video and very creative. Hope I get to see act 3! :D
It'll get there eventually! Just not soon. I have a lot of act 1 video concepts I want to try
This was great! Loved it
CZcams suggested your channel to me because Ive been watching/listening to a ton of BG3 content, and you are one of my absolute favs so far. Definitely subscribing. Would love to see you do more of this. And if you ever get bored of it, you could just pick a different game to mash BG3 with. Either way, 13/10 content. Look at YT making a good suggestion!
This was a fantastic video! If you get tired of Astarion sucking, you could always switch him out for Wyll who could have an unholy pact with his salami.
Heh, sucking. *vampire slurp*
Excellent man, keep it up!
I am now doing a Krieg Dark Urge playthrough, thank you for the wonderful idea lmfao
Krieg is love, Krieg is life
I was waiting with bated breath for your bg 3 content, you did not disappoint, you psychopath.
Thanks :) worked pretty non-stop to get this video out as quick as I could. I was originally going to do "can you beat bg3 with salami only" but this sounded like a more fun way to use Salami tbh.
@@Fracture.Gaming You really hit the mark, the Krieg roleplay felt like such a unique take on BG3 content. Big kudos man, love it.
This video was honestly awesome and even though i just started act 3 i seem to have missed some interactions with items like the invisibility cloak.
this shit is fun in act 1 i wish u goodluck doing this in act 3 :D lol hope u do tbh cant wait to watch that!
Yo, this was great. I'd be glad to have more.
That was great. Please keep doing things like this.
As a Krieg enjoyer from the days of BL2, thank you, this was great!
that was incredible lol, im new to this type of game and pretty surprised of how differently u can handle things, using differents props to fight etc, instead of just running and spamming normal attacks / spells lol
( i didnt even knew that throwing weapons would be a real thing )
but beside of this your concept is so cool i watched it entirely !
seems like no one on youtube making videos like this ever leaves the first area. continue this play style outside of the tutorial area
It’s just because people don’t click on them because of fear of spoilers, then CZcams algorithm becomes convinced the video sucks and stops showing it.
I’ll keep this run going, just getting lots of my ideas started before continuing into act 2. Except my beat the game at level 1 series, ima finish act 3 in the next week or two I think.
This was rollercoaster of hilarity and, I enjoyed every minute of it. Now I want to turn Karlach into a throwing goddess.
This RP concept is.... AMAZING. I loved it, keep it going. Can't stop laughing about Krieg saying nipple salad instead of thanks🤣
I would love to see this playthrough finished.
This is the first challenge video I've seen on this game and it's perfect
So happy you liked it :) I think I'll try more roleplay videos with other characters, and finish this one out too (eventually)
