#baldursgate3 #speedrun Went faster this time :) Using Goomba stomping strats. Shoutouts to MrOgam for the position for the stomp without triggering the fight sequence.
Hey everyone! Just in case you didn't see it, I have a new run of Honour Mode completed in 22:54 here that uses brand new strats! czcams.com/video/Z5fnW8CNQKk/video.html
@@IamSillyPilled haha yeah, so when you’re in that scene with Emperor (floating in the astral dream realm) there is an option that’s something like “where is your mouth” (most people choose the “kiss his tentacles” at this point), and when you choose that first option he says “if you prefer I can change back to my other form as it will be more familiar to you”. And then you can choose the option of either “yes that would be easier” or “no I like this form, just instruct me what to do”. When he said that I was thinking “actually your other form is rather freaky looking, so the tentacles is actually an improvement” 😂 I didn’t know what the dream guardian was for when I first played, so I made it look freaky like people look in my actual dreams, so my options were either “Lovecraftian nightmare” or “space monster h*ntai”.
@@a22328425Because Tav/protagonist initiated the fight but Shadowheart was still invisible so she wasn't registered as in the fight too, she was just jumping back and forth on Ketheric 🤣
I followed a lot but I'm still really confused on some of these zone glitches and what's with the Pixie Bell being used other than the first time? Impressive work though even if tough to follow some of the skips.
Me watching shadowheart be unal1ved, put in a wooden trunk, set on fire, only to see her wake up next morning in her underwear and beat the crap out of Tav... wtf happened there?
Even Volo would have a hard time writing about this. "We think there was some mindflayer stuff going on, but the invasion lasted a few minutes because a half naked halfling destroyed a god with fireworks".
The funny thing is, they BECAME the absolute. The dead 3 had this intricate plan put into motion, only for a rabid halfling to speed its way into the throne
Thank you so much for your videos and precise instructions! Made it to the last fight on a full campaign run but made the mistake of leaving the orphic hammer on a different companion. Went to free orpheus and it was an instant game over. I was so frustrated after doing a long clean campaign. I followed your tutorials to do a speed run and I was able to get my foe hammer achievement!
You know developers made a great game when players get creative and it works. Exploiting the game mechanics and toppling supposedly challenging bosses. Most importantly, the developers are cool with it, they even encourage it lol.
this shows that the game is not fully thought out. For example kidnapping Gortash or jumping on someone without starting a fight, it doesn't have sense
@@Eragon30971 "Yeah if I spam click or jump 30,000 times in one exact pixel perfect spot combining three out of nine hundred variables in one specific sequence out of something to the power of something, there's this unintended thing I can do. The devs just haven't fully thought their game out."
Now we need a video with him explaining what he was doing because my man was in act one then teleported to the mountains and then beat the game before I got out of character creation.
wait all those tiny fireworks were enough to kill the brain holy crap??!!!! also holy crap that is amazing you did it in 25:58 jeez omg. it's always so cool to see these kind of runs
Hey mate, I found you through your amazing speeding of honour mode tutorials and seeing you in action is incredible, to say the least. Amazing run, and I can't wait to see more from you.
Congratulations on your run! And thank you for the tutorial videos as well, they are extremely helpful. Looking forward to your commentary at AGDQ next year! I think my favorite new trick in this video is the goomba stomping on Ketheric. As soon as I saw Shadowheart turn into a bear, and then an unreasonably large bear, I knew magic was about to happen.
@@eipimujayeah for sure, but keep in mind I've never done this so I'm just making assumptions. But it really seems to be like this: At 23:19, Orin disguised as yenna spawns and runs to the player to talk to them. I assume during the conversation she's supposed to turn back into orin, but the player starts spam clicking on the pixie in their hotbar to start talking to the pixie before yenna reaches them. This cancels the conversation with yenna, resulting in her never turning back into orin, thus being yenna at the boss enounter. When it comes to enemies disguised as something else, one hit will turn them back into their original form (like with the redcaps disguised as sheep in act 1). When that happens, their healthbar will go back to its full value. However, until they revert back, they really do have that much hp, so if you turn on the non-lethal attacks passive, you can one shot them for a knockout if they're disguised as something with low hp. Yenna has 5hp, so this is perfect. The knockout counts as the enemy being defeated and gives all the xp, so the player using the pixie to keep orin as yenna leads to a non-lethal one shot at 24:15, basically skipping the whole boss fight.
@@itsSmiv thank you so much! I didn't think that the pixie was supposed to stop the interaction from happening, I thought maybe she has some effect in Act 3 that I missed. It's interesting to see all of these glitches, I wish I knew some of these for my own Honours Run (finished it at 40 hrs).
Well, if you’re curious about what a ton of fireworks, a runepowder barrel, and tons of smokepowder barrels do, my brother and I managed to deal about 1500 damage to Ansur 🤣
That was an amazing site-seeing tour of parts of Faerûn and Baldur's Gate! I noticed that some people got slightly injured as we passed through some areas (hope they're ok!) Also, that one guy Gormash or Gorslash (can't remember his name) was a big jerk and got thrown off the tour; good riddance, I say. Best tour ever! Can't wait to take part in another! Edit: grammar
Tav: Wakes up on a Nautiloid Also Tav, literally like a minute later: JUMPING ACROSS FAERUN Edit: YOU CAN CAST COMMAND ON KARNISS??? Edited edit: Bruh imagine minding your business in Baldurs Gate and all you see is a women jumping through, going into a building, picking up one of the most important people in the city, jumping back out and throwing him off a bridge. I'd move.
insane time even with a few unlucky shoves on the mage hand and some small hickups. interesting new rout to i just watched your act 1 and 2 guide and got myself into trying out the run and iam doing good progress got into act 3 within 30 min on my last try. do you plan doing a guide for the new rout after the act 3 guide?
Good to see that they pause timers on loadingscreen in this category too :p As BG can have some nasty long ass loadingscreens regardless being on an SSD or Nvme
How are your stacks of feather fall & enhanced jump staying up indefinitely? I’m sure it was something you setup with an exploit way early on that I can’t even comprehend. Fantastic run 🤘
It's due to a glitch called infinite status, which you can learn about in my tutorial series linked here: czcams.com/play/PLHiKm2oEim6JkJlGYMd0Cm1YLZhkbUFXj.html
"I shall now summon my familiar" "Bro... i looked at your character sheet, you don't have find familiar; You're cheating" *Laughs maniacally, pulling out a revive scroll and Shadowheart's corpse from her pocket*
For Gortash, we used improvised melee weapon on him to carry his body all the way out of where his AI is, then cancel the action so we don't attack him. This is around where the 2 Steel Watchers are standing, so when we bring him there, Gortash is not able to do anything unless we 'interact' with him such as talking or attacking him. We then carry him out with a trick called kidnapping, letting us carry him to the drawbridge where we drop him off. Then, we can try throwing him off as many times as we want since his AI is dead.
Super impressive but oh So many questions, why does shadow heart death just resurrect upon resting whilst in a burning chest? How does the invisible wild shape enlarged bear have unlimited movement and bonus actions, doesn’t even show a movement speed bar? How does exiting the shadowlands auto land you in moonrise prison? Then why does jumping through the wall in the illithid colony auto free the night song, thus bypassing the entire gauntlet of shar? Does jumping whilst trying to throw gortash it him in your pocket? (Did love seeing him flail), love the firework gathering, but then I noticed, your feather fall and jump durations don’t deteriorate at all…why? How were there no checks when arriving at the brain in the morphic pool just straight back to the astral prisim? Is it bc Jaheria has no tadpole? How did using the spell on the crown auto open the portal? Usually takes a couple rounds, invisible and surprised? Loved seeing it all come together in the final moments, simply incredible After commenting, I see you have your tutorial videos, as those will most likely answer my questions, thank you!
Hey everyone!
Just in case you didn't see it, I have a new run of Honour Mode completed in 22:54 here that uses brand new strats!
czcams.com/video/Z5fnW8CNQKk/video.html
My man beating the game faster than I can "choose a guardian"
literal
Ever since I found out that the Guardian is just ole tentacle I just randomize that shit
@@kratospwns241 yeah but you can make him switch back to that form so they can be the hot guardian again when you bone 😂
@@elenalizabethYOU CAN DO THAT???

New fear unlocked: an invisible enlarged bear jumping on me until death
Kinky
At least it was Shadowheart and not the annoyingly horney Halsin.
@@heiral7773 i'll take Halsin
this is insane, the bossfight with ketheric and straight up kidnapping gortash were hilarious
I was trying to figure out how they were going to take phase 2 Ketheric and the invisible bear killed me
@@BenTheunissen Looks like it also killed ketheric as well 🤣🤣
How did he jump on enemy without into fight?
Invisibility @@a22328425
@@a22328425Because Tav/protagonist initiated the fight but Shadowheart was still invisible so she wasn't registered as in the fight too, she was just jumping back and forth on Ketheric 🤣
snagging Gortash mid court room just to yeet him off his own bridge had me dying.
had him dying too :P
I love the way Gortash is kind of floating across the room with his legs wiggling
I skipped forward in the video and randomly got to that exact point, I was crying laughing
18:00 Yeah that part was gold
“Improvised Melee Weapon” indeed 😂
I have no clue why he keeps killing shadow hart but by the middle of it I stared to feel it was the right thing to do
He either had a grudge OR was trying to reduce the amount of people in initiative to make it faster. Either way, fair
I don't know either, but it probably was to create some sort of bug that locks cooldowns and effect durations, the effects never ticked down from 10
YES ty i was looking for this, it was my theory too@@Youngbloodd2
wasn't this to prevent cutscenes during rest and thus force other cutscenes to progress the story? Otherwise, probably just walking and jumping faster
@@Youngbloodd2I feel like it’s that and it’s also to move people around. He kills Tav to carry her to revive her where shadowheart was.
When mom said you can only play for only half an hour
This is great because I truly don't have a clue what's happening at almost any moment after you leave the tutorial. Tremendous.
I followed a lot but I'm still really confused on some of these zone glitches and what's with the Pixie Bell being used other than the first time? Impressive work though even if tough to follow some of the skips.
"Tremendous" is such an op word
What was he doing to Shadowheart at the start? God I am so lost
Same here !
Everything from the very beginning had me in disarray. From Strength Wizard to kidnapping Gortash.
J U M P
Me watching the kidnapping of Gortash trying to understand what is going on: 👁️👄👁️
I bet that's what Gortash was doing too lmfao. 😂
Me watching shadowheart be unal1ved, put in a wooden trunk, set on fire, only to see her wake up next morning in her underwear and beat the crap out of Tav... wtf happened there?
I did something similar, but if u pick him up, and quickly use a fast travel, u can kidnap him
"swift as my feet can carry me" but tav actually means it
Even Volo would have a hard time writing about this. "We think there was some mindflayer stuff going on, but the invasion lasted a few minutes because a half naked halfling destroyed a god with fireworks".
What about Dragons ??
There always has to have a Dragon 😂
The funny thing is, they BECAME the absolute. The dead 3 had this intricate plan put into motion, only for a rabid halfling to speed its way into the throne
What's wild is skipping literally all of acts 1 and 2 and still coming out of it at level 8
Dragging Gortash out of his own coronation as everyone just watches is the funniest thing, omg
Invisible Giant Bear from the top rope was new and hilarious
How did that work mechanically? Was it just falling damage on the boss, while invisible? Why didn't it aggro the fight?
Crushing damage is calculated by distance fallen, it very rapidly stacks up.
@@giantmarmoset bcoz it was invisible, I guess??
The fact that the run ends with a burst of fireworks is almost poetic.
trading in The armor of Ketheric fucking Thorm for a few bottle rockets is an excellent comedic moment
"Enough waiting. I crave blood!"
*jumps off a cliff*
I'd like to see a real D&D campaign played like this, where you solve everything with jumping and fireworks.
A real DM's nightmare.
Holy shit, that Druid strat for ketheric was nuts, I love it
You can save time by pressing spacebar instead of clicking "pick up all" with containers, it does the exact same thing.
Ah I see, didn't know the hotkey to take all from containers, so that'll be useful. Not too much time save but every bit does count, thanks!
@@ChronosReturns bro knows every bug in the game but still doesn't know the hotkey to pickup items that is insanely funny
@@Kacq3rlol seriously
“We have three undead gods on our side and magic from a man that almost was a god, what could stop us?”

Well done. Incredible technical skill, congrats on the 25:58
Love the druid strat for Ketheric/Myrkul 😊
Thanks! Really liked your video on beating Honour Mode at level 1 as well, will be incorporating a couple of those strats into my glitchless run!

Astonishing gameplay though
Shadowheart becoming a giant invisible bear and bodying a gods avatar with just being chonky is hilarious
How to kill the avatar of a god?
INVISIBEAR!
wait all those tiny fireworks were enough to kill the brain holy crap??!!!! also holy crap that is amazing you did it in 25:58 jeez omg. it's always so cool to see these kind of runs

Meanwhile my honor mode got lost halfway to a minthara bug. Watching his body flail as you took him to the bridge was amazing.
Imagine the DM's reaction to this play in their game
Most people would still be at the character creation screen by the time this run ends.
How do you carry someone like Gortash, then use other stuff, like how did you bring him all the way out?

I spent so much time at the temple of Bhaal on my first play through before I realized you could just get jaheria to turn everyone into a gas cloud
i lost my honor mode run on the netherbrain to the collapsing platforms and all i had to do was toss fireworks at it
Getting serial smushed by an enlarged invisible bear would be a bad way to go.
