Baldur's Gate 3 - Solo Honour - Portal Defense (Lifting the Shadow Curse) - Astarion

An origin Astarion solo Honour Mode playthrough, which is Monk. Cleric here because I did not want to risk losing Halsin's buff for the Netherbrain.
I'll be doing all origin characters solo, or attempting to. I started with a Dark Urge archer and have completed Astarion (Monk), Karlach (Eldritch Knight / Barbarian Thrower), and Wyll (Warlock) so far. I am not sure which builds I will use on the remaining characters, but Lae'zel will be next and some sort of melee build. Then Gale which will be a caster of some kind. I will leave Shadowheart as the last, as I've already completed a solo honour run with her. Most likely something "evil" for Shadowheart though, and I probably will keep her Cleric.
I don't have time to record commentary, to edit or to rewatch the videos. There may be a few instances of playing more than easy encounters or insignificant bits of the game on Steam Deck, so they would lack videos.
I sometimes make mistakes, sometimes get unlucky or lucky, and sometimes things just do not work out as planned or expected. It is easy to say in hindsight what could have or should have been done differently, but c'est la vie.

Oh, maan! Saw the video, got excited to see how you can manage this fight as a monk :-)))

The only way I think it'd be possible would be to use loads of scrolls or explosives, and then really there wouldn't be much point in being Monk anyways.

[@alexmashkin863]

@@QuiteDisquietly Yeah, pretty much my thinking exactly :-) That's why I was curious if you found a way to do it as a monk

Spirit guardians is so op in shadowlands, it should be illegal :D

They are good all throughout the game, if not for damage, for spreading Radiating Orbs with the right equipment on.
