Awesome :D Zombie army is inspired. Lyrthindor was like, "I am an army of rats." And you were like, "Now you are my army of zombies." I didn't know you could start this fight at the effigy. I always thought I had kill the rats in the gauntlet, but then the rats are waiting for me by the time I get down to their lair.
It’s my first time doing this fight, only looked it up on TH-cam how to start it and this is the way they did it. Didn’t know another way was doable too! 😅 Crazy fun with all the zombies! 🧟
@@FriendlyLichFun and really effective. I think it worked out better than using spike growth. If you kill two rats in the gauntlet, a special rat will spawn and want to talk to you. I think it's supposed to spawn close to you, but for me it always spawns by the fast travel waypoint outside Balthazar's room. If you talk to it, it will threaten you and tell you to stop killing rats and gives you the location of minor loot (some gold) if you agree. If you kill it, then all the rats in the gauntlet will run down to their effigy lair. If you follow them, there will be a circle of rats in the lair waiting for you.
It's no item. The zombies itself will infect a person for 1 round and if they die the same turn they turn into another zombie. Lyrthindor is a boss that spawn in this encounter so I don't think he can turn friendly.
@@cwlrs4944 No worries! Ok, so usually the spell Animate Dead allows you to summon 1 zombie. But since we're a necromancer we get more zombies and stronger. Zombies that hit people can inflict "Crawling Gnaw" condition. Upcasting Animate Dead will also provide different summons, like skeleton archers and ghouls (even flying ghouls!). Regarding the zombies: The description of Crawling Gnaw is: "Target is inflicted with zombie mucus. If the affected entity dies before the infection wears off, it will temporarily rise as a Newborn Zombie." Hope that helps! :)
@@cwlrs4944 Very welcome and thank you! I am planning on doing house of hope yes, but going to collect gear and do some other fights first to gather some more power. Anything in act 3 you want me to give a try besides house of hope?
Walking dead meets BG3 😂
Haha! I had similar thoughts during this 😅
That is a normal amount of zombies
Completely normal amount :)
Rats vs Zombies. Epic Necromancer show.
It did get out of hand real fast :D
@@FriendlyLich it is beautiful. I do not think you’ll get this many zombuddies again sadly.

@@sammyisanoctopus ooh I see. Something to explore later on then, thanks for the explanation!
Buffed necromancer looking sweet
Feels cool with a real army of undeads :). Sad that they cannot be teleported anymore though!
Can't wait for the full build walkthrough, been trying to make a good Necro and failing
Closing in to act 3 and level 12! Will start working on it once that's done (or if I die before).
I think my computer might genuinely seppuku itself with that many zombies. Awesome strategy tho!
I’m not sure if you can tell but my computer did start to feel laggy at the end. I was thinking “I hope the game doesn’t crash” 😅.
i am inspired to use a create undead scroll next time i do this fight. hilarious.
haha yea it turned out completely hilarious!
That was hilarious 😂.
Haha glad that you enjoyed it! :D
Rats… turn into zombies?
It's kind of weird but yes. Not sure why but it turns into quite the zombie fest at least :D
I really thought it wouldn’t trigger the soporific rat
😂 the newborn zombies expiring during dialogue is wild
@@deadkidnextdoor Haha yea they were popping all over the place 😅
Holy crap
Since Yurgir is really close by, I wonder if theres a way to either lure him closer, or get the zombies to him quickly post combat
That's an interesting idea!!
not enough zombies
Haha! I'll try to do better next time 🤣
You have a PhD in baldurs gate 3
Haha thank you :D
Sucks that you can’t keep those zombies for anything.
I agree, would be awesome to have such a horde!
@@FriendlyLich honestly I don’t see a good reason as to why those aren’t YOUR zombies XD
@@jaylentejeda8642 Hell yes they are :)
What item makes everything spawn into a zombie? Why did the rats go friendly and Lyrthindor zombie hostile?
It's no item. The zombies itself will infect a person for 1 round and if they die the same turn they turn into another zombie. Lyrthindor is a boss that spawn in this encounter so I don't think he can turn friendly.
@@FriendlyLich What spell makes your starting zombies? Sorry I don't really play necromancers - not my style but this is really cool!

@@FriendlyLich Interesting, thanks! Love the vids btw. Are you going to do house of hope?
