Didn't this happen while everyone was asleep? Nobody would know the box blew her up, and even if Shart tried to tell somebody, I doubt they'd believe that the box just HAPPENED to suddenly blow somebody up.
If you don't just let her stab you, Shadowheart can actually kill Lae herself. They probably didn't want to do two sets of reactions when the outcome is ostensibly the same from the party's perspective.
@@codenate02Well, accounting for the big ass explosion that birthed a miniature sun at their campfire... Who am I kidding, these dorks slept through me mauling a poor bard, hiding the body, without even attltong to remove the bloodstain.
Well, do you call attacking someone in their sleep a duel? It's wrong of Shart to do it to Lae'zel (when don't play as Shart) as much as it's wrong for Lae'zel. Lae'zel wanted to bring artifact back to her kin, so Emperor stopped her, simple as that.
@@MatriarchatorHow is it wrong of Shart to do it? In a non origin run, Lae'zel is the one who instigates and promises a duel to the death. Shart would've stood no chance against a githyanki warrior, so she falls back on her training and makes the first move before lae'zel is ready. It's just simple survival.
@@CelestialDraconisWell it's wrong morally, but I agree. If you account only for survival, then Shart is completely right. That's one of the reason why I dislike Lae'zel. A lot of her choices bring unnecessary danger for the rest group (like even with character knowledge, creche is an obvious trap that game doesn't let you call that).
@@MatriarchatorI think they mean that they are acting like Shadowheart won a fight, but it was the prism that did it tho. Actually a lot of these choices could be avoided if Shadowheart was either better at hiding it or better at trusting her allies. A player who can't earn Lae'zel's trust as you play as Shadowheart has failed.
@@SLYKMAaaand Shart would care about Lae'zel's approval because? Fine, it was not Shart's win. What does it matter? Toad messed around and found out. I doesn't matter how but any event that can get Lae'zel killed is her own fault (be it "duel" with Shart, meeting Gith patrol or NOT GAINING peoples' trust when she's in cage). So yeah, I don't see a point.
Those are standard dialogs if you let Shadowheart kill Lae’zel. I’ve never played her origin and I’ve seen these companion reactions before when I let SH kill Lae’zel once. Her blowing up though was new on me.
I like all the companions, but watching them turn into bits and pieces will always be funny to me Maybe its my tf2 brain linking it with the explode keybind people use lol
But that +STR is a +17 to all strength rolls, not to mention she technically has advantage due to the surprise attack. And that’s not counting if she has a enchanted dagger or not depending on what’s equipped here lol
Damn, and here I thought the Emperor didn't care who carried the Prism as long as it served his purposes. But he clearly grew attached to Shadowheart. Or just felt insulted that Lae'zel unwittingly questioned his choice of Prism-bearer.
Lae'zel is a Githyanki and the Emperor fears them, for they might come to kill him and the source of his power and safety, Orpheus. I think he killed Lae'zel to save himself, because she would've brought the Prism to Vlaakith.
Yeah, at this point in time Lae'zel is still fully loyal to Vlaakith and so the Emperor feared she might simply turn the Prism over to Voss or whoever else might be looking for it.
@@LakeLakH you don't really get any beefs with Shadowheart as Lae'zel, but i guess i was playing it the way to not have any conflicts with her and even almost got to romance her. It makes sense tho since Lae'zel is instigator mostly, but i guess it could be other way if you don't have good relationships and do a lot of long rests.
From the Guardian's perspective, a murderously angry Lae'zel would be just another Githyanki for them to avoid at all costs. She was probably the party member it was most suspicious of early on.
@Myzelfa the only reason it protects all of them is because of the tav. That's why origin playthorughs feel weird. The rest of the group has too much side baggage to be trustworthy or helpful. Tav has none.
@@colinnixon7739 ? that doesn't make any sense for a dark urge playthrough, though. unless you're including them as an origin (which i guess they are) i mean my tav was roleplayed as a CE-leaning warlock whose patron was a lich and would do anything for a smidgen more personal power so not all tavs are free from baggage either
@@broadwaystar2bWell, Withers limits himself to resurrecting only members of the party after all. The moment one of them turns on another & ends up dead, they're considered booted from the party & thus, illegible for the benefit of getting resurrected.
Lae'zel cannot be brough back by Withers after she turns on a party member, as she is no longer a party member, and Withers can only bring back a party member. Don't spread misinformation.
The move is to use Withers to respecc her. Even split on dex and str is terrible. I +17 her dex and give her the intellect circlet from the Ogre trio in Act 1. Pretty strong.
I take it as a sign that the Emperor was forced to intervene. Everyone else was still asleep and Shadowheart was all that was left to protect it. Lae'zel could very well take the prism back to their queen and thus the Emperor stopped her. Giving back the prism. When the Kith'rak takes it; the Emperor is in a bad situation. Forcing the artifact to the one it's bound to. He won't let those he hadn't bound the artifact to have it. Exploding the inquisitor is not a life or death situation.
@@Polomance862 and I think the blowing-up might be a thing he can only do to people that have a tadpole in their head. Like, it's doing something with the shielding that causes the modified instantaneous ceremorphosis to happen, but so unstably that the person just blows up instead.
I kinda think it's the Emperor giving Tav or any origin character a chance to leave without aggravating the Gith since they know how dangerous they can be. Just like how they destroy the tadpole Jaheira carries to gain her trust for the character, which probably hurt since it could've been useful
I never knew this could happen! In a few of my non-origin playthroughs, Lae'zel just murders Shadowheart after Shart attacks while Laezel is sleeping. They roll initiative and Shart never stands a chance.
Lae zael wanting to know of the origin of a an Githyanki artefact and Shadowheart not wanting to answer any of her question made shadowheart look extremely guilty to the point it was obvious she stole it. soooo it was pretty much a "Personal matter" that the two of them had to resolve and nothing to do with betrayal.
They slept during this fight. And for those saying somehow it is SH's fault for being attacked just because she didn't want to share information about something Lae'zel knows nothing about to begin with is pretty weird...
Lae'Zel keep thinking and yapping she is like super overpowered strong god. Meanwhile she is most pathetic of them all: 1. Get captured by Ilithids, 2. Get trapped by 2 random thieflings in act 1 3. Shadowhearth having knife on her neck 4. Get captured by Orin 5. Explode into pieces 6. Get shitted on by Voss at the bridge and probably many more to discover
Everyone got captured by Illithids. In this scene you see Lae can also put a knife to SH's neck. Everyone except protag can be captured by Orin. I dunno... Sounds to me like half your list is just reciting things that aren't unique to her.
Kinda weird they act like Shadowheart killed Lae'zel herself when it was the artifact atomizing her. I guess they didn't have time to do unique dialogue for that particular circumstance.
These are the same reactions to Lae'zel dying during this fight regardless of how she dies, my Tav ended up killing her and they were all the same lines.
Dunno what I find funnier. That githyanki warrior can be elbowed easily by restrained enemy while holding dagger to their heart. That shadowheart ability to dodge or block a dagger stab is practically non-existent. Or that the character I never liked has a cutscene where they explode for being an asshole.
Can someone tell me why would the artifact attack Laezel like that? If you kill Shadowheart and steal the artifact as Tav, it doesn't kill you. Even if you play as Laezel. Why would the Emperor do that in that specific context?
I really don't like how some companions are so judgemental when Shadowheart did nothing excepte get fucking stabbed. Lazel was the one that fucked around with the artifact and then found out. But they act like you slit here throat.
ugh wyll and Gale, really! no mention of the fact that the zealot who regularly threatens to kill just about everyone in the party, ambushed you in the middle of the night, proceeded to stab you and then BLEW HERSELF UP! But know it's all your fault because you kept a little secret. Because god knows you aren't keeping any secrets!
In my first (and current!) playthrough, I was in the middle of goblin genocide when a random drow jumped in and joined them. Turns out she had a mind flayer parasite... Imagine my surprise a few days later when I see a video talking about her as a companion... Oops.

5. Explode into pieces
6. Get shitted on by Voss at the bridge
and probably many more to discover
Well it's not necessarily Laezel that gets captured by Orin.
Everyone got captured by Illithids.
In this scene you see Lae can also put a knife to SH's neck.
Everyone except protag can be captured by Orin.
I dunno... Sounds to me like half your list is just reciting things that aren't unique to her.
Laezel casually walking around the the NXT north American championship belt around her waist
I was so confused as I had never seen this before, but then realized it was as origin shadowheart 🤣
Minerva probably: "cool!"
Explosion?!?!?! Thats a fucking nova strike. Never saw this before satisfying as hell tho
1:38 at that moment she knew, *she fucked up....*
What was the cause of it exploding? did it have something to do with the emperor not wanting it in the hands of a Gith?
I’m doing my honor mode run as Origin Shadowheart and boy am I glad I didn’t get that particular outcome 😬😬
2:27 of a varsity athlete.
She never had the makings of it.
Kinda weird they act like Shadowheart killed Lae'zel herself when it was the artifact atomizing her.
I guess they didn't have time to do unique dialogue for that particular circumstance.
These are the same reactions to Lae'zel dying during this fight regardless of how she dies, my Tav ended up killing her and they were all the same lines.
Dunno what I find funnier.
That githyanki warrior can be elbowed easily by restrained enemy while holding dagger to their heart.
That shadowheart ability to dodge or block a dagger stab is practically non-existent.
Or that the character I never liked has a cutscene where they explode for being an asshole.
Holy mother of..... Why can't we use this thing on boss encounters?!
Can someone tell me why would the artifact attack Laezel like that? If you kill Shadowheart and steal the artifact as Tav, it doesn't kill you. Even if you play as Laezel. Why would the Emperor do that in that specific context?
she's resting in pieces
over there
and there
and there
"I can't believe you defeated a githyanki warrior!"
Did you forget the entire warhost we just destroyed lol?
Might not have happened yet in that part of the game.
It's so weird they're blaming Shadowheart. Like... She's the one who got stabbed, Lae'zel then caused their explosion on her own doing.
Another reason to have beef with the Emperor 😂
DAAAAAAAAMN.... Yo, gibbies!
And boom goes the dynamite 😂
I read that as exploited, not exploded...
I really don't like how some companions are so judgemental when Shadowheart did nothing excepte get fucking stabbed. Lazel was the one that fucked around with the artifact and then found out. But they act like you slit here throat.
does she at least drop a mindflayer worm
Gone, reduced to cheeseburger.
i think Githyanki would be more like cooked Frogmeat.
This is why the group needs Tav
Nope. SH can just talk her way out of this, like Tav would. The uploader specifically chose to antagonize Lae'zel.
Lae’zel is surprisingly chill if you tell her everything when she confronts you. Just curious ig
To smithereens must be one of the worst ways to get blown.
Karlach sounds so sad
ugh wyll and Gale, really! no mention of the fact that the zealot who regularly threatens to kill just about everyone in the party, ambushed you in the middle of the night, proceeded to stab you and then BLEW HERSELF UP! But know it's all your fault because you kept a little secret. Because god knows you aren't keeping any secrets!
Do you not know the backstory?sharrans stole it the artifact. Laezel has been tasked to get it back.
@@colinnixon7739 Are you sure Laezel specifically is tasked with getting this artifact back?
guess the emperor prefers shadowheart lmao
Lazel getting blown up is sorta like the cat scene from Boondock Saints.

Can you get a minthara reaction by recruiting her in act 1 before this cut scene?
In my first (and current!) playthrough, I was in the middle of goblin genocide when a random drow jumped in and joined them. Turns out she had a mind flayer parasite...
Imagine my surprise a few days later when I see a video talking about her as a companion...
Oops.
@@tuxxyy1 Well only if you're evil.
@@Mithcoriel I just did a new run where I knocked Minthara out instead of killing her. I'm told I can pick her up in Act 2 now. I'll keep y'all posted :)
@@tuxxyy1 I thought this scene happens in act 1. Well you could delay it by not meeting Laezel for a while, or making sure Laez or SH are always dead each long rest
ok, haven't had THAT happen to me yet ...
Gotta make sure the protagonist doesn't talk, to pander to RPG elitists.
Shadowheart's a cleric. Can't she cast one of her spells on Lae'zel when being threatened. Not much of a cleric if not.
Confused.. why did she blow up?
I assume it was the artifact's way of protecting its owner (Shadowheart)
Because she is a filthy creature reviled by AO.
