- This is not another general guide; it's a collection of specific tricks and strategies (with maybe a few exploits) to help you through Act 1 in BG3. The info is focused on Honour mode, but many of the tips also apply to lower difficulties. I hope at least some of these are not old news, yet.

I made a short follow-up video to cover some of the comments I got on this one: th-cam.com/video/UogU1IM8HjU/w-d-xo.html
And Act 2 here: th-cam.com/video/W3A74hI6xVw/w-d-xo.html
Such a high quality video, avidly waiting for act 2 and 3! Really enjoyed this content, it looks like a lot of hard effort put into it.
They do take a long time to make, but Act 2 video is in the works. I appreciate the patience hahah
I some how glitches myrkl. I exploded caustic barrels at beginning and he no longer at attacked. Nor would dame Ayline
Honour mode causes people to play the game in the least honorable way possible.
😂😂
xD you need all help you can get
ironic for sure
So true. The amount of times I had to escape the fight with my rogue to revive the party in act 1's hardest fights (like Owlbear, Gnolls etc.) is embarrassing
Gnolls is doable but owlbear calling Mate is just insane. I barely lived by a thread.
If you know a merchant will die, sell him an empty bag and put all his ownings inside. when he die , you'll loot the bag with all you put in it.
Any idea if you can do this on console?

@@GuilhermeSartorelli you can't, PC gamers get whatever they want 🙄🙄

@@ShengFink yeah 🤭
You can also cast calm emotions on your party before tbe Harpie fight to completely bypass their charm. The harpy will remain singing and essentially be useless during the fight.
Excellent point; I probably shoulda mentioned that one, too. I focused on Silence because I wanted to sing its praises throughout the video, for how versatile it is.
That's so dope. I haven't used that spell a single time
@@SlimXG silence is by and large a much more versatile spell and more useful in more situations! Just love to highlight the much more niche spells. Especially if you are able to easily swap them out with a Cleric.
@@vorsadelta7752that's the best part of prepared Spellcasters!
Calm Emotions is freaking clutch in Honour Mode. Never used it before, now I had it save my ass multiple times already. Beyond making the harpy figt trivial, a single Calm Emotions (which has a good AoE and range) removes the Gnoll's Frenzy, so that they will never get their multi-attack. Also removes rage from enemy barbarians (though that's not as important in my experience)
The 2nd spell I can't believe I never used before is Enhanced Ability. I have it on my bard and Shadowheart, meaning just like that I can get advantage in every ability I need (mostly charisma), and can keep up to two active for a whole day! Yes, it requires concentration, but one spell slot is well worth suceeding important checks. Especially since the Friends cantrip is dangerous in Honour Mode, as it can aggro npcs, get you imprisoned and frop reputation. Had to restart a whole run because Friends wore off on Kagha after I saved Arabella, which immediately made her activate the Rite of Thorns and Tiefling purge. Never used Friends ever since. :P
Give us Act 2 and 3. This was amazing... one of the best BG3 videos out there!
Quite the high praise. >.> Thank you. It'll take some time to finish, but I've started writing notes for the Act 2 video.
@@SlimXG Most BG3 videos are either challenges or speedruns. Shorts often funny moments or quick guides.
You made a full list (probably still lacking due to the huge amount of content) of secrets and cheese strats. I would love to see more videos about that. Not only honor mode but everything.
@@sleyana_ "Everything," you say, hmm
Sir... you got talent. Use it. Get a better mic soon and practice some voice acting. Your edit and comedy is great. @@SlimXG
@@sleyana_ Better mic is essential, yes (I had to talk verrrry carefully and do many re-records for nearly every line in the video to compensate for the lousy properties of my cheap old mic). But, voice . . . acting? o_O
My jaw dropped on the shovel tip. I facepalmed immediately. 300 hours in and now I find this out.
This is easily one of if not the best bg3 videos I’ve watched. My recommended really knocked it out of the park with this one. Exactly the type of video I’ve been looking for as I attempt honor mode
Please make one for acts 2 and 3 but I know that’s gonna be a huge undertaking
Well that's quite the compliment (though maybe you've just watched a lot of terrible BG3 videos...)
The feedback on this Act 1 video has been surprisingly positive, so I've started writing out notes for Act 2 (and looking into getting a better mic). But yeah, it will take some time to make the video. Maybe you will have successfully finished your whole Honor run by then!
i wish i knew some of thee before becuse ive been brute forcing my way through the game lol i just hit level 5 and decided to fuck up the goblin camp. this video was great honestly and super super helpful. all the underdark tips is going to be used for sure @@SlimXG
@@SlimXGhonour * we spell things correctly in English
Random trivia: That clip of, "Silence!" is from a Jack in the Box commercial, and that's Steve Valentine who played Alistair in the Dragon Age games (as the Earl of Sandwich)
love the ping on the invisible enemies!
Yeah that one is huge. Makes me think they will patch that out somehow though.
There is also a dagger on the body of someone in the worg pens. Its makes it so all goblins have disadvantage to attack you. Very good for the fights against the goblin bosses and cleaning up the camp after
WOW. Easily one of the best information guides to cruising through Act 1. Even the flow of progression you gave clearly has a lot of thought put into it, particularly the Myconid Colony up to the Creche part.
MASSIVE thanks for the Hag tips too. I've always hated not being able to get the jump on her so I'm very delighted to know that you can still do that yourself.
The hag fight is probably the most complex encounter in Act 1. For all the things I said about it, there's way more I coulda said, but the video is already long enough hahah. Thanks.
@@SlimXG I try to avoid meta-gamimg on most encounters whenever possible, and I handwave that as them not seeing the enemy beforehand- like an actual inverse ambush like the Spectator. (which you also gave a GREAT tip for)
However now that I think about it in retrospect, it's not actually cheesy to get the jump on Ethel. After all, it's very obvious that reaching that part of the Hag's lair is a setup for an incoming fight, and by that point, the party is already made aware that Ethel can go invisible- so it's not "metagamey" for the player to try and one up that.
For the Spectator, I've yet to think of a way to essentially "excuse" the party reverse-ambushing it, so perhaps I won't follow the trick you gave even if it's doable. It's not a super hard encounter anyway.
My first time playing the game, I just naturally snuck around to the bottom and into Ethel's room, because it felt like the roguish thing to do. I still ended up stumbling into her and getting surprised, since I didn't have Volo's eye yet, that first time. But I had already clicked the button to lower Mayrina, so I didn't even know about Ethel burning the cage until I saw it in a video, later.
And yeah, the Spectator fight is obviously designed specifically to surprise you, so there's no way to avoid it in any "realistic" way. The trick in the video is from the mindset of, "Hey, you've done the fight the normal way before, so here's a new way to try it."
Maybe in Honour mode it is harder or impossible. But I sneak around the side of the tea house. From there it is possible to sneak attack Ethel whilst she is telling Mayrina to eat up. A single lightning arrow from stealth does 150 damage and kills her midst transformation. You shoot Ethel and roast the Hag. Looting the rest of her lair is a doddle from there on.
I’ve listened to hundreds of BG3 videos, and after all that, I’m impressed by how many things this video taught me about this game.
Why these tips might seem simple to those already smashing honour mode, I have been waiting for something like this. I was just saying to my house mate how flooded youtube is with late game builds (and silly click bait) that have no relevance to someone trying to push through honour mode. I just lost my third honour mode at the end of Act 2, and these tips are just going to make Act 1 a lot smoother and more fun as I progress through and try new things. Thanks heaps brother! Calm voice, and just simple and easy things to do that aren't exploits, I bloody love it! Keen for an Act 2 or Act 3 if you ever get around to it!
Wellll, some are on the exploity side, but I tried not to lean too heavily into that. =) Thank you for the kind words.
I guess this is the difference between someone who has been playing D&D since THACO vs newer players. For those of us with more than 20 years of DMing experience or playing experience, it just seems impossible to struggle on honor mode. Legit the hardest parts are the damned skill checks. I legit lost both Jaheira and Minsc because I got 10 d20s, ALL OF THEM under 4. That being said, I've turned karmic dice back on. I can't handle any more 1 in 1 million failures.
Honestly, just knowing the mechanics is enough to make honor mode super easy. Some classes are clearly better than others. Some classes only require a level 1 dip. You have a rogue? That's a Rogue/Fighter until it's level 3. You have a wizard? Naw, it's a level 1 cleric / x wizard. These little mechanical staples make the early game a breeze without cheesing people onto death spots and carrying them all across the map. Do you have a problem with respecing characters every level? I don't. My archer (sometimes... very rarely) can be respeced every level. (Fighter 1), (Rogue 1 / Fighter 1), (Sword Bard 3), (Assassin 3, Fighter 1), (Ranger 5), etc.
Another super important thing that I believe (I have no data on this, I simply believe it on faith since I lack evidence to support my claim), people are too attached to their main character. When I play, EVERY CHARACTER is the main character. Every little extra thing you do for your main character, I do that for the extras. Gear is always given out to whichever character it supports best. I've noticed many players treat secondary characters as left overs. Best stuff goes on main, then secondary characters get left overs. Sometimes my main character has the cheapest most worthless gear because their class just doesn't require gear the way the others do.
Honour mode is pretty chill if you build your characters reasonably well. It's not necessary to fully min max but you can if you want.
But the main thing is to know your encounters. Understanding how to clear the major encounters and making preparations for them makes honour mode, muuuuuch easier
@@jfast8256 please could you write me down a level 5 build for act 1 and a level 8 per act 2 ? Something that go online early and can cover minor mistakes
@@gabri-immortale Sure
Healer
Strong Heart Halfling
Str 8, Dex 16, Con 14, Int 8, Wis 12, Cha 16
1. Bard - Persuasion / Deception / Perception (Urchin)
Cantrips > V. Mockery, Mage Hand
Spells > Healing Word, Feather Fall, Long Strider, Speak with Animals
2. Cleric (life) - Heavy Armor, Sanctuary
3. Lore Bard - Acrobatics/Medicine
Expertise (Sleight of Hand/Persuasion)
Spell > Dissonant Whispers
4. Bard > Spell > Eagle's Splendor
5. Bard > Hold Person (Charisma +2)
6. Bard > Hypnotic Pattern
7. Bard >Glyph of Warding, Mass Healing Word, Counter Spell
8. Cleric > Preserve Life (24 HP to all) every short rest (You can delay this cleric level as long as you would like)
9-12 is bard, magical secrets should be summon spells for more minions to absorb. Mephits and Elementals
Gear to look out for.
Zevlor > Hell riders gloves (healing gives 1/2 damage for 2 rounds) Let the human knock him out so you can steal these off him
Volo > Ring of... something (Healing gives bless for 2 rounds) While talking to him, look at bottom left of screen, there should be button to trade with him. Buy this ring
Alfira's lock box > Bard's Hat (not the greatest, but free healing with your bardic inspiration)
This will keep your party alive. If shit hits the fan, this should be able to give you enough space to flee on honor mode. However, you still need your companions to pull their weight. So I'll add in 2 builds that can be used on any companion
Monk
NOTE!!!!!!! this requires buying 20-30 Elixers of Strength off Auntie Ethel.
Any Companion (Astarion is best LATE GAME if you let him ascend)
Str 8, Dex 17, Con 15, Int 8, Wis 16, Cha 8
1-6 Monk Open Hand
Level 4 get Tavern Brawler (x2 str dmg so +10 dmg per hit)
7-10 Rogue Thief (Extra Bonus Action)
Level 10 get Alert
11-12 Monk
Level 12 Get Athletics (+1 Dex)
You can swap Athletics/Alert if you like. Figure out if you want to move first or have godly jumps and +1 ac
This is your boss killer. Knock down the boss with Topple and just pummel them to death. Ki Points come back on a short rest or a song of rest. Very useful in honor mode.
Gear to look out for. At Creche, the human woman sell some body robes that will last for awhile. Any gloves that add damage. At goblin camp, the movement speed ring.
Ranged Attacker
Any companion
Str 8, Dex 16, Con 14, Int 8, Wis 12, Cha 16
Swords Bard > 6
Two Weapon Fighting
Level 4 grab either Dex +2 or Sharpshooter
If you get sharpshooter, only activate it if your accuracy is 75%+ Turn it off if your accuracy is below 50%
Spells, focus on stun spell like hold person and tashas laugh
Gear to look out for. x2 +1 hand cross bows from Dammon. Gloves of Archery, Helmet of arcane acuity and the best medium armor you can find like Yuan ti Armor. Rings, look out for anything that increases damage like adding acid damage.
This group synergizes pretty well as you get x4 short rests and by level 5/6 all 3 characters get ki points/inspiration back.
This leaves you 1 free open spot for another character.
The level of detail in this game is incredible. It feels like a lot of the Act 1 exploits could have actually been planned by the devs before they even thought of Honour Mode!
You can also get the brand from warlock near gut in the chapel if you kill gut. So if you forget your camp peeps (like I do, EVERY time) you can run them though the branding ceremony. Everyone disapproves of that….
22:32 Man, that's an amazing tip. I remember just firing random arrows till I hit the invis on one of my playthroughs.
Haven't tried honour mode yet but I have played through 4 times: still found about half a dozen+ tips I've never seen before. Hoping you complete Act 2 and 3 vids before I get back to BG3 for an honour run. Well done!
Same, ive beaten it several times, and many of these tricks i had no clue about. Because I played the game a bit too much im taking a break, but plan to do a honor mode when i dust it off again. This video was practically a detailed cheat mode walk through of act 1. Makes me think you could almost do honor mode with the worst class build following these tips.
very helpful video, great job man. These truly were tips I had not heard elsewhere, and a good few of them were very helpful. Your strategy made the Matriarch and Grym fights very safe and clean. I really look forward to the act 2/3 video!
Would love to see your Honor Mode Act walkthroughs for 2 and 3 as well. Good stuff! I've cleared Honour myself and have come up with my own strategies for pathing and for each encounter. Learned a lot from yours! Pretty high quality video too. Hope your viewers/subs rise. You deserve it :)
There were so many small little items that I had never seen or heard of before! Very impressive!
this video is so impressive. how larian came up with and actually implemented all these tiny little secrets and interactions and how the playerbase are so creative to experiment with every mechanic, interaction and event this thoroughly.
great work❤
This is by far one of the best tip videos I've seen for BG3. Great video production and scripting, keep up the good work!
Easily the best BG3 tips guide I’ve seen. Not only did you make me discover a couple of things I didn’t know, but you also made me reflect on some gameplay mechanics that I didn’t think about!
There's a more consistent way to get Voss' Sword at the entrance of the mountain pass. A level 5 Beast Master Ranger's bear has an attack that disarms without a check (as long as it hits), so you just make the bear invisible, bless it, then pray for the 80% with advantage to hit. You'll have to fight but you get the sword far more consistently. Of course this would likely require a respec (very few people use beast master), but 200ish gold for both respecs tends to be worth it for the best sword in the game for Lae'zel.
(especially if you can just steal it back from Withers anyway)
This is one of the best BG3 videos I've ever seen! Very useful and comprehensive, can't wait for another video!
Thank you very much. Just so happens I uploaded another, much shorter video today, with a few more Act 1 bits. The full Act 2 video is in the works, though will take a while to complete.
This is my first time seeing your videos, absolutely love them, seeing people give advice and new ways to play bg3 really makes me fall in love with this game again and again! Thanks mate! You got a follower and a like!
Thank you! I'm working on a video for Act 2 that is more detailed than this one, so I hope you enjoy it as well.
I've just started the game and watched a whole bunch of videos. This is easily the most entertaining one so far. I can tell it would have taken you ages to put it all together and it's very smart how you've humorised your failures. Looking forward to what you produce in the near future
Much appreciated. And, yes, these do take a long time to make (the Act 2 video is probably going to take longer). And yeah, an example is how many tries it can take to get a clip of, say, failing the same 55% spell cast three times in a row hahah.
Extremely useful and informative video, would definitely love to see more for acts 2 and 3!
Amazing and informative video, looking forward for act 2 and act 3!
This was a great video, i've just started BG3 and I'm amazed at all the stuff you can do. This will surely help me and will make me go back to a1 to grab some sneaky hidden gear. Thanks a lot and keep it up.
my jaw dropped when someone dropped a potion on the grimforge hammer area, then attacked Grym to make it come and wollup them... and another character pulled the lever, which down both Grym and the player, but because the potion also got hammered it splashed it's healing essence on the player who was immediately back up.
Crazy specific stuff. Great guide!
So keen to see an Act 2, these are the most helpful honour mode tips I've come across by far. Clean run to Act 2 just by following your guide! Cheers
That's a relief that it was actually helpful in practical application hahah. Thanks
This is a fantastic video! I have beaten honor mode and done countless runs through the game on other difficulties and there were plenty of things in this video I did not know. Thank you for putting this together. you earned my like and and subscribe. I look forward to seeing your Act 2 & Act 3 videos.
Thank you very much, and I'm glad you liked it. I'm going into much more detail in the Act 2 video (which is why it's taking so long to make).
You have earned a subscriber out of me, literally a ton of useful tips and tricks that I haven’t seen elsewhere
Absolutely mindblowing. People have already sung you praises so leaving a comment just to do my share. Thanks a lot.
This is an incredible video. It was basically my guide for getting through Act 1 and I NEED you to make an Act 2 + 3! Definitely earned subscriber
Thank you very much
Actually all of this info is very informative. Didn't know about the sword in the rest, gonna need to grab it on my next playthrough. Thanks for all the info
Great tips. I'll be definitely trying some of these things out in order to skip crappy encounters and gain some advantage. Thanks
These tips have been great during this newest attempt for me. Thank you-would love to see Act 2 and 3!
Thank you! Act 2 video will be done soon(ish).
I have had multiple play Throughs, and I’ve still learned an incredible amount from this single video. Honestly, this is the most informative video I have ever watched. Subscribed.
That's quite the praise. Thank you
I knew most of those tricks and items but you did add a few I didn't. Thanks. I look forward to your video's on Act 2 and 3.
I learned... so many things thank you so much for this, I was struggling a lot with Act 1. I'd love to have a video like this for Act 2 and 3 as well!!
You're quite welcome; I'm glad it helped
This is fantastic, I've just got to the grove on my first honor run and need all the help I can get 😅 Love this style of video!
Some very good tips here that I didn't know even after several playthroughs. Great editing too.
it's actually insane how many things i missed while playing through the game THREE DIFFERENT TIMES! I'm on my fourth playthrough right now doing Honor mode and I'm both shocked and saddened about the amount of strong items I missed out on already lol. Great video!
The quality of these videos is really good! Keep it up - you should be a much larger creator
Man so many videos with Honor Mode tips but this one is honestly the best! Great job! Subscribed! Also, 17:09 made me laugh so hard 😂😂
I've watched this video like 5 times.. and still learn something new, so thanks!
You'll get to the best stuff on the 9th viewing
Probably one of the best guides out there.
great video! especially the fight strategies.
great video, the pinging and portrait ping to find invisible enemies was great
The shovel tip was so unreal, I had no idea you could do that!
what a great video! To the point, informative, funny, well done all around
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. (And don't miss the Act 2 video >.>)
Act 2 and 3 versions of this would be great! Subbed!
I love the Gith Creche trick. Thanks. I shall have to try that.
I had to subscribe - 1000h in with the time before release, i still got many things out of your video. Thank you.
One of the most useful videos I’ve seen for bg3 thanks
This video is great, I’ve played this game loads and am currently finishing the game on my honor solo run. And there’s still stuff here that I didn’t consider!
This video is incredible, genuinely some really clever techniques showcased for each boss and situation! This will do wonders for my honor mode run, thank you! I also like how you showcase multiple solutions to each boss (i.e. talking to Voss first or alternatively kidnapping and yeeting him lmao) so that you can still roll-play and cheese less if you'd prefer that.
That sort of balance of tactics was exactly what I was going for. Especially when I had something on the more cheese/exploit side, I wanted to give a more traditional alternative as well
Such a great video! Thanks a lot! ❤
This was very good information! Thank you for this
The karlach monk trick is sick nice video
After three playthroughs i didnt think was much I hadnt found or tried. Man was I wrong. Awesome video! Thank you!
Thanks! I need all the help I can get.
this is a great video, and wonderful ad for the silence spell
One of the best videos I've ever watched. Simple and pretty. Unbelivable Im deep in honour mode but I never figured out how to move rocks...until now
What an amazing video! Please do the other acts too.
This is the best bg3 video I’ve ever seen. I thought honor mode was too much for me, now after watching this I really want to give it a try, you just gave me bardic inspiration 🎲
Hahah well thank you very much. I'm glad I could help. I'm working on a video for Act 2 that will go into much more detail than this one. I hope it helps, as well.
@@SlimXG You’re my hero. I won’t miss the next video. Thank you so much!
This vid is awesome man these are actually cool unknown tips.
this is exactly what I was looking for!
there were loads of magic items that i've never seen before that i'll happily be grabbing next run thanks to this, especially that ring of pickpocket and stealth
I’ve beaten honor mode a while back but I cannot believe I didn’t know about the different route on the beach as well as the first Harper chest 😂 I always go fight the brains then grab the silver pendant after goblin gate. Awesome tips broski 🤙
Thanks for this, my brother, gonna use this guide for my 2nd playthrough if I need it.❤
What a great video, loved it. Thanks for tips.
This is exactly what I was looking for!
Best bg3 tips video so far. Thank you!
Thank you for watching!
Some great tips there, thanks for sharing!
After priestess Gut goes to her room and even after you kill her, you can still get your brand from a warlock Greez, right by her starting location. No need for conversation switches.
This video is amazing, so many good tips!
gods man loved the spider trick and the early brain trick ngl!
I never found that chest at the begining. Great video!
Amazing tips, deffo want to see this for acts 2 and 3
Great video. Thanks a lot
This was awesome! Played the game for over 700 hrs and did not know most of them. Pls make more
Act 2 video is in the works. Thanks for the support!
@@SlimXG
Wow, i gotta say, well done mate. So often i see videos of "things you didnt know" that are things i definitely did. Ive fine combed this game, but you're the first to give so cool ideas. Gonna be honest, i was like "dam, why didnt i think of that." For the feather fall to Karlack. Its nothing game breaking but its clever. Very good video. Earnt my sub.
It's the best way to avoid the pain of not having Karlach in your party as soon as possible!
(Or killing her to get a nice robe as soon as possible)
Awesome video ! will be waiting for the act 2 and 3 =)
Please do more videos for act 2 and 3!! This was phenomenal stuff
Thank you! Act 2 video should be out soon(ish).
For the Hag, you can also start with create water to make her wet, to tell her apart from the illusions.
For Grym, have a throwing Barbarian up top and one invisible char yanking the lever when lava runs out.
You did an awesome job with this video! I've already cleared honour mode, but i really wish i had this video before i did because it would have made the early game much easier.
Time for honour run #2!
Incredible tips man
this is the content we need! thank you!!
I am glad you are bringing up the use of silence, my friends just thought it was a useless spell.
very good thank you, love to see act 2,3!
Your Cresh` strategy is awesome i m gonna do it!
These tips are sick, thanks!
Nice guide!
Pro tips right there! Good video ❤
This video is extremely helpful. I do solo Honour runs myself (haven't finished yet but have gotten deep into act 2 on my best attempt) and there's lots of helpful build-agnostic tips in here. Would love to see a video for act 2/3 as well.
Yeah, I picked the classes for the video mostly at random, with the exception of Karlach as a monk (to show off the Soul Coin trick). I tried not to lean into too much class-specific stuff, and some of the spells I used could be replicated with scrolls. Having a source of Prone sure is useful, though.
I mostly run as Tavern Brawler Eldritch Knight, so aside from rituals pretty much all my spells come from scrolls. Most scrolls are plentiful enough for defensive buffs like Blur, E&G, etc. but there are some situationally godlike scrolls that are obnoxiously rare.
Thinking specifically of Knock here to open up Balthazar's office in the Gauntlet. I scummed like 10 partial rests trying to buy one from Roah Moonglow to no avail. But it's been a while since I got back to act 2, so I'll have some time to think about other ways to deal with him with this build. @@SlimXG
Great job man
Great tips! Would love to see an act 2 and 3…especially 2 because there’s at least 3 or 4 fights that can’t be cheese’d with dialogue.
The Assault of Moonrise Towers if you ally and join the Harpers, comes to mind.
Thank you kindly, and I'm workin' every day on the Act 2 video. Haven't gotten to Moonrise Towers yet, but I can promise you there will be plenty of tricks in there.
Ty for the tips homie.
I almost closed vid on the nth time ive seen someone say command drop everburn, but Im glad I stayed because the bliss spores before creche yllek/necromancy of thay is such a good idea.. and im thinking paired with shapeshifter boon would be almost gaurenteed awakened on honour mode. Fingers crossed we make it outta act 1 with this one xd
Hahah yeah, I started the video like that as a joke on how common that tip is, hoping people would watch at least 10 seconds . . As for Awakened, remember that if your main character is the one sitting in the machine, all the rolls are saving throws, so Shapeshifter's Boon doesn't help.
@SlimXG confirmed tho, it was guaranteed awakened AND thay. No joke.. elixir of heroism and bless paired with bliss spores. Clutch. Rolled 30s on most all of it, except to use inspo on thay.
Edit: there was Rest between switching zones between mountain pass and the underdark, but I don't think they counted as long rest cause I didn't use supplies. Iunno.
After finishing the creche, Voss will force a rest when he comes to your camp. But if it wasn't that, then I dunno either.
