Hotfix 22 went live just now. Almost no changes, but this one line is pretty hilarious with context: Fixed a bug causing you to get stuck in combat with the enemies on top of Moonrise Towers if you found a way to sneak into the Mindflayer Colony.
12:30 To your defense, the backpack glitch is actually even easier to do now, so if anything, you were just using a totally legit strategy before they 'fixed' the mistake prevent all players from having free stuff from the merchants. ;)
That little tip using the globe of invulnerability to prevent platforms from being destroyed just saved my honor mode run, so thank you! Amazing video as always! I genuinely can’t even imagine the strategizing involved in a run like this. Well done!
@@ProxyGateTactician I usually use the globe for opening the portal so I never even considered using it during the fight with the brain. I also would have never thought the globe would prevent the platforms from disintegrating but I suppose it does make sense.
@@stephnicole3078 same for me. I lost my honour mode run I few times(may have cheated and reloaded) because those platforms are so annoying! I never thought globe of invulnerability would work because I thought it would destroy the platform outside aswell lol. But I suppose yeah it does add invulnerability and the whole platform is one so I shouldve realised
This entire video is incredible but for some reason the part that made me laugh the hardest was trapping the Emperor behind several sofas so that he won't follow you up to the next area. It's like those pictures where people surround their dog with soda cans and the dog can't figure out how to step over them
"the action economy is kinda rough these days" I gotta remember that one also gg, I'm very surprised you didn't went for the Gale bomb route to finish act III
I almost did when my panther thing failed lol, but I really wanted to show off that method of how to invis up the brain still. So I powered through. Had a ton of fun with this playthrough though. For sure was the most fun of any run I did.
Holy fuck that is insane lmao. Its really impressive that every video of yours has such a fresh concept, really sets it apart from the rest of BG3 content. Goated channel
Thanks a lot! This one was easily the most enjoyable challenge run I've done, but it was also the most time intensive. Not sure if I'll go down the route of tracking every single action ever again lol
@@TRPLD any enemy* *that has 100HP or less, meaning you either have to wear down a strong enemy by a lot or waste it on a weak enemy, pwk sucks and I'll die on this hill lmao
It just shows, how much possibilities the game gives you to find alternative solutions. In other games, you often have one solution: "Attack and repeat until enemy dies" -- OK, most RPGs have at least one variation: Melee attack or ranged attack.
Your encyclopedic knowledge of this game is completely unreal to me. And your editing! You must have had hundreds of hours of gameplay footage from this one run alone, and you cut it down to a 20 minute video. Crazy.
That is insane. No idea how you even began to plan this! This channel has the most interesting and fun BG3 content on yt. I'm curious to see what you come up with next
I've got an idea i'm pretty excited to go for next. Another one I haven't seen anyone do for Baldur's Gate 3! Hoping it goes the way It is in my head. Thanks for the feedback also!
3:32 little trick: if I remember correctly (and it hasn't been changed), Glut doesn't trigger the mushrooms either, so you don't need to use things like mage hand. Maybe that'll be useful in the future ^^
Every time you post one of these I think to myself "I hope there's more like this to come, but surely he has to be running out of ideas by now" to which your following video responds with a big "NOPE! Have another one!" and happiness is restored! Your content never ceases to amaze and never fails to entertain!
This is by far the best challenge made because every other challenge basically revolves around breaking the game with a build that does 2000 damage. You are truly the top of you craft
Thanks that means a lot! This one certainly took the longest. Tons of planning, tracking my actions, and editing for each action used took ages. At least people seem to have liked this one a lot.
This is insane, well done sir. You have the most interesting and cool concepts for challenge runs and the videos are always impressive with not only how you complete the challenges but also the video making itself. Your effort does not go unnoticed
Thanks! I always wished I did DOS2 videos (I might do them later tbh). I actually used to do runs like this in that game, and just posted the results to reddit after. But started TH-cam for BG3. DoS2 has a much better soundtrack for videos imo, the BG3 music often goes too hard. Both are great though
This one was insanely fun, but the time to track everything was too much for sure. Easily the most enjoyable challenge though I wish there was a mod that could have tracked it for me
Honestly your content is so fascinating! I have learned more about BG3 watching your challenge runs then in my own research and playthroughs. You also add a level of humor to the game that is absolutely delightful! I can't wait to see what you choose to try next!
I broke the quest where you save the man from the explody mushroom cave by shooting the mushrooms before seeing him. He was vaporized by the blast but the quest didn't register him as dead.
Such an amazing run! I keep getting derailed when I try to play the game in a specific way I can't even imagine the amount of spreadsheeting you'd need to pull this off. Good thing I don't need to, thanks for providing it!
I’ve been subscribed to you for some months now but just wanted to say I love your vids, what you do, and your creative approach. You really give off Mittens Squad vibes and I’m 100% here for it.
This is giving me Mitten Squad vibes 🥺 Im so happy Ive found your channel, I absolutely LOVED the vibes of Mitten Squad videos, and was yearning for the same thing in Baldur's Gate. Im really grateful
I loved his videos too. Watched his content for years and always missed the videos when he stopped uploading. Was sad to hear that we'll never see another Mitten Squad video.
12:30 Vendor backpack glitch is still possible to get infinite money, you just have to sell back all their stuff after 'borrowing' it by shift clicking it and moving it all into a backpack in your inventory. All of their items for only the price of one.
Ohh really? Good to know. I had just noticed the method I did got fixed literally a day after I spent 3 hours doing it for that gold lol. Was glad I didn't slack on it
@@prismaone3164I got that one and it left me softlocked, had to bust out cheat engine to get myself out of it. Thank gods it wasn't my first attempt at Honour Mode, it would have felt like the dirtiest of wins.
I never comment on videos, but for some reason I’m just addicted to your content and I need more! I understand you probably can’t do this full time yet but I’m looking forward to the day you can!
I have been doing it full time actually haha I just spent 140 hours to do this one video T_T I really need to find a different way to edit these.... When I started the channel I was unemployed and in another country so I decided to go all in for this. (Other than December... I played WoW Everyday and did nothing Else)
I tried editing a few videos once and it was like for every 1 min of footage it was 3-8 min of editing. But I’m glad to hear you have the opportunity to do this full time if that’s what you want!
Your writing is really good too! (In the spirit of the run I'm trying not to use any praise I've used on your previous videos, lol. Woah! I just checked your previous video titles and you didn't put "insane" in any of them! Are you even a real youtuber?!)
lol thanks a bunch appreciate the kind words all the time Korakys! Not a real one yet, but maybe one day if I can break away from my crippling world of warcraft addiction I'll become one.
I've considered it, and may do that in the future, but if I do it would only be for something I genuinely like. The mobile game companies don't care if I like their product. They want me to read an ad to make them more $ and pretend I care about their awful game which gets money off of awful gaming practices so I really don't respect them. I'll hopefully be able to keep up quality content instead and not have to go down that route ever.
Balthazar would have been a struggle, but I think ur right now that I thought a bit about it. We would have been probably lvl 6 without having cleared moonrise pretty rough fight at that level
I don't know if this will be read by anyone, but in moonrise towers in the kitchen with the knols you can pass a few speech check with their handler. This causes the knols to turn on the handlers. Passing the check after that, you can actually have them as allies during the assault. Basically, you could have saved a few actions there and had back up later on.
Good point. I'd totally forgot about that interaction. If I remember right you don't get any XP for it is why I don't normally do it, but for this run it would have been wayyy smarter to do
I know it's been several months, but you can cheese the undead in the mountain pass with Sanctuary. They all have single target attacks so can do nothing but sit there and watch as you run towards act 2
The Zaith’isk’s stat hit is not permanent, it can be solved very easily. Simply have Lae’zel use a tadpole (any tadpole power will do) and it goes away
I actually tried this challenge,and I’m telling you Bard (since talking isn’t technically an action) Ranger( for all the different arrow in the game) Monk ( for all its unique classes) duergar rogue with different invisibilities Carried But the ones that carried and surprised me were Druid since all the animals are different and a Druid spore/necromancer wizard/necro cretic and necromancer of thay to team up with ranger and summon a bunch of summons who can do a lot of damage if they take up your whole screen and lag your PS😭 But what would win the battle is the fact I was a dark urge so I used power word kill on the brain after using my fist ever throw with my dwarf and its dwarfen thrower 3 unique arrows and all of the mindflayer abilities given to Orpheus
The gold exploit still works. You just need to move stuff from a vendor pouch to a pouch in your characters inventory. It will take some~ gold, but you overall net gain. It just goes all into your inventory so you need to exit out and put it all back into a pouch.
Bonkers! Amazing skill and admirable patience you have. I really shouldn't have watched it, but I was so enthralled I watched anyway, I already spoiled most of the game for myself ((
The enemies being able to attach you through your sanctuary spell in the section right before the brain stem drove me absolutely crazy on my honor mode run. Thought I was smart using Sanctuary and then greater invisibility to just walk passed everyone, nope. Attacked over and over, unable to even move because of that stupid phantasm spell. It absolutely has to be a bug
If it was just the brain mobs I could maybe understand, but phantasmal killer made no sense. Why can they cast that and root us? It triggered me too so much
theres still a very easy trader glitch, open a container and shift click drag everything into your inventory making sure to have a cheap item be the last thing selected and boom infinite money (the trader gets all the money for the items and you get all the items so you just sell back and forth)
not sure if it'll make a difference but at 1:06 the mind flairs should not move inside the wreck if you hide before approaching them and remain outside of their vision cones. This lets you walk right behind them for 1 action cost (being careful not to step on the fire). Then you can just free gale and fast travel shadowheart to you (you'll have to leave her behind as she can't take the hide action to get past the mind flairs).
@@ProxyGateTactician oh for sure, I had the benefit of hindsight when making that post. one other thing i might have tried would be to use shadowheart as bait and just run past them and flee from combat with no action cost. Then you can have withers revive her later, much like you did with astarion.
For the first combat with the intellect devourers (after the crash), there's a route to the right of the archway leading into the intellect devourer arena where you can go over the crashed nautiloid and into the wilderness area near where you find Gale. This would let you avoid those first six actions, though it would also miss the exp from them.
I’d like to think all of these challenge videos stemmed from 100 day challenge videos which stemmed from LukeTheNotable. This type of content is amazing
I suppose I usually have her hooked up with the Everburn Sword already by then. I also missed the part where you got her before the Creche, honestly the better way to go (didn't know this happens tbh)
@@dataraxia3520 Yea if you don't free her you can meet her at the Gith patrol (but if u long rest she dies there). You can find her in the mountain pass, and if you went straight to act 2 from gymforge then you will find her corpse in the shadow cursed lands.
My head canon is that opening a sphincter counted as an action and the video is 19 minutes of him explaining his strategy followed by 1 minute of him playing until he encountered the second sphincter.
Like with every video you post about BG3: You are a true legend of this game! I hope you get into the pay of range with your channels' size soon. Nice growth as you just startetd this channel with BG3. Maybe as something to think about: Maybe you want to split the videos in seperate acts to please the algorithm and at the same time actually removing the rhetorical part from the question "Can you beat BG3 by doing XY?" :D Maybe even make kind of an edited series out of a new run that includes more (funny) fails, but in the end that would mean more editing work and I can't know if that fits your plans. Anyway, I am looking forward to every video you post about BG3 cause everyone includes some insane new techniques I didnt know after 1000h.
Splitting for sure would make content quicker, but I always enjoyed watching other self imposed rules videos and hated when the creators split the video. So I won't be doing it. My next video idea is a similar idea, but should take less time as well. I hope people still enjoy it! It's something I haven't seen anyone attempt in Baldur's Gate 3 content so far. This video for sure took longer than I expected (almost 140 hours with gameplay, script, recording voice, editing etc)
@@ProxyGateTacticianYe the videos are the best when the creator enjoys them the most. Just wanted to say that I guess from time to time an open ending or even an unexpected failure makes good content too! Cause they are still offsprings of your insane limit testing xD Keep up the good work and thanks for letting us join your journey!
Minor observation: You completely wasted your singular use of Mage Hand trying to save Baelen Bonecloak. While Mage Hand IS a super easy way of getting his bag over to him since it doesn't set off the mushrooms, you can do so without an action by recruiting Sovereign Glut, who can ALSO walk through the mushrooms without triggering them and drag the bag over to Baelen the same way your Mage Hand would.
Have you ever tried playing bg3 without buying anything? As in, no trading or bartering, only using what you find in the environment, receive as rewards, or loot from dead bodies after battles?
@ProxyGateTactician omg no problem!!! I recently discovered your channel and tbh you're the best! I really like how you go over the game and stick to your rule. I didn't see other channels do so and also in a reasonable time for a video! Definitely deserves a subscribe!!!! ❤️

But what would win the battle is the fact I was a dark urge so I used power word kill on the brain after using my fist ever throw with my dwarf and its dwarfen thrower 3 unique arrows and all of the mindflayer abilities given to Orpheus
The gold exploit still works. You just need to move stuff from a vendor pouch to a pouch in your characters inventory. It will take some~ gold, but you overall net gain. It just goes all into your inventory so you need to exit out and put it all back into a pouch.
Good to know. I was so glad I'd already done it enough to get the gold I needed. They patched it out like the next day after I used it.
Bonkers! Amazing skill and admirable patience you have. I really shouldn't have watched it, but I was so enthralled I watched anyway, I already spoiled most of the game for myself ((
The enemies being able to attach you through your sanctuary spell in the section right before the brain stem drove me absolutely crazy on my honor mode run. Thought I was smart using Sanctuary and then greater invisibility to just walk passed everyone, nope. Attacked over and over, unable to even move because of that stupid phantasm spell. It absolutely has to be a bug
If it was just the brain mobs I could maybe understand, but phantasmal killer made no sense. Why can they cast that and root us? It triggered me too so much
I love your bg3 challenge runs. They are so creative and fun.
theres still a very easy trader glitch, open a container and shift click drag everything into your inventory making sure to have a cheap item be the last thing selected and boom infinite money (the trader gets all the money for the items and you get all the items so you just sell back and forth)
Good to know. Thanks for sharing! May come in handy one day
not sure if it'll make a difference but at 1:06 the mind flairs should not move inside the wreck if you hide before approaching them and remain outside of their vision cones. This lets you walk right behind them for 1 action cost (being careful not to step on the fire). Then you can just free gale and fast travel shadowheart to you (you'll have to leave her behind as she can't take the hide action to get past the mind flairs).
At the time I wanted to save hide, but for sure ur right. I could have used the monk version of hide later on.
@@ProxyGateTactician oh for sure, I had the benefit of hindsight when making that post. one other thing i might have tried would be to use shadowheart as bait and just run past them and flee from combat with no action cost. Then you can have withers revive her later, much like you did with astarion.
For the first combat with the intellect devourers (after the crash), there's a route to the right of the archway leading into the intellect devourer arena where you can go over the crashed nautiloid and into the wilderness area near where you find Gale. This would let you avoid those first six actions, though it would also miss the exp from them.
Oh wait, that would require jumping. Sorry, silly me.
I’d like to think all of these challenge videos stemmed from 100 day challenge videos which stemmed from LukeTheNotable. This type of content is amazing
You sir are a genius, no one else could have done this
Thanks so much!
If you convince the tieflings that Lae'zel is too dangerous, they'll free her for you. Then you just let NPC Lae'zel kill the tieflings
Is she strong enough to solo them? I haven't tried that method tbh
I suppose I usually have her hooked up with the Everburn Sword already by then.
I also missed the part where you got her before the Creche, honestly the better way to go (didn't know this happens tbh)
@@dataraxia3520 Yea if you don't free her you can meet her at the Gith patrol (but if u long rest she dies there). You can find her in the mountain pass, and if you went straight to act 2 from gymforge then you will find her corpse in the shadow cursed lands.
u sound a lot like mitten squad, rip to the guy fr
More than anything this proves what an insane amount of (uniquely named) abilities/actions this game has. Insane.
I think the devs said there are 600 at launch
Well done, subbed for future content
you are the best, please exist more
My head canon is that opening a sphincter counted as an action and the video is 19 minutes of him explaining his strategy followed by 1 minute of him playing until he encountered the second sphincter.
Like with every video you post about BG3: You are a true legend of this game!
I hope you get into the pay of range with your channels' size soon. Nice growth as you just startetd this channel with BG3. Maybe as something to think about: Maybe you want to split the videos in seperate acts to please the algorithm and at the same time actually removing the rhetorical part from the question "Can you beat BG3 by doing XY?" :D
Maybe even make kind of an edited series out of a new run that includes more (funny) fails, but in the end that would mean more editing work and I can't know if that fits your plans. Anyway, I am looking forward to every video you post about BG3 cause everyone includes some insane new techniques I didnt know after 1000h.
Splitting for sure would make content quicker, but I always enjoyed watching other self imposed rules videos and hated when the creators split the video. So I won't be doing it. My next video idea is a similar idea, but should take less time as well. I hope people still enjoy it! It's something I haven't seen anyone attempt in Baldur's Gate 3 content so far.
This video for sure took longer than I expected (almost 140 hours with gameplay, script, recording voice, editing etc)
@@ProxyGateTacticianYe the videos are the best when the creator enjoys them the most. Just wanted to say that I guess from time to time an open ending or even an unexpected failure makes good content too! Cause they are still offsprings of your insane limit testing xD
Keep up the good work and thanks for letting us join your journey!
i love these challenge runs they're always so creative and fun... i especially liked how you disposed of myrkul KDFJSGHSDJFG
7:42 good to know I’m not crazy! I had this happen to Astarion and he got stuck alive underneath the ground.
Minor observation: You completely wasted your singular use of Mage Hand trying to save Baelen Bonecloak. While Mage Hand IS a super easy way of getting his bag over to him since it doesn't set off the mushrooms, you can do so without an action by recruiting Sovereign Glut, who can ALSO walk through the mushrooms without triggering them and drag the bag over to Baelen the same way your Mage Hand would.
I had no idea about glut’s ability back then yeah. That would have been the play
"Decided Lae'zel isn't worth wasting an action point on,"
Same, honestly.
You are amazing, thank you for your videos
Sir. You have outdone yourself!
Thanks! I tried.
I would love to know if there were any actions/items that you did not end up using that surprised you. Really awesome video.
Fireball because I wanted to save it for the perfect moment and then I forgot about it lol
@@ProxyGateTactician omg thats so sad lol
Holy cow. It never occurred to me just how many different actions there are.
"How do three heroes in their 30s not have a single action between them?"
"They're--
The action economy is in shambles"
lol that's a good one
my head hurts from thinking how much time it took
lol right took about 140 hours total to create the video + planning + and playing and editing scripting etc
9:05 Should've known your Stalkers would blink :D
Have you ever tried playing bg3 without buying anything? As in, no trading or bartering, only using what you find in the environment, receive as rewards, or loot from dead bodies after battles?
Dude this is insane yet awesome!!!!
Thanks a ton!
@ProxyGateTactician omg no problem!!! I recently discovered your channel and tbh you're the best! I really like how you go over the game and stick to your rule. I didn't see other channels do so and also in a reasonable time for a video! Definitely deserves a subscribe!!!! ❤️
This is a really clever ruleset!
