BG1 how to kill Drizzt - Level 1 SOLO [NO cheating,bug abuse,exploits]

[@0ltun]

"solo" is the only word that had attracted me to this video as im recalling using summons every time i hear about killing drizzt

[@Addergebroed]

what I always do, I make sure all party members have bow and arrows (kivan and imoen in party). I position them on the small piece of land in the pond. Usually I have someone I want to kill off in my party for example Khalid or Montaron, etc... who then attacks Drizzt. Drizzt follows him to a spot where my archers can get a shot at him. Drizzt kills the excess npc, the rest keep on shooting and Drizzt stands there taking it until he dies because the pond doesn't let him get close. By the way, Kivan always gets the kill

[@horatio_]

this is really legit, nice work man... back in the day we used to have to load up his items with the debug menu haha thanks!

[@BabeTheAstrologer]

Isn't it an exploit to unrandomize randomized items?

[@ChesterRico]

Are you actually playing the game stretched like that or did the capture tool do that. My eyes!

[@LukasTorquemada]

He wrote that he gonna kill him solo, not by summoning a horde of Hobogoblins. That's the most common and simply way to beat Drizzt's ass.

[@Harkz0r]

I tried going toe-to-toe with Drizzt with both a Half-Elven Fighter/Mage and Dwarven Fighter/Cleric (the two strongest characters I can build in classic BG1) fully buffed with spells, potions, etc. They both could destroy Sarevok quite easily in melee, even the TotSC version. They STILL get annihilated by Drizzt, every time. That guy is just really annoying.

[@zeusblue9441]

Hmm Elven fighter/mage or human dual class fighter/mage should be able to kill him in a straight fight. I solo'ed him with a half-ling fighter/thief too, just keep using potions of invisibility and backstab him. All characters was of course at the xp cap of 161,000 (ToSC) I usually just cheese him early to get the great loot though. I consider the strategy used in this video to be cheesy, and it is the usual way i do it too.

[@CognizantCheddar]

I think the Enhanced Edition buffed Drizzt. Back in '98 or whatever, I distinctly remember my level 7 fighter with like -6 AC being able to kill Drizzt toe-to-toe, with some health potion chugging. I could get regular melee hits on him, in other words. But I tried it the other day in the EE with an even more overpowered dual-wielding Berserker, and Drizzt was much more difficult to hit. Beamdog seems to have increased his AC, or something.

[@zeusblue9441]

I wouldn't know. I haven't played the EE. I generally use Tutu, although i prefer the original. Problem is that the graphics engine used in BG1 runs poorly on modern systems, i have considered using dosbox or something similar.

[@andtalath]

CognizantCheddar: TotsC hasted him unless I'm mistaken. I know they did with Sarevok. The only class that should be able to beat him fairly 1v1 is fighter/mage, and, well, that is due to mirror image.

[@zeusblue9441]

Klas Mattsson Any reason why you can't backstab him? Works fine on Sarevok.

[@kelvincasing5265]

If you attack him ranged after he attacks the gnolls, then he'll go hostile to you. If you then invis, the gnolls will continue to attack him but he doesn't fight back. Wait 10 mins and he's dead - plus you didn't get the rep hit from killing him yourself!

[@Arrynek01]

This is how I finished the game, when my top equip tank died on two hits during final battle. Great minds think alike.

[@robodude5196]

I've never seen that portrait before. That looks cool. Have you seen any other portraits for Baldur's Gate? I've seen quite a few cool portraits for some of the other characters of the game but never that purple guy. I would've made him half-elven.

[@kubeface115]

That's a character from World of Warcraft. Still think it's cool? It's pretty easy to make your own portraits, but this pack isn't too bad: www.moddb.com/games/baldurs-gate-enhanced-edition/addons/super-ultimate-portrait-pack

[@DragovianMaster]

Wow... never thought it could be done. Too bad it won't work on BGEE.... But you could conjure more hobgoblins as the first 5 ones go down. Maybe I'll try it later. Thanks anyway! (always hated to think he couldn't be killed!)

[@tomswage6217]

not truly solo is it haha

[@xaped8006]

seriously that's very bright! for my part I was waiting my cleric was at a big level for making skulls, only one spells was making the job

[@arnabmukhopadhyay7078]

Wait! Illidan murdered Drizzt....now i've seen everything

[@ProfessorVuubik]

Just like what happened to Zack in FF7:CC No matter how strong you are, fighting an army 1v1 is utter suicide.

[@aetherbard77]

You killed him at level 1 with an army of summons. And you kept reloading to get hobgoblins. How is that not exploiting the game? Thanks for wasting that 13 minutes of my life.

[@RenzitoARG]

It manipulates the rolls of the wands dice until he gets a roll that he likes... That's bug exploiting. Not a single GM of D&D would let you reroll a casting throw if you dont like it.

[@dcc1974]

Kyew1969: only one of his scimitars can be pickpocketed, and armor any NPC is wearing can't be stolen, either. The tactic in this video is one of only a few effective means of wasting Drizzt and scoring his swag.

[@markotora7274]

Dont kill Drizzt, just steal his weapon. Drizzt is a hero!

[@nischuma6910]

purge the drow!

[@Kainlarsen]

Rubbish. This is pretty much an exploit.

[@bumblebee2511]

+Kainlarsen Save-scumming IS a straight up exploit. One of the very worst for that matter.

[@Damocles178]

In the original BGI pretty much every opponent could be swamped and killed in this manner no matter how strong; however if you have the Enhanced Edition you can't do this (Monster Limit is set to 5 just like BGII). Ha mind you it's probably just as well you didn't get the XP for killing him (Your reputation actually drops by 10 normally too). And you still got his stuff (Which is probably why you wanted to kill him in the first place) :)

[@NeilusNihilus]

What stuff does he drop? It is random?

[@Damocles178]

He drops a Scimitar +3, Scimitar +5 and Mithril Chain Mail +4.

[@NeilusNihilus]

Damocles178 right thanks. It has been so long since I played this game (on release).

[@nzeusman8215]

No "ABUSE" lmao!

[@dcc1974]

Why do you suppose your PC didn't get that 12k experience for killing him? I didn't think a summoned monster stole your experience, even if it dealt the death blow.

[@andtalath]

Probably poison. It's bugged in a number of ways in both games.

[@bobnuheart8804]

question: how do you turn on the attack rolls?

[@Banefane]

I loved the possibilities in BG series!

[@Banefane]

Banefane still love :D!

[@Zomesura]

@@Banefane Do you still love it?

[@Banefane]

​@@Zomesura Yes and I am glad that the game is still supported by mods. Also Beamdog is working on an update : forums.beamdog.com/discussion/80867/road-to-2-6-planned-patch-items-windows-macos-linux/p1

[@josealef749]

which Drizzt Do'Urden class? I want to create the same character in game

[@ZeroMalarki]

I don't think this works in patched games as summoning is restricted.

[@TheFatMob]

Well, this looks like an exploit to me! Same as killing him with a thief's traps.

[@michalmazur6806]

Well, you can kill him solo, with your main character only - if you finish the game multiple times with the same character you can have even 25 str dex & con. All you need to do (playing as a warrior) in hand-to-hand combat is to deliver him one hit, then run away few meters then attack him when he approaches :) Dont engage him in a normal way, coz he delivers series of blows. Takes about 5-6 hits to finish him off

[@andtalath]

That would be exploit.

[@nischuma6910]

@@andtalath no its hit and run

[@thousandyoung]

Because everyone knows how broken bows are in BG1.

[@chuckfreeman1336]

Ok somehow or another I survived his kill attack spells and I seem to be killing him very very slowly now. Update to come.

[@LennieEkselius]

Drizzt YOU ARE NOT PREPARED!

[@Excaliberete]

BGEE team released a patch: "You cannot control more than 5monsters at any given time." Gonna have to find another way now :(. . . .

[@AnxiousBlue]

Disappointed, title misleading.

[@willblais2594]

You cheated exploited it and you cannot summon that much plus you are at lv 1 and on the computer version. You did not do it solo

[@TibiaOTarena]

watch the other vid on enhanced edition, no summons

[@samuelrosenbalm]

Inspired by Jesus. How?

[@TibiaOTarena]

can't you just run the old version then patch it when you are done? :p

[@MarcinObuchowski]

Man was the bow broken in original BG I :D

[@Metalhammer1993]

+Marcin Obuchowski (Czeladnik) yeah remember all the special arrows. they were OP. and well in the EE bows were even more broken^^ as you had the Ranger kit Archer with its absurd firing ratio.

[@Dimothein]

The numbers win even Drizzt do'Urden :)

[@TibiaOTarena]

Ok so I found out how to kill him level 1 Enhanced editon (no use of summoning staff) for any class :D will upload that shit tomorrow if anyone reads this,

[@christianpierce9724]

illidan lives on!

[@hjalmarzolachristensen8080]

Cool! gonna try this out:P

[@annatar3]

you get no exp that way

[@Eternalamon]

he broke the game lmao

[@vieri031]

No experience gained ?

[@sergiuszs]

vieri031 cause the goblins killed him

[@ramazantekin4144]

hahaha. now you owe me a keyboard and a screen:P

[@Can0fpepsi]

siiiick

[@Levelord92]

What is quicksave button?

[@andtalath]

I think it's not enabled by default. But usually "q".

[@sergiuszs]

Klas Mattsson it is enabled by default

[@andtalath]

You sure it is in vanilla BG1? I know it is in all later iterations, but the first one lacked a lot of polish.

[@sergiuszs]

yes, I'm pretty sure :]

[@Metalhammer1993]

+sergiuszs yeah quick sae was always on q you didn´t habe the quick load. which is in EE for example on L. dunno if it ws in normal BG2 already

[@ambakaro]

Sacrilegio!!!

[@mozzmarket]

i just surrounded him with monster spells

[@AX-su6rp]

why i can see that much unlikes??? this tutorial is good

[@zachstooks3938]

This game looks like it sucks. Too damn complicated to Enjoy

[@RenzitoARG]

You can always play tic-tac-toe...

[@TheAzureblaze]

THis game is classic as fuck. Takes skill and intelligence to play! So rewarding :)

[@anonymous133711]

lol illidan
