Hey, Xasra here! If you're into intense challenges, deep strategy, and nail-biting gameplay, you've come to the right place. Ever wondered what Baldurs Gate 3 would look like with just ONE character battling the odds? Let's find out together! SMASH THAT SUBSCRIBE BUTTON to follow this epic solo journey!
This my first time trying this style of video, and I've learned a lot of things through adobe premiere and mechanics of Baldur's Gate 3. If you guys do enjoy this style of content, feel free to leave a comment on what other challenge runs I could do. I'm currently planning on doing my first Dark Urge playthrough once I finish this run for all three acts of the game, and would love to have you join me.
🔗 twitch.tv/XasraVA
Welcome to my "Lone Wolf" challenge run of Baldurs Gate 3! With 5 years of D&D experience backing me up, I'm taking on BG3 with a twist: just one character. No party, no back-up, just pure strategy and a dash of luck (and some save-scumming).
Join me, Xasra, as I navigate the treacherous terrain and powerful foes of this iconic game, relying solely on my knowledge of RPG mechanics and the skills I've honed over the years. Whether you're here for intense gameplay, strategic insights, or to see if I'll actually pull this off, there's content here for every gaming enthusiast.
I'll be sharing highlight reels of the most heart-stopping moments, tutorials on how I strategize my solo runs, and my insights on how Baldur's Gate 3 holds up for such a unique challenge.

That was fun. When I told the githyanki goddess to go screw herself, the game said "game over" and I had to load a save. That's what was BS. I played through with a skill monkey to get the most out of the game. But I would have liked to play as my fav, the Druid. This game is too long and annoying to do again. DOS 2 was better gameplay.

@@Xasra Darkness is sporadic in how well in works, in my (rather extensive hundreds and hundreds of hours) experience. I've had enemies shoot and walk into it as if it wasn't there, while at other times it stops them. HIDING in darkness (or fog cloud) is extremely consistent and effective, but just standing in it doesn't always work. It is possible that there is a bug where superior darkvision is giving devil's sight; I'm not sure about that. Solo tactician is extremely doable, by the way, without barrelmancy, but you have to get used to it. Gloomstalker is one of the best for that, but all sorts of builds are possible. Warlock would actually be one of the hardest characters to solo with (assuming pure/single class). Eldritch blast doesn't do much damage until late in Act 3. Even with the Potent Robe, you are looking at around 1-10 +10 X 2 in mid game, with bad initiative, saves, and AC. A Gloomstalker can hit for 40 twice, plus their free ambush attack, with a better to-hit, and they can bonus hide plus have massive initiative, as well. 40 comes from something like: 1-8 Titan Longbow +1 enhancement +4 str from hill giant club +5 dex +3 wis arcane circlet, +1-4 lesser helldusk (or 2 bracers of archery) +2 caustic band +1-4 psychic damage ring +1-4 fire dip in candle + 2-5 Drakeforged Glaive enchantment +10 sharpshooter. It is useful to have that gloomstalker build to compare other builds to for reference. And all the eq in that build can be gotten around lvl 5ish early Act 2 right after beating the 3 goblin bosses before even fighting much otherwise, except for the arcane circlet which is part of the Inquisitor fight. The ring in that room can be looted without any fighting and without aggroing anything if you invis and "send to camp" rather than "steal." Your AC can be 25 even with all that +dam eq (Yuan-ti armor, Ac boots from Mattis at last light, cloak of prot, iron-banded shield, and 20 dex). Saves are also good - not that it matters, as you never really need to get attacked back.

If you had a legion of archers you'd just command them to fire into the darkness until the caster died. Rather then a glitch/bug I think its more of an accuracy by volume tactic.

Quick tip for Nere fight. If you kill all of his minions and then take a long rest when you return not only will the wall already be blown open but Nere will be dead. I’ve done this on all of my solo runs and honestly fighting his band is always the toughest part for me. You can get lucky and thunder wave a couple of guards off the ledges into the lava when no one is looking without triggering a fight.

Karmic dice is such a weird mechanic that it also effects enemies and also effects you if you have too many good rolls in a row and forces you to get bad rolls. And yet its default on, which means most players would be using it without even realising why enemies suddenly can multi-crit them
@ElysetheEevee
@ElysetheEevee 8 ай бұрын
It doesn't cause you to get bad rolls if you get too many good rolls in a row. It shouldn't affect lucky streaks at all in that way. It only affects unlucky streaks, for both sides (I believe it even says now that it affects enemies too, in the information). I'm confused why so many people think Karmic Dice forces unlucky rolls when you have too many good ones? Where is this information coming from?
@Goremize
@Goremize 8 ай бұрын
@@ElysetheEevee Because that's how it worked for 3 years, if you roll lucky, it will force the dice to roll low for you. If you roll unlucky, then it forces the dice to roll high. If enemies roll low constantly, such as attacking in darkness on an easier difficulty, then they will have crit streaks on you. As soon as I turned Karmic dice off, I hit enemies more often and they hit me less. I Know this is personal bias but you can really feel it when you have 22 AC characters who shouldn't ever miss.

A bulletproof jacket made out of Kevlar would stop most bullets quite well but a thin sharp knife like a stiletto or even an arrow would go right through. A bullet crushes and the Kevlar weave hold up well to being smashed through however sharp points get between the weave and go right through it. Armor, like everything else must be adjusted for what you expect to face. In short your knife vs. bulletproof comparison does not stand up to reality and how armor actually works.

Nice. I just (20Dec) started a solo campaign (High Elf- boy, am I EVER! - Monk) before my buddy linked me this vid. Took Blade Ward as my cantrip-yeah-it's weak, but useful. Since I have a bow and decent Dex I don't need "Fiyah Bolto!" (Borrowed from Bell Cranel). Plus, that way I don't have "higher/lower powers" to thank if I win. My buddy (the one who linked your vid to me) is Warlock friendly, tho. He recommends Eldritch Bolt. I prefer Magic Missile as it never misses. You say toe-mahto . . . I allowed free sneak attacks (in custom), and boosted +2 Mastery. Running no mods . . . though I intend to download and install leveling to 20 when it's appropriate. I'm not just some character, mind you, I'm the guy they're depending on to save the campaign. I skipped rescuing Darksnot and left her crying at the crypt door for later pickpocketing. I simply dumped Lazy, never used her. I did have Gale (the windiest ***hole in the game) for the Grove defense fight, but dumped him soon after. I ditched As*tarion . . . he's lucky I didn't just off him. Anyone who holds a knife to my throat is automatically a bad guy - T or F? I'm carefully leveling in any way possible short of combat . . . with a 10 Str and 10 Cha. That single pixel . . . the owlbear cub hates me for that reason. I dodged him. G'bye and g'day, little one! Got to admit . . . this is straining my Boomer game play to the max. Tally ho!

New books tend to show up as they become relevant to the location or story, which is pretty cool. Reminds me of the attention Bethesda used to give to item placement...

The thing with darkness is that the disadvantage only applies for the one inside of the spell, anyone on the outside will get an advantage on you because you are blinded

@Xasra 9 ай бұрын
Not with Devils Sight. The reason people run towards it is usually because they have aggressive AI or have the capability to see through it. Since ranged attacks (per the spells description) cannot pass through it, they have to use melee or AOE effects. While inside darkness you are considered "Heavily Obscured" which grants disadvantage on attack rolls against you. Since I have devil's sight, no disadvantage is applied to me since I can see through it, and they can't attack at range because 1) they can't see me & 2) ranged attacks can't be made through it. This is why normally if you cast darkness on an enemy you are unable to make attack rolls against them unless you are inside darkness yourself, and they will immediately move out of it. Fog cloud on the other hand works partially like you explained.

@Xasra Even if you do not have disadvantage, just being on the edge of darkness allows people outside to attack without going in

The goblin who shot you with eldritch blast ALSO has devil's sight. He didn't roll that well, he just rolled normally and crit.

I couldn't find anything on the wiki about them having Devil's Sight specifically, just regular Dark Vision. I'll check again, because I thought the only enemy in the game with Devils Sight was Raphael. Also, that goblin shot me with an eldritch blast crit AFTER Darkness (lvl2) had faded.
@Xasra
@Xasra 11 ай бұрын
After checking the Wiki and a previous save, all goblins have "Dark vision" (natural darkness) and not "Devil's Sight" (magical darkness).The only enemies I could find in the game with Devils Sight are Raphael, Yurgir, and most creatures classified as "Devils".

Periapt of Wound Closing is absolutely the most broken item in the entire game. I stand by the fact that this single item makes healing out of combat into a complete joke, letting you fight nearly as much as you want. Or literally as much as you want if you don't need Spellcasters.

great video ! I was tinkering with the idea of a solo rogue-thief/warlock-pact of the blade. Figure can do all face party stuff and tackle traps/locks and still be able to use the OP darkness/devil sight plus the extra attacks/bonus actions might be helpful. Also thinking of going drow for the free extra darkness cast.
