Never thought to do this. The final battle was a bit of a pain in the a$$ and took me about 4 hours or so.
Great way to end the game.

Raphael is such a good fight. I love the whole house of hope.

My favourite is swords bard with a single level of fighter and wizard - skill monkey and party face that deals massive damage and phenomenal at crowd control and utility for the party.
I played that for my tactician run and didn’t really optimise the build - running it in Honour mode now with a much more optimised build. I’m nearing the end of Act 1 and it’s really starting to come online.
Glyph of Warding (sleep) FTW.

For honour mode I’ve respecced Karlach to an open hand tavern brawler monk who chugs potions. She wrecks hard!

Closing in on the end of Act 1 on honour mode.
Was a bit worried about the
Was a bit worried about the
Gith Inquisitor but a Glyph of Warding put him to sleep. Made it much more manageable. Those Gith are tough ****ers.

It's an amazing game.
I'm on my third run and finding new stuff that just blows my mind.
First run was a Fighter/Warlock on Balanced mode
Second run - Tactician mode Elf Sword Bard
Current run - Honour mode (several false starts) as a dark urge halfling sword bard.
My honour mode run has taken an unexpected turn.
My party (Tav, Shadowheart (light cleric - radiant orb lawnmower), Astarion (gloomstalker/assassin), Karlach (open hand tavern brawler monk who chugs strength elixirs)) was on our way to free the Nightsong, all had gone swimmingly. Balthazar annihalated, trials all done in no time, Raphael’s devil killed without issue… and then…
My Tav somehow missed the jump on to the platform with the Nightsong and couldn’t be revived.
Shadowheart walks straight up to the Nightsong and goes to town on her with the spear.
Not at all how I’d planned things. Uncharted territory now for quite a bit of the story. Should be interesting…
After that unexpected turn I returned to a sea of carnage at the Last Light Inn.... a bit bummed about losing Dammon and Jaheira. I then laid waste to Moonrise Towers and took down Ketheric/Myrkul last night (really fun battle on honour mode) and had a very good chat with Minthara afterwards. I think she may have to replace one of my other companions through much of Act 3.

Loving Honour mode after a few shaky false starts. Need to be very cautious until hitting level 5/6. Just hit level 10 in the final boss fight at the end of Act 2.

Larian has stated there will be no future DLC or BG4.
While I’m bitterly disappointed there won’t be any more BG3 content I think it’s the right decision for Larian.
Larian has shown they can write an absolute epic game.
They don’t need Hasbro/WOTC/DnD to write another epic game storyline. I’m sure they’re capable of developing their own lore and and combat systems that aren’t hamstrung by constraints of DnD.

For those interested this is the final battle on my first Honour Mode run. I'm at level 3 on my second HM run.

Made it to Act 3. Beat the 2 bosses, beat the vampire lord, beat the Wizard, beat the devil, blew up the steel watch and then...
Started another playthrough.
Fear of finishing?

I keep failing further Honour Mode runs.
I got too cocky the other night and went up against Dror Ragzlin at Level 4 without long resting. Without spells he took us down in a close encounter. Several unlucky rolls really hurt. He was on 5 hit points when he finished my party off.

No need to be sad. It was my own stupid fault.
I need to play with a lot of caution until the party really comes online at level 5/6 - after that it’s not too bad.
Tav will really come online at L8 with 2 levels of Paladin and 6 Sword Bard.
Main party will be Wyll (simply because I’ve barely had him in a party) as a straight fiend warlock.
Karlach as Open Hand/Tavern Brawler monk/thief.
And I’m wanting Minsc end game as a hunter ranger.

How many more updates they're gonna do? I need them to finish adding all the content they wanna add before I start my durge honour mode run
1 more. Patch 7 seems to be the last major content patch. Including new Durge endings
Sweet, the time is near
