After Tav recruits Halsin and asks him what about the Grove after the party, normally Halsin will say he's going to summon Francesca from High Forest to look after it. However, if all the other druids were dead, there'd be some extra lines in this conversation. Tav would say sadly Francesca'll be the first and only druid. Halsin would respond that she can still tend to the grove at least and hopefully new druids will join. This game really amazes me. I've played for so many hours and still find something never seen in the next run. :>

@elenalizabeth 7 дней назад

Wait how can you have a party with Halsin if all the Druids are dead? I thought if you kill them all then he is mad? Or is that only if you side with Minthara?

@DurgetheXIII 5 дней назад

@@elenalizabeth there are two different dialogue options when you face Halsin after you killed all the druids at the grove, one will make he mad and attack you and the other one won't. And of course, don't side with Minthara and don't lead her to slaughter all the refugees. That will definitely make him mad.

@magister343 15 дней назад

Apparently you can bring Arabella's corpse to Sovereign Glut and raise her as a spore servant who can attack anyone without entering turn based combat, allowing an unlimited number of attacks before anyone can fight back. She is also light enough to pick her up as an improvised weapon and carry with you as you fast travel out of the Underdark to let her fight all your battles for you without entering combat. I hear she can use elixirs of hill/cloud giant strength too.

@magister343 15 дней назад

@@erininsoup I haven't tried it myself, but I saw it in another video a couple days ago. The video claimed though that the game will not allow any children to enter turn based combat, and that this allowed spore servant Arabella to make attacks out of turn based mode even when your party and enemies are already in turn based combat. It might work with Doni, Mol, Mattis, Mirkon, or Silfy too. It wouldn't surprise me if that turns out to be a bug that has already been patched through.

The glitch works and if you haven’t got the dream visitor cut scene yet you can even get her to act 2. She is even immune to the shadow curse so you can just make her drink a hill giant strength potion, (which last even through a long rest because spore servants can’t actually rest) make her pick up the everburn blade from the ground and literally beat every fight from act 1 and 2… I think you call that revenge

4:18 This is how Grove is coded: I had everyone attack me for throwing dead Priestess Gut in front of them, literally in front of the cage of that goblin they captured (Sazza), to mock her... they just see you messing with any body or character as hostile... yes, even those they want to kill themselves... Weird.

@magister343 15 дней назад

Weird indeed. Reminds me of when my Paladin Wyll broke his oath by accidentally touching the door to Sazza's cage, long after the goblin had been killed and Astarion had unlocked it to see if there was anything on her corpse worth looting. I also had guards in the Grove attack me for the crime of killing others guards in the goblin camp.

@KasumiRINA 15 дней назад

@@magister343 I had to reload Oathbreaking for luring Minthara to attack the Grove, as the morality check is in Shattered Rectum not when you actually decided to help her or side with defenders (TBH destroying goblin army from the walls is MUCH easier, just put more barrels). Fixed it by standing in the next room, pressing G, and having Shadowruns disguised as drow do talk to Minthy instead. As great warriors of truthiness, benevolence and justice, we knocked her out and stole her clothes - only to get duplicate later.

Some british accents (like a lot of characters in game) pronounce the a more like a long o sound, so to americans they think it has an r in it. It sounds like nails on a chalkboard when people pronounce a hard r. The r sound in american english is a vowel sound actually btw.

@@ryancarlson9680 ikr? It's especially weird because some of r voice actors pronounced it "Korga" simply because of their accent, but for some reason even the actors with different accents seemed to then mimic the same pronunciation, which is extra weird because voice actors don't generally record together. How that pronunciation became default across multiple actors' recording booths at different parts of the studio in different locations around the world is really interesting.

@thyagomaestrelli 12 дней назад

Ok, here is a idea: Experiment with Lae'zel. Normally if you ignore Lae'zel you can find her up to the shadowfell, where she fell to the shadows. What if before that you give her a torch, or the blood of Lathander? Note: you may need to knock her unconscious to swap her weapon so she would need to use a torch or the blood of lathander as weapons and, by consequence, would not fell to the shadowfell

I usually save Arabella and then uncover Kagha's connection to the shadow druids before killing her. In my third playthrough, however, I decided to attack one of the shadow druids in rat form right after saving Arabella, before proving anything. That made the shadow druids hostile to the others druids and all the druids hostile to the tieflings. I managed to save one or two very minor tieflings from being massacred in prison, but everyone else in the grove died. This was before meeting Karlach. She blamed me for killing the tieflings, even though I had only attacked druids trying to save tieflings, so I was forced to kill her for Wyll/Mizora/Zariel/the "Paladins of Tyr."

@erininsoup 14 дней назад

That's so interesting that Karlach will get angry at you even though the druids were the ones who killed the tieflings! I have to go try that for fun. I actually did something similar to the shadow druid rats while I was testing out some experiments - but instead of aggroing they turned into their human forms and started sprinting manically away lol

@KasumiRINA 16 дней назад

10:30 Wow, Halsin going full DEUS VULT on her, shows that you CAN write religious zealots without making them bigots (all druids are priests, Halsin is like the only one who doesn't sound like a Televangelist closing their church doors in front of the refugees, literally). I wish for ONCE we get a Paladin or Cleric who calls out some fellow church members for they hypocrisy. Right now it's what MC does in these games (i.e. being deeply sus of Helmites in NWN or calling out Shadowheart being a poser).

@erininsoup 15 дней назад

I've never heard the term Deus Vult but definitely agree that Halsin is a great example of a character who is very passionate about his religion while actually seeming to honor those tenants! Most of the druids come off as quite hypocritical - I always disliked how they strive to protect nature, but somehow view tieflings and other humanoid species as separate from that

@KasumiRINA 15 дней назад

@@erininsoup Deus Vult is Latin for "God wills it", it was a crusader motto mostly used as a meme when roleplaying as Templars and the like. Religious leaders often being pharisees and hypocrites is kind of universal problem, even New Testament in the Bible is all bout it, and fiction stories roll with it. I liked the take Star Wars KOTOR (both 1 and 2) had on it, you can guess the most self-righteous characters in your party and around it are going to turn to the Dark side.

The death of Arabella triggering Kagha to kill the Tieflings makes sense. Either Kagha thinks you were trying to attack her and hit Arabella by mistake, or she thinks that you killed Arabella and were about to blame the death on her. If you were trying to kill her but missed, it would mean you'd sided with the Tieflings and this was the start of the Tieflings trying to take the grove as their own so it was time to kill them. If you were trying to instigate an all-out war between the Druids and the Tieflings, well, the best defense is a good offense. Kagha was looking for an excuse to get rid of the Tieflings, after all.

Forgive deserves death in every play through. She was evil. She planned on betraying the Grove and giving it up anyways.

13:05 I managed to aggro the ENTIRE party, again, by simply throwing Gut's lifeless body around. Yes, tieflings care about sanctity of one of goblin leaders so much they will fight to the death if you so much as pickpocket their ENEMY's dead body... it's an oversight, goblins should not be coded as neutrals, but it seems the goblins you fight assaulting the grove are separate entities - they obviously not aggro tieflings on being looted. Also I noticed that state of goblins in camp (alive, massacred, poisoned) or their spiders is not related to ones you actually fight in the grove siege if you talk with Minthara and lure her into... barrel town.

@corvigae 15 дней назад

I had this happen to me in the grove once on an Honor run by trying to loot one of the Shadow Druids' bodies for some reason. I still don't get it, bc I'd looted them before and have since (also in HM) without any issue, but for some reason that was considered "stealing," and since I'd been caught sneaking around once before, it instantly caused everyone in the room to aggro...so naturally I thought "Shit, okay, I'll just run outside," only to find everyone out there aggro'd on me, too. Thought my run was cooked until I just barely managed to get (nearly) everyone to run away to safety.

@KasumiRINA 15 дней назад

@@corvigae yeah that whole area is a bit too twitchy. I looted shadow druids in combat, just in case. It's stupid they defend dead goblins tho, especially the exact ones you need to kill to save the Grove. Hell, I had to put myself in front of Sazza and persuade the tiefling to not execute the prisoner-of-war out of revenge (I'm a Paladin of Vengeance, not war crimes!) and exact same tieflings suddenly get sentimental over robbing the very same Gut their PoW is threatening them with. This is out of character.

@WikkeSchrandt 15 дней назад

I wish fighting the druids went the same way for me as it did in this video. I've tested it myself a few times, and whenever I'd pick a fight with the druids (even in the centre of the grove), most druids would run right past me as non-combatants and start attacking the tieflings in the holding cells.

I once did this fight (on accident, I forgot using charm in dialogue on tactician aggros people... which for the character I was playing honestly makes sense anyway) with Durge and Wyll in Kagha's chambers (thought Wyll would enjoy me being a good boy for the first time in my life) while Lae'zel and Astarion were outside, so then I just had 2 separate fights to deal with at the same time. Now, Wyll died and Durge (who is intentionally poorly built, it's a jack-of-all-trades run, 3/10 do not recommend except for the laughs and the achievement) was downed and stabalized.... so after dealing with everything outside, Astarion swooped in to save Wyll and Durge's sorry hides. (Astarion has been my ringer basically the entire time I've played this game. I often send him in to solo fights at higher levels...) It was interesting, but also Rolan and Lia were dead so Cal disapeared before the party. Also it turns out that you need Rolan alive if you want any kids that aren't Mol to make it to Act 2.

You also get some entirely different dialogue between Korga and Halsin in the Grove if you do the Dark Druid quest line and convince Korga to change her ways. Also different interaction at the After-party with Arabella's parents if Arabella died and Korga changed her ways. Korga is apologetic instead of being an ass. If you convince Korga to change her ways you get a staff as a request reward. If you don't convince her to change her ways, you can kill her without causing the other druids to go after the Teiflings.

So, yeah, most (though not all) tieflings died, and Karlach didn't want to join me because she blamed me on massacring them. I dunno if it was a bug or a feature, but it surely was an interesting experience, even though I missed on a whole companion. Probably for the better, since my Tav was pretty darn evil. Edit: Also, Halsin told me he will visit me at the party, and he never came to that party. Like, the party have never happened, and he just disappeared, so I think it happens when you slaughter the grove and never tell him about it.

@magister343 15 дней назад

In my third playthrough I attacked a rat when I recognized her name as that of a shadow druid, which made the Shadow Druids kill Rath and Nettles before the regular druids decided to slaughter all the Tieflings. (I killed the shadow druids and then two druids while trying to save tiefling prisoners, only one of which lived.) Karlach gave me no choice but to kill her. In my last playthrough I had killed all the druids. Halsin showed up for the party, but no one else did. I'm not sure why none of the tieflings attended. I have found that the party tends not to happen if you are in the Underdark when you begin your nest long rest after saving Halsin. Going on to the Rosymorn Monestary Trail or Shadowlands tends to skip the parties, but one time I think I got a bug where I got the party after visiting Last Light Inn and then going back to the Grove one last time.

And no comments on the biggest, most spineless clown about the druids, Rath? Tut tut.

It's also strange to me that if Halsin dies as part of his rescue he's dead forever, but I've had his corpse follow me around at camp for the rest of the game as a result. As for Rath, the man talks a lot, but won't do anything to stop Kagha and gleefully participates in tiefling slaughter/closing off the grove, so he gets no love from me.

Haha the corpse following you around is tragic but also a little hilarious 😂 On an honor run, Minthara died while I was trying to get her out of Moonrise, but for some reason her portrait remained stuck to me since I had been controlling her. Didn't think it would matter but all the guards aggroed on me in every area because of an effect she had - I think it was the Enemy of Justice mark or something. But one of the things I like about Rath is he is willing to put his life on the line and battle Kagha and the rest of the druids if you reveal something like the shadow druids, while her lackeys will follow her blindly to the end.

@@erininsoup I've never had just Rath oppose her before. Every time I've done the Shadow Druid storyline I convince Kagha she's been on the wrong path (very easy to do) and she and everyone else fights against them. I assume this variance you've experienced can only occur via a very specific set of circumstances (?). Kagha's whole story seems truncated, as her redemption is abrupt and complete (her friend outside implies she wasn't always so bitter and angry)--what little Kagha says afterwards is just her being utterly contrite (which is better than the several instances of Wyll admitting he's been wrong and then immediately saying he'd do the same thing again--the latter I think is intentional satire from Larian as opposed to limited time/budget).

Definitely gonna do some experiments in Act 2 (my favorite act!) But it might be a little while - I'm finishing up a shadow druid one, and then I'm going to be traveling for a couple of weeks, so it'll probably be mid-August. If you have any suggestions for things to try out, let me know ❤

@calliesummers1943 16 дней назад

That's so interesting! I usually play a druid, so I go uncover the Shadow Druid business, confront Kagha, and convince her to reform, whether or not I let Arabella die. There's a way to let Halsin know about it all in the goblin camp too, but either way, his confrontation with Kagha is similar. It sounds a little softer, though, since she's showing a lot of regret and remorse, so I think Halsin's VA even recorded the identical lines differently. That also makes it make more sense why Kagha is allowed to attend the party, but is on the outskirts alone. Maybe the whole Shadow-Druid/Faithwarden route deserves a followup video? There's also a lot of druid (and drow-/elf-/tiefling-druid) dialogues that are pretty interesting. I love this kind of content for bg3! Keep it coming!! :D

@erininsoup 16 дней назад

Ooooh, the Faithwarden stuff is so cool! My friend actually just got that special staff from Kagha on a multiplayer playthrough that I've been doing on the side for fun. I love seeing all the different dialogue options that depend on your character - drow is my favorite for that!

WHAT HAPPENS IF... you free Orpheus and make the Emperor leave you before meeting Ansur under Baldur's Gate? Will you get a different dialogue? An ally?

@erininsoup 2 дня назад

Ooooh, interesting idea - I have spent way more time messing around in act 1 and 2 than act 3, but is there a way to free Orpheus before the morphic pool? Because I think at that point you can't go back to the city, and your party is locked together. But if I could, I would loooove to try this

@luvcherry 11 дней назад

thank you for doing all the work for me since I had questions about this 😭 rn I'm doing an evil playthrough and wondering about all the interactions with the druidxtiefling fight and minthara's raid, like what happens if the fight starts and then you have her show up? will wyll and karlach still be mad for having her come over even if you don't go through with the massacre since everyone's dead (if you only kill druids in that fight I guess?)? thinking about what to do for maximum drama

@erininsoup 10 дней назад

Awww of course! And ooooh, I like your thinking!! Some other commenters have said that even inciting the massacre and letting the tieflings die without Minthara is enough to make Karlach angry, so I think she might be out of commission, but it'd be fun to try to see what new lines pop up!

@lillianfultz9032 16 дней назад

33:11 i think if you check the outside of the grove halsin will be there dead if i remember because i originally wanted to kill kagha and i did but after a chat with minthara and deciding not to kill her and free halsin kind of i killed the rest of the tieflings and he was outside, but again my memory doesnt hold up well

@Magister1995 10 дней назад

I saved the little girl as a paladin of vengeance and oofed Kagha as a response.. my idea was to punish her unmoral behaviour. well after the battle (her cave) I took a long nights rest and was banished from the grove - ported right outside the gate. Karlach said after that, I killed the tiefling refugees personally, so I couldn't recruit her anymore.. halsin was saved and oblivious and would join my team happily. what a mess eventhough I was on a good playthrough

just happened to me in my playthrough: Kahga killed Arabella and I came back and exposed her as a shadow druid. I persuaded her to fight with me against the others. Halsin was still BIG MAD at her in the grove and he didn't demote her to a novice...he basically said he couldn't absolve her and that nature would run its course with her. She was at the party and Komira stabbed her. Astarion is wearing her necklace.

They’re not saying “Corga,” they’re saying Kahga” with a British accent. An American should pronounce it “Kah-Gah.” Think of it like the way British people would say Saturday like “Sa-ur-day.” That doesn’t mean we should start saying it like that.
