The upcoming eighth and final patch for 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Baldur's Gate 3 has the game's community tingling with anticipation. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Larian Studios has already announced the addition of major features like cross-play and a photo mode, as well as a whole host of new subclasses and associated s🍨pells. Given Larian's penchant for🍌 over-delivering, there's every likelihood we'll get a couple of unannounced goodies too.

The announcement of ♔the game's new subclasses i♍n November had players speculating on what kind of chaos they could sew, and these theories haven't slowed down in the interim. An enterprising player, Gen1Swirlix, . The addition of the Swashbuckler subclass for Rogue will allow🍌 the class to access one of the game's most entertaining spells, Vicious Mockery.

Sticks and Stones

Vicious Mockery is a Bard cantrip that inflicts psychic damage on its victim if they fail a wisdom saving throw. It's not a particularly powerful spell, but the caster can utter various insults when the spell lands, making for an entertaining time. My personal favourite line is: "Behold! Elminster's ball-bag." Strange, I thought that was Gal𝓀e.

The right honourable Gen1Swirlix wants to embark on a challenge run where they attempt to beat Baldur's Gate 3 using only damage inflicted by Vicious Mockery. Between the new Swashbuckler subclass, a Sorcerer's Metamagic class feature and the Magic Initiate: Bard Feat, there are plenty of ways to ensure that every member of one's party has access to Vici🥀ous Mockery.

As the thread's comments have rightfully pointed out - numerous enemies in Baldur's Gate 3 are immune to psychic d🔯amage, making them near invulnerabl🌳e to a Vicious Mockery-only run. These psychic immune enemies tend to be automatons that don't actually have brains so... fair enough. Can you insult something without a heart?

Other commenters have suggested expanding the run's criteria to include throwing food, tripping people up and other various insulting actions outside Vicious Mockery. It may take a whilౠe to defeat a Hellfire Watcher using throwable rotten tomatoes, but we didn't embark on this run because we thought it would be easy - we did it so we could ask Gortash if his mother mated with a plague rat.

It won't be an easy task by any means, but when facing down the Netherbrain above ☂the proud city of Baldur's Gate and emphatically uttering "You cyst. You misshapen flesh lump," inflicting between 1-4 psychic damage, won't your trials be justified? Your long struggle rewarded?
