Fog Cloud & Darkness Hidden Spell Interactions! #baldursgate3 #gaming #baldursgateiii

[mistahanansi]

I remember using Darkness to steal the Idol of Sylvanus from the druids in the grove, gave it to Mol, got a Ring of Protection as a reward, pickpocketed the Idol BACK from Mol, put it back in its original spot within the grove, and my thus my conscience remained clear. "Somebody stole the Idol from me! If I ever find out who did it... I'll recruit 'em! :D" - Mol

[DonkThikkness]

Used Darkness during the protect Halsin quest and it trivialized the fight. It prevents projectiles from entering and leaving the cloud making it much more difficult for the swarm to get hits on the portal.

[GoobieTheGoob]

Warlocks with Devil’s Sight can also sit in a cloud of darkness with constant advantage as well as being basically untargetable if they’re deep in the shadow. That really changes your chances of hitting with EB or other spells and drastically lowers your squishiness because most enemies won’t be able to see anything.

[redram]

There is a Cloak that Mattis sells at last light that creates a fog cloud when you disengage. Great way to do this without using a spell slot

[nobilisvaga]

Actually the better one is actually completely free and it's easy. Pass the check with ofira to get performance and just play a song near by. It will attract the merchant and you can have another member of the party sneak over and grab it

[LoveReacts]

As an old div fan, this was my initial reason to use darkness before Wyll got devils sight. That’s when I found out I couldn’t shoot through it and realised its potential

[SoroSorrow]

I play a Shadow Monk and I always found that they were weak when compared to Open Hand. Weak meaning except Shadow Step, all their features are useless. But Once I discovered that I can use Darkness in combat so simply hit and runs ennemies (I have the Mobile feat to avoid Attacks of Opportunities) it becomes so much better. If only we could move the Darkness

[starcrysis]

I did this to turn off the bank alarms in case it was necessary. Just shoot a darkness arrow next to it and disarm trap.

[SoroSorrow]

I once did this during just before a Long rest (just to spend my last resources), and it triggered a battle. Problem is, it was just after the grove, so there was the big party with the village... It became a massacre, all our NPC and players died (on multiplayer), esxcept one, that hopefully managed to hide and end the battle

[brubels]

Always worked until act 3 some guards spawned like 10 steps in front of me and started questioning. Right afterwards they walked away a lil bit and despawned ( this al happend half way at a cliff side)

[adamwoodworth]

B3's area effect bucket over the head

[Solrex_the_Sun_King]

This isn't obvious? It's one of the first things I thought of when there was too much red lines on the ground when holding shift, and all the loot is in a backpack but I can't get a good angle.

[gabobllama]

you will have to make a stealth check on sounds you make though. i learned this the hard way trying to take out the scrying eye in grymforge with a thunder chromatic orb (eye is weak to thunder damage)

[Megastar]

DO NOT CAST DARKNESS ON ROLAN THOUGH IN SORC SUNDRIES, WHOLE STORE AGROS (tottally didnt almost lose my honour mode run to this)

[hannuruotsalainen]

Strangers walking into houses after which house is covered in dense fog. After the fog disappears all the valuable stuff has vanished.

If you did this at my table the guards would be coming to have a chat with you :D No matter if nobody caught red handed.

But agains Ai dm go nuts :D

[master-zaynelotus]

I have beaten the game and not once did I find anything worth stealing on a table just laying around. It's all junk lol

[Antilluminati]

What's obvious is the game blows, casting these spells should have consequences
