Hello everyone,

Patch 3 is now live for Baldur’s Gate 3. Mac users and chronic character re-creators rejoice! Friday’s update will bring the full release of Baldur’s Gate 3 to Mac, and allow you to change your character’s appearance in-game via the Magic Mirror.

Mac Support

With Patch 3, Baldur’s Gate 3 is now fully supported on Mac!

As with the PC release in August, saves made in previous versions of BG3 on Mac will not be compatible with the full release. To prepare your Mac for the full version of Baldur’s Gate 3 and minimise potential compatibility issues, we recommend you fully uninstall the game and remove any mods before installing the latest version.

The minimum and recommended specs for Mac users have also been updated: we recommend an M1 Pro processor and FSR enabled to run the game at high or ultra settings on a Retina display. Check the store.steampowered.com/app/1086940/Baldurs_Gate_3/ for more details.

Mac players, thank you for your patience – now, gather your party and venture forth.

Magic Mirror

Tucked away in your camp, exuding a certain ‘we found this at a vintage fair and it’s too fancy for our current home’ energy, is an item called the Magic Mirror. Tales have been told of its legendary ability to permanently alter the appearance of one who gazes into it.

The Magic Mirror allows you to change up your appearance whenever you’d like, however many times you’d like. There are some restrictions: your appearance, voice, pronouns and nether regions can be changed, but your race/subrace and body type cannot. Origin characters, hirelings and full illithids cannot use the Magic Mirror. Cosmetic modifications that are a consequence of your gameplay choices will persist – hag got your eye? Swallow any interesting tadpoles lately? There’s no Magic Mirroring those big life decisions away.

Personally, we’ll be applying incrementally heavier eyeliner whenever we have a Dark Urge moment in our playthrough to really emphasise our descent.



Ooh, the mysteries of the void – time to change that ill-advised hair colour.

We’re still working on further updates with additional features and epilogue scenes, and your continued feedback is helping to shape and impact the future of Baldur’s Gate 3.

Until next time, thank you for playing!

HIGHLIGHTS

• Baldur’s Gate 3 is now fully supported on Mac!

Combat

  turn into or remain in his Mist Form
  if in magical sunlight, such as that created by the Daylight spell.

• Fixed the Divine Smite damage increasing over the cap of 5d8.

Well miracles apparently still happen and we even learn about them here first. Credit where credit is due: Thank you.
The size of the file download on mac also seems to have changed on steam, so I assume this means, the game is actually out now. We shall see soon.

Wow! These patch notes go on forever!

Thanks for all your hard work and for making such a fantastic game!

Thanks especially for this! No more missing dialogue in multiplayer!

Does the dark urge count as one of the origin characters that cant use the magic mirror?

magic mirror object says Not Found and does nothing when i click on it

Still no fix for the Zaith'isk debuffs?
My Lae'zel still has -2 Con/Wis/Int even after I've consumed 5 tadpoles

magic mirror object says Not Found and does nothing when i click on it i prove it in my two save games and it's not working :c

thank you. Just wanted to ask about the disguise self reactions fix, Indomitable Fighter feature still says "cant use while polymorphed". I this intended?

edit: btw, why is this Indomitable feature even a reaction? It states it does not cost any resources so it could just work automatically right? Or is there any scenario where I dont want this to be triggered?

PLZ fix magic mirror not working. my tavs got an ugly face tattoo thats gtg asap!!!

What about the dynamic split-screen with the merging camera when in co-op? It seems Larian didn't even mention it, is it planned to be included in the next update? It'd be nice to have just a yes or no at this point, given the demand from fans in many threads here and on Reddit.

The magic mirror doesn't work when I click on it. Annoying when we know that this is one of the most important features of the patch.

Dark Urge characters should be able to use the Magic Mirror!

For those getting Not Found issues when using the Magic Mirror (or Magic Mirror not responding), please remove any mods you might have installed and try again.

Hi, is the Mac. version of the game coming to GOG? I ask cause it is still missing on GOG

Jesus holy shit.
Well I was hoping for somekind of difficulty improviments .
But heads down there are a working on a lot of stuff. So even I don't get what I wanted after 8 months it's still a good job. And at least this time patch notes arrived here first. So someone readed my complain at least this one:).

On personal note I really like that the patch notes publication priority is on the official forum and site. And this time it was delivered well. So thnx for that. And I am happy for Mac players enjoy your game:)

Seriously! I'm not about to read through that enormous list, but if this was in it would have been front and center.

I truly am convinced that the current employees of Larian weren't even around 5 years ago when Divinity 2 came out and probably have no clue how couch co-op worked in that game and should work in this game.

Magic Mirror doesn't work with mods installed. RIP.

Still no fix on arcane ward not triggering on reactions unfortunatelly. Please fix the abjurer.

Call lightning is broken
The option to reactive call lightning doesn’t show up

(Update , on the ps5 you have to re-add it to the toolbar)

Lighting aura also show’s unavailable even. With 4 charges
Removing and re-adding the icon to toolbar allows use again

You have to be kidding me! The Archfey Warlock is still broken. I reported the bug when I noticed it at level 4, and every hotfix and patch since. I finally got a reply two weeks ago saying it was a known bug and they were already working on a fix, which got my hopes up that it would be in the next update. The game had been updated every week since release, but it was two weeks since I got the reply before the next patch and it's still not fixed.

magic mirror not working when you have mods installed kinda makes it useless, very disappointing. If that was gonna be the case yall should have added it after official mod support

Patch 3 is now live with Mac support on GOG too!

yall know removing mods from an active campaign breaks it right. i get an instant ctd and i only have a few installed. This is very disappointing

I understand your frustration but rest assured Larian will fix this eventually. I assume playing with a different build is out of the question for you in the meantime?

Great work, another meaty patch

Thank you, thank you!!! This is a biggy for us.

Wooohoo!

You are right. We, the people asking for the old good Dynamic split screen, are the same core fans who bought DOS I, II and BG, III. We trusted, loved and supported Larian's work, so I think we are entitled to ask for this fix and, most importantly, we deserve at least an answer, even if it's a no chance for the merging camera. It's a matter of respect.

In relation to this update: When dismissing party members, story items (and characters they were dragging along in their inventory) will now properly transfer over to another party member.

Is there are reason why a dismissed Companion's Alchemy Pouch, Camp Supply Pack, and Keychain (along with non-quest related Legendary items...even equipped ones) are being transferred via the "Shared Stash" when you dismiss a Companion to camp?

I understand that Story items are important to hold onto, but it seems tedious to constantly have to transfer the Pouch and Pack items around when they are only dismissed to Camp.

Would it be possible to include a "Decline" option when asked to take the items via "Shared Stash"?

Yes. This exactly. Every character has their own sacks and pouches. No damn need for second copies of those. Transfer contents of those, but not the items themselves.

FOR EVERYONE WHO HAS DOUBTS ABOUT THE MAGIC MIRROR AFTER SOME TEST

1- The magic mirror does work but only if you have the vanilla game without any mod installed

2- script mods do not affect the magic mirror like IMPROVED UI

3- Any other mode outside of those makes the magic mirror not work.


thanks for all the bug fixes and for the magic mirror, I hope that in some micro patch the mirror is compatible with mods and the moding tools come out soon

On macOS, still getting the warning about full mac-version not launching until early september, and that lauching before that will be Patch 9. I have the correct version for Patch #3. Have they just forgotten to remove this and it's safe to launch? Don't want to risk messing up my synced saves from Geforce NOW.

They said it was big. They weren't kidding!

Thanks for sharing. We have to admit that's really disappointing from Larian to give us as a modest improvement ignoring all the effort of the community.

I second this! Especially because it also transfers mod created bags.
A decline option or a on/off switch in the options menu would be great.

How long did it take to write these patch notes

Is there an option to roll back to the previous version on Steam? Otherwise I can't resume my save until the mods are patched as well (and it's weekend)

It's the full version, just a non-updated launcher. The launcher also advertises the digital deluxe edition, which most of us earlier players have by default.

The bigger issue is that we're stuck with FSR1 on Mac (and they even tout this as a positive in the patch notes)! Hell, even FSR *2* would be a disappointment (it's the worst of the decent upscalers).

The Mac release should feature MetalFX Temporal Super Resolution, Apple's own solution which looks as good as nVidia DLSS on PC.

At least three of the mods I use have already been updated - including Improved UI which the poster above said didn't need to be.

It is Improved UI intervening with the mirror.

Yes, this! At least allow me to choose what items to transfer. Don't want to get everything my companions are carrying, that's just tedious and extra work when reinstating said companion in the team later.

Yeah I know, been refreshing nexus while watching videos for the last couple of hours. The issues come when I activate any other mods, even when I just use stuff that would be mundane overrides in other games (like the armour fixes for example) cause problems for me and things just don't working.

So I figured it would be best to just roll back, finish the character because I'm almost done (which makes it doubly frustrating :)) , and then do the update. I also suspect that some mods will never receive updates, because things like customizer are pretty outdated already.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this but now with the update and full mac support, is there anyway to mod the mac version of the game?

I can confirm your saves will work, same situation here and I loaded most recent save and all is well

What happened to the nudity? After installing the newest patch, the nudity is gone, although I chose it in the options. The charaters wear ugly underwear now in the love scenes?! U can*t be serious! Why cannot we chose that like before? PLEASE fix this soon!

Just reading through these patch notes seems like a full time job.

Well done, I think. Can't say for sure, haven't read it all.

Wow Moon druid is totally fixed officially there is no bad class subclass in bg3. Thank you from the botton of my heart. I was waiting for this almost 8 month.
The only thing I wish for is to boost the difficulty.
I still don't understand that lvl 4-5 caracters at Tactican difficulty have 60-80-190 hp in act 1. But as soon as we move to act 2 and 3 this ho amount and also the armor class is getting lower with 20-30%. And in ACT3 it's becoming ridiculous some high 12 lvl enemys have 28-40 hp. For sure something is wrong. Mybe the difficulty slider is not applyed in act 2-3?

Please revert shared stash change or make option to disable it. Its really annoying

Thanks for the massive amount of fixes and improvements.

I hope next time we get some continuity improvements and fixes for Karlach Origin (avatar Karlach) too .

Welp it's not fixed, I'm stuck with no Vlaakith cutscene, and can't progress any further.

I cant use magic mirror because of mods
I can disable almost all, but if I disable the mod "bags bags bags" my game crashes.

I hope there is a fix soon to allow players to use magic mirror without disable mods...

Thank you for another update. I'm sure the modding community will update and adapt accordingly.

Totally agree on this one! A Decline option would be good, though I'd rather not have these containers transferred at all!

translation = this should not happen unless you are playing on tactician

This is optional, right? I would really, really hate having to level everyone up at the same time.

In my game, fighters and rogues get levelled up pretty much straight away, but I like to take my time thinking about spells I need, so casters get levelled up much later.

Unfortunately inst this specific mod because I cant use magic mirror and Im not using Imoroved UI mod

Hi Salo I would love to disable all mods to use magic mirror, but if I disable all, my game ctd and I cant play

If I had known it would take so long I might have. I'm not that far into the game, but far enough that I really don't want to start over. I had considered switching to a different sub-class, but I like the the Archfey. I've seen some say it's the worst sub-class, so it's probably not as popular and why it's not a priority fix. However, I like to role play in my role playing games, so I'm not min/maxing my build for combat. I picked the Archfey sub-class because it fit my character.

I'm begging the team, please reverse this change with the next update!

When dismissing party members, story items (and characters they were dragging along in their inventory) will now properly transfer over to another party member.

Or at least make this something I can optionally toggle on/off in the game settings.

I now having to do so much more inventory management to give my companions back the items that were removed from them when dismissed. I actually just reported this as a bug, it didn't occur to me this was an intentional change. I see that people have been asking for the ability to access all companion inventories while in camp so that they don't loose items, which I'm guessing was a hard change to make and this was seen as a reasonable middle ground? But really this is not the way

Some equipable gear seems to be considered a 'story item' like the Disintegrating Nightwalker Boots I have given Astarion. Now every time I dismiss him his boots get yoinked off. If I don't remember to give them back and re-equip them the next time he's in my party he has to walk around town barefoot. Poor Astarion

PS5 version of the patch has started to crash consistently in the Underdark not sure what's triggering it. I thought it had something to do with dispelling Gale from being a cloud but it happened mid fight.

Maybe it does for some, but that is not the cause for all. I opened a previous save that included no mods and it doesn't work. I uninstalled all mods, removed their pak files from the mod directory, opened a previous save with no mod associated with it and it didn't work. I started a new game, it worked. I added mods to the new game, saved, reopened the save and it still worked.

This issue along with the Failed to Save 516 error after trading with a vendor only seems to show up if I open a previous patch 3 save.

I am not sure if it is my load order or the mods that I am using but Magic Mirror works, in both new games and old saved games, with the mods that I use and I'm using almost 50.

I honestly don't know why everything works for me while others mention having problems.

Do you have bag in bag and use the items from it?

What a garbage update! Magic mirror is a smaller problem. Despite I use only 3 mods + modfixer and ImprovedUI, this patch has broken my game completely. I cannot load ANY save that was mod-free to begin with, I now have to deactivate all mods each time to be able to play those save-files!
What a shame.

Yes, I have the BagsBagsBags installed and I can use the all the bags. I have seen some others saying it no longer works for them but it works for me. I don't know why!

A little harsh, eh?

It's always let the mod user beware

I have mods installed and it works fine. Make sure to download the new version of Improved UI and you should be fine.

It is still possible to dismiss a character's level up screen.

Rule 1 of troubleshooting with mods.
Start a new game without mods.
If the problem persists it is not the mods.
If the problem goes away then add a mod and test again.
Repat until the problem mod or mods are identified.

Rule 1 of common sense.
Given the chaos every time Larian have released hotfixes and patches, either don't update your game straight away or don't play the updated game until your mods have been updated.

Larian need to sort things so that breaking one save doesn't break them all. Other games have been doing it for years and years but hey, Larian gave us pronouns.

Not even close.

The first thing I do before launching an updated game is to update all my mods.
ImprovedUI included


Yeah, talking about priorities.

LOL the only mod I'm using on this list is bag bag bag and its the only mod I cant remove because it will crash my game.
My load order (I dont know if its correct)

There is a LOT of people here complaining about the patch. My game is NOT modded yet and I have NO problems whatsoever with the patch.

You make an informed decision to install all those mods knowing that the game is still being constantly patched and then start complaining that your mods don't play nicely with updates.

So either don't mod the game until everything is patched or wait for mods to update and a new hotfix to be released.

From what I can see the overwhelming majority of those complaining are people with mods.

I'm sure everything will gets fixed in time, at least Larian seems to be willing to do so.


I'm with you on that, like there is nothing more urgent to fix.

What can you say...you install mods you have problems.

I do not install mods I play happily

There are plenty of people on PC, PS5 and now Mac who do not use mods but still have problems with the various updates and there are many people such as myself who have mods installed and have not had any problems with the updates. I happily play a game that is how I want it and not how Larian wants it.
The fact that Larian have fixed well over 2,000 bugs in 6 or so weeks should tell you that this game is not without its problems.

Wow what a patch. I started reading and the page just kept scrolling and scrolling and scrolling, I thought it might not ever end.

Great job guys

I compared the performance of Patch 2 and Patch 3
Anyone interested can watch it on my YouTube channel.

This appears to be fixed - the way it is worded. However, Insect Plague still appears to be having the wrong DC 15 (caster has 16).

Mods or not, but I've just lost 2 hours of my game-play because of saving error.
Never seen it before.
Worst patch ever.

I have the same problem.

KUDOS, Larian! What a super, super job! I rarely get like this--positively gushing--as I am rarely this impressed by game post-release patches as a rule, but the rule is shattered in this case! I can't believe the improvement in graphical quality patch #3 brings to this game! I'm blown away, and I had no expectation that I would be. Here's what I'm playing BG3 on since I bought the first EA release 3+ years ago:

Windows 11 Pro, current build is 22631.2338, 3900X CPU, 6900XT GPU, Adrenalins 23.9.2 (highly recommended), 32GB (4x8GB) system ram, Aorus Master AMD x570 motherboard Bios F37f, PCIe4/PCIe3 NVMe drives, SATA 3 HDDs a-plenty, 43" Philips Momentum 436M6VBPAB 43" monitor, 4K UHD Quantum Dot VA, DisplayHDR1000 (if I omitted something germane here I'll come back and plug it in...;))

When I decided to start a new game after applying the major GOG Patch #3, 4.1.1.3732833, D3D 11,which installed perfectly, btw, I just wasn't expecting the following.

Although I am playing with an AMD RX-6900XT, and have been playing the EA and release versions at 4k, max eye-candy ON, including HDR, since the first day three years ago, I didn't think there was any room to improve the image quality over the status quo as of major patch #2, etc. I don't know what the precise differences are, except to say that the improvement is so "in-your-face" obvious and dramatic that I recall "blinking" a lot to verify that it was real...;) The HDR mode in the game from the start is a big improvement over the original, graphically. The colors are deeper, richer, and the game just displays a lot better than it did pre patch #3! It felt very nearly like having a brand-new GPU!

Also...The improvements in the opening of the game aboard the Mindflayer ship are major, and has to be played through to be appreciated. IMO, it is far superior to the original opening sequence! The new sequence seems much slicker and plays much better, imo. KUDOS, Larian!

Also have saving error. It appears after trading. If no trading - game works ok, no saving errors

Oh, if the saving bug is also a result of trading, then maybe the same workaround applies?
I mean to trade choosing the special button, not the dialogue option.
I will test it ASAP.

Guys, really... I love your game and as much as i've doubted you would deliver a BG game worth it's name, wich you did, there's something really serious we need to discuss... ACT 3 IS SO LAGGY THAT IT'S BARELY PLAYABLE.
I run the game on max setting till i hit Moonrise, the suicidal harpers charge is a breaking point, from there on, there's only lag lag lag lag. Seriously, i understand you need to express how hard it is for every survivor and refugee, but there's TOO MUCH useless npcs being processed and lagging the game, i'm basically playing act 1 and 2 over and over cause act 3 is NOT FUN AT ALL, just because it goes down to 20 fps at ANY city part, it gets better on caves, tunnels, etc, but it takes all the fun from the game, i'm avoiding puzzles because it simply takes more time to execute what i think will resolve than to think about it. That said, i think we could just separate some areas maybe? like, wyrm's crossing, there's no reason why it cannot be ANOTHER AREA. Gortash party is normally a bunch of naked and glitchy ppl teleporting around without ever finished rendering just because there's too much on the screen. Also, the taverns on second part, there like 60 npcs on each, can't we just make them a loaded internal area? Yes, i know it "breaks" the immersion because you would not be able to see the street from inside anb blablabla... but i prefer to loose a little immersion and BE ABLE TO PLAY, if you don't mind.

So, the good news - the bug is indeed caused by trading.
The bad news - the workaround doesn't work. You just can't trade for now.

I updated my game to Patch 3 and it all works with my 25 or so mods. I tried the Magic Mirror - took me forever to actually find it - and I could access CC though I didn't bother changing anything. I also traded with Volo via the trade button in the bottom left of the screen. All this is in Act 2 just prior to attacking Moonrise.

Sadly, still no mod support, no ability to revert to previous versions of the game, and still can't recruit Minthara and Halsin like we could in the launch version of this game.

So if you want to play this game with all characters like you could when you bought this, you have to rely on third party websites for mods or go through an extremely convoluted way to change your steam files and overwriting the files through Steam's back end storage server side.

I just want to be able to play this game like I was when I first bought this. Why can't Larian just let players make their own choice of how they should be playing the games they bought? It's not like this is a competitive MP game or an MMO or anything.

The argument that it was 'not intended' to be able to recruit all companions is sad. That's how the game was shipped, that's what players paid for. This isn't early access anymore.

i now have 3 copies of the game for my Gog account
1 Galaxy -Windows and my main
2 off line installer - Windows
3 Galaxy Mac

all 3 work, only have the deluxe Dlc and Twitch drops and while i agree Larian needs to rethink what they call 'testing' the patch is a good step

Why wont u allow magic mirror for hirelings?

Why do you hate custom character so much?

There is a strange bias here everyone has been noticing, I get the origins, these are your hard made creations and u don't want to see them perverted.

But hirelings? Really?

First off, please fix this. Or at least give an option to turn it off/on or choose what items to transfer

Secondly, my game keeps freezing when I use the Sort by option through the Traveller's Chest at camp. I can cycle to Latest, but when I try to sort by another option it freezes forcing me to have to shutdown the game and reload (This is on PS5).

I've recruited Minthara post patch so it's not systemic

Shared stash transfer on dismissing companions... I think the idea behind it was good, but the execution is terrible. No consideration for players who like to swap companions around in order to get the maximum world interaction. No consideration for players who keep hireling alts for buffs or potion crafting. Each time a companion is temporary dismissed and returned to the party, you have to give back their items and go through the items tab to setup scrolls/potions.
Very frustrating, please hotfix it asap.

Please revert Raphael's hair colour. The previous colour suits him better, and gave him a disarming levity that is missing in the current look.

100% agree. Such an annoying thing. A much better solution would be allow inventory management of every companion in camp, or a shared inventory of consumables.

I don't think the Raphael changes took effect, he is still level 12 for me.

My bad, I was referring to the ability to recruit Minthara and Halsin in the same playthrough which players had when the game launched.

This function was removed with patch 1 and forced into existing playthroughs so people like me who were planning to play the game with all companions and cycle them in and out depending on character synergies and alignment were blocked from doing it as soon as that patch landed.

Area of effect spells can do damage to someone with the sanctuary condition but they shouldn't break the condition.

I, too, agree. I just took away all of the companions key-, alchemy- and ration stash's to prevent my character getting flooded, when changing companions ( I do that a lot). But apart from quest items, I don't think, anything has to be transferred.

First of all Thanks for the hard work. Magic Mirror is a great addition!
(And yes I had to restart a 20hours campaign to get it to work, but that is part of modding so I'm not complaining.)

Here are some nitpicks:

I guess that is why the Black and Furnace Red dye no longer colors the chest plate part of the Breastplate armor gold ... I mean the plates on the knees and elbows remain golden, but the chest plate is now steel .... just ... WHY ????
Why would you change the color of one big plate steel and not the others ... now it looks really mismatched, I had to switch to using Black and Azure it was so bad.


Also this:
This is really annoying for me as well. Especially since some character-related stuff only triggers if you bring that specific character at specific times. Usually, they are switched with the transmuter wizard who holds all alchemy ingredients (and scrolls in a bagsbagsbags scroll case which, btw, also gets yeeted back to MC).

AGREED. made an account just in hopes that Larian is reading this feedback.

Not sure how to post before and after pictures here but each time i look at my gear with Black and Furnace Red dye it makes me sad. Please add the gold back in your next hotfix.

shared stash didn’t bother me any more after i put em at camp lollll
my shadowheart's avatar always turns black when shes in team again no idea why plz fix this(((

Don't bother posting that here; I doubt they have the time to read the forums.

Use the 'REPORT A BUG' on the launcher instead; it's much easier and that's the channel they're monitoring. I've sent a number of bugs and got some feedback, so they're transmitting those ones to the developers. And you can easily attach pictures and DxDiag files.

Just expect some delay because of the amount of bugs they have to wade through.

Yeah just submitted a bug report with screenshots. I'm in no rush though as long as their aware of it I'm happy.

Can't hurt to do both. ;-)

Any ETA on hotfix anywhere?

I had weird behaviours with the bonus actions since this patch was applied. Reloading the game at the same point solved it in one case, but it's worrying.

It looks like the turn-based logic is still flawed, and not only when using stealth.

My game is on PS5 so no mods. Since patch 3, i cant access lower city at all, on any save. All fixes tried and didnt work. This is the only game that crashes for me. All i have left is end game, and i cant play it at all. The game worked great for me before the patch. Im still amazed by this game. It's great. But id love to be able to finish the campaign i started.

Since Patch 3, some custom characters don't follow the party even when grouped. Also, connecting to Multiplayer has been quite finicky, with "Unable to perform NAT Punch 66" at random times. Sometimes, like today, it doesn't work at all (tried 7 times).

Hate to say it, but this patch seriously broke the game worse.

Two game-breaking bugs across all my playthroughs.

I'm really not sure if this has been already reported or not but, why does our main character, Tav or others who ARE NOT Shadowheart, keep receiving Shadowheart's Mysterious Artefact? Back in Early Access you CAN only receive it IF you manage to kill Shadowheart whilst still on the Naotiloid. Now, the first time you dismiss her from your party you get it permanently tied to your main character with no way of returning it to her. Making you needing to PERMANENTLY have Shadowheart in your party.

If this hasn't been reported yet, Why in the Nine Hells?

because Larian doesn't play test their code changes is why

its also why your gith starts the giff patrol fight without any gear now i.e, so moving items when you kick party members makes weard shit happens but at least they didn't have to look for the gear anymore

About the Companions' bags and key chains being transferred to your Main Character when dismissing them...

Somebody over at the Steam forums said that this issue DOES NOT affect characters of a Freshly started campaign, so I took the day off testing it AND it is in fact true!

If I should hazard a guess, I think we should treat Patch 3 like one of the Major Patches back in Early Access in that our current campaign is now FUBARed and we should just start anew.

As for other bugs/issues we're currently experiencing, like the Strange Ox murdering Dammon, I've no idea if a Fresh Campaign will also sort the issue or not.

And the Save File issue with traders... For now the "Look for a Trader that opens up the Barter menu instead of the Trade menu before you save" workaround will have to suffice for now.

I've run a new campaign since patch, did all Act1, cleared all Underdark, not a single glitch.
Went to the Monastary, everything still fine until......
Try to go to camp and crashes, every time.

"NPCs will no longer run away from anything but the to improve interactivity and flow."

this is probably the best change patch 3 brought, I hated playing necromancer in patch 1,everyone scurrying away at the sight of 1 zombie,had to always dismiss them where there were civilians/any neutral NPC, same was with cambions and Mayrina husband and Thay zombie spell, now I see I am free to go wherever and none starts panicking

What was not fixed yet tho: Animate Dead , skeleton it's still not a ranged NPC as the tooltips says!

Any word on a hotfix? The game is broken.

Thanks for breaking the Gale romance, it's nice that you patched in homophobia for us

Can we get some communication about the long list of issues players are experiencing?

I'm so sorry to say, but Patch 3 feels like an overall failure. SO many features broken, new bugs, and unnecessary changes nobody wanted (you wasted time making goofy cosmetic changes instead of addressing problems and commonly requested features?) I cannot understand how Raphael's hair color was a patch priority when we should be getting expanded character creation options instead. Hello Act3 performance?

Not to say the Magic Mirror isn't welcome but it's disappointingly limited. Companions should have access to alterations, idc--they should. You can't even change your scales as a Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer. You have to respec at Withers instead... Like huh?


Regardless of complaints, much love and thank you for all your hard work.

I actually believe this is by design. Basically, the artifact has to be in someone's hand in the active party. If you send Shadowheart back to the camp, it switches to TAV.

It's NOT by design... NOT originally that is. You'd know had you played Early Access as back then the Artefact ALWAYS stayed with Shadowheart unless you managed to have her die on the Early Access version of the Nautiloid Ship. Back then, if you did manage to have her die the Artefact magically floats towards Tav a la "Pokemon I Choose You!" and will then be tied to Tav Permanently. Another proof it is not intended is how secretive Shadowheart is about the item and tells you off that it is none of your business. So yeah "Lore wise" it shouldn't be automagically given and bound to our MC if we're NOT Shadowheart and she doesn't die losing her bind to it.

Also by your logic, and how the item works "Lore wise", it SHOULD automagically return to Shadowheart once you put her back in your active party.

RFE - Addendum:

There is also a Long Rest Night Scene with Shadowheart you'll likely miss if you're playing a character like Tav and the Artefact has bound to you, where Shadowheart will be seen trying to open it and you'll notice that the thing is inscribed with Githyanki runes. So yeah it's definitely NOT supposed to be removed from Shadowheart.

I also think this is intentional. There is no reason for Shadowheart to keep the artefact after TAV and the rest of the party know what it is, but there is plenty of reason for TAV to have it, being the main character and the character who is always in the party.

But that happens until AFTER you progress her story with the item, so until then having it BEFORE knowing what it truly is IS NOT CORRECT "Lore wise" and NON-CANON.

the only complaint I have so far in Patch3 is I romanced Shadowheart, and when the urge kicks in the game pretends Wyll is my romance. Later when I lick the animal carcass and get "aroused" , the game pretends Gale is my Romance... some things get fixed, while others get broken, not very consistent are we Larian?
