Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems Patch 4 did not fix Lae'zel at the Zaethisk.

Patch 4 did not fix Lae'zel at the Zaethisk. I don't get an opportunity for my character to let her go first so I have to switch to here and go to the chair directly. When I put her in the chair all I get is a cutscene where the struggles, the machine blows up, and then she gets all the failed save penalties without any failed saves and without me getting the chance to make the persuade checks that my bard got to do in my previous campaign. Until this gets fixed my only option is to anger Lae'zel by denying her the first ride in the death machine, which I don't want to do.

That's not the point of the thread. The point of the thread is the defect where the saving throws and persuade checks are not being triggered when she rides the machine.

Wait till act 3 and you will see just how much isn't fixed lol

Strange- I've done this part several times since Hotfix 10 dropped and letting Lae'zel go into the zae'thisk, or losing the rolls to tell her no, always worked. Are you on PC and using any mods?

Can you record a short video I am intrested.

I'm playing on PC. I don't mod games. I walk up to the Zaethisk and Laezel says "you deny me my right to go first" but the conversation where she actually demands to go first and I let her is missing. All I can do is control her and walk her up to the machine, where she gets in and the whole sequence plays out without any saving throws or persuade checks. It just blows up and she gets all 3 penalties. She's always in my party and has a good approval rating (the marker is past the L in Approval).

And after she blows up the zaithisk the NPC doesn't even respond to the fact that the machine got trashed.

It isn't specific to that campaign. My druid was near the same point so I progressed to the zaithisk and encountered the same problem.

Unfortunately patch 5 did not resolve this issue with the Zaethisk scene. Lae'zel still rides the chair like a cutscene with no interruptions for me to convince her to get out.

Confirming, the same issue affects Lae'zel in the Zaethisk scene in Patch 5. Major bummer as I don't want to progress further without this fixed .

I have another campaign that I started after hitting this bug and I just got to the same point and the scene worked. I don't know what is different. For my monk I walked up to the Zaethisk and Lae'zel did her bit about how happy she was to be there and I was explicitly given the option to let her go first. I got the persuade options to try and get her out. I'm a monk though so they're utterly impossible BUT they're there. I double checked on my paladin and druid which were both started back in September and those campaigns are still stuck with the bug.
