Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Help Tips & Tricks Drop corpse when you enter Chok'an Kith'rak Therezzyn commander room immediately

Chok'an Kith'rak Therezzyn commander and his guards attack immediately. You skip insert artifact action. After fight engine forcefully begin Vlaakith cinematic. You go to Astral Prism. After you talk to to guardian and leave Astral Prism you skip the Chok'an Kith'rak Therezzyn ambush cinematic. Because you already killed them. This skip 2 cinematics and insert artifact action. This is speed run glitch. Dropping corpse directly to Chok'an Kith'rak Therezzyn, you trigger a hard-coded law enforcement rule. The game engine treats dropping a dead body in a clean, highly secure military room as a severe crime. Using your corpse dropping crime strategy, you completely scrambled engine timeline. You killed the Commander and his guards before ever touching the artifact or seeing the Guardian. This game has more glitches then other video games and they make you laugh.

I don't get how this differs from just... Attacking?

Like, correct me if I'm wrong, but all you're doing is using the body to force aggression... Which attacking also does.

You mention some cinematics being skipped... But I normally just skip them anyway by attacking first (The only difference is I don't normally engage when Inquisitor W'wargaz is still in the room because on higher difficulties that would be a pretty difficult fight with all of them at once)

I expected it to to not work to attack githyanki commander before you talk to him and cinematic would start before you could. But it's this common and simple to break this, Vlaakith, artifact, Astral Prism, Lae'zel being betrayed quest timeline then. Larian didn't try to stop you from not doing this the intended way.
