Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Patch 8 - Merchant exploit(HEXBLADE)

Merchant Exploit still exists in patch 8 with the hexblade bind weapon. Someone posted it on youtube earlier, I put down the link below. Maybe we can get a hotfix?



Also, giant barbarian's rage throw damage doubling does not scale with level. It's fixed at +4 instead of becoming +6 at level 9.

Belongs in the Technical & Gameplay Issues subforum so it doesn't get lost. But it is always exciting to see how persistent these trade exploits are and how many different and creative ways they are “tried out” by the gamers.

Shhhhhh xD

🤣 but why 🤣

Never understood why it matters so much and why Larian always jumps to patch these ASAP.

its actually just a result of lazy copy/ paste code... they repaired it but didn't bother to go back to the source material so when they copy pasted the old code to make the new warlock spell it came back into the game

game design is code + document... its dirt basic

That's... a singular complaint, given that they are more or less notorious for doing the exact opposite a lot of times.

They've been on record for years saying that they were aware of several exploits (even in their past games) and they never patched them out because (and I quote) "players feel smart when they find out and use these, so this makes the game more fun for them".

If anything I'd love to see them addressing exploits and incorrect mechanical implementations way more often.
