Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Latest News Patch #5 - Version number: 4.1.1.1173402

Not in 5e, not anymore. Classes are much more malleable, and not so strictly separated. In this case, DEX modifier + Sleight Of Hand proficiency is all that matters (oh, and the Guidance cantrip helps a lot). Since Shadowheart has Urchin background, it gives her the aforementioned proficiency; plus, her Dexterity is so abnormally high for a cleric that it's possible to use her instead of a Rogue (I do). Until / unless Larian will implement proficiency in tools and / or skill expertise, she is essentially on par with Astarion as far as locks and traps are concerned.
In BG3, inventory is... stretchy. She "uses" disarming tools if anyone in the party has them. Same with keys.

Now I thought we would get a Druid with the new update but so far I've Not found him/her. Also do enemies respawn? Reason for which I'm asking is I've cleared out The Blighted Village and the Risen road toll house that's why I'm asking.


The druid is a playable class with the last big update, not a companion.

I haven't found anyplace yet where enemies respawn. Once they are dead, they dead.

Have a great day!

You know, you're probably right, and I agree.

That said, my issue is that people keep knocking the Camp Supplies system, acting like it's the issue and it ruins the game, but it isn't the camping system. It's the item management. If item management was easier, camping would be no big deal.

I like what they did with camping supplies. I want them to keep it and streamline it. I like how if you don't want to be bothered with it much, you can just hit auto select and done. If you do want to pick out the food and be all immersive, you have the ability to do so. Sometimes I care, and pick out the food, and sometimes I don't and just hit select. The first time I played Patch 5, I had them eat fish and garlic and some wine with some fruit for desert. It took barely any effort, and it was, for me, a nice little bit of roleplaying.

Ok, I'm curious as to whether or not anyone else has noticed this but I thought that some of the potions like the one for fire resistance are supposed to be beneficial to a player. I was in Waukeens rest and My female ranger who has 50% or so fire resistance drank a potion of Fire resistance before she went into the building and she took damage from the fire like she went in without drinking the potion or having the natural fire resistance what gives with that?

Resistance doesn't stack, and it doesn't measure percentages per se. You're either resistant, in which case you take half damage from the damage type, or you are not, in which case you take full (or potentially, you might be vulnerable, and take double but that's exceptionally rare). If your Ranger has fire resistance then she is taking half damage from all sources of fire already, and that's it. Unless you have something that will grant you immunity to fire damage, that's the best she can do - there is no such thing as double resistance.

If she isn't halving the fire damage you take, and is taking the same damage as everyone else who doesn't have fire resistance, then that does sound like a bug, and is worth reporting.

Ah the good (bad) old days of fire resistance being so high that fire healed you. Glad they removed that little bit of nonsense.

I mean even if you are made of fire that doesn't mean fire would heal you. That would be like being made of flesh and throwing flesh at a person healed them - or just punching people back to full health.

I'm just wondering if this game will ever get finished.
