Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 9

Would be nice to have some time to play around with Level 5 before full release. Not optimistic though.

1) Paladin

2) Plate armor

3) Multiclass

4) Missing subclasses

5) Hexblade

6) Hexblade

7) Hexblade

etc :P

I want both half-orc and dragonborn as they will probably attempt a cosplay of them during the panel from hell

A proper reaction system

Shove fixed to 5 ft and made an action

Single player game to be able to pause the entire world

Expandable hotbar, need more spaces

The ability to pan the camera up and down

Question is: What you did before?

Comunity figured out that certain actions corrupt your game so it crash when you save ...
Example of such action is Goodberry ... if you try to learn it, cast it, or eat it ... next time you save it will crash no matter what.
Hope that helps.

<3 <3 <3

Fix the god damn hotkey in the bar and Dual-wielding non light weapon for fuck sake...

I hope for a new class and hope for paladin.
I hope they fix the lighting problem.
I expect a release date.

And that's about it. No other hopes or expectations. At this point I just want to be done with the patches and experience the full game

Give me a UI that I can resize (as in Make the Mini Map Mini again), including all the portraits etc.
Stop all the exaggerated audio- and visual effects, so I don't feel I'm playing a Disney cartoon anymore.
Extra content would be nice, but for that I can wait for the full release.

Combat revamp.

Two of the three main combat ressources have been significantly changed (bonus actions and reactions) from the source rules. The changes make combat cumbersome (selecting reactions) and repetitive (selecting bonus actions). I hope this gets changed.

Swen said in DoS2's post mortem that early access players saw the problem with combat and he wished Larian had addressed their concerns. Concerns about BG3's combat have existed from day 1. Let's hope Larian learn from their well documented mistakes.

My personal preference at this point would be that they stop patching content and save everything for the release of the game. I think it would just 'hit harder' if there is a massive content dump at launch rather than it continuing to trickle in.

As for what I think will be announced at the next PFH though.

1. A new class OR tacking on some subclasses instead to start to save some content for launch.
2. If it is just subclasses then maybe a new companion in order to address player disappointment.
3. More visual updates, polish, UI upgrades, QoL stuff, etc.

I am confident that will be the case. They have been holding stuff off till 1.0 in the past, and they are bound to pull the same trick again.

I am really hoping for the Paladin and maybe some expansion to the the Clerics/Priests so there are more Deities and Domains of Clerical/Priestly magic to choose from.

Plate Armour would be great if it comes with the Paladin to put in it.

I would love to see some crafting become available beyong the Masterwork Weapon and single potion brewing in the Druids Grove.

Some magic belts and gloves would be nice, if nothing else, they would fill the empty spaces on the inventory.

Reactioooooons!!!

Paladin class. Hopefully multiclass possibility. More subclasses for classes and more domains for Cleric. Well if multiclass will not be in BG3 then please tell that information.

The spells Spirit Guardians and Spiritual Weapon so I can play a Cleric the way I’d like to!

Spiritual Weapon had some patch notes in Patch 8, but then they removed it from the changelog. I don't know why they haven't implemented it yet to the public if it's in the files.

I just wish the communication blackout was over and they published a detailed Roadmap.

Thank you for at least replying! I have made comments about this on every forum and multiple threads, and including filled a support ticket with Larian that never got answered lmao!

So I'm talking I can't save past the first battle with lazeal on the nautiloid. Or maybe save at all. It auto saves when you are first on the nautiloid and at certain scenes right?

So my issue with patch 8, even after re-installing the game is that if I try to manually save it crashes, no matter what or when. And extremely early. Right off the bat. It seems to only accept auto saves for whatever reason.

Patch 9 paladin, some new items, some bug fixes Nov 2022

Q1 2023 Monk, some new items, some bug fixes.

Q2 2023 1.0 to get lvl 5+, reactions, missing subclasses, extra companions, more bug fixes, multiclassing, finish act1 and act 2+

Possibility we get say reactions to test just before 1.0

Saw this posted in the Steam discussion forum. Any thoughts? It looks legit,
