I HATE the Goblin Camp

[Beans]

I'm so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ pissed. This game is amazing, but, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ does ♥♥♥♥ turn up to 100 if you try to take out the Goblin Leaders. Four hours of watching Shadowheart fail every single attack. Wyll is incapable of even doing a skip (he can't jump). I keep selecting multiswing with Karlach but it seems to be the only melee move in the entire game that doesn't auto-move you first so I keep swinging at the air. I let this dude beat me just to tell me I didn't scream in pain well enough. I scream great.

It's really not that hard, just tedious, and the tiniest mistake can absolutely destroy you.

But what kills me, literally, is that your reward is a key to a room full of armed death traps and absolutely nothing of value. What a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ prank. Bravo Larian.

Personally, I dont suggest pushing enemies down chasms. You miss out on lots of good loot that way.

Which is awesome cost benefit design. You can win easily but you miss out.

Use the beams inside taking out all three of the leaders also use alot of stealth, set yourself up for each fight, once outside "Make sure you knock out the wall at the top" then exit out that, then use the high ground to pick them off its not hard if you take your time..

Also, the room where Minthara is, there's a chasm with a wooden bridge. Push her into the chasm, or, if you can get her to stand on the bridge, attack the wooden support so it gives way under her.

But then you miss out on the nice light armour which will also be in the chasm.

^^^^^ Cannot express how great that armor is. I have a half-drow Ranger and that light armor gives me the same AC as my +1 scale armor did and +1 to Stealth.

Also if its not useful to you its worth a large amount of gold.

I had really fun with that Goblin Camp.
But I played it a bit unusual I guess. I hiered the female thief made her an assasine and sneaked up individuals.
Somewhen it went wrong and the whole Goblin Camp came after her. But they failed to see my three other party members hidden in the shadow. So I intercepted a few on their way and then it was on.
She survived with 1 HP .. :)

And the Bosses.. well one after the other.
The last thew one ..the thief ...down to those spiders so it became again interesting.


Later in the underground I had an awesome suprise fight with a beholder in the middle of some clifs and traps and my party splitted. But I had some drow arrows. They are OP ..managed to put the beholder into sleep twice. I won that fight at the end, Don't want to tell more and only those really exploring everything will likely get into the same situation.

That game is really versatile how you can approach and fight. I really like that. In that aspect it is awesome.

Just did it, had fun. Had a great battle with the main guy that I used a couple pushes and sent him down to play with the spiders and grease at the door to stop the rest and then flamed it. Pincushioned him with arrows once the spiders were killed. Great game with so many ways to play.

Wait you used grease and it actually worked? the AI failed the save?
I was under the impression this wasnt possible.

[Snake Bit]

I just used the horn to summon the ogres and let them eat the most damage while I focused on clearing the fort.

[Clegane]

Lol, I cleared the Goblins camp with first try.

[Sovereign108]

You are gonna love the Gnoll 'camp' lol.

[buttawise]

I love the Goblin Camp it's my favorite area to navigate. If you're clever you can pick off a lot of stragglers without drawing attention and all you need are a couple well placed Silence Spells (Ritual btw) and some nice Athletics checks. Don't even need stealth for 80% of it. How you wipe them out is up to you. There are ways to free Halsin and get him to help you. You can side with them and kill Druids. Or you can just ignore it all, pick pocket and scheme your way around and join the cult. Or skip ALL of the aforementioned stuff and go right into the Underdark using stealth.

This game rules.

[DarkerThanSins]

Don't forget to poison the drinking bowl outside, it clears the ones outside by half. After you clean them up you can slowly make your way in and kill everyone no problem. Use silence and grease, they're your best friends. Kill Mithra at the grove, kill the priest in her room and kill the leader by thunder waving them into the pit. Minor illusion is good for drawing enemies to an area where you can push or blow them up.

(Big crpg/D&D/Larian games vet)

My biggest tips would be

-Only aggro as few enemies as possible (This can be life or death)
-Take out 1 target at a time (preferably casters)
-Use your consumables (early scrolls/poisons really pile up)

-Experiment with team comps. in D&D almost any composition can work. The strongest builds I find to be tanky, have utility, have damage scaling and are preferably ranged. (Exceptions for some builds)

Some builds I've found to be very strong.

-Eldritch knight thrower (Broken damage atm)
-Paladin + Warlock (Amazing build in D&D and an amazing build in this game)
-Fighter Duel Wielding Crossbows (High AC, High Damage,)
-Cleric (Maybe the strongest class in D&D 5e)
-Druid (Extreme Cheese potential)
-Gloomstalker Ranger (Stealth is really really broken in this game)

Having a utility character or a party that isn't perfect is fine. I only really play crpg's with 1 character with the exception of Xcom if you count that as a crpg.

Respec shadowheart like seriously... She gets given dex but the only weapon she would be able to use finesse on is a dagger lmao, give her some strength instead so she can at least hit somewhat more consistant with the mace aside of using her cleric spells.
