Which adamantine Item do you usualy forge?
I did the shield and the mace before, but this time I forged scale plate armor for Shadowheart. But can't decide which 2. item.

I do use Karlach as front fighter so I don't need the heavy armor. But I could make the heavy armor and give it Laezel just for fun.

I could also go with the shield also for Shadowheart or the Mace. But shields and weapons there are a couple other great ones in the game already. What do you think?

That's a tough one, The Splint(Plate armor) its Top 3 best Armor pieces, I don't feel like the shield is good enough to make unless it going to a completely different member and even then its only good cause of the immunity to crit.

- to make my talk shorter, I lean on Splint and Mace, While long sword has more versatility with members, there are fewer enemies resistant to Blunt weapons and given that it always crits on objects like chest and doors, you can avoid having a lock picker if you're out of tools.

It never occurred to me that they wanted a breaking weapon and that all the Adamantine stuff does this!
You can also just throw them a cheap hammer.

They didn't want what I offered, so when I went back after the BIG fight, they were gone. Not sure if they escaped or were evaporated...

Some combination of medium armor, heavy armor, or shield.

First playthrough was medium armor and shield.

Back in early access, I used to get one of the weapons, because they inflicted Reeling on hit.

That does not seem to be the case anymore, as they now just bypass damage resistance and inflict auto crits on objects.

So now I've been forging the shield and one of the armor pieces, usually Splint.

Crit immunity is very powerful on a barbarian that leverages reckless attack. I imagine the shield would be good, but it's in competition with +10 hp and a first level spell slot and spell save DC+dex saving throw advantage.
