call for Larian to insert legendary actions in Hardcore mode

[John Weak]

Or at least make it an adjustable option for a custom game?
Locking this enemy ability behind an ironman mode is simply unacceptable considering this should even be the basic mechanism for 5e

[Mike Garrison]

Edit: OK, I was wrong. I thought I saw this when I started my custom mode game, but I must have been confused by having just read the Honor mode description moments before.

well i just check the custom mode menu and i did not see any "honor mode" options only 3 basic difficulties come out

There's also no "Ironman mode".
People seem to have missed it, Honour is not Perma Death, once you get TPKO the game just puts you into custom mode

Has anyone confirmed that dying in honor mode keeps all the other stuff like legendary actions and new boss abilities etc?

Good question. Mike Garrison says he saw the options. I went through them quickly and there was a lot but can't say it said legendary abilities clearly in it. easy to check though

Make it in custom, for god's sake. They literally added the option for you to do that along with honor mode.
Honor mode is just a challenge mode that gives you a little reward if you can do it. If you don't care, just recreate it in custom and take out whatever you didn't want to be there. ******* easy!

I just fired up the game and went to the custom mode start table, and there was no mention of Legendary Actions. Sorry to have provided bad info.

No problem Mike. I am inclined to believe that if you push all those sliders up you might still get Legendary actions in custom.

But that's something i will confirm very soon

Let us know.

I selected the slider for giving enemies "more dangerous loadouts", which seems like the one that would maybe do it. I left the one for enemy aggression at "balanced", though. I figured that's probably the one that makes enemies go after the killing blow on downed characters.

From what I've gathered, Legendary Actions are an HM exclusive thing. Losing in HM will put you into CM, meaning that you'll no longer have the slight enemy buffs in later parts of the game nor will you have LAs on legendary creatures.

Thats a little sad if true. Understandable though. IT really is a hardcore thing.
Im, even more inclined now to do a whole run in Honour

Time to wait for a mod to remove the 1 save part from honor mode. I have never been or will ever be interested in ironman type gamemodes, idk why larian thought its a good idea to put the other interesting difficulty options behind this one thing.

Considering how BG3's been going, odds are they're gonna patch it in as an option in Custom.
