Tips for Ansur fight?

[Mista Dobalina]

I was pretty close but am honestly scared to try again... Any tips would be much appreciated. I am playing on tactician with Wyll, Karlach, Shadowheart, and myself (paladin).

Just gut him solo before he makes a move like I did on my honor mode lol

Perilous stakes, then beat him to death in 1 turn.
(without knowing very specific things on what you're struggling with, that's all I can say)

You can always barrelmance your way to victory.

if you're struggling, I find that the tier 6 spell the invuln globe is really useful in ansur fight. so bring a wizard/sorc. probably throw away karlach in place of gale.

A (probably) oversight that lets bards hit the same target twice with the ranged version of slashing flourish.

It’s been like this since vanilla.

I think it’s intentional the same way Eldrich blast is supposed to hit 3 targets but can hit the same every time.

Also rangers have similar skill and you can’t hit the same target twice. So if they didn’t intended it they would have made it the same way as Ranger

Just completed it and had Minsc using the sword duellist's prerogative. The Skill "Challenge to Duel" prevented him from flying in the air and going super nova cause he had to keep attack in him. Made the fight easier

Yeah, tag Ansur with Bloodthirst. And then pump Arrows of Dragon Slaying into him. Done.

Electric resist elixirs/ring helps, also globe of invulnerability negates his big AOE completely.

[Chroniver]

You can try stacking all the classes that have many hits in one turn such as certain Warlock multiclasses.

I took him on while he was buffed with a bunch of mods (stronger bosses + honourmode legendary actions + more resistance & spells) and then he was extremely gnarly.

One cheese tactic you can do aside from things like globe of invulnerability is to run your range characters back into the room that you came out of when he does the massive blast thing. That way they avoid it.

But you do need 1 char in the room to tank it cus he will otherwise proceed to do aoe ranged attacks that ignore line of sight with his legendary actions.

Explosives. Barrels, bombs, firework boxes. Boom

Someone needs to make this clip into Ansur instead of the Doctor (aka the oncoming storm as he is so often called).

edit - bonus points for turning the background two characters (Amy and Rory) into BG3 party members.

He can't activate his electric nuke attack if he's under the effects of Slow or Black Hole

[Pat Fenis]

This was tough because his legendary breath reaction hits everyone in melee even if spread out on opposite sides. I went at it with 3 range characters, 1 melee + summons. Everyone chugs haste potion, and banish elementals if they are too annoying but otherwise try not to waste actions on them.
