Amulet of Lost Voices - Way better than I remember!

[Lucky Mud]

You know that amulet you get right out of the gate that lets you cast Speak with Dead once per day?

Turns out it's way more awesome than I thought. Not only does it allow you to speak with as many corpses per day as you like, after you've used it once in the current day you will see a glow around any other corpses that have a message for you.

It really seemed like I'd get one shot daily to hope that the deadie I cast on is worth talking to, so I was never willing to blow the cooldown for random curiosity. But nope, all the time, as much as you want, and with helpful auras to guide you.

Corpses say more interesting things than I expected. Heard that saying, "dead men tell no tales?" Closer to say that they keep no secrets.

The dead in BG3 are chattier than a sewing circle.

I'll check that thing now. I've never used it.

I think my party is saved right next to a dead guy on a rock slab, too.

So you can cast it once per day and it lasts a full day?

No you can use it as many times as you want. But once you use it during day corpses who has information will start to glow

Yep. It's technically only one "cast" and then as many "re-casts" as you want, and you don't see the aura until you've used it once that day.

It's especially nice when you meet someone who isn't as forthcoming as you like, and then later you... have access to their corpse.
Enhanced interrogation indeed.

If you look around, there are people with solid answers about things like "Who is the Absolute?"

[katzenkrimis]

Wow, that was pretty cool.

Much more info and hoopla than I was expecting. Even had its own cutscene.

This dude that I cast it on, told me about the Druid, the Bear and Minthara.

He slipped away before giving me locations, but who cares.

That was good.

It gets overridden by some spells like detect thought, so not awesome at least for me.
