Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player endlessly spams worst spell to conquer Honor Mode Larian StudiosAn intrepid Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player has overcome the game\u2019s biggest challenge by casting its worst spell thousands of times. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s Honor Mode is a later addition to the game that ups its challenge rather significantly. Functioning similar to a Hardcore mode in other games, if the player\u2019s party is wiped, the run is over. There have been countless instances of hilarious ends to Honor Mode runs retold by Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players. Whether it\u2019s Scratch being too good a boy for his own good or giving into base desire and becoming a sex slave, a lot can go wrong. Just getting to the end of Honor Mode in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is a legendary feat which is what makes YouTuber Fracture\u2019s latest challenge run so impressive. First picked up by GamesRadar+, Fracture overcame the game\u2019s most difficult undertaking by only using its worst spell. In a video titled \u2018I Beat Honour Mode by Casting True Strike 2,468 times\u2019, Fracture details how they\u2026 well\u2026 beat Honor mode by casting True Strike 2,468 times. It\u2019s pretty much exactly what it says on the box. They explain it best. \u201cIn this run, I didn\u2019t use explosives. There were no necrotic corpse shenanigans. I didn\u2019t attack my enemies or use weapon special abilities that deal damage,\u201d Fracture elaborates in the video\u2019s intro. True Strike is almost universally agreed to be not only the worst spell in D&D but also Baldur\u2019s Gate 3. The spell gives you Advantage on your next action which sounds appealing until you realize it costs an action to cast and a lost opportunity for damage in Honor mode is incredibly punishing. Fortunately, Fracture had a solution. They acquire an item that gives True Strike Reverberate. That means that every fifth cast of the skill deals 1-4 lightning damage. Truly a devastating upgrade. The short of it is that for every combat encounter that Fracture finds themself in, they have to spam True Strike hundreds of times. To mitigate this massive hassle, they spend most of their run outright avoiding combat through dialogue or sneaking. It\u2019s tedious and arduous work, but also incredibly entertaining. Fracture manages to clinch the Honor Mode run without any other exploits, including opting for a quick finish via Gale explosion which many players do to seal the win. We won\u2019t spoil it further.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
