After all, just simply save-scumming or accepting death isn\u2019t as easy, and will come with consequences. So, when one player warned the community about a \u201csecret death trap\u201d they\u2019d come across, it made complete sense that the playerbase would take heed. After all, no one wants to go through the unfortunate series of events this player experienced. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player warns of \u201csecret death trap\u201d in Waukeen\u2019s Rest Sharing their unlucky experience on Reddit, one user warned players by explaining how \u201cWaukeen\u2019s Rest is a Secret Death Trap in Honour Mode.\u201d They then revealed how this location became so deadly: So I was beating up some gnolls when I saw Waukeen\u2019s Rest burning in a corner and thought \u201cWhy not, there\u2019s some good loot there.\u201d Cut to me trying to break down the door to save Counsellor Florrick. Lae\u2019zel could have easily done it with one hit but I didn\u2019t want to risk burning the place down with her flaming sword. So instead all my companions were just taking turns chipping away at the 25+ hp door.\u201d Surely simply hitting a door can\u2019t cause any real issues? However, it\u2019s not the door that nearly wiped out this party. Instead, as \u201cWyll was about to land the finishing blow, like a vindictive DM that had just learned how to DM, the blast misses and hits a Flaming Fist standing on a DIFFERENT floor. Yup, there were hidden holes in the floor. Cue the entire building getting aggro\u2019ed.\u201d Naturally, most players would reload in this situation, but since it was Honour Mode, that wasn\u2019t possible, meaning the player was trapped inside a burning building while being attacked by everyone on the map. Luckily, the player attempted to escape: \u201cI look to my right and see beyond a broken door on the balcony. Like a bunch of rejects from a James Bond movie, my surviving party members make it a mission to escape from the window. Wyll breaks the door down before going down himself. My sorcerer spends a turn jumping through the remains of the broken door before misty stepping off the ledge and making a break for it. Lae\u2019zel casts Enhanced Leap and super jumps like a flying squirrel after him.\u201d Then in a rather fortunate turn of events, \u201cRight as I click the \u2018Flee Combat\u2019 button, the game crashes. My last save is before Waukeen\u2019s rest. This time, Lae\u2019zel just broke down the damn door.\u201d Sure, on a good day where the dice and \u2018DM\u2019 aren\u2019t against you, Waukeen\u2019s rest could be a great place to explore, but just be careful when throwing any stray spells or attacks, or you may just ruin your Honour mode run.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player warns of \u201csecret death trap\u201d in Honour Mode Larian StudiosNow that Honour Mode is in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, players will have to be pretty careful when heading into battle \u2013 especially when they come across this \u201csecret death trap.\u201d While Honour Mode is an exciting new addition to Baldur\u2019s Gate after [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20324","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20324","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20324"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20324\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20324"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20324"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20324"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
