Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players are tired of saving the game\u2019s most \u201cuseless\u201d NPC Larian StudiosBaldur\u2019s Gate 3 players have had enough of one important but \u201cuseless\u201d NPC who constantly appears in all three Acts. Counsellor Florrick is a Wizard and advisor to Grand Duke Ulder Ravengard, father of companion and Origin character Wyll. However, as one Reddit user pointed out, Florrick probably shouldn\u2019t have her job. As the player outlines in a post on the Baldurs Gate 3 subreddit, Florrick is a fairly powerful Wizard, but throughout the game, she either needs to be saved or refuses to help out. This leads the poster to conclude that, despite reaching level 11 by Act 3, \u201cShe\u2019s f****** useless.\u201d Florrick first appears in Act 1, where she needs to be saved from a burning building. However, the commenter notes, \u201cShe could\u2019ve misty stepped or used a spell to get herself out\u201d since she is, at the time, a level 6 Wizard. After that, she tasks the party with rescuing the Grand Duke, though it\u2019s never clear why she can\u2019t do more to help out. In Act 2, Florrick shows up at the Last Light Inn, though she quickly leaves for Baldur\u2019s Gate, again not helping the party in their quest to find her employer. She goes on to play an even larger \u2013 and potentially more frustrating \u2013 role in Act 3. At first, Florrick can be found awaiting execution in Wyrm\u2019s Rock Prison after being falsely accused by a brainwashed Grand Duke Ravengard. Even if the player saves her here, though, that doesn\u2019t stop her from being a potential headache. If the player chooses to free Wyll from his pact with the cambion Mizora rather than saving his father, Florrick will confront the party and try to kill Wyll. As the poster put it \u201cShe completely buys into the idea that Wyll is a power-hungry monster,\u201d believing a literal devil over a young man she probably watched grow up and requiring a DC 18 Persuasion check to change her mind. All of these moments have players wondering how Florrick ended up in such an important and trusted position. \u201cI always wondered why she believes Mizora,\u201d said one. \u201cEven if she took human form, that some random lady telling that Wyll killed his dad.\u201d While some pointed out that devils are pretty good at charming people, others pointed out a flaw in that logic. If you call out Florrick for trusting a devil, she says you have a point, making clear she knows the truth about Mizora. Still, others pointed out that this is a common occurrence among Wizards, who are meant to be far more book-smart than street-smart. \u201cClassic Wizard. High Intelligence, Low Wisdom,\u201d said a commenter. \u201cFeel free to join the party of Gale, Balthazar, Lorroakan, and Volo.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
