Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players unimpressed by Patch 6 NPC changes Larian StudiosThe Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 community is noticing an improvement to Gondian behavior after Patch 6\u2019s release, though there is still room to grow. The Gondians are a small group of characters that play a role in one of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s biggest side quests of Act 3. However, their behavior caused players a lot of frustration as they always seemed to put themselves in harm\u2019s way. But this seems to have changed after Patch 6, though many in the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 playerbase believe there is still plenty of ways to improve. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans think Gondians are smarter after patch The Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 community is discussing the change on the game\u2019s subreddit, where a player asks: \u201cIs it me or have the Gondians stopped being suicidal?\u201d They explain how before Patch 6\u2019s release, the Gondians always would waste abilities to get close to an enemy that was about to explode, and overall, just put themselves in harm\u2019s way all the time. However, it seems this is no longer the case: \u201cThey\u2019re using Misty Step to get away from the Banites and the Watchers and attack them from range with Acid Arrow or Fire Bolt. Some even use it to get to the tubes in the roof where they are out of range for everyone???\u201d The community is largely in agreement that the Gondians are much better than they were, though as one user says: \u201cThey\u2019re better but they\u2019ve still got death wishes.\u201d Another Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fan shares a section of the patch notes that mentions improving the combat with the Gondians, including making them more careful and smarter. The issue is that the fans think its changes the wrong thing about them: \u201cHonestly, their stats, proficiencies, and spells were not the problem. Their tendency to actively suicide and take objectively bad actions was the problem.\u201d It\u2019s clear that Patch 6 made some improvements to the Gondians, as well as plenty of other things in the game, but there is still more work to be done. \u201cJust yesterday I had one cast Grease over an open flame and have it immediately explode. It did nothing but damage and kill one of the other Gondians who was at low health but would\u2019ve otherwise survived.\u201d Despite its massive success, the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 community does see areas that it can improve and it\u2019ll be up to the devs to do so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
