Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players warn against \u201cunderestimating\u201d weak enemies Larian StudiosThe Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 community has revealed the seemingly weaker enemies in the game that pose much more of a threat than players expect. While Larian\u2019s critically acclaimed RPG has plenty of big bosses that take up most players\u2019 attention and preparation, some of the game\u2019s unassuming enemies can be just as dangerous if not treated with the respect they deserve. This included creatures encountered in the very first area of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, such as the Red Caps and Frog found just outside of Aunti Ethel\u2019s house. A fan took to the game\u2019s subreddit to ask about the \u201cseemingly weak\u201d enemies that have caused the most trouble for others, and it didn\u2019t take long for the community to list creatures from Act 1\u2019s swamp. In discussing the Red Caps, one user said, \u201cIt\u2019s all fine and good, and you think they\u2019re meh. Then in comes a\u2026 dropkick.\u201d Another fan took to this comment to share their own story. They explained that after getting destroyed in their first fight with them, their second, successful bout still came at a cost. They said, \u201c\u2026 It ended with my Tav and Shadowheart downed, Gale on one HP, and Astarion miraculously on 11 HP thanks to False Life.\u201d However, the Red Caps were not the only threat to those journeying through Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Act 1, with a single frog posing a massive threat. While this creature, called the Addled Frog, is not aggressive at first, if a player tries to pester it for too long, it will attack and do far more damage than people expected. One player said, \u201cSeeing a playthrough and someone and their entire team getting annihilated by this tiny creature was\u2026 eye-opening.\u201d Another user even claimed that the Addled Frog almost ended their Honour Mode run single-handedly. These two enemies are not the only ones mentioned in the thread, as plenty of others have shared their experiences with unsuspecting enemies like random groups of bandits, hermit crabs, and even a dying mind flayer that ate the brain of the poor player who failed their roll against its Mind Control. While foes like Raphael may dominate the conversation around Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 and its dangers, it seems that there are plenty of threats that come in smaller packages as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
