Or, you could do what most players do and use a single spell to bypass them all. As Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 uses D&D 5E rules, the developers did their best to try and emulate the tabletop experience in video game form. This is why nearly every corpse and animal can be spoken to, as these can be done using spells. Unfortunately, some magical effects can make the game a lot easier. In fact, the Dispel Magic spell was cut from the game early in development due to how much it complicated almost every encounter in the game. One other spell has a similar effect in the final game, at least according to members of the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Reddit. The spell in question is Misty Step, a short-range teleportation spell, as it lets you overcome many puzzles and dungeon hazards without actually dealing with them. \u201cI have never, in 8 playthroughs, bothered to get to the Adamantine Forge using the levers and platforms,\u201d the OP wrote, \u201cI just Misty Step\/Long Jump from where Nere is, unlock the waypoint, and FT everyone else across. It took me a long time to realize there even was another way.\u201d \u201cI don\u2019t fight the room with the titan steel watcher. I just use someone to hide and jump\/Misty Step to the neurocitor and boom, immediate cut scene,\u201d another user wrote, while one said, \u201cNever used the Shar\u2019s trials properly. Misty step, my dear friend.\u201d Misty Step is so useful that some people don\u2019t even know about different methods. \u201cWait hold up\u2026 there are levers to get to the forge? You don\u2019t have to have misty step..? (I\u2019m on like playthrough 12.)\u201d I even managed to pull this off in my own playthrough. Rather than dealing with the Goblin Camp leadership and acquiring a key to their locked treasure chamber, I simply stealthed past the guards, used Misty Step to get into their treasure room, looted everything, and then fast traveled to safety. These were just a few players who waltzed past the hardest dungeons in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 with a single spell. Dimension Door and Fly are also useful for avoiding playing the game, but you don\u2019t get them until later.
