Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s honor mode is the ultimate test of skill and luck in Larian Studio\u2019s dynamic CRPG adventure. Since its addition to the game, many players have shared the different ways their honor mode runs have ended\u2014from unfortunate bugs to making one silly mistake while feeding a cat. However, many other fans have pointed to a deliberate change made by Larian that has doomed many runs: Nautiloid restoration pods and how often they can heal. On Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s balanced difficulty, players can use the various Nautiloid restoration pods to fully heal themselves with no limit. Sadly, this is not the case as one BG3 player pointed out on the game\u2019s subreddit. While they \u201cbreezed through to the end of Act 2,\u201d they were blindsided by the change right before the Act\u2019s end boss. \u201cAfter Ketheric retreats into the tower after the first fight there is only one restoration pod that is right before the final boss fight,\u201d they explained. \u201cOn balanced difficulty, you can use these restoration pods as many times as you want, now this piece of information was my downfall. I assumed this would be the case for honor mode as well, how wrong I was.\u201d According to many other players in the comments, the OP was not the only player to make this mistake. \u201cLiterally came to this same realization today. I think I have enough potions and scrolls to squeak it out, but it will be close. Wish me luck,\u201d said one fan. It just goes to show that even if one thinks they know Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 inside and out\u2014honor mode finds a way to humble everyone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Small Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 honor mode change is dooming challenge runs Larian StudiosBaldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans have pointed to one simple change developer Larian Studios made in honor mode that has claimed many challenge runs.
