Baldur’s Gate 3 players share their “dumbest” Honor Mode deaths
Larian StudiosBaldur’s Gate 3 players have taken to social media to share their “dumbest” deaths in the notoriously difficult Honor Mode.
Especially for those new to CRPGs or even the world of D&D, Baldur’s Gate 3 can provide a steep challenge even on its standard difficulty setting.
However, many veteran fans have been put to the test by the game’s Honor Mode difficulty, which was introduced in Patch 5.
Now, players have taken to social media to share some of the absolute “dumbest” ways they’ve ended their Honor Mode runs in Baldur’s Gate 3.
Baldur’s Gate 3 fans share “dumb” Honor Mode run deaths
A post on the Baldur’s Gate 3 subreddit kicked off the discussion, as a user named Somethingclever451 said, “Throwing my hat in for the dumbest Honor Mode death.”
They explained that they were still in Act 1 and had just hit level 3 when they went to explore Wither’s tomb and fight the grave robbers.
“I deal with the grave robbers and as I’m about to enter I see a stone hanging from the crane. I figured I might be able to save myself some fall damage so I go to shoot it down.”
Unfortunately, that idea came back to bite them, as their character decided to shoot the hanging rock from below, crushing the entire party and ending the run.
Another fan ended up dying in a romance scene of all things. “Lae’zel killed me into game over in her romance duel scene…” During the duel, their character was hit by a critical with added Smite, killing them and ending the run.
Another player lost their run in the Githyanki Creche in spectacular fashion. “We got all the way through the creche, last boss and everything. Pulled a thing out of the thing, cataclysm, click off turn-based mode without thinking, turn timer until devastation just lets it rip, you died.”
While many of these Honor Mode runs ended in hilarious fashion, nothing stings quite like losing dozens of hours to a silly mistake.
