Dark Urge vs Orin Duel, but I think I've over-prepared (Act 3, Honour Mode) | Baldur's Gate 3



The cutscenes ended up being much longer than the fight itself. 😀 I have included them fully, as well as companion reactions (playing the redemption path here). I romanced Karlach in this run. This was the fight I worried the most about in Act 3 due to its impact on the epilogue.

I wish when Orin shapeshifts into you the armour colour and the fact the helmet is hidden were taken into account. Otherwise, it frankly looked a bit goofy and took away from the moment.

Had a bunch of Noblestalk in my pocket, as well as a ton of buffs and two summons. Ended up being rather unnecessary, and it seems Orin got finished off by Cull the Weak illithid power.

I followed this post (not 100%, but mostly) for the Swords Bard/etc. build: https://www.reddit.com/r/BG3Builds/comments/18o6jl1/the_terminator_bard_build/

Killing her in one turn was definitely satisfying after all the trouble she gave me in some of my previous playthroughs.
