Despite its longevity, Baldur’s Gate 3 still displays a number of glitches and exploitable bugs. THE recent patch 7 aimed to eliminate these problems which polluted the gaming experience, and the developers pulled out all the stops for all the fixes. So here is 10 ways to cheat that have just been abolished in the game !
1 – The Blood of Lathander dominated by your dark impulses…
Some clever people used the item Blood of Lathander to save in the extremes the companions lost through the fault of Dark Impulses. Since the implementation of patch 7, this will no longer be allowed because these rescues directly contravene the gameplay of Dark Urges.
2 – It’s locked, we tell you!
Some locked chests and containers were bugged before patch 7. Players could use them as if the boxes were unlocked, and without using a lockpicking skill. All that is in the past: you will have to use normal methods to pocket the treasures!
3 – Immortal Bears
Before patch 7, Druids could take advantage of Bear Form to access a very special glitch. As a Bear, their life gauge could drop to zero without causing death! Also, druids could technically advance in the game without fear of dying. The glitch has therefore been duly corrected.
4 – Tower of Ramazith, forever riddled with traps
This area has been intentionally packed with traps by Larian. Except that some players used the search feature to bypass all the trials of the location and leave with the loot. From now on, the traps will have to be tackled “the hard way”.
5 – A nerf for the Sorcerer!
This change is literally a nerf rather than a glitch fix, but Larian included it in the bug fixes section… The studio has greatly limited the potential of matchmaking Metamagicto avoid giving rise to overly powerful spells.
6 – Ghost walls
Before patch 7, attacking a destructible wall could cause your character to move through it. This obviously added a stealth ability to your group that was not wanted by Larian! Now, destructible walls must be destroyed normally if you plan to cross them.
7 – No cheaters at Cazador Szarr
A bug previously made it possible to gain several bonus actions per turn by exploiting the pentagram. Since patch 7, this is no longer possible and the fight against Astarion’s great enemy has once again become difficult for everyone!
8 – Viconia DeVir, flawless
By adopting a certain form, Shadowheart could block techniques from Viconia DeVir. The bug was also fixed with patch 7.
9 – The Tiefflins remain in the dungeon
In Highmoon Tower, you can rescue a group of imprisoned Tiefflins. But some players realized that a bug caused them to get out of prison simply by leaving the area, at certain points in the adventure. Patch 7 ensured that this glitch is now history.
10 – So that the test remains a test
Before the deployment of patch 7, a glitch allowed you to skip a Leap of Faith trial puzzle by simply clicking on the final platform in the Shar Temple of Trials. Practical ! Except that from Larian’s point of view, this is obviously not how the riddle should be resolved.
