Olive quickly flicks through her options in a panic as the Gnolls descend on her.
She has Shocking Grasp, an attack that will only work when the Gnolls are already in face-eating range.
Olive will get no second chances.
Olive will get no respawns.
Not only that, but enemies are buffed and bosses in particular get horrifying new powers.
It’s the sort of thing you should tackle with a well-optimised hero, if at all.
What did it matter?
This character was surely doomed anyway.
Having never played BG3 before, her child “Olive” was hardly a consequence of metagaming.
It was also decided that Olive was a kind, gentle character, so offensive spells were minimised.
This was about to get ugly.
Then she made it to the Druid Grove.
Then she was ingratiating herself at the goblin camp.
That meant no siding with villains and no rampant theft from shopkeepers.
Still, Olive couldn’t be entirely naive if she was going to make it in this tough world.
God knowssomehigher power had to be looking out for her if she’d made it that far.
