I talked her to death in a similar way in my playthrough, but could not truly understand what made her die. She just started talking about paying back the gold and... bam.
It seems to be some sort of curse inflicted upon her when the shadow falls. She would die when she doubts her need of gold or the ability to get them (like convincing her that she’s about to be promoted elsewhere or fear enough to not get the gold) So I guess she died when she can’t get the gold, literally.
I thought a moment of clarity and guilt made her part with the emotion sustaining her as a spirit: avarice. She wants to release it and give it back. So she finds peace.
HA I did the same thing! I don't know what kind of fuckery I was on, but I killed all of the Thorms without fighting them. And then the devil in the temple. Hehe.
In my playthrough, i just pushed her out of one of the broken walls (which broke half her armor) and just threw javelins at her until the rest of her armor broke and she died. She didn't even fight back, just stood there and let me kill her without even going into combat. But I got the achievement!
If you give her 5000+ gold first, she gives you a unique item (it's not ACTUALLY super useful, but it's unique- it's a scroll of Flesh to Stone, but the stone texture is changed out for gold, and it is labeled something like Baldur's Gate Safe Passage Writ), and she's also WAY heavier so if you still successfully shove her off the ledge she takes like 500+ damage.
They are all easy when you convince them to kill themselves. Almost every boss in Act2, (except Balthazaar maybe) even yes the big bad of act2 can be encouraged to commit suicide.
@@Tay-v6v Yeah, when I realized this was possible while encountering the one scene with the weird surgery people at the house of healing I laughed so hard 😂 Then, I immediately decided to do it as many times as possible. It's hilarious
Oh.. wow.. I've been doing the whole shoot the floating skulls to bring her down to 6hp. Damn.. I didn't know this was an option, because my characters were not Paladins at the time, I'll have to remember that! Also, if you have an assload of gold on you if she attacks, she will hit you for the amount of gold you have as damage, becuase weird DnD mechanics :D
certain classes have it easier than others, but anyone can try to make the DC 18 (21?) checks to explode her. it’s worth attempting even if you probably won’t succeed :)
She was a fun fight; kited her with Asarion out of the toll house, killed the skulls, which broke off all her armor until she was 6hp demon, begging for mercy; and then arrow to the face.
I didn't know you could existential crisis them today. First play through I saw that they were shitting gold with every step and murdered everything within two stories of that building just to be thorough. Hell I didn't even know you could TALK to it.
my friend spent the game up to this point just hoarding and stealing gold everywhere..and got completely annihilated. Probably the funniest thing to happen of any game I've played in a while
@@remconoordermeer7015 I tried it out today, she did nothing except letting you pass. Unless there is a special item or trigger needed its not worth the gold.
@smol_pupper123 Ah thank god, I was worrying for the poor player’s sanity for a moment there. Although… I’ve encountered quite a lot of rather interesting folks in the comment threads of this game… heheh.
@@remconoordermeer7015 No, you just ask how much gold she needs, and she says all of it, you give her all your gold and get a signed trade visa which you can use for 3 casts of flesh to gold.
I kinda feel bad for killing the gold lady, Beer Man, Yurgir and that Ogre in moonrise bantering with the soldiers in the sleeping quarters the way i did. They way they died singed a bit of pity out of me
I just talked them with my surprisingly low charisma barb. 😅 Shar has some nice curves, but I ain't simp. There's a song I like to relate to when I do, and it's Gorillaz - Souk Eye.
According to a lot of people on tiktok this was a very easily missable encounter so at least it isn't anything major. I try not to upload anything from the main story
I beat a playthrough and didn't rush things, and I completely missed this. Have not met this creature. Definitely gonna look out for it now! @@ballooned
@@kaydee66781 Yeah, from what I've read as well, there is A LOT of cut content, a fair number of them being from act 3. And honestly, I would not mind if they add said cut content due time restriction as a DLC.
@@Fabio-ql5yf Yes. My love for the game was almost crushed by how awful, laggy, and momentum-killing act 3 was. It has its high points, like fighting against a shapeshifter and a rematch with an act 1 villain, but overall it just doesn't feel good.
My biggest gripe with BG3 is how none of the classes and some reaces don't feel *that* unique. I could be buggin' though. For example: Monks aren't much of a big deal, they literally got wiped out like the Airbenders by the Gith in Lathandar's monastery. And you do get some cool dialogue options too but that's about it.

like bethesda
I think she dies if she ever gives gold back.
Pathetic
I just found out you can switch characters while having a conversation
Time to take this new found knowledge into a new campaign 😎
How??
I've been reloading saves for absolutely no reason then
HOW

I convinced her that I was sent to take her Job and she exploded, 11/10 would do again
I told her the same thing, but also that she was promoted and reassigned to another location.
For me I told her she could keep all the gold for herself, and she still explodes

It may have been a curse of avarice where she needs the gold to stay alive.
Nothing actually, she wasnt living - a cursed ghost/soul/shadow that runs off an insourmantable greed that she possesed when was alive

Nobody else gonna discuss the minecraft eating sound lmao. It brought me great joy lmao
Wait so you're telling me I COULD OF SWAPPED CHARACTERS MID SENTENCE THIS ENTIRE TIME
This also works if you plan to take aunt Ethel's hair and still kill her. Or get Harleep info and his looy
no, you could have swapped characters mid sentence
0:15 I love how both the player character and Shadowheart have identical facial expressions here 😂
Why does she remind me of Goldmember from Austin Powers lol “I love Goooooooold”
😂🤣
I just binged all of your videos and it convinced me to buy this game 😂
You will not regret it 😊
I know she's the easiest boss but love fighting her for the gold lol

Baldur's gate 3 moral: When in doubt, use Astarion to steal everything you can.
Love that even after my 110hr playthrough I have no idea what the context here is.

My favorite one is having Mattis flip a coin a thousand times.
Imagine my surprise last week when I did this by accident
i just turned her into a sheep and she lost her armor. At this point she was just onehit
Being able to kill all of Ketheric's family by talking to them satisfies me in a way few things can.

8 reload she never stood in front of the mirror.
Smough looks kind of different in this game
Fuck i never seen this character 😭😭
Daawww, she exploded when she did the right thing.
Such a kind, charitable undead abomination. Her dad would be proud
Hehe Goldmember :)
Why smough's mom eating gold?
Did I just hear the minecraft eating sound effect...?
I basically did the same but as a cleric, weird but cool experience
They missed a chance to put the fart vine sound in here when she gives up the ghost.
Apparently she is not demanding all your gold but stop at 6001..
Rumots say you can even learn a spell from her.
Why am I not surprised that somebody somewhere actually put in the time to feed her 6001 times…

So she just almost ends up killing herself lol.
