You can also get +1 CHA from the Mirror of Loss (Patriar's Memory) meaning you can get a permanent +3. To get it, pass the Arcana check before offering a prayer. You'll have to give up a memory to sacrifice 2 to a stat (which can be immediately remedied with Remove Curse) and hope you get the random memory of the patriar that was usurped by Gortash. The other random memories don't add anything. This can be acquired on as many characters as you want, although there's probably going to be a lot of save scumming involved.

2:53 I legit love the guy who did the voice acting for the Monk amulet. I wear it just to hear him occasionally just bust out a laugh...catches me every time. HAHAHAH OOoooOooOO HAHAHAH!!! Also the fact its SO tragic and yet all he can do is laugh about it.
My guess? Ladder. You climb long ladder to get in the room with guards, so he doesn't appear next to you, the game sometimes breaks the party interactions based on distance so you are treated separately. Level design flaw, it happens.
The explosive blood is not Astarian only, it depends who you let her experiment with whose blood in act 2. She does Astarian and the experiment separately.
You can sacrifice Forbidden Knowledge to the mirror to bypass sacrificing skill points. If you're a Rogue, I believe, you can offer it a false memory instead of a true one, also bypassing losing two points. It's a chunky skill check, but you can definitely do it!
Just a tip your statue will look like your current load out so if you like The look of certain armor and weapons put that on and in equip what u don’t want on the statue or do what I do and have a naked statue of yourself with only a cape
I sacrificed "Forbidden Knowledge" to the Mirror of Loss, but the skill buff never went away, nor did the spells, of course. Maybe it was a bug, but I got a +2 Intelligence boost to my Wizard for free. I didn't even think to have some of my companions use the mirror. Duh.
If you have a character with any fire resistance + one of the armors that decrease all damage taken by 2, you are immune to the fire surface allowing for the explosion, but I am not entirely sure if you're immune to the explosion itself. I didn't go through with the experiment at moonrise so I don't think I can get it in my current playthrough.
It is true.. dont know if it a bug But yarh.. take a armor that give fire resistance + decrease all damage taken by 2. However if u drink the mysterious potion u will get a buff as what u said. U can then remove the armor and the champ still got it without problem.. I’m using that guy to run all over the traps 😂 zero dmg
@@LukeCanWin you have to get the +1 charisma BEFORE you get the +2 to any stat, else you can't talk to the mirror anymore. And you shouldn't sacrifice the Forbidden Knowledge, since that's a perm buff and all the -2 stat debuffs can be cleared with remove curse (or long rest).
I was going to buy the statue just as a vain fantasy but was a bit short on coin so gave it up. But now that I know there’s a permanent buff I’m sore sure getting it.
Why do you sacrifice your permanent buff to be able to speak to dead and +1 to wisdom checks and saving throws. Also these are not all, you missed patriars memory (+1 to charisma) , anointed in splendor (+2 to saving throws) and you can get Bless till long rest for everyone until long rest by donating to the temple southwest in the lower city.
@@LukeCanWinbut you know that if you just select a random stat you can just use remove curse to get rid of the effect right? Giving you a plus 2 instead of plus 1 to a chosen stat
Does the Codex blessing for temp HP after a long rest go away if you choose to give up the knowledge from the Necromancy of Thay to the Mirror of Loss?
i wish every race , especially dragonborn, got some unique perma buffs. like if dragonborns could take the form of a dragon or some weaker dragon once consuming some ancient knowlage, that would be sick. was shown that the emperors friend ansur was once a dragonborn, and then transformed into a massive dragon
It's actually the other way around, Ansur was a massive dragon, he just transformed into a Dragonborn for the convenience of being able to walk around.
Some bugs regarding explosive blood as in certain instances Araj responds as if she actually gives you the potion, but never really does . . . so you cannot drink or nor progress the quest.
its from a class mod on the PC version called Artificer. I have a video of it on my channel if you want to check it out. Its part of the armorer subclass
I learned that the spell that locks stuff is basically useless I used it in the granny Ethel fight on the stairs and she completely ignored it and just unlocked it and left I was like…..
It was really akward when the monk was in his descendants corpse who was supposed to be a woman but instead looked like burnt man meat I was…. Confused
@@LukeCanWinit was perfect before they started nerfing it. I can tolerate less ghouls, but taking away my control over them, even turning them off is just worthless.

Fun Fact, you could also use the Knock spell to open the Elminster Vault, if you don't want to go through the rooms.
People sleep on knock lol.
FYI to get in cazadors, if you use astarian to talk to the first guards, no need for persuasion or deception, they recognize him and let him pass
thanks for the heads up usually my companions will step in and say somethin wonder why he didnt here

You won't be gifted anything if you use deception.
@@LiamFarleyMA I don't remember gaining anything, but you don't lose anything.
@@Lyonfaced yeah so there's no real point hahaha
or just use remove curse after it
@@iamerror1699 is it not a permanent stat loss?
May be a bug, but Tharchiate blessing has lasted (reapplied) past several long rests for my character. Thanks for the guide!
Not a bug, that's literally how it's supposed to work- every time after a long rest you get free 20 temporary hit points.
@@IndependentObserver Sweet, thanks for the info. That's what I thought initially, but I wasn't sure after hearing the way it was described here.
Yeah, it's a permanent False Life buff.
maybe you need to carry the book with you, I don't know but it is very permanent!
Just watched all 3 of these and saw the other videos you have. Subscribed as I'm sure I'll be referencing your stuff a lot for my second playthrough
Thank you!
Always quality, quality, quality content with you.
Will you be playing/making guides for Lords of the Fallen?
yessir

haha good point
Greco-Roman sculptors be like:
Also the part morph auto fills ring 1 and fly so if you save up you can get more total powers

You can also get +1 charisma from the Mirror. It's pure RNG event.
hmm thats weird

I might’ve messed up cause I think I put the necklace on Halsin randomly so he might be the one getting the laughter spell
Unstable blood is not just astarian, I have it on my main custom character. Any character that donates twice gets it.
Heheheheh I’ve been waiting for this. Finally. My bard-adin’s journey is laid before him. None may witness my ascension into demigodhood 😈
haha enjoy your demigodhood

Danse Macabre has a secret interaction with a Necromancer Wizard. You can summon one more lmao.
IF you are partial illithd you can avoid unlocking the door. Just fly down from where Lorrikan is.
Thank you!
Praying to Umberlee in her temple only cost 5 g per companion to have bless till long rest

And I believe that is too much.
@@iamerror1699 it's to much for a level 12 character.
Wow when i saw your character inventory full of shit i went "yeah , same "
lmao
If you give up the forbidden knowlege, do you lose the +1 wisdom to saves/checks and the Dance Macabre spell?
Some bugs regarding explosive blood as in certain instances Araj responds as if she actually gives you the potion, but never really does . . . so you cannot drink or nor progress the quest.
If she didn’t give it to you, u can steal it from her. I did that.
i dont have arcana check available with mirror any ideas? I can only select Religion offer a prayer to the mirror and i cannot get buff
Do you get anything for giving things to the gods ( in temple, where you can get deva mace)
I hear you can get a +2 buff, but I think you need to donate stuff that’s relevant to the god in question
How are you hands glowing it looks cool

I was like, why would you do this out of order, then I read the title and felt stupid lol
Idk if the statue give buff, otherwise i would choose a statue with clothes on
blood buff can be anyone who gave her blood
I think only 1 time but I gave her blood from all 4 toons and used Lezeil to get the buff in act 3
No Loviatars Love?
thats act 1 isnt it
Ascended vampire is for Astarion only correct?
yup just Astarion
Isn’t Tharchiate Vigor reapplied every long rest?
yup
act 3 sidequest full walkthrough please
its just about finished will be coming out soonish
It was really akward when the monk was in his descendants corpse who was supposed to be a woman but instead looked like burnt man meat I was…. Confused
I wish they didn’t tame away the control over dance macabre ghouls. The spell is useless now
yeah its very buggy and weird it needs like a complete redesign to be honest
