      its the most evil ending because you kill karlach but the insidious evilness of it comes from the fact that TO HAVE Karlach at the end, you had to take the good route (not goblins etc), AND upgrade her to keep her alive, then to end it. So you have to do a good playthrough, only to choose evil at the very end.

    I chose to be a dragonborn monk in my first playthrough of bg3 and man the mindflayer choice was tough. Ultimately i chose it because it made the most sense for my character's morals. I like to think that despite becoming a mindflayer, he retained himself due to his strong connection to his soul and is currently chilling with omeluum and blurg in the underdark.

I sent Lazel to kill the bitch godess and had The comet prince become the mindflayer. The game is so good with the special dialog options depending on what race and class you play.

    I romance Lae'zel as a human, and disappointed that I can't fight Vlaakith together with Lae'zel. There's only two options, Lae'zel leave to join Orpheus or stay in Baldur's Gate with me. I like the second options, but I think it will be a more great ending if I can fight side by side with my Githyanki partner. It's more fitting to my character and Lae'zel too. Nonetheless this is a great game anyway.

    Okay, if they were willing to accept a Mindflayer as an ally, it’s ridiculous my Dwarf couldn’t go with Lae’zel to help her since we were a couple and it was obvious the Gith rebels had no issues with working with non-gith. I hope Larian listens to feedback and changes this. As such, I had to ask Lae’zel to stay with me, as I didn’t want to break her heart, but she was happy and ready to face any threats Vlaakith sent our way. But sad because Orpheus takes his life (didn’t want Karlach to turn as one does truly die for good from the transition, a mindflayer is merely copying the previous person’s personality) and he assumes the gith are doomed, which come on, those other rebels could potentially win. Wyll went with Karlach to Avernus and at Level 12 (really, they have so much extra EXP, they’re more at level 14), they’re going to handle themselves just fine down there.

    2. A githianki route, where you or kill Orpheus for Vlaakith or sacrifice yourself and become illithid for your people

      The way to have nobody become illithid and save Orpheus is to have Gale blow up the netherbrain. So someone major dies or becomes illithid no matter what.

    Strange that Orpheus would be able to ride a red dragon, that deal was made with Tiamat by Vlaakith. Indont think just any githyanki can mount a dragon without permission and Orpheus isn't technically githyanki either as he is pre githzerai and githyanki, he is simply gith.
    Edit: I looked into it a bit more after typing this, and it's possible that gith was in some sensebthe first githyanki which would make her son githyanki as well, though it is still unclear whether he wpuld be included in the deal with tiamat consider it was likely made with Vlaakith(the first), who Orpheus defied immediately after making the deal.

Its so wired... yeah..we spend a long time together and go through hell together and all shit and then its just like "oh well. End now". Not even a real goodbye. Most of the endings half of Camp isnt even there. I wish there was one ending where you have a proper goodbye to all Companions. Its same with the "kill yourself" Ending.. they are just standing there and one say "oh no...dont..." as if it means nothing to them. Feels just wired. Same for Durge when refuse Bhaal. No reaction at all. Not even from your Romance. Sometimes the game give you the feeling they really care for each other aspacilly when they come to know each other better..and then there are scenes like this.. left me feeling they are like strangers to each other.

      I believe I got that one in Act 3 from the wizard hunting down the Nightsong

      Yep, it’s the Markoheshkir from the sorcerous sundries tower, you gotta fly down to the lower levels, push the button where it says “bottom” to get to the very bottom, then pass an arcana check to remove the barrier that is protecting the staff.

    I think it´s super dumb that you can only join them if you play as Gith. You can even join them being a Ghaik (Ex-Gith)? Pfft. I romanced Lae´zel (not being Gith) and couldn´t join. Normally I would absolutely do so, hello? Makes no sense. Lae´zel overturned so many prejudices regarding other species...but I can´t join her in their fight? Lame.

      I mean it does suck, but I like how there’s a unique ending option for the race. I’d love to see unique endings for all races, even if it’s just a little different.

      @@amethyeet Yes I agree. Little differences, absolutely. Love that about the game, in most parts it is very thoughtful about that . But that one here just doesn´t make any sense. i hope the´ll give other options in a future patch.

      To top it off, after watching the love of your life ride off on her shiney new dragon, the narrator lays out your options. You can choose to either continue living, eating brains as you slowly lose your identity, or you can end yourself. I chose the later. Then there's the cut scene where withers reminds everyone that ilithids have no soul, so my Tav didn't even "go to a better place". She just ceased to exist. Most brutal ending ever. lol
