Nice use of the invis potions here. I've never done this fight after the prison break, so it's an interesting change to the dynamic to have all the former prisoners there as well. Sure would be nice if Isobel had even a shred of self-preservation.
at least Marcus started the whole fight with two consecutive critical misses at Isobel. imagine he had been successful in knocking her out before doing his vampiric shout?
6:02 - mad respect for Art Cullough: half-dead, half-comatose from 100 years in the Shadow Curse and bro is INSTANTLY ready to throw hands with the forces of evil. Them back-in-the-day Flaming Fists were built different 😅 and holy shit, I have NEVER seen the Harpers AND the Ironhands fight so effectively. Even more holy shit NIMBLE at the end there with the clutch move!!! :D
I suspect he is no longer half-dead and comatose as they managed to make him well enough to reveal useful information about Thaniel and already safely returned Thaniel.
@embreis2257 minor immediately-post-Myrkul spoiler - if you talk to Art when you get back to the surface, there's a dialogue option to try and recruit him as a companion. He responds that the Curse broke something in him and he's dying so there'd be no point but he's happy about the Thaniel thing at least.
@@Drakkman1978 is there no better way to protect her? invisibility potions too won't do much good beyond the initial turn as she will continue playing an active part during the fight.
3:39 sorry, more n00b questions: your Mol did get abducted too, right? there is no way to prevent that or is there? also, it looks like you started the fight with boots purchased from Mattis. I have yet to find Mattis again or any of the other kids (except Arabella and Thaniel, they are both at my camp) from the grove. I am still looking for Ravengard, Zevlor and the Nightsong, presumably also for Mol (but nobody tasked me with finding her so far) and I haven't seen or heard from Rolan and his gang but discovered them at the inn here in this clip. I freed Wulbren and the Ironhand gnomes plus some tieflings from the dungeons. my character is pondering how to proceed further. all Thorms except for Ketheric have been dealt with and Yurgir killed himself and popped up at Raphael's. something puzzles me as I don't understand what's going on: Ketheric is invulnerable atm because the Nightsong is either imprisoned by him or somehow under his control yet his right hand and general Balthazar wants me to find the relic (the Nightsong) for his master Ketheric. that doesn't make sense. Ketheric can't both be looking for the Nightsong and enjoy invulnerability from controlling it, right? either I explore more of the Sharran temple or start some kind of murder rampage on the upper floors of Moonrise towers. so far I avoided triggering a dialogue scene with Ketheric but managed to get passed him (he is interrogating Fezzerk and I expect this goblin rattles me out to save his sorry hide) and had a chat with Radija. the dream visitor wants me to open that big double door. there are other red doors on this floor looking very interesting... so what to do first? 🤔
I don't think you can save Mol from being abducted here. At least I have never heard of it being doable. Yes, it is the boots from Mattis. Everything that you mentioned doing is worth doing. I'd just save the big double door for the very last thing you do! Also make sure you have wrapped up everything you want to do in Act 1 before you jump into a pool :)
@@FriendlyLich isn't it a bit late to worry about loose ends in act #1? you mean act #2, right? pool? went down from the dungeons to examine this mucus but couldn't get to the wandering bugbear. I assume the 'pool' is the alternative entrance to get to that part of the mucus? any hint regarding Balthazar and the conflicting info about the Nightsong? I just opened the door to his part of the 1st floor at Moonrise and it's a grizzly sight. 😱
@embreis2257 Oh you can go back to Act 1 and do stuff that you missed (that isn't time based like the burning building / goblin attack and such). The pool is at the end of Shar's gauntlet, right next to a way point. You'll get a confirm if you want to proceed if you press it. So, since Balthazaar and Ketheric put Nightsong where Nightsong is, I assume smoething have happened that cut them off or something. Been awhile since I did the quest's properly so I'm not 100% sure.
@@FriendlyLich thx. have my work cut out. sorry, can't watch your newest video as it will provide too many spoilers for me. will watch it once I'm passed all that. have a nice weekend.
3:02 I see you now have Dammon's scimitar equipped. it does additional poison damage when you concentrate but you still wear the amulet for poison damage. did you decide what to make of the second mithril ore? did you consider making the _adamantine scimitar_ ? it would ignore slashing resistance and always hit critical.
I'm under the impression that it should be two poison sources but I have not confirmed it. I should probably do that though! I'm considering grabbing the heavy armour for Myrkul but have not yet made anything. I thought it would only do crits on objects? I haven't looked at the weapons though so I don't know that either
@@FriendlyLich sorry, Myrkul is still unknown to me. also, two poison sources for what? you are right about the hitting critical. it only applies to objects.
@@FriendlyLich two poison sources being added up? interesting thought. you have far more experience with this game than me but I would not expect it to work that way given what I've seen of the mechanics up to this point.
Great use of invis. I think you did the same with Kithari and Isobel actually stayed invisible if I remember correctly! (I could go check the vid but I'm a lazy b*tch.) I really love Shadow Step, too. It is SOOOOOO fun in Act 3 because of the shadows from the buildings omg!!!!!!!!!!!!
dumb question: how can you postpone this fight until after rescuing the gnomes (and all the other characters you have at the inn who I haven't seen in a while on my journey)?
The fight gets triggered once you go to the 2nd floor and talk to Isobel. Even tho the game tells you to immediately go to her for her blessing as you arrive at the Last Light Inn, you don’t actually have to do it right away. Instead you can go to the entrance where Jaheira stops you for investigation (the Bridge), where you can see a couple of Harper’s wanting to ambush Kar’niss, just go with them and ambush the Drider to get his moon lantern and progress into the Moonrise towers
Exactly what was explained here, skip Isobel and walk to Kar'niss. I did not try it out but Shadowheart _might_ be immune to the darker parts as well. I forgot to try and I haven't checked the wiki.
@@ligma7680 my limited experience went different. when I first arrived at the inn I already encountered Kar'niss on the road and helped the ambushing harpers to dispatch him. I didn't keep the lamp or better surrendered it to the harpers. therefore, I needed the lamp back to do anything else. I arrived at the inn, met Jaheira, had to convince her I was one of the good guys as her own harpers telling her of my help with the drider wasn't enough. so I thought I needed the blessing before first venturing out there again.
@ hm, I’ve never seen anyone first take care of the Drider and then go to Last Light Inn, you should never surrend the lamp to the Harper’s tho since they’re pretty insistent on you keeping it. Maybe try to enter Act 2 thru the Grimforge entrance and then go straight to the camp and follow the steps I described before? Anyway you don’t really need Isobels blessing to venture into the shadowlands, the lamp will negate any effects of it and light can virtually do the same thing as her blessing (besides the necrotic resistance)
Throwing is always so awkward. I tried to do the throwing build with Karlach and after like two combats gave up on the entire idea. I don't understand why it's so wonky!

The Harpers really pulled their weight - as did Nimble. Who would’ve thought it’s the gnome who jumps up and saves Isobel? lol
Haha yeah, quite spectacular! 🤣
holy shit nimble living up to her name, who knew she had mad hops like that
and ive never seen the harpers be so useful lmao
The Harpers brought their A-game today 🫶. Usually they just get paralyzed
that clutch at the end holy moly
Hell yea. Not sure if I could had made it 😅
Nice use of the invis potions here. I've never done this fight after the prison break, so it's an interesting change to the dynamic to have all the former prisoners there as well. Sure would be nice if Isobel had even a shred of self-preservation.
I swear Isobel is coded to prioritize provoking attacks of opportunity
It was quite smooth beside Isobel and Lea getting paralyzed! Will have to do it like this again
@@kevinmertel6108 I agree. With decent turn order maybe it's worth provoking those attacks so she can wander off
at least Marcus started the whole fight with two consecutive critical misses at Isobel. imagine he had been successful in knocking her out before doing his vampiric shout?
@ That would had been awkward as hell 🤣
6:02 - mad respect for Art Cullough: half-dead, half-comatose from 100 years in the Shadow Curse and bro is INSTANTLY ready to throw hands with the forces of evil.

I guess Art were really motivated to get out of bed haha! :D
Nimble MVP \o/

Ironhands coming in clutch. I think this is the best I have ever seen the Harpers do in any play through I've seen.
I was thinking that it went surprisingly easy 😅
omg nimble at the end 😂
MVP
That fight is the worst part of honor mode. Things can go terribly wrong 😂
Well done mate
It can go really wrong yeah, those paralyzing claws 😅. Don’t think I ever had such a smooth fight here before
@ i tried spamming sanctuary on isobel. But she always think shes a frontliner 😂
@ Haha yeah somehow she decided that’s what her role is
@@Drakkman1978 is there no better way to protect her? invisibility potions too won't do much good beyond the initial turn as she will continue playing an active part during the fight.
@embreis2257 maybe throw a hammer in her face with nonlethal.. and then cast sanctuary.. i havent tested it. But think she might be pissed by that 😂
MVP Nimble
Very much so!

Oh yes :)
Do you know what the background music is called that played during the fight? I keep searching for it but seemingly can’t find it
I'm not sure, I do recognize it so it might be in the OST that comes with the game.
