What are you playing? I finally starting playing Alan Wake 2 and wow I absolutely love it. I think Remedy are the most interesting devs in the AAA space and I am all on board for their connected universe! Also more binding of isaac :p
Jumped into the newest patch and expedition of No Man’s Sky. Always good fun but after finishing the tasks of the expedition I always get bored very quickly. :D
In Baldur’s Gate 3 I’m stuck in a fight against a boss in act 3, always getting absolutely smashed even though I’m highest level and have (I think) decent equipment and spells. Haven’t found any guide that explains a way to deal with the fight in the intended way, everyone just says to cheese the fight which I’d like to honestly avoid. :/
Do you have any more info to provide for that fight without spoilers for others so that I can point you in the right direction? What’s the issue you’re running into in that fight?
It’s the fight against Cazador. I can prevent him from doing anything by using Counterspell pretty easily, but I get swarmed by his minions and I do not have enough damage to kill him in the 3 turn limit anyway so he ascends.
Do you have much crowd control in your party? Can you disable either him or his minions? Pay attention to what he is vulnerable to and what makes him vulnerable when he goes into that other state. Remember that you can inspect any enemy and see their buffs and what type of enemy they are. Perhaps you have special arrows strong against that type. Perhaps you have some spells that do a type of damage that works well against him.

I’ll put it behind spoiler tags:

Finally beat it today after figuring out that one can stop the ritual by pulling Astarion out of his spot with the “Help” action…
Congrats! Yeah, lots of tricky fights in that game are solvable by just observing statuses and such. The game exposes almost 100% of its information.
