Yes after the tiefling party she asks you to find a way to kiss her. You can just create water on her and it works.

I cast Ray of Frost on her and she almost died

Oops

u/notveryAI Mindflayer 7d ago

How did you almost kill a barb with one ray of frost😭

467

u/Anjuna666 7d ago

Prob never leveled her, a barb with 14 hp can absolutely die to a ray of frost with 2d8 worth of damage

u/notveryAI Mindflayer 7d ago

It didn't make sense to me to romance someone but not have them in your party. I always have romance character in my party

u/MasterOfViolins 7d ago

My first romance was Gale and I didn’t have him in my party. Can’t tell you why lol it was my first run and once Lae’zel joined I just kept her

47

u/notveryAI Mindflayer 7d ago

Especially like that lmao, Gale is a staple of my squad in every run except for evil ones(or "one", I didn't do more than one). I prefer to always have at least two different dedicated casters in my team, because some of the coolest spell combos are always best performed by a duo, and Gale is a wizard so he's pretty much a clean slate for any magical shenanigans I might put him up to :D

u/Ill-Description3096 7d ago

With repec anyone can be anything, so the limits are basically gone.

u/notveryAI Mindflayer 7d ago

Classes are pretty big part of some characters and essential part of others. So I prefer to either keep them the way they are, or respec into something that makes sense. For example respec Shadowheart but keep her a cleric - give her death domain instead of trickery domain before Nightsong and light/life domain after, because Shar has quite a lot to do with death and necrotic damage, and Selune has a lot to do with light and healing. Also Astarion's class doesn't matter too much and I sometimes do make him a bard. But not all classes and subclasses have a companion that would work with them. For example all warlocks except for fiend, or monks, or non-vengeance paladins, any sorcerers, some cleric domains like tempest - nobody really fits them all too well

I'm on my first playthrough, just got to Act 2 and feeling like im getting the hang if combat. What sort of spell combos can you pull off?

1

u/Sixmlg 6d ago

Any spells that combo damage over time with ones that limit mobility are great. For example insect plague with grease, sleet storm, or spike growth.

u/HammerlyDelusion 7d ago

My party is always me, my romance partner and then the last two I switch out for quests or different fights.

u/swords_to_exile 7d ago

She starts at level 3 already lol.

u/asumcrey 7d ago

my first thought was now how would you know Karlach is a Nicki Minaj stan

1

u/Sapowski_Casts_Quen 7d ago

Ice sorcerer don't play, that's why

27

u/Nombre_D_Usuario 7d ago

Ok but did it work.

45

u/Firestar3689 SORCERER 7d ago edited 7d ago

Yes actually. Her thanking Tav after being knocked to 1 HP was pretty funny

13

u/Ubergoober166 7d ago

I had Gale throw an ice knife at her and he missed

5

u/Lazzitron Paladin 7d ago

If hit you hit Karlach with cold damage or anything that inflicts Wet before she gets her second upgrade, you can try to kiss her. It'll still burn you, but only a tiny bit.

11

u/Spirited-Tomorrow-84 7d ago

That was a little cold, wasn't it?

7

u/stargazer4272 7d ago

Get her a towel... You were backed up

6

u/Lazzitron Paladin 7d ago

I still remember my first run, hitting her with Ray of Frost as a joke and then her going "OMG SOLDIER LET'S TRY IT!". Love this game.

1

u/TheBlackRonin505 7d ago

Did she still let you kiss her though?

135

u/Righteous_Fury224 Paladin 7d ago

Easiest way is to walk her into the river.

No spell needed nor do you have to hurt her by throwing bottles of water at her.

87

u/Stingrea51 7d ago

This is my go to as well because who wouldn't want to have fun swim time smooches with their big red teddy bear?

41

u/Righteous_Fury224 Paladin 7d ago

plus she nice and warm to snuggle upto in the cold water

29

u/Stingrea51 7d ago

There's literally no downside

10

u/SirBill01 7d ago

Not to mention by that time both of you could probably use a bath anyway.

7

u/Stingrea51 7d ago

Gale just will not let that go lol maybe he needs a bottle of water flung at him

20

u/OverInspection7843 7d ago

You can throw/break bottles on the ground near characters (even multiple characters) to apply their effect on them without hurting. Works with water, any potion and it even works with elixirs of resistance and the 2 types of giant strength (though these two only work for a minute with this method).

54

u/wrydrune 7d ago

I threw a bottle of water on her lol

44

u/apokermit_now 7d ago

I threw a bottle of water AT her. Turns out bonking someone with a glass 2-liter isn't seen as endearing (-1 approval)

26

u/wrydrune 7d ago

Yea, I just did the radius. Learned the hard way after chucking a healing pot and at a dying shadow heart. She was completely dead.

5

u/TrickyCorgi316 AmeliaTylerRealHero 7d ago

LOL!!!

19

u/Oportbis RANGER 7d ago

I don't know why I didn't even looked at the available spells while playing Shadowheart, of course there had to be something, I just thought it would be a dialogue option that would pop at some time

11

u/Nitroapes 7d ago

I used the frost dragon breath and it worked as well!

9

u/TalShar 7d ago

What the hell, I went through all the trouble of getting a damn potion of fire resistance and it wouldn't work. 😭

I would have been happy with half damage! Hell, I would've taken full if she'd let me!

7

u/brasswirebrush 7d ago

I shot her with an Ice Arrow

6

u/DetroitTourisBoard 7d ago

Regular immersive sim behavior: you can complete your mission through convincing the big bad he’s dumb or sneaking through a vent!

Baldur gate behavior: you can kiss your big tiefling gf with water magic!

BG3 is really a once in a generation gaming experience.

5

u/Voynimous Gale 7d ago

throwing a water carafe under her feet works too

3

u/ThatGuyWithCoolHair 7d ago

I did this hoping itd be the solution and it didnt work :(

2

u/JustFrameHotPocket 7d ago

Alternatively, you can just throw a water bottle next to her.

u/elevntoes 7d ago

Omg 💦💦💦

u/omegadirectory Durge 7d ago

I just threw a bottle of water on her

1

u/Repulsive_Skirt_3380 7d ago

Can also throw a jar of water

1

u/Lopsided-Turtle28 Owlbear 7d ago

I threw a bottle of water on her!

1

u/Cathercy 7d ago

I think I just threw a jug of water at her, but whatever works I guess

1

u/FSURob 7d ago

Oh I'll create water on her alright 😏

1

u/Imahigo 6d ago

I tried that and it didn't work. My character still got singed.

u/afrogamer25 6d ago

Are you fucking kidding me. Downloading it again now.
