A hidden boss in the first act of Baldur’s Gate 3 looks inconspicuous

earthpressnews

Many bosses in Baldur’s Gate 3 have a mighty and impressive charisma that indicate their status as powerful opponents. In the first act of the game, however, there is a being that looks absolutely harmless, but can be stronger than the real boss of the area.

What opponent is we talking about? It is about the confused frog in the swamp area of ​​the first act that hops around the Vettel house. It is not directly an enemy creature, but suffers from permanent pain due to a curse. These confuse the little swamp dweller so much that he attacks you if you don’t leave him alone.

However, one should rather think twice whether you want to put on the inconspicuous guy. According to the experiences of other players, the frog destroyed entire teams and ruined Honor-Runs.

What can the confused frog? Although it has only 12 HP, the frog has a armor class of 31 due to several bonuses and the magic “mirror picture” and is therefore not easy to hit.

He has the ability to “reflect”, which means that the first projectile that is located to him is thrown back onto the attacker. After an attack, the mucus disappears, which, however, regrets every round.

He also hurls a toxic substance to several opponents, which not only distributes 3W8 + 5 poison damage, but also poisoned all targets.

Above all, a sub -level team who wants to look around a little in the swamp and wanted to get involved in a nice conversation with a pink, “harmless” frog can get into trouble here. Many players report in the comments of a YouTube video that this frog cost them the Honor Run.

How should you deal with the frog? Anyone who can speak to animals learn about the pain of the frog. The swamp area’s Vettel is responsible for this. If you then let the frog in peace and come back when you have defeated the Vettel, it is very grateful to you and leads you to a small, hidden treasure.

However, if you are not a friend of the frog or have already forged revenge plans through him, you can also attack him. With his 12 HP, he doesn’t endure much, which is why you best do it with a surprise attack before making himself stronger with his mirror images.

How does the community find the frog? The comments below the YouTube video linked above for confused frog speak for themselves:
