Heavy usage of Traps by a solo Bounty Hunter on LoB

Yigor

I started to test a half-orc Bounty Hunter in BG1 (LoB from scratch). It requires a really heavy usage of traps! 🪤

Tactics: Install 2 traps (normal and special) + Sleep + Install 2 traps + Sleep + Install 2 traps + Sleep + Install 2 traps (up to 7 traps per area). Then go to search monsters and attract them into your traps. It kills weak and (with a bit of luck) some intermediate monsters like Ogres. 💀

Well, of course, usually it doesn't go so smoothly, some traps explode and monsters appear during the rest, but it's playable (some patience is still needed). 😉

Current status: chapter 2, Bounty Hunter of level 4 in Nashkel. 😎

It's funnier to play it in the IWD on HoF, where a Bounty Hunter can quickly progress to level 11 with 3 reinforced special traps per day. 👈

Sounds challenging!

Yeah, a solo thief on HoF or LoB is clearly challenging. Tons of traps seem to be the unique tactical solution in the beginning. 😉
