BG3 Solo HM: Hook Horrors - No Haste, No Explosions, No damage Taken, No problem (Untouchable)
In this BG3 (Baldurs Gate 3) Solo Honor Mode video I take on Filro and the Hook Horrors. Not the hardest of fights, but the Horrors can be a menace if they get to call for help. I do it Solo on Honor Mode without taking a single point of actual damage, and without using barrelmancy, stealthbugging or any unique consumables like Lump's horn and the like.
The build I am using here is a modified version of my "Untouchable" early game build, which you can find explained here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YsAI31yNJY
Current build is Spore Druid 3/Fighter 1 (archery)/Storm Sorcerer 1
Relevant Illithid powers are:
Favourable beginnings
Ability Drain
Displace
Full list of gear for this fight is:
Haste Helmet
Breastplate +1

Rules for the series:
1: I die if I take real damage (that is not purposefully self-inflicted, like for Loviathar's Blessing) . I am allowed to take temporary HP damage of cause.
2: I play solo, but with campbuffs. Maximum 1 follower IN party (so only 1 concentration spell)
3: No Stealthbugging, Barrelmancy or other automatic win strategies. Copious amounts of lesser cheese are fine though :-)
4: I can do at most 1 rest where I regain resources per major area of the Game (not act). Resting to progress story and such is allowed, but will probably be kept to a minimum too
5: Respeccing is allowed, but not to regain resources. Per fight respecs should be kept to a minimum. I will try to manage with the tools I've got.
