A player completes Baldur’s Gate 3 using a simple torch

Baldur’s Gate 3 fans are left stunned after a player shared how he beat the entire game using only a torch as a weapon.

Baldur’s Gate 3 was one of the most important games of 2023, winning the Game of the Year award and continuing to grow its already massive and dedicated community.

What makes Baldur’s Gate 3 so replayable is the opportunity for creativity and freedom throughout the game. Players can go through the story over and over again, changing their class, in-game choices, and more in an effort to completely alter their gaming experience.

The YouTube video, which runs a total of 13 minutes, details how Baldur’s Gate 3 fans can complete the entire game using nothing more than their trusty torch and a few special consumables and upgrades.

The BG3 content creator explained at the start of the video, “For today’s BG3 guide, we have another fun and unique build. One that simply involves hitting enemies over the head with Torch weapons.”

“While more like tools than weapons, torches can be surprisingly strong, with the damage equivalent of a longsword that’s also always on fire for even more power.”

Fans quickly flooded the comments section of the YouTube video, sharing their praise for cRPG Bro and this unique build. One YouTube user commented, “I’ll have to try this, it’s hilarious, great video!”

Another added, “Who would win? Ancient undead dragon or some asshole with a hot stick.”
