Baldur’s Gate 3 Player Reveals Why He Never Uses Karlach

Baldur’s Gate 3 has a good number of companions and each one has a distinct personality. This also goes for a much-loved companion known as Karlach. However, one player provided a reason why he never uses it.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is a game that focuses more on the journey than the destination. You will meet several companions, each with a different view of the world.

This is also the case for Karlach, who is one of the most popular companions in the game. However, one player has encountered an incident that prevented him from using it in his future expeditions.

Baldur’s Gate 3 Players Explain Why They Abandoned Karlach After Over 100 Hours

Discussion on this topic was started by Reddit user u/zsdr56bh: “When I found Karlach and she joined me, she wanted to fight some people up the hill, that was good and I took her to fight them. After the battle, Karlach was running around attacking inanimate objects and it was mentioned that she must keep attacking or she will lose her class mechanic.

He continued, “so in my head I was like, wow, this class mechanic seems way too intense. No way am I constantly worrying about hitting things even out of combat.’ and I traded her. I played the game several times ignoring the Barbarian class because of this, never realizing that it was just a specific moment for her.

Other players joined the conversation. They claimed to have had similar experiences with Karlach. One user mentioned: “After a tough fight against these false paladins, Karlach set the building on fire and killed my Tav. It must be his way of thanking me I guess.”

Another user added, “You missed the conflict between Gortash and Karlach,”followed by another player saying, “I accidentally killed Gortash without her.”I will never forget his disappointment. The dubbing actress was so good.”

Finally, a community member commented: “I never took Karlach out of my group. The frenzied barbarian can throw or throw one enemy at another as a bonus action (or make any attack), I highly recommend.”

It seems that most players had very similar experiences with Karlach in Baldur’s Gate 3. However, that is part of its charm. They love how passionate she is about both the player character and her class.
