Baldur's Gate 3 Player Finds Way To Cheese Honour Mode

thegamer.com:

Baldur's Gate 3 recently added a new difficulty called Honour Mode, which is basically an amped-up Tacticain that makes death permanent. You can't roll back saves, so you have to go with the punches. Only 0.1 percent of people have managed to conquer it so far, but one player has found a cheesy strategy to make it a bit easier.

"Is everyone else cheating at Honour Mode?" jcarney231 asked on the game's subreddit. "I've seen a few threads with the wild ways people died in Honour Mode and was wondering if I'm the only one cheating? I've been adventuring with three party members and leaving the fourth in a safe location. If the other three wipe, you just rez them back at camp. I keep going back and forth between a max persuasion character who just stands next to a shop NPC and a druid who only knows Goodberry."

It's deceptively simple. If you have a fourth party member far away, out of danger, then you can't die. If everyone kicks the bucket, you can just bring them back, avoiding the permanent nature Honour Mode brings to death. The only downside is that it means fighting battles with only three people, which on Tactician and higher is a much, much more difficult task. But if you throw barrelmancy into the mix and blow everything up, it evens out a bit.

Another option that's a little easier than barrelmancy is SquireRazma's Hirelings tactic.

"Hire three Hirelings and turn them and Gale into life clerics with as much constitution as possible. Take Heavy Armour Master at level four and give them heavy armour (with Tough at level eight, and +2 Con at level 12). Then after every long rest take them one at a time and have them cast Warding Bond on the rest of the party, as well as Freedom of Movement, Death Ward, Aid, and Heroes
