The Baldur’s Gate 3 community has fallen in love with being able to use one of the most hated characters as a weapon.

Baldur’s Gate 3 continues to amaze players by offering an incredible amount of ways to get creative in just about every way.

Being able to defeat a seemingly insurmountable boss or using the ability to transform into a cat to get through a locked door are just examples of what can be done in the game.

Now, Baldur’s Gate 3 fans have found a way to use one of the most hated characters as a physical weapon, and they love it.

A conversation is going on over on the Baldur’s Gate 3 subreddit with the following title: “TIL you can use [redacted] as an improvised weapon.”

In the body of the post, they reveal how they discovered they can use Cloud Giant Strength to pick up Raphael and use him as an actual weapon.

“It’s very satisfying to repeatedly smash him into a pillar until it breaks and then toss him to the next one to repeat the process.”

Many responses from the community are loving this idea, with one of the top comments thanking the poster for sharing this discovery:

“… you do not realize how much I will bully Raphael in my third and fourth run now thanks to you.”

Raphael is an antagonistic character that players interact with throughout the game, and while the character is a favorite in the story, it’s very much a “love to hate” situation.

Since he’s so diabolical, the community is appreciative of returning the favor through this method, as one user says: “This is diabolical. To do this to him in his OWN HOUSE too.”

Baldur’s Gate 3 continues to impress its players with just how much freedom it gives them to do whatever they want.
