BG3's Fog Cloud: The tactical glitch that broke the game? surfaced again on social media as speedruners shared new tricks. This old DnD 5e rule turns into a chaotic TPK generator in video games.
Mechanics turn mayhem
BG3's Fog Cloud: The tactical glitch that broke the game? is a low-level spell that heavily obscures an area. By RAW, it blocks sightlines and AOE targeting. Research shows casting it on enemies during Surprise reshapes encounter balance unexpectedly.
Repeated dashes, jump spam, and dash attacks stack movement unnaturally. Some builds abuse this to kite boss encounters with minimal risk. Studies indicate these interactions highlight how video game rules diverge from tabletop design intent.
A single move can flip a fight
Smart positioning plus dash abuse turns fog into a mobility engine. Understanding range and turn order matters more than raw stats.
Q: Does this trick work everywhere?
A: It functions in most outdoor and indoor maps, but DM rulings can block it.
Q: Is this considered cheating?
A: Competitive modes may restrict it; single player runs usually stay unaffected.
