I’m on my 4th campaign (2nd honour mode) and I still have yet to actually use the flask! I’m just starting Act 3 in this playthrough, but I’d love to hear your ideas and suggestions for the flask

    I threw it at Gortash, as far away from my party as possible. The beholder attacked gortash and stunned him, making all attacks on him automatically critical hits. The fight was over after 2 turns.

    Never thought about using it during combat. I’ve always just popped the top when my co-op mates are looking for something to do.

    I used it against ::: spoiler Sarevok in the Bhaal ::: tribunal (Act 3), after killing the other mobs. It absorbed huge attacks that otherwise would have ended up in my party, and died.

    Can you re-use the flask to catch something else afterward? I think I tried chucking the empty flask with no luck once, but maybe my target wasn’t actually extraplanar.

    Favorite use? Either Gortash or “giving it back” to the Zhent in Act 1 by pushing whats-her-name into the pit, followed by the flask and a torch.

    I tend to avoid using it at all. It usually ends up damaging your own party more than the enemy.
