Baldur’s Gate 3 fans can’t believe this broken ability still isn’t fixed
Baldur’s Gate 3 is, unquestionably, the 2023 game of the year. However, bugs litter the game’s otherwise stellar reputation, including the long-lived Shield Bash glitch—a reaction that should be fantastic for protecting frontliners against dangerous melee combatants, but instead remains completely broken and constantly whiffing five months after release.
Frustrated players flocked to discuss Shield Bash’s horrifying state of limbo. Some players in the thread have reported it functioning several patches ago, though most note its failure to function over the course of the game’s hotfix-filled history.
