Alright, listen up, y’all. Let’s talk about this here “bg3 elemental retort” thing. I ain’t no fancy wizard or nothin’, but I’ve seen some things, and I can tell ya a thing or two about how to deal with this magical mess.

So, first off, this “elemental retort,” it’s some kinda spell, right? A real nasty one, from what I hear. Them city folk with their fancy words, they call it a “level 5 evocation spell.” Sounds like a mouthful of nothin’ to me. What it means is, some magic user can throw a whole heap of elemental damage at ya, like fire, ice, or lightning. Nasty stuff, I tell ya.

Now, the thing is, you can’t just go around learnin’ this spell. It ain’t for us normal folk. Seems like only them stuck-up NPC fellas can use it. You know, the ones always struttin’ around like they own the place. Like that Lorroakan fella, I heard he uses it. Makes him a tough nut to crack, but ain’t nobody unbeatable.

So how do you beat it? Well, you gotta be smart about it. You can’t just go chargin’ in like a bull in a china shop. You gotta think, like how you’d outsmart a fox tryin’ to get your chickens.

One thing you can do is stop them from reactin’. You know, like when you surprise a squirrel and it freezes? Same kinda thing. There’s spells for that, like “Hold Person” or “Command: Halt.” They’ll freeze them right in their tracks, and they can’t use that retort thing. Makes ’em look like a fool, standing there all stiff-like.

• Another way is to knock ’em down. Yep, just plain ol’ knock ’em on their butts. If they’re lyin’ on the ground, they can’t be castin’ no fancy spells. So, if you see Lorroakan gettin’ ready to do his magic mumbo-jumbo, just give him a good shove. He’ll be too busy pickin’ himself up to be throwin’ fireballs at ya.
• And then there’s this thing about magic missiles. Someone told me, if you can get those magic missiles flyin’, especially if they’re level 4 or higher, that can do somethin’ to stop it, or maybe just hurt them real bad before they can get that retort off. I ain’t no expert on these magic missiles, but folks say they work.
• Now, some folks say you can just use a little ol’ fire bolt to get rid of them… them elementals I mean. You just gotta be patient and wait around for the fire to do its work. It ain’t the fastest way, but it’ll get the job done. Just sit back, maybe whittle a stick or somethin’, while them elementals burn away.

And speaking of them elementals, that’s another important thing. This here “elemental retort” spell, it gets its power from them elementals. So, if you wanna make things easier on yourself, get rid of them elementals first. Take ’em out, and the retort won’t be nearly as strong. It’s like cuttin’ off the head of a snake, the rest of it ain’t so scary no more.

I also heard tell of some folks usin’ spells like “Banish” or “Globe of Invulnerability” on their buddies to keep ’em safe. Sounds like a good idea to me. Keep your friends safe, and they’ll help you fight. That’s just common sense, ain’t it?

And don’t forget to search around. You never know what you might find. I heard there’s this necklace, a “Necklace of Elemental…” somethin’ or other. Found it in a chest, they say. Might be useful, might not. But it’s always worth lookin’, ain’t it? You might find somethin’ useful, or you might just find a whole lot of nothin’. That’s just the way things are, sometimes you win, sometimes you don’t.

So, there you have it. A few things to keep in mind when you’re dealin’ with this “bg3 elemental retort.” It ain’t easy, but it ain’t impossible either. Just use your head, be patient, and don’t be afraid to get your hands dirty. And remember, even the fanciest magic user can be beat if you’re smart enough. Now go on and git ’em!
