Baldur’s Gate 3 Lae’zel Combat Glitch Workaround, Explained
Should you run into this glitch, you have a few of different options for fixing it.
The first is to make a a quick save and immediately load it. To make the quick save, press the F5 key and then wait for the game to make the save file. You might also need to wait until it syncs the save data with the cloud server, which can take between 30 seconds and one minute.
Once this is done, press the F8 key. This will load the quick save, and if it worked,Lae’zelshould be able to move and attack normally with the UI intact.
If this still doesn’t solve the problem, then you’ll need to reload the last hard save you made. While inconvenient, it has the same effect as the quick save and should resolve the glitch by the time you reach the battle where it occurred.
You can likewise circumvent future instances of the glitch entirely if you take Lae’zel out of your party. This glitch is limited to her, and doesn’t pop up with any other character. As such, you can use any other companion without running the risk of triggering the issue.
