There’s both wonder and challenge to be found while exploring Pillars of Eternity’s world of Eora, and if you ever find yourself in a bind, having some handyconsole commands and cheats at the ready couldn’t possibly hurt.
Thankfully, Pillars of Eternity’s old-school inspirations go as far as including console commands, the use of which requires bringing up the in-game console.
On PC, this is done with a press of the tilde (~) key followed by one press of the Enter key. With the console brought up, you first need to input “IRoll20s” without the quotation marks to enable cheats.
Keep in mind that doing so disables achievements for that playthrough. Press Enter again and you can repeat the process for other commands.
