Knock wastes a level 2 spell slot while thieves tools are plentiful. You can easily unlock anything with thieves gloves, don't even need a dex character. Speak with animals is replaced by a potion that most merchants sell for a few gold.
Smack the door with your sword. The only ones that don’t fall to my sword are arcane locked and astarion can lock pick those.
You don't really need that extra spell slot for a game that's not at all punishing in the combat department though, and having Speak With Animals memorized as a ritual is just much better QoL than having to buy and drink potions all the time IMO
I agree that speak with animals as a ritual is a QoL win, but I just sold 15 of those potions at the start of act 3 and I've never even bought one, you find em everywhere lol. Seeing as I don't think I've even taken 15 long rests, you can probably get away with just drinking the potions you find on the ground.
