Wizards get to choose two skills from a list of six at character creation, including Arcana, History, Investigation, Insight, Medicine, and Religion. Choosing the Sage background removes History and Arcana from the pool of other skill proficiencies Wizards can learn at Level 1, leaving four choices remaining, while Guild Artisans just lose Insight.

Players can get excellent results by mixing in the Acid Damage equipment, beginning with the Caustic Band sold in the Myconid Colony in Act 1, which adds 2 Acid damage to all weapon damage dealt by the wearer. This is a small but helpful addition that becomes much more dangerous when paired with the Ichorous Gloves (Act 2, Stashed in the Storeroom at The Waning Moon) to apply the Noxious Fumes condition. This condition causes creatures within 3m of the target to take 1d4 acid damage. Add Varsh Ko'kuu's Boots (Act 1, Githyanki Creche) to gain resistance to Acid and immunity to acid surfaces.

When looking for some endgame armor, you could consider the Helldusk Armor acquired from the House of Hope. Getting the full set means facing off with Raphael and his incredible boss music, so it's highly recommended. The Helldusk Armor makes you fire-resistant, immune to burns, inflicts burns on casters if you succeed in the saving throw against their spell, reduces all damage you take by 3, and allows you to fly. The Helldusk Boots can be found on the top floor of Wyrmrock Fortress, providing the wearer with fiery teleportation and immunity to being forcibly moved by enemy spells and actions. They also let you spend a reaction to change a failed saving throw into a success, helping you shrug off dangerous effects and trigger the Helldusk Armor's burn effect. Add in the Helldusk Helmet (Also found in the House of Hope) to gain immunity to critical hits, immunity to being blinded, and to deal extra fire damage against any target that is burning. Alternatively, Sarevok's Helmet could be an excellent choice, reducing the target number for landing a Critical Hit to facilitate even more damage. You can find Sarevok's Helmet by defeating Sarevok at the Murder Tribunal.


When players defeat Enver Gortash in Wyrm’s Rock Fortress, Avowed RPG they’re able to loot Fabricated Arbalest from his corpse. At first glance, this Very Rare Heavy Crossbow has the typical arsenal of Special Actions from its weapon type, particularly Piercing Shot and Brace. However, its Rarity is earned through its Dazzling Ray and Illuminating Shot Acti


At level 11, Storm Sorcerers get the ability "Storm's Fury," which deals lightning damage equal to their level to a foe that strikes them with a melee attack. It can also knock attackers back. This helps the Storm Sorcerer to deal with any foes that manage to approach them in me


Players looking for the best ranged weapons in Baldur’s Gate 3 don’t necessarily need complicated armaments to accomplish their needs, especially when the Hand Crossbow +2 can achieve a damage output close to the performance of regular Cantrips with unique Weapon Actions. Acquired from a wall vault inside Lady Jannath’s Estate, the Hand Crossbow +2 can be the perfect companion for a Spellcaster who wants an actual weapon they can rely on or a perfectly-functional ranged armament for the long-distance combat

Spore Druids can make excellent use of any staff that has added damage, such as the Gold Wyrmling Staff (Act 1, Sold by Roah Moonglow at the Goblin Camp) or the Cacophony Staff (Act 1, Sold by Lady Esther at the Rosymorn Monastery Trail) since the bonus damage will stack with the necrotic damage from Symbiotic Entity. When paired with the Shillelagh spell these staves can dish out a surprising amount of damage while scaling entirely off the Druid's Wisdom. This can be further boosted using the Polearm Master Feat.


In Baldur's Gate 3 , players are able to choose from all nine of the classes found in the D&D 5e Players Handbook. This offers players a ton of variety when it comes to what sort of character they want to make. Further, enhancing character variety is the selection of subclasses that can be selected either at level 1 or level 2, depending on the cl
The Sorcerer is one of the most volatile Classes in all of Baldur's Gate 3 thanks to their wild spells and ability to use Metamagic to enhance their spellcasting skills. Sorcerers are at their best when they put all of their effort into maximizing their damage output, which the Draconic Bloodline subclass offers in spades.
Though Sorcerers might think they should stay away from combat, a Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer performs just as well up close as they do at a range. Their higher AC and HP compared to other casters is really noticeable, and the class' use of Metamagic skills to amplify the effects of their spellcasting just makes close-range and AoE spells hit more often, or hit harder.

Each of Baldur's Gate 3 's classes offers different abilities and utilities to the team, from the Rogue's incredible burst damage and trap-removing abilities, to the Fighter's access to every weapon and armor type, or the Druid's ability to shapeshift and speak with any animal they meet.
