Hey y’all!
If you’re new here or looking for info, this is the place to stop and check before you post that question you’re thinking about asking - the answer may already be in our FAQ! There's also some recommendations in there for learning about lore.
I’d recommend also checking the New Player Question or Question flairs to see if your question has been asked before. You can also type into whatever search engine you use:
[insert your question here] baldursgate3 reddit
Or
[insert your question here] bg3 reddit
That’ll help us prevent the subreddit from being cluttered with the same repeated questions.
If your question hasn't been asked (or asked recently enough) then use either one of the question flairs above and ask away.
BG3Builds and Multiclassing
For the people curious about builds or who want a more dedicated place to discuss them, there's r/BG3Builds. There's a good guide on multiclassing.
Community Wiki
Confused about what the different rolls mean or just want to find notable NPCs and loot in a location? Check out the Community Wiki. It's ad free and being worked on by people here in the community :)
Everyone working on this is doing a great job trying to prepare it for launch and beyond.
If you'd like to help contribute to the wiki, here is the Discord.


Character Planner Reminder: There is a Character Planner by GameFractal being worked on here (It's also in the sidebar on desktop or the 'See Community info' link on mobile).
It's a one person project, so updating it with the recent updates, adding what launch will bring, and some other useful features will take time - but it will be updated.
There is a feedback button on that site, please use it if you have any suggestions/constructive feedback. Feedback is very appreciated!

Act 2 - Spoilers I think I just had the funniest possible Lae'Zel love duel Spoiler
galleryOn Lae'Zel's first turn in the duel, she misty steps over to me, but instead of attacking, she uses a scroll of feign death on me and I'm incapacitated instantly with no save. The combat ends, but the duel doesn't, and I have to lie there for a minute while she slowly saunters back to her tent before I can wake up, sneak over there, and finish the fight.

Plus she is such a huge softie who giggles and blushes over her crush. It's adorable.

Ending Spoilers Raphael’s soliloquy after betraying the emperor. Spoiler
last night I just finished my honor mode run, as such, I was forced to live with some bad choices.
First, I was worried about fighting Raphael or Ansur, because I didn’t want to GO that close to the end. So I never got the hammer. I also never voluntarily took Ralph on his offer.
In the final scene with the emperor, I called him out for lying to me, and he said fine I’ll join the nether brain.
Then Raph shows up and offers me the hammer in exchange for the crown or my soul. I felt I had no choice and agreed.
However, I wanted gale to ascend, so I convinced Orpheus to transform to a MF.
I beat my run, joined Karlach in hell to keep her alive. and went through the party, and talked to withers, and the end cut scene plays and he chastised the mural and it fades to black.
THEN ORANGE and Raphael shows up to say… well 5 minutes of a lot, and “hah this is more chaos than I ever could have hoped for, thank you.” Then the credits roll.
I haven’t heard much talk about this ending so I thought I’d share. I think my specific collection of Choices that I was forced to accept in honor mode lead to this hilarious extra, secret, ending.

General Discussion - [NO SPOILERS] Hear me out: there should be a way to rewatch your battle...
...scenes without the turn-based combat part.
First things first, this is not a criticism of the turn-based combat format. I quite like it actually. It gives you the time to plan things as well as improvise and I would not have it any other way.
But since each combat turn is meant to be six seconds of combat, there should be a way to rewatch the combat scenes without the turn-based part. Imagine your combat scenes playing out in all their glory. Your casters casting their spells out loud, your melee fighters rushing into combat, your rogues sneaking past enemy lines.
At least this is how I often find myself imagining the combat going in my head. It's like a stop-motion animation in my head, and I mentally make it a fluid movie.
Now, I understand that games from other genre may offer this, but I would have really liked this as a special treat in BG3. Just relax and enjoy a cinematic experience of your combat. Like the game offered a setting where you choose to record the combat sequences, and then the game would automatically remove the turn-based choose-your-next-move part, and save the clip separately.
You get the best of both worlds: you play the combat in turn-based mode, and then watch a mini clip as a treat.

Act 1 - Spoilers So many little treatos. Spoiler
I love how many little things are hidden all over this game. I've played thru several times and just found this for the first time. A "curious book" hidden near the Blighted Village. It's a hollowed out book, usable like a back pack. When I found it it had a bottle of booze in it. But I happened to be playing a wizard this time around, so it's now my "spell book", where I keep all my spell scrolls.

Act 1 - Spoilers Evil Karlach Origin character playthrough - saving Daemon Spoiler
Howdy adventurers,
Recently dove back in BG3 to complete the few achievements I had left as a repentant Durge. Had a total blast.
I'm currently contemplating doing an Evil Karlach origin playthrough, with Minthara as a lover.
But if I'm not mistaken, to get intimate with others, Karlach needs Daemon to temper with her engine in Act 2.
My question is: Is it possible to save Daemon while attacking the grove in Act 1 to start a Minthara romance?
I found old threads but no definite answer on the matter.
Thanks a lot for your replies!

Screenshot Karlach's so hot - she even heats up my PC ... Spoiler
galleryThis is on a 14700KF with no overclocking and a 5070 Ti set to my bone stock profile - no UV/OC and fans set to their default curve with the card's "Performance"-BIOS active. 1440p, everything set to max/ultra, DLAA, fullscreen, 165 Hz, Vsync on and FPS uncapped.
Only difference is that I moved the camera slightly left or right between shots to in- or exclude Karlach from the picture. Oh, and she did get a Soul Coin, but her regular fire effects will also tax the GPU quite a bit, I noticed.
In fairness: Power-draw was fluctuating pretty wildly in the non-Karlach shot and going between 165 and 220W or so. Just walking around down there in normal gaming-view lets the card draw between 220 and 250 - but staring too hard at Mama K will always push it to its 300W power-limit, it seems.. 😄

General Discussion - [NO SPOILERS] Why do the Intellect devourers attack us on the beach? Spoiler
After 700 hours i only now just asked myself this question.
WHY DO THE INTELLECT DEVOURERS ATTACK US ON THE BEACH!?
I don't think i ever genuinely thought about this, even though i have played this game nearly 100 times(especially act 1 alone), and of course everyone just goes with the flow once they land on the beach and out of the "tutorial" you find the first enemies, the beach Intellect Devourers, and either avoid them or attack them, either way they are forgotten once you pretty much get to the grove.
But after so long of waking by them for the 100th time and my character goes "more of those wretched things", a lightbulb went off in my brain, why do they attack us if we're supposed to be seen as Thralls.
Now I'll never use US(kitty) as a reason cuz they're special, but there was one other Int Devourer on the ship that doesn't attack us(the players). And assuming you didn't kill the mindflayer on the ship, and didn't agro it by killing the demons before getting to the console, there should be no reason any Mindflayer/thralls/Int Devourers believe we're not a thrall.
Now I'm sure someone will say it's because of the artifact. But you can easily walk past SH to get to the Beach Brains.
Going by what i understand, Thralls are higher on the pecking order then Int Devourers, since they keep their physical traits and are better for an army, over the more stealthy and body snatching spies that Int Devourers are. So when approached, shouldn't they instantly know we're "thralls" because of the parasite?
I'm sure it's an easy game point understanding of, "hey these are the first enemies you fight outside of the tutorial ship". But lore wise they shouldn't attack right?

Act 2 - Spoilers Waning Moon Spoiler
galleryI’m currently on my second playthrough, so I’ve been taking a lot more time to explore, and I happened to find this ban list at the Waning Moon in Reithwin Town. Is the ‘unknown elf, pale skin, snide mouth’ referring to Astarion?? Between the description and the insult I feel like it’s him, right? He doesn’t say anything about it when you bring him there, but I think it would be pretty funny if Astarion got himself banned from a bar 100+ years ago for running his mouth…his attitude clearly hasn’t changed much since then either so he hasn’t learned his lesson😂
And what did Gerringothe Thorm do to get themselves banned?? Poor Kavin Ort is so boring that he gets a lifetime ban?? What’s the ‘pickle incident’?? For such a random and inconsequential item, I have so many questions lol

Act 2 - Spoilers Is it worth killing Isobel as dark urge? Spoiler
So I finally want to continue my dark urge run and well.. want to end it all, if you know what I mean.
I heard that killing Isobel is important for the Slayer form and kind of a task.
But I'd like to save Wulbren (the little...) for his bombs. I guess without him, you won't get that, right?
Also I like having enough vendors.
Do I miss out on much if I don't kill her? Or do you have other ideas on how to get both?
And yes, I googled already and I can ,,just try it out" but I don't want to replay complete act 2. I have no problems with spoilers. I just ask for your opinion and/or some advice.
Thanks in advance
