After a short rest, their Arcane Ward's intensity is increased by an amount equal to their Wizard level.

By pairing this with the Braindrain Gloves, the Strange Conduit Ring, and either the Sword of Screams or Voss' Silver Sword, you can dish out a decent amount of damage. If you're playing as a Githyanki, you can also make use of the Psionic Ward Armour and Boots of Psionic Movement to further empower this setup.

Instead, the game focuses on the Fatebinder, a high-ranking member in a tyrant's legion who has to restore order and balance to the world after this evil emperor has conquered the world this game is based on. This makes for an interesting moral dilemma, with players essentially being villains who are enforcing the demands of a heinous lea

At level six, a Goolock gains the ability "Entropic Ward," allowing them to impose a disadvantage on an incoming attack as a reaction. Should that attack miss, they then gain an advantage on their next attack against the failed attacker. This can be used once per short rest.

At level ten, Divination Wizards gain "Third Eye: Darkvision" and "Third Eye: See Invisibility." The first of these grants the Divination Wizard the ability to give themselves Darkvision until their next long rest as an Action, while the second allows them to unmask and potentially reveal any invisible foes within 9m as an action (invisible foes must make a Dexterity Saving Throw).

The Divination School grants Wizards the abilities "Divination Savant" and "Portent" at level two. The former allows them to scribe Divination spells into their spellbook for half the normal cost , while the latter allows them to gain two "Portent Dice," which are rolled at random after a long rest. The divination wizard can replace any attack roll or saving throw within 9m with one of their portent dice as a reaction, allowing them to swap in a high number to help allies or a low number to sabotage foes.

The Great Old One Warlock is one of the best Warlock builds because of its access to powerful, battle-turning control spells that complement the class spell list. By binding oneself to a pact with the Great Old One, Warlocks gain the Mortal Reminder passive, which makes enemies Frightened on crits.

The Archfey Warlock makes their pact with a powerful Fey and draws on the capricious and whimsical powers of the Feywild. At level one, they gain the power "Fey Presence," which allows them to frighten or charm all creatures in a 3m range as an action, assuming they fail a Wisdom Saving Throw.

At level one, they also have the additional spell options "Faerie Fire" and "Sleep," allowing them to outline targets to grant advantage or just put their enemies to sleep. At level three, they can also choose "Phantasmal Force" and "Calm Emotions," letting them deal repeating psychic damage that will shift damage type to match the last attack that hit the target and allow them to immunize themselves and their allies from being charmed or frightened. Level five adds the options of "Plant Growth" and "Blink," letting them create difficult terrain and flicker out of reality after their turn to evade attacks (sometimes Fey Magic is fickle.)

The max level in Baldur's gate 3 circle of stars Gate 3 is Level 12, and most of the time, each level you gain will grant something new for your Warlock build. On character creation you gain the basics for the Warlock class, then steadily gain Feat Choices, new spells and abilities, subclass features, and increase your Proficiency Bonus.


That said, if players are looking for something a little different, find themselves intimidated by D&D 's complexity, or are simply looking for a graphical analog, there are several video games out there that channel that classical Dungeons & Dragons charm if they aren't inspired directly from the source material. These games feature massive stories, intricate combat systems, and a wealth of interesting characters in imaginative worlds that encompass everything from classic high fantasy to sci-fi epics and everything in betw

The Sage background grants proficiency for Arcana and History checks , and will typically trigger Inspiration when the Warlock engages in the magical elements of the world (like getting to Lorroakan's tower), or figuring out the historical significance of places in the world.
