Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 enemies have exclusive access to a powerful D&D 5e subclass Larian StudiosBaldur\u2019s Gate 3 has a Warlock subclass from D&D 5e that is only accessible to NPCs, giving them exclusive access to its powers. The Warlock class in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 and D&D 5e is given magical powers by making a contract with a higher power. You pick your Patron at level 1, with Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 giving players access to The Fiend, the Great Old One, and the Archfey. D&D 5e has more options for Patrons, including the Undead, where your power comes from a being like a lich or a vampire, such as Vecna or Strahd von Zarovich. Unfortunately, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players cannot use this Pact for their Warlock. There is an enemy in the game who does have the powers of the Undead Warlock however: Ch\u2019r\u2019ai Tska\u2019an, a Gith who is part of a group that ambushes the party. Ch\u2019r\u2019ai has access to the powers of the Undead subclass, including Form of Dread, which lets them take on a monstrous appearance. The Undead Pact also has fairly easy abilities to adapt to Baldur\u2019s Gate 3. Form of Dread gives you temporary hit points and lets you scare enemies when attacking them, Grave Touched lets you switch a damage type to Necrotic, and Necrotic Husk makes you resist\/immune Necrotic damage, as well as giving you a Reaction attack when you drop to zero hit points. All of these abilities have equivalents in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, so it wouldn\u2019t have been too difficult to implement the Undead Warlock subclass. As pointed out on a thread on the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Reddit, fans are mad that this wasn\u2019t an option for the player. The Warlock Patrons are barely present in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 (excluding Wyll and Mizora), so it\u2019s not like a ton of extra narrative content would be needed. Larian has confirmed that Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 won\u2019t receive any DLC, so the Undead Warlock won\u2019t be added to the game\u2026 officially. Mods already provide access to the Undead Pact, so PC players can at least unleash the power of the living dead on their enemy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
