Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players slam \u201cdisappointing\u201d Dark Urge power Larian StudiosThe Dark Urge in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is designed to be a deadly Origin character with killing as one of their main skills \u2013 but one key attacking power is undeniably \u201cdisappointing\u201d according to the community. Creating a powerful build in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is part of the game\u2019s charm. Players can spend hours creating their character, and even longer leveling them up as they figure out the best spells, abilities, and feats to help take down the Elder Brain. Each class gets something different, making them proficient in their own elements, and the Dark Urge is no different, gaining some rather twisted powers. However, some Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players are slamming one of these powers, labeling it \u201cdisappointing\u201d and urging fellow Durge players to avoid using it at all costs. The Slayer Form is a feature you can unlock in Act Two and it is essentially the Durge version of Wild Shape, allowing you to transform into a beast capable of dealing unique styles of damage and using some interesting attacks. However, many fans have taken to the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Reddit to share how \u201cdisappointing\u201d the feature is, revealing that they \u201cdid what I had to do to unlock the Slayer form and it\u2019s kinda\u2026 not impressive? Unless I missed something, it\u2019s little more than a glorified wild shape.\u201d They went on to add that they \u201cdon\u2019t think it does much more than the owlbear form for druids, which I can pick up six times a day since I\u2019m a druid.\u201d The Slayer Form can only be activated once a day, making it extremely limited, and its multi-attacks and increase in damage can be easily matched by Druids. Interestingly, this ability was in previous Baldur\u2019s Gate games, with one user revealing: \u201cIn the old games, the slayer form is powerful but also a double-edged sword. You deal more damage and it includes some buffs but each round it deals more and more damage until you die.\u201d Many fans agreed with the player\u2019s statement, with some joking that \u201cSlayer is like being lied to by a salesman\u201d when looking at its description compared to the power in action. Interestingly, one user revealed a build in which the Slayer Form works well: a Dark Urge Barbarian. Granting the character \u201cmultiple actions and being able to rage before transforming but keeping the rage effect means I can be an enraged slayer who can attack 3 times\u201d which could drastically increase their power. It seems the Slayer Form isn\u2019t the most powerful addition to the Dark Urge character, but when incorporated into the right build, it could be less disappointing than many imagine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
