In fact, magic users can, and should, benefit from this epic ability. Sure, classes that eventually get more than one attack can be perfect for the duel wield feature \u2013 but it doesn\u2019t have to be limited to a select few classes. The feat is available for all players, no matter their class, and magic users should undeniably be some of the first to give it a go. Essentially, when you hold more than one staff (for example), you\u2019re able to benefit from both effects. So if you have a staff that gives you two Fireballs, and a staff that gives you fire resistance, you\u2019ll get both effects at once. With the right weapons, spellcasters can create incredibly powerful combinations, all for the cost of one feat. The Duel Wielder feat, as previously mentioned, is available for all players from level four, and you\u2019ll need to grab it in order to equip two staffs. Such a combination is a relatively new discovery among the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 community, with one user sharing the idea on the game\u2019s subreddit. Naturally, fans were thrilled with the discovery, with many loading the game up again after months, to try the new class design: \u201cI haven\u2019t played for months. This just broke the camel\u2019s back. I am booting back up tonight.\u201d Others had already used the feat with their characters, and were quick to share how \u201cit\u2019s strong as hell\u201d and that they \u201calmost always take Dual Wielder for Gale, just to have the benefits of two staffs.\u201d As explored above, there\u2019s no reason companions couldn\u2019t benefit from the idea too \u2013 you\u2019ll just have to find the best weapons for the job.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Duel wielding in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 isn\u2019t just for melee fighters Larian StudiosDuel wielding is a fantastic way to fight in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 and can give you that extra attack you\u2019re looking for \u2013 but it doesn\u2019t have to be exclusive to Fighters, Rogues, and other melee characters.
