12 Awesome Baldur's Gate 3 Beginners Tips and Tactics - How to get the Best Start in Baldur's Gate 3

Grease is so helpful. Tripping up enemies can save your life

I like it, your tips helped me alot in boulders Gate 3.

Tried playing this on steam deck and really sucked at it. Gonna try again on console cuz I'd really like to experience what everyone else is going on about

Can someone elaborate on the comment about not wearing the gloves of the absolute? Are these the gloves of power you pick up from the goblin in Act 1?

I like the video but I didn't get to watch it all because it feels like I'm spoiling the game locations and enemies

Game of the decade. I love Zelda but it will not be game of the year this year for me. It’s more like breath of the wild, 2.0. It’s great and I love it but this game is much better in my opinion. So for me, this is the game of the year hands-down.

Unless I'm mistaken you've got Karmic dice 100% completely wrong? It makes the game easier, somewhat. Not harder ?

I just started the game and appreciate the tips. I know nothing about these D & D games 😅

So far it sucks for me. I miss free strolling and compete with my partner for loot. Two things I liked about BG most

Which class is best for someone who's never played a D and D game?

Thanks for the karmic dice tip. The game was kicking my paladin's as and I was getting frustrated 😅

It DEFINATLY takes some getting used to as I’ve never liked games like xcom and other strategic combat games. I prefer more action RPG’s like The Witcher 3. But the controls even on console are SURPRISINGLY easy to learn and the amount of freedom in the game is impressive! Could definitely use some actual tutorials though.

Resting too much can also make some quests fail. Rest too much and halsin from the Druid grove will be killed or the Druid grove will be warded. Don’t rest excessively.

Actually using stealth during combat made a big difference for me. I kept trying to use my rogues like warriors and was dealing 5 damage but taking 15.

Now, I try to position my rogues into high ground, engage stealth and execute stealth attacks before combat even commences. Also, I now try and out my characters into stealth whenever possible to keep taking advantage of stealth attacks whenever possible during combat. Getting a couple of big hits off early on was the difference between winning and losing a lot of battles.

Thank you for beginner tips that don't explain dnd mechanics and just game mechanics!

I don't want the best start. I want to fight without walking away and needing to rest and resurrect my party.

Whoever narrated this video should be doing voiceover work professionally.

sorry, but the statement about karmic dice is wrong.

Tried to watch your tips but i dont want to see the apoilers

Daaaam, I just bought this and I have a lot to learn, thanks for the tips!

I wanna get this when it comes out on PS5, but where are there so many games coming in in September, I don't have enough to play them all.

Worth it in under 50 seconds. NICE.

Great guide

The biggest takeaway i got from this video was you stating i can switch characters to position during dialogue....mind blown on that one. HUGE help ty

Dead enemies don't do damage. Lifelong fan of this.

Really enjoying the game its my first D&D game and turn based when I found out at release I bought Star Citzean but got it the week after and so glad I did the game is stunning and I'm quite enjoying the combat!

What a great little guide. Thank you! 😺

Very pleasant video, thank you

Hmmm I’ve been using karmic dice and it’s been pretty easy so far.

Why do you say you should focus fire enemies who's turn has already passed? For me, it makes sense the other way around.

Karmic dice also affects your dice, so you should also warn people that their own attacks will miss more consistently as well as the enemy attacks m.

I had it off and actually turned it back on after about 50 hours because combat felt pretty frustrating due to the amount of times attacks would miss. I'd rather the enemies hit me and I can actually hit them than have 3 rounds of combat where only one attack lands from either side. Nearly 200 hours in early access and I had them on during that as well, just feels better overall tbh.

Moving characters during dialogue to get into better advantage points made a significant difference in combat for me

Definitely got the karmic dice backwards. If you disable it, it removes the failure protection. Enabling it prevents failure streaks. The game outright says how it works.

Thank you for great tips

"do not equip the gloves of the absolute, you will regret it"
fails to explain why.
ok thanks for that.

I’m getting this on Friday and I can’t wait lmfao

Baldur's Gate 3 is dog shit
got a refund
my god i don't get the hype

Amen for tip one, battles shouldnt last 15 to 30 mins...good grief.

Karmic dice is ridiculous, especially if it’s a default setting. This is basically a D&D simulator; there shouldn’t be loaded dice involved.

Yeah, the inclusion of karmic dice, and especially keeping it on by default, was a baffling move. It was literally the first thing I did after installing the game (turning it off).

OMG! You can throw potions. Game Changer

This game was intentionally delayed on PS5 to come out the same day as Starfield.

Best tips video on BG3 I've watched 🙏

Why show gameplay (spoilers) in the video..

Karmic dice was on, i started my 1st playthrough today and in the helm's room of the ship all 4 of my guys (i had the brain with me) missed their attack on the boar thingy. So yeah i'm not even sure if this thing does anything beneficial for the player.

I would like to have watched this in full but all your clips are showing story points I haven't seen! How about using footage from the first couple of hours for a video targeting new players or, I dunno, not including conversation with spoilers???

The info about Karmic dice is basically 100% wrong

The races was reworked, this is old info based on the early access it seems. This guide is out of date.

You don’t get racial stat bonuses anymore you can put 2 and 1 into any stat no matter your race. What the races give you are things like weapon proficiency and traits like dark vision

Where can i find your multiclass guides?
