Armour is an important component of Baldur’s Gate 3. Specifically, you can outfit your character with headwear often referred to as Helmets that sometimes provide specific protections or abilities alongside boosting stats. Effects range from defensive measures such as protecting the wearer from Critical Hits to offensive postures like gaining a Bonus Action. Whatever the case may be, there are plenty of helmet items to consider in your character build.

Transform yourself or an ally into a cloud of mist to avoid attacks. The target becomes Resistant to all damage, gains Advantage on Constitution, Dexterity, and Strength Saving Throws, and becomes tiny in size.

Because of their Oath, Paladins tend to create moments of positive Inspiration more often than other classes – players are basically forced to roleplay a good guy, after all, as mandated by the class’s three Oath choices.

Magically Charm a humanoid to gain Advantage on Ability Checks in wild magic dialogue Options and prevent it from attacking. Enemies have Advantage on Saving Throws against being Charmed. When the spell ends, the target might accuse you of Charming them.

Affectionately called the Bardadin by many in the BG3 and Dungeons and Dragons community, this multiclass is one of the game’s most powerful. Though it’s possible to make a Bardadin that is primarily a Paladin, it’s actually better to put the majority of levels in the Bard class and put just two into Paladin.

Multiclassing with the Sorcerer class as a Paladin can be tricky, even though both classes rely on Charisma for their abilities. It’s important for melee characters to unlock their extra attacks, which the Paladin gets at Level 5, but Paladins also get a powerful Aura at Level 6. This leaves just 6 levels for the Sorcerer multiclass.

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