Patch 6 for Baldur's Gate 3 is now live!

If you're looking for full patch notes after reading our latest Community Update, you've come to the right place. Read on, brave adventurer! Please note that these patch notes are intended as a guide to what is new in Patch 6 of Baldur’s Gate 3. They are not exhaustive.

Baldur’s Gate 3 - Patch 6 notes

NEW:
  • Added new Grymforge region, an ancient Sharran fortress featuring new content, quests, combat, and mysterious NPCs to face. Added setup for several Grymforge quests in the Underdark.
  • Added new Sorcerer class, featuring two unique subclasses: Wild Magic and Draconic Bloodline. - Wild Magic: Embrace chaos and manipulate the forces of chance to gain advantage on attack rolls, ability checks, or saving throws - and potentially trigger a random effect in doing so. Examples include putting everyone around you on fire, gaining teleport as a bonus action or summoning a hostile mephit!
  • - Draconic Bloodline: Channel the powers of your dragon ancestors and wield deadly fire, lightning, acid, poison, or cold damage to destroy your enemies.
  • Sorcerers of Draconic Bloodline will also gain a spell that matches the ancestor, for example Red Dragon provides access to Burning Hands
  • You also gain access to a unique visual customization option in the form of the draconic scales.
  • New Sorcerer spells were added:
  • Horrific Visage: A new Tadpole Action that makes your enemy bleed and allows the Sorcerer to leech a Sorcery Point off of them.
  • Enlarge/Reduce: This new spell alters a character's size, affecting their physical stats in the process.
  • Chromatic Orb: A powerful new single-target nuke that allows Sorcerers to hurl a sphere of energy at their foes.
  • Cloud of Daggers: This spell protects the caster, surrounding them in a cloud of flying daggers.
  • Crown of Madness: As the name suggests, this spell sends an enemy mad, and can cause them to attack their nearby allies.
  • Metamagic: Metamagic is the Sorcerer's signature feature which allows you to adapt your spells in the heat of combat. With it, you can increase a spell's range, duration, or hit two enemies simultaneously, among other powerful variations on your spells - making you a powerful and unpredictable presence in battle.
  • Added new weapon actions, giving ranged and melee weapons up to three lethal signature moves - now non-magic wielders have more options at their disposal in combat as long as they are proficient with the weapon.

  • Weakening Strike: Target an enemy's hands with a non-lethal attack to give disadvantage on its Attack Rolls.

  • Pommel Strike: Make a non-lethal attack against an enemy to possibly Daze them.

They have finally added the mud/blood visual system, neutralizing my personal gripe about all the characters being always too shiny, perfumed etc in the process :incline:

High ground bonus has been reworked - it only grants +2 instead of the advantage.

They're doing floating modifiers now? Do they use this anywhere else?
Click to expand...
Granting advantage was the right thing to do in that case, not sure why they changed it. Having the high ground is a perfect example of when to give an advantage if you use the DMG rules
Consider granting advantage when
Circumstances not related to a creature's inherent
capabilities provide it with an edge.
Some aspect of the environment contributes to the
character's chance of success

Making advantage easy to get cheapens it. What use is fairy fire or reckless attack, if you can just get to the high ground or backstab? But this entire argument is pointless, because both backstab and high ground advantage are gone now.

and because I know some tard is going to go "NO HIGH GROUND BONUS IN MUH D&D!!! IT'S NOT REAL D&D LIKE I NEVER ACTUALLY PLAYED!!!!"

High ground bonus has been a part of D&D since Chainmail. 5e is just rules-lite and gives you vague ideas of what the rules should be because paying for a finished product is fascism.
