Feat Changes

This page and related pages summarize rule changes from the implementation of Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition (D&D 5e) rules to Baldur's Gate 3 (BG3).

The rule changes described on this page and related pages are written with the assumption the reader understands the relevant D&D 5e rule. These pages will not explain what the D&D 5e rule is, only what the changed or altered BG3 rule is. These pages also include many BG3 features and abilities that are unchanged from D&D 5e to help a D&D 5e player quickly see which options have changed and which have not, and make decisions without having to do additional research. If the BG3 rule aligns with a OneD&D rule or other playtest material from D&D 5e, that is considered a rule change from D&D 5e.

There will be rapid changes to these pages at BG3's launch, so leaving relevant comments with any edits are strongly encouraged.

General

• In the same turn, you can use both your action and bonus action to cast non-cantrip spells.

• Example:  Fireball (action) and  Misty Step (bonus action) can be cast during the same turn.

• No spells have a somatic component. You can cast spells without a free hand.
• All spells have an implicit verbal component and cannot be cast while  Silenced, unless the spell description specifically mentions that it can be cast while Silenced.
  • Way of the Four Elements spells lack verbal components.
• No spells have a material component. There are no component pouches or spellcasting foci in the game.

• To cast spells from the Bard spell list, Bards either use their equipped musical instrument or whistle. This visually acts as a spellcasting focus.

• All spells have a casting time of a single Action, Bonus Action or Reaction. Some spells that have a longer casting time in D&D 5e have been modified so that they cannot be cast in combat.
  • Ritual Spells are always cast as a ritual, and always take their normal casting time instead of 10 minutes.
• Combat areas tend to have a large amount of verticality, but are rather small in horizontal size. This has led to many spells having a reduced range, often 60 ft.
  • Spells with a range of Touch have been changed to a range of 5 ft.
• All spell durations are either until taking a Long Rest, or are measured in rounds (up to 10 rounds).
  • Most spells with a duration of more than one minute in D&D 5e have been modified to last until taking a Long Rest.
• Scrolls can be used by any character, regardless of their class, level or Intelligence score. No ability check is needed to successfully cast a scroll.
• Cantrips get their 2nd damage increase when reaching level 10 instead of level 11, e.g.  Fire Bolt deals 3d10 by level 10.

Reaction Spells

When choosing whether to use a reaction spell, players have access to a lot more information than they normally would in D&D 5e. For example:

• When choosing whether to cast a spell that can modify the result of an attack roll, you are told the result of the attack roll, the required roll needed for a hit, and whether the attack roll was a critical hit or miss.
• When choosing whether to use an ability that can modify the result of another creature's spell, you are told the name of the spell being cast, whether or not it was upcast, the spell DC, and the result of any saving throw (if applicable).
  • No Arcana check is needed to determine the type of spell being cast.

Produce Flame	Duration increased from 10 minutes to until Long Rest.	Radius of shed light increased to 30 ft, instead of 10 ft bright and an additional 10 ft dim.
Ray of Frost	-	Can freeze a water or blood surface to become an ice surface. Hitting a target standing on such asurface will also freeze said surface and force everyone standing in it to roll a saving throw or be knocked prone.

Sacred Flame	-	-
Shillelagh	-	-
Shocking Grasp	-	-

First Level Spell Changes

Compelled Duel	Duration reduced from 1 minute to 3 rounds	The spell does NOT end if you attack another creature, or if an ally harms or targets, or end your turn more than 30 ft away.
Create or Destroy Water	The area of effect is a 15 ft radius circle, rather than 30 ft cube. This radius increases by 5 ft per spell level.

Triples your base jump using your current strength, any additives modifiers that increases your jump length do not get tripled, including to benefits from Athlete and Advanced Unarmoured Movement. The new Jump distance loses 1 meter range, it could be the game rounding the value down due to a floating-point error where the ending triple value of (base 10 strength) 5 meters -> 15 meters ended up as 14.9999' meters. (Bug?)[Needs Verification]
Ensnaring Strike	-	This is part of the attack action, and will only consume the bonus action and spell slot if the attack connects. The concentration is to maintain the ensared effect, rather than the spell's effect on your weapon. Help action automatically frees the target with no check required.

Expeditious Retreat	Duration increased from 10 minutes to until long rest, but still requires concentration	-
Faerie Fire	Area of effect is changed from a 20 ft cube to a circle with a 20 ft radius.	-

Goodberry	-	Only 4 berries are summoned, each of which can be consumed by a character holding as a bonus action for 1d4 healing
Grease	Instead of a 10 ft cube, it is a circle with 15 ft diameter	Grease can be lit on fire which does fire damage (amount of damage unknown) to creatures in the area and also ends the spell.
Guiding Bolt	Range reduced from 120 ft to 60 ft	-
Hail of Thorns	Radius slightly increased from 5 ft to 7 ft.	Concentration is not required. (uncertain if using the spell consumes a bonus action if the attack misses)
Healing Word	-	-
Hellish Rebuke	Unlimited range	-
Hex	Spell lasts for as long as the caster can maintain concentration, range reduced to 60 ft	As of EA patch 9 the spell is bugged, causing hex damage to activate a second time on eldritch blast if you have agonizing blast Eldritch Invocation.

Ice Knife	Radius slightly increased from 5 ft to 7 ft.	-

Protection from Evil and Good	Duration is increased from 1 hr to until Long Rest, concentration is still required.	The effect does not mention granting advantage on future saves if the target is already charmed, frightened, or possessed. Verification required on if this means the spell automatically ends such conditions, or if the spell has no effect on an existing condition.
Ray of Sickness	While the spell's description says two turns, it is effectively until the end of your next turn like in 5e	-
Sanctuary	Range increased to 60 ft	Enemies cannot attack the warded target for the duration of the spell. They do not get to make a save and try to attack the protected creature. If the warded creature attacks, they get the Sanctuary Blocked resulting in them unable to gain Sanctuary for 1 turn.
Searing Smite	-	This is part of the attack action, and will only consume the bonus action and spell slot if the attack connects. The concentration is to maintain the burning effect on the target, rather than the spell's effect on your weapon.
Shield	-	-
Shield of Faith	Duration increased til long rest for as long as you can maintain concentration	-
Sleep	Range reduced to 60 ft, duration reduced to 2 turns	Always makes creatures with a hit point total of 24 fall asleep, which increases by 8 for higher level casts of the spell. There is no rolling of 5d8+2d8 per upcast level. Unusually, the average of such a roll would be 22.5+9x. Thus, this spell is, on average, more powerful in BG3 when cast with a level 1 and 2 spell slot.
Speak with Animals	Duration increased to until long rest, and concentration is still required.	Owlbears are classified as beasts in BG3, so this spell allows you to communicate with them. Similar houserules may exist elsewhere
Tasha's Hideous Laughter	Range increased to 60 ft	Currently the spell also applies the unconscious effect, meaning that melee attacks within 5 feet automatically crit. (possible bug)
Thunderous Smite	-	This is part of the attack action, and will only consume the bonus action and spell slot if the attack connects. Unlike the other Smite spells, Thunderous Smite does not require concentration, since BG3 applies that to the persistent affect which this spell does not have. The target always gets pushed back 10 feet on hit, and the save is only to resist falling prone.
Thunderwave	Cube size slightly increased from 15 ft to 17 ft	-
Witch Bolt	Range increased form 30 ft to 60 ft	-
Wrathful Smite	Verification required on duration	This is part of the attack action, and will only consume the bonus action and spell slot if the attack connects. The concentration is to maintain the frightened effect on the target, rather than the spell's effect on your weapon.

Devil's Sight eldritch invocation prevents darkness from blinding those with the eldritch invocation or creatures like Imps, and allows one to make melee attacks in Darkness properly.

Gust of Wind	AoE is 40 ft instead of 60. Spell is immediate rather than lasting 10 turns and requiring concentration.	Since the spell is immediate the direction cannot be changed after the fact. Off Balance does not half the movement speed of the victims if they try to move towards the caster.

Pass Without Trace	Duration increased from 1 hr to until long rest for as long as the caster maintains concentration.	-
Phantasmal Force	-	The target cannot make investigation checks to end the spell. The flavorful aspects of the spell are replaced by changing the damage type on subsequent turns from psychic to the damage type that affected it last.
