Goblin Booyahg

Goblin Booyahgs are generic goblin NPCs and enemies found throughout Act One of Baldur's Gate 3. They are the wizards of goblinkind, although their skills and knowledge are primitive compared to more learned spellcasters.

Despite these shortcomings, they are still dangerous when ambushing in large groups. Their area of effect and crowd control spells make them high-priority targets in early encounters.
