This page and [[D&D 5e Rule Changes|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 [[D&D 5e Rule Changes|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 features and abilities found in BG3 that are unchanged from D&D 5e to allow a D&D 5e player to quickly see what all the options are and whether or not they have changes, rather than only the items with changes which would then require a new BG3 player to conduct further research to find what is present from D&D 5e that is unchanged. If the BG3 rule aligns with a OneD&D rule or other playtest material from D&D 5e then that is considered a rule change from D&D 5e for the purposes of these pages.
