|[[File:Spell Conjuration ConjureElemental HigherLevel Water.png|alt=Water Myrmidon Icon|left|frameless|100x100px]]The Water Myrmidon is the third and most powerful {{DamageType|Cold}} damage dealing elemental summon in Baldur's Gate 3. Brought forth through the Level 6 spell, [[Conjure Elemental]]: Water Myrmidon. The Water Myrmidon can be a costly ally to summon using the valuable 6th level spell slot, but offers great strength and utility in combat. 1 Water Myrmidon is summoned at a time, conflicts with any other entities summoned through Conjure Elemental, and persists until death or Long Rest.
