[[File:Action Icon.png|alt=Action Resource Icon|left|frameless|25x25px]]
Actions are the primary interaction options players can make in Baldur's Gate 3. Everything from weapon attacks, casting spells, crouching to hide, or throwing enemies headfirst at their allies are potential actions that can be made during one's turn. Selecting your actions is important to determine how you handle the immediate situation, and even set up conditions to benefit yourself later. Many of these actions are poised to directly inflict {{DamageType|Cold}} damage; or impact the environment, nature of your attacks, and conditions your Targets will face.


Below are tables listing the known actions that inflict and/or impact the {{DamageType|Cold}} damage players can deal, their base {{DamageType|Cold}} damage, and {{DamageType|Cold}} modifiers and effects.

| colspan="7" |[[File:Spell Slot Icon.png|alt=Spell Slot Icon|left|frameless|25x25px]]Spells serve as a core aspect for combat, exploration, and interaction in Baldur's Gate 3. Spells offer the ability to easily switch between damage types (i.e. {{DamageType|Cold}}), and attacks/effects against Targets from a distance and in various ways. Except cantrips, out of combat Ritual spells, or spells achieved through [[Scrolls|Spell Scrolls]] all spells will consume the Spell Slot resource.
All classes can make use of spells, by them being a core aspect of their class (or subclass) combat, or by utilizing Spell Scrolls to achieve the result. This makes it extremely valuable, and potentially easy, to prepare companions ahead of time to cooperate their abilities and spells towards common goals.

Depending on the Surface Targets can face immediate detrimental effects like taking damage, conditions, reduced movement speed, and more. Surfaces can be quickly created in combat to ensure they afflict Targets, or in situations prepared ahead of time to allow players control over the battle ahead.
