The paladin class is coming to the early access version of Baldur’s Gate 3. It’s the headline addition in Patch 9 which, I’m afraid, sounds like it will be the last major content update to the early access build before the game’s full release in August 2023.<\/p>\n
Larian leader Swen Vinke said this during a patch pre-briefing a week ago, telling press – myself included – they’d now like to concentrate on finishing the game, which is fair enough.<\/p>\n
No release date for Patch 9 has been communicated.<\/p>\n
The paladin comes to the game with two subclasses, like every other class has. In this case, it’s Oath of Devotion and Oath of the Ancients. Butt! There’s a sneaky third option available called Oathbreaker. This is actually quite cool: if you break your original oath, a scary Oathbreaker Knight turns up in your camp and offers you to follow their path instead. And their path is a far more aggressive, anti-hero kind of way to go.<\/p>\n
Vincke demonstrated this by getting his Oath of the Ancients paladin to kill some innocent creatures and break his oath of protecting them, the monster.<\/p>\n
