In Baldur’s Gate 3, the Wizard class revolves around wielding Arcane abilities to perform wondrous things.
They spend countless hours gaining knowledge about the arcane and wielding powerful magic spells. Spells that can quickly turn their enemies to dust. And support their allies if need be. A wizard’s main ability score is Intelligence.
The wizard class differs from sorcerers and warlocks. Unlike them, who either have an innate magical ability or use borrowed power, wizards use their sharp and cunning intelligence to use the powers of the arcane. This makes the arsenal of a wizard’s magical prowess formidable and reliable.
However, wizards are squishy and cannot take much punishment. They are better suited to sticking toward the rear of the party and supporting the front liners with their spells.Wizards Class hit points
Hit points are, essentially, how many points of damage you can take. The Wizard, being a caster class, can’t take much punishment in Baldur’s Gate 3. As such, their hit die is a 1d6. They start off with 6 hit points plus the bonus from their constitution modifier. At each subsequent level, they’ll gain 4 hit points plus their constitution modifier bonus.Wizard Class Action
Wizards have the Arcane Recovery class action that allows them to recover spell slots while out of combat. You cannot recover spell slots above level 5. And you’ll need to long rest after using it to recharge.Wizard fighting style
A Wizard is the main offensive caster of the party. As such, their fighting style will always be the spells they can wield. Compared to Fighters, Paladins, or Rangers that spend time learning how to fight and developing their own style, Wizards study the arcane arts. As such, they do not get to choose a fighting style. Proficiencies
You can consider proficiency as what items you equip and use for your character.
