Baldur’s Gate 3 offers several backgrounds for the players to select during character creation while companions come with their own pre-selected backgrounds. These backgrounds provide proficiencies in certain abilities and affect your choices in the game. On top of that, each background in Baldur’s Gate 3 also comes with its own set of goals.BG3 Background Goals explained
As mentioned before, each background has a different set of goals to achieve. These are sort of objective tasks that players complete upon taking certain actions in the game or selecting a specific dialogue choice. For example, smooth-talking your way into a hostile area can act as one background goal.
Completing these background goals in Baldur’s Gate 3 not only awards players some precious Experience to level up but also grants them an Inspiration Point. Inspiration Points act as sort of a modifier that allows players to reroll the dice in case of a failed roll. Using Inspiration Points, players can roll two dice at the same time and the higher dice roll is selected as their default roll.
Keep in mind that a total of 4 Inspiration Points in BG3 can be stacked at one time so if players have four, they should use them as other inspiration points gained will go to waste.Baldur’s Gate 3 All Background Goals
