Wizard Initial Features |
|
Wizard is a Class in Baldur's Gate 3. Wizards primary ability is Intelligence, their saving throw proficiencies are Intelligence & Wisdom and they have a Hit Dice of 1d6. They have proficiency with Daggers, Darts, Slings, Quarterstaves and Light Crossbows. Wizards have very little in the way of Armour protection, and minimal Weapon Proficiencies, making them lean on their spells to support their party.
The Wizard is a spellcasting class in Dungeons & Dragons, and it also plays a significant role in Baldur's Gate 3. Wizards are distinguished by their extensive knowledge of arcane magic, which they acquire through rigorous study and the mastery of ancient tomes and spellbooks.
Unlike Sorcerers who possess innate magical abilities, Wizards rely on their intellect, discipline, and education to cast spells. They delve into ancient texts, meticulously transcribing and memorizing magical formulae into their spellbooks.
Through this scholarly process, Wizards gain access to a diverse range of spells and the flexibility to prepare different ones each day, tailoring their magical arsenal to suit specific challenges.
Wizards master the arcane by specialising in individual schools of magic, combining ancient spells with modern research.

THEY NERFED WIZARD DEVA, NOW IT'S A LV 6 SPELL.
Full Wizards already are in a "bad" spot for a full caster, and now they nerfed it? Why?
- Anonymous
"a wizard that thinks that hurling fireballs at his enemy is his job is just a hedge wizard".
Check out those supportive spells you would never want to cast as a sorcerer (because using sorcery on them would be a waste). And seems like Larian team thought the same way, since many of wizard only spells are supportive, not damaging.

If you want to play as a wizard I recomend 1~2 lvs in wizard/10~11 lvs sorceres, this way you have verstility + power, make it focused in char and pick the ogre int circlet for fixed 17 int.
- Anonymous
Wizards are the worst full caster class in this game, others class have other resources that make you continue in that class (bardic inspiration, metamagic, druid wild form, cleric power, warlock eldritch and pacts), wizards only have the scroll learning (if you dip 1 lv in any class they have full acess to this) and Arcana recovery (something that sorceres and land druid have too).
I only recommend this class for multiclassing.
- Anonymous
Why wizards need to be that bad? Full wizard is terrible, only works for multiclass 1~2 lvs in wizard and everthing else in other class.
- Anonymous
Why full wizard need to be soo bad? The only worth full lv subclass is evocation one, everthing else only worth the lv 2 and maybe the lv 6, basically a class that only works if you multiclass.
- Anonymous
What's the point of having so many weak subclasses when you'll be making WAY better use of Evocation for combat and maybe Transmutation for a camp wizard.

Sorcerers get Twinned Haste.
Wizards get unique spells like Artistry of War.
Seems like a fair exchange.

My fav build was 1 Sorc/2 Tempest/8 Wizard (divination or Evocation if you have melee in party) with Alert feat, +2 INT and all DC items/Mirror in Act 3 giving you like 27 DC on spells. You can nuke everything with Conjure Water (anyone in your party can cast it with Light Cleric dip for example) and Destructive Wave and using Snowburst ring with Cold spells to create Ice Surfaces everywhere so enemies would always prone. Basically just **** on everything.
Also use Minor Illusion before entering encounter to group up enemies in area close together to nuke them with single Wet->Destructive or prone them all with Sleet Storm/Cold Spells
The best option for wizard:
1) Take 17 int, +1 int from Ethel and +2 from feat = 20 INT
2) Dual wielder at the end to have 2 staffs.
3) War caster like feat and Alert like potion.
Feats not pokemon, but you catch them all.

Level 12.
Only a feat you don't need.
Just dipped storm sorcerer for gale.
+3 all you need, just use dc buff geat.
Warcaster and maybe resilience con.
But I couldn't be bothered resetting everything for boting con save i really didn't need.
So i went duel weilder. Duel weild 2 staffs that give big bonuses, +DC buffs.

Some math for those to cheese the respec for cheaper scroll. You need 4+ scrool per school (25g saved per scroll vs. 100g respecc cost) plus another 4 scrolls over all schools involved (100g respec cost) to even out the cost for the process. So If you want to spec conjuration just for the sake of learning a respec to evocation you need 8+ conjuration scrolls to save some money. That's is really worth the effort. Besides conjuration and evocation school scrolls it's rarely worth any gold in doing so and not really worth your time.
If you want to "save" some money, scam a few merchants with a hireling thief later on if you want some more money. But you should not have money issue at all, so don't think about.

It's good to note that any wizard spells you learn from scrolls seem to carry over if you respec into wizard again. Reasons to do this are to change your stats around or change the school you master. Do this all you want and you wont lose your learned spells. You can't, however, cast them if you are too low a level, say, if you multiclass and lack the wizard level required for the spell. Happy casting folks!

This is missing the Coolio spells ypu can learn from scrolls in act 3. I'm not sure how many there are total but at least one really good evocation spell is missing

The only class deserving of the magic they wield. Don't @ me.

I want to go wizzard/eldritch knight once the game is released on PS5 but am not sure how to split. Is it more advisable to go to 6-6 and get the third feat or go 5 fighter 7 wizzard and get the spell slots? (if I’m not mistaken the five levels in warrior should be counted as 1.666… spellcaster levels which would be rounded up to 2 giving me the same amount of spell slots a level 9 wizzard would have or am I missunderstanding how caster levels work?)

Everyone absolutely needs a Transmutation Wizard but NOT in their party. Get a hireling or respec a companion but the Transmutation skills are too valuable to not have. Mind you, playing the class in combat sucks. But twice the alchemy crafts? Free resistance on a chosen character? Invaluable. Give them as much wisdom as you can because Medicine checks rely on wisdom. You'll never run out of healing potions, haste potions, giant strength elixirs and so on.

Wizards have always been strong, but the way they've been implemented in this game does not do them full justice. They can still be very strong if setup right, though. Evocation, Necromancy and Abjuration Wizards are the strongest, and I think Divination is still strongest on PnP or when played as the face char in BG3, but is useable. One thing that could be changed in order to make them more viable in the videogame is to give more charges of the arcane recovery ability, or make it replenish upon short rest (even if conditionally), in order to make the wizards more serviceable between long rests. Nevertheless, people say evocation is not strong, but they sleep on the "powerful cantrip" class trait, ESPECIALLY when wearing a pendant that adds the int modifier to elemental cantrips. Acid splash demolishes packs of enemies without using a single spell slot. And I've finished fights with my Evowiz with a single Lightning Bolt cruising around my team mates. Necro is certainly stronger due to action economy, but Evo is definitely fun too.

So many schools are just outright bad and their special abilities do nothing of value.
Despite having the biggest amount of subclasses, it's the least diverse class by so far.

Right now all spells that leave an effect on the battlefield (grease, web, stinking cloud, cloudkill etc) have their DC's broken. If you are planning on playing a spellcaster be prepared to have your DC equal 12 or 13 for all those spells.

Just a small tip if anyone comes across this. The wiki says to learn and use Grease for area control. In BG3 this is incorrect. Prone is a worthless status effect that merely deducts an enemy's movement speed slightly, which 200% of the time will benefit you in absolutely no way. In DOS and some DnD based games Grease and Prone were really good debuffs, here it's a trap for newbies.

Wizard is so weak. 90% of game you are at 8-9 level max. At this level wizard always lose to other classes.

Seems like this wiki needs a LOT of updating. When you look at the "All Wizard Gallery" there is a plethora of spells that are not in the "All Wizard Spells Comparison Table". I'm no DnD expert, so I can't tell what belongs and doesn't but looking at the hyperlinks it seems that a lot of the spells in the Gallery are not even obtainable as a Wizard!

so... in tabletop, one of the appeals of ritual casting on the wizard is that you don't have to memorize spells to cast them as ritual spells allowing you access to an array of utility spells without sacrificing memorized spell options. unfortunately, it seems you can't do this in BG3. if you don't memorize find familiar, you can't cast it as a ritual.

6 Levels in Fighter (I like BM) and then multiclass 6 more into Wizard necromancer subclass (any order). Make sure to get the Warped Head Band of Intellect (Necro passive Grim Harvest allows you to heal from killing enemies with spells) and then you have a proper DEATH KNIGHT. Its a time investment for sure but its possible. Dark Justiciar armor is fun with this build.

Info on how many spells can be 'prepared' per level would be good.

very bad class. weak.
There is almost 0 good items for wizard. Male classes are far better.

It is so incredibly disappointing to see that Wizards can no longer learn scrolls from outside of the class. I guess it's just something modders will have to do. :/

As from patch 9 you can no longer learn spells from scrolls outside your class. So no more awesome Armour of Agathys for Abjuration mages / Heat Metal

Will there be Ritual casting spells? I think thats important for the wizard to be able to cast some utility spells without using spell slots

Whoever keeps putting that the classes roll their HP needs to stop; they don't. It's the average.
Really good and fun to play on multiclass builds, but full wizard (or at least lv 10 wiz and 2 on anithing else) only shiny at act 3 (abjuration shiny early), god tier for multiclass, and "at least it's a full caster" tier for pure wizard.
