Tridents in Baldur's Gate 3 are pieces of equipment that are used to inflict damage against hostile characters such as Enemies and Bosses. Tridents are Versatile Martial Weapons in BG3 that can be one-handed or two-handed, dealing 1-6 Damage when one-handed and 1-8 damage when two-handed. Tridents can additionally be Thrown, dealing the same damage they would when used for a melee attack. They have a melee range of 1.5m, and they deal Piercing Damage, though some special Tridents also deal another type of Damage as well.
Many Tridents have unique properties, so you should read carefully what these do, and many also have Weapon Actions that can only be used if you are Proficient with Tridents in BG3. These Weapon Actions are Rush Attack, Piercing Strike, and Crippling Strike.
