In Baldur’s Gate 3, every class can select from many spells, although, naturally, some are higher than others. Just lately, one participant complained a couple of sure Bard’s spell, and others agreed it’s doubtless the worst one within the recreation.
Extra notably talking, the mentioned spell was Countercharm, a Bard motion that may be discovered upon reaching degree six. A participant named Erakleitos claimed it’s the worst one within the recreation in an Oct. 4’s Reddit post, and plenty of others agreed.
Countercharm is an motion that permits you and your allies inside 9 meters to have a bonus on saving throws towards being charmed or frightened. Sadly, it doesn’t final without end, just for the subsequent three turns, and it prices you your motion factors for a flip.
Since not that many enemies use spells or objects that attraction or frighten you, this spell is usually ineffective, sadly. There are some fights you may need already misplaced as a result of such results, and you should use it as soon as reloading a save, nonetheless.
Nonetheless, the group believes it’s simply weak, frankly talking. “To be truthful it’s additionally one of the crucial pointless abilities within the tabletop recreation too. So that is fairly on model for it,” the highest remark reads, agreeing with the sentiment. Others added their two cents to the dialogue, claiming its design is simply “flawed,” to start with, and we consider everybody who has played Bard in Baldur’s Gate 3 will doubtless agree with that view.
The writer proposed an eventual answer to the spell. They consider if Countercharm was an automated response, like Counterattack or Hellish Rebuke, it will be a way more helpful asset to have beneath your belt. It’s unlikely something would change about it, although.
