This section covers the best equipment for Great Old One Warlocks in BG3 across all three Acts. Some pieces from early Acts may still be powerful in later ones, though, and will remain equipped through several Acts.

This tends to complement a Warlock's own RP choices during dialogues, but they are both Intelligence checks, an Ability Score that Warlocks don't generally put a lot of points into. This can hinder their effectiveness, but on the other hand, having Advantage on these rolls can be much handier than a simple bonus.

The Full Blackguard Set can be obtained by defeating a trio of Death Knights who guard the Murder Tribunal. These three are known as "That Which Guards", "That Which Lurks", and "That Which Watches." Defeating them will earn you the entire Blackguard Set: Blackguard's Plate, Blackguard's Greaves, Blackguard's Gauntlets, Blackguard's Sword, and Shield of the Undevout. The Plate reduces incoming damage by 1 and grants advantage on Wisdom Saving Throws. The Gauntlets provide +1 to attack rolls and strength saving throws (Along with casting inflict wounds at level 4 once per long rest.) The Greaves grant permanent longstrider and +1 to athletics. The Shield gives an extra first-level spell slot and gives all enemies disadvantage on saving throws against any of your actions that cause fear. Finally, the Sword deals necrotic damage and can daze enemies you hit with your smites.


Acquiring this armour gives players a nifty 17 AC. However, its prominence as a Heavy Armour comes with its Intense Adamantine Backlash that resembles potent Illithid Powers , wherein opponents who miss hitting the player will experience Reeling for 3 turns. This property debuffs enemies with -1 to Attack Rolls, making striking its user and nearby allies much har

The Berserker Subclass pairs exceptionally well with the "Gloves of Uninhibited Kushigo", which boost the damage dealt by improvised and thrown weapons. Used in conjunction with Enraged Throw, this can allow the Berserker to further dish out damage using whatever's close to hand. All Barbarian Subclasses will also get plenty of use out of the "Wrath" magic items, which allows them to build up a stacking damage bonus by taking damage and raging. These consist of the " Linebreaker Boots ", " Bloodguzzler Garb ", " Enraging Heart Garb ", and " Cap Of Wrath ."


Beyond that, Shadow Magic plays nicely with Bards and Paladins, much like the other Sorcerer subclasses, due to them providing access to better armor and a wider range of weapon and armor proficiencies, which can open up new options in combat. As always, taking two levels in Fighter for Action Surge can be incredibly effective for empowering a spellcaster, especially one who can also take advantage of quicken spell to fire off even more spells in a single t


By taking advantage of the Dual Wielder feat, you can have a staff in one hand and a Shadow Blade (from the Shadow Blade Spell) in the other. This will allow you to get advantage on all attack rolls against lightly or heavily obscured foes. As for which staff to pick, we recommend Melf's First Staff in the early-game, before switching to either the Staff of Spellpower, Woe, or Markoheshkir in Ac
