Do You Keep Your Progress in Baldur’s Gate 3?
In this article, we will answer the question of whether progress is saved in Baldur’s Gate 3 and what players can expect regarding their game save and progression. We will also provide information on the level cap, multiclassing, and other important aspects of the game.
Progress and Saves
Unfortunately, Larian Studios has announced that progress from the Early Access period will not carry over to the full release of Baldur’s Gate 3. This means that players will have to start fresh with a new save file when the full game is released. However, saves made during the 3-day headstart period from July 31st to August 3rd will be carried over.
Level Cap and Multiclassing
The level cap in Baldur’s Gate 3 is 12, which means that players cannot take more levels beyond this point. Multiclassing is also possible, but it has its limitations and downsides. With multiclassing, players can combine the strengths of two classes, but this also means that they will have to sacrifice some of the abilities and features of each class.
Changing Classes
Players can change their class in Baldur’s Gate 3 by spending 100 gold at a certain location in the game. This will reset their character to Level 1 and allow them to select a new class.
Best Class to Start With
For beginners, Larian Studios recommends starting with the Cleric class. The Cleric is one of the easiest spellcasters in the game and is particularly easy to learn, especially for those who choose the Life Domain.
Here are the top 10 most beginner-friendly classes in Baldur’s Gate 3:
- Cleric
- Paladin
- Druid
- Monk
- Rogue
- Ranger
- Barbarian
- Warlock
- Sorcerer
- Bard
Vampire Transformation
While it is not possible to fully become a vampire in Baldur’s Gate 3, players can experience a form of vampirism by letting Astarion drink their blood. With this ability, Astarion becomes a more powerful party member, but players should be aware that there are risks involved.
Conclusion
In conclusion, progress from the Early Access period will not carry over to the full release of Baldur’s Gate 3, but saves made during the headstart period will be carried over. The level cap is 12, and multiclassing is possible but has its limitations. Players can change their class by spending 100 gold, and the Cleric class is recommended for beginners. Additionally, players can experience a form of vampirism by letting Astarion drink their blood.
