What Breaks the Oath of Vengeance?

In the world of Baldur’s Gate 3, the oath of vengeance is a binding contract that a paladin swears to uphold, promising to exact revenge on those who have wronged them. However, sometimes circumstances may arise that compel the paladin to reconsider their oath, leading them to break their vow and seek a different path.

Direct Answer

Several actions can break the oath of vengeance, including:

• Killing innocent people: Taking the lives of innocent individuals, whether it’s through direct attack or omission, can damage the paladin’s standing and potentially lead to breaking their oath.
• Showing mercy: Granting clemency to a sworn enemy or failing to exact revenge can be a sign of weakness and failure to uphold the oath of vengeance.
• Being convinced to spare a foe: If a paladin is convinced to spare an enemy’s life, even if it’s just out of mercy or compassion, they may be seen as having broken their oath.

Act 2

In Act 2 of the game, the oath of vengeance can be broken through several means, including:

• Telling Mol that you like her ambition: By expressing approval of Mol’s ambition, you can create a rift in your relationship and damage your reputation as a paladin.
• Failing to exact revenge: If you fail to seek revenge against your enemies or show mercy to those who have wronged you, you may be seen as having broken your oath.
