Larian’s latest Panel From Hell update reveals some big changes to today’s Baldur’s (opens in new tab)Who will provide the voice of Minsk, a staunch companion from the original Baldur’s Gate game, who added a Paladin class, raised the level cap, updated Gate 3 with a new “reaction system”, and returned for BG3.
The Paladin class is a powerful foe of evil, capable of dropping hammers in melee combat as well as providing aid and support to other members of the party.Paladins in Baldur’s Gate 3 have two subclasses to choose from; , each with their own abilities. The Oath of Devotion allows Paladins to summon an aura of vengeance that damages those they attack, and the Oath of the Ancients gives them the power to heal nearby allies.
But there is also a hidden subclass, Oathbreaker. This is not so chosen as to be imposed on those who stray from the oath. advantage of not having one). You can always start your path to redemption.
The new patch also gives Baldur’s Gate 3 players greater power by raising the level cap to 5. This is especially beneficial for magic types that have access to level 3 spells, including the classic (and highly destructive) fireball spell and other useful things. Such as Counterspell and Animate Dead.
Players are also given the chance to perform special actions like Opportunity Attacks in the heat of combat thanks to an updated reaction system, which Larian also gave keen-eyed observers a glimpse of last week’s teaser. See what’s not: Spellcasters have access to “fly” spells that can be used in and out of combat, literally flying to unreachable places.

He is also a prolific voice actor. , Red Dead Redemption, World of Warcraft, and many others.

Larian didn’t say why the original Minsk voice actor Jim Cummings (opens in new tab) I didn’t go back to the new game. I reached out to ask why (I’m a longtime BG fan, so I’m curious) but it’s possible he just couldn’t narrow it down. movie (opens in new tab) Puss in Boots: Last Wish and Chip and Dale: Rescue Rangers. He’s a busy man! As for who is in charge of Jaheira’s voice, it remains a secret for now.
