Baldur’s Gate 3 players adore playing a Warlock with one key companion
Larian StudiosBaldur’s Gate 3 players can’t seem to get over how funny it can be when playing as a Warlock with one key companion.
Since Baldur’s Gate 3 is so versatile and open to many different player decisions, it’s impossible to not have a few ironic moments in the game. For example, when you’re playing as a Wizard with Gale, the two are bound to clash slightly, unless you change Gale’s class to a Wild Magic Barbarian, which is a guaranteed laugh.
However, as one player has pointed out, there are few elements that are as ironic as when you’re playing a Warlock and choose to dive into Wyll’s storyline, particularly when focusing on his rather questionable patron.
Baldur’s Gate 3 players think Warlocks match perfectly with Wyll
Sharing the irony on Baldur’s Gate 3 Reddit, one user explained how “playing a Warlock makes Wyll’s predicament so funny”.
They went on to offer a brief example of how such irony gets played out: “Mizora: ‘Wyll, you broke clause eighteen subsection three, time to be tortured for eternity!’ Tav’s fiend patron: ‘Lmao you should tell that guy to kill himself trust me it’ll be hilarious, here’s an advantage on the roll”
Having a patron as mean as Mizora sounds pretty tricky, so it’s always funny when Tav’s patron is so calm and kind.
Many other players were quick to highlight the irony and hilarity behind the matching classes. One jumped into the comments, highlighting how their “favorite part is that you can berate Wyll for taking a warlock pact as a warlock yourself.”
Others joked that the “jokes on Wyll, Withers can free me from my pact at any time.” While it’s certainly not that easy for Wyll, he should probably still talk to Withers, just in case.
One fan highlighted how important it is to have that ironic combination, explaining how “It’s especially funny because Wyll’s pact, in particular, is so one-sided due to the devs making it more akin to a standard devil deal than a warlock pact. As when you have your pact from your patron act much closer to the norm it just shows how screwed up Wylls pact is.”
If anything, the easier time Tavs have with their pact only shows how twisted Wyll and Mizora’s relationship really is, so maybe this irony actually poses a key part of the expansive story?
