The panel from Hell: 5th Edition live stream detailed Absolute Frenzy, the seventh largest patch of Baldur;s Gate 3; and the patch was also offered as an update to players after the broadcast.
If we look at the patch in general and the new features added:
We can say that the most prominent point in this update is the addition of the Barbarian class to the game. The Barbarian class will have both subclasses. Wildheart Barbarian and Berserker Barbarian. Wildheart Barbarian chooses a Bestial Heart and, depending on his choice, has both different combat abilities and different facial piercings. Berserker Barbarian, on the other hand, is a reckless barbarian, using his pure rage to increase the damage he does.
Called Improvised Weapons, you will be able to turn anything you can get your hands on into a deadly range weapon and throw it at your enemies. These weapons will cause damage depending on their weight, and characters will be able to use weapons weighing up to three times their Strength value. So if you’re strong enough, it’s possible to use a Mindflayer as a weapon.
Weapons such as knives, spears, grenades were also added to the game under the name Launch Weapons; thanks to them, you will be able to launch ranged attacks.
The update also refreshed the game’s interface. In addition, some improvements have been made to privacy, new magic items have been added and cinematics have been developed.
You can read all the patch notes of the game on the Steam page . Let me also remind you that we should no longer wait for Baldur;s Gate 3 until 2023 .
