Baldur's Gate 3 crafting explained

Does Baldur's Gate 3 have crafting? RPGs and crafting systems go together like DnD and dice rolls, but Baldur's Gate has historically kept the ability to forge new equipment to a minimum. Consequently, you might be wondering if the latest entry to the series might be more extensive than we've seen in the past - we've got all the answers to help you forge the best weapons, potions, and armor for your character.

The vast majority of Baldur's Gate 3 crafting can only be performed during quests. It's no good crafting armor or weapons that can't be used by your Baldur's Gate 3 race or class, so be sure to double-check you can use their specific type before you forge them. If you've got your heart set on a specific craftable item without the proficiency to use it, don't despair - you might be able to unlock it by completing certain Baldur's Gate 3 feats. All that being said, here's everything you need to know about crafting in Baldur's Gate 3.
