Wild Magic is a Subclass of Sorcerer in Baldur's Gate 3. Wild Magic's primary ability is Charisma, their saving throw proficiencies are Constitution & Charisma, and they have a Hit Dice of 1d6. They have proficiency with Daggers, Quarterstaves, and Light Crossbows.

The Wild Magic is one of the Sorcerer subclasses in Dungeons & Dragons and Baldur's Gate 3. It grants Sorcerers a connection to chaotic and untamed magic, leading to unpredictable and wondrous effects.

When a Wild Magic character casts a spell of 1st-level or higher, there is a possibility of an additional random effect occurring alongside the spell's intended effects. This unpredictable outcome can be either beneficial, harmful, or a mixture of both, depending on the specific effect and the context in which it takes place. The Wild Magic subclass brings an element of chaos and excitement to the character's magical abilities, creating memorable and unpredictable moments in their adventures.

The Wild Magic Sorcerer also gains the Tides of Chaos feature, allowing them to gain advantage on one attack roll, ability check, or saving throw.

Your powers come from ancient forces of chaos. They churn within you - waiting to burst free at any time.

  Honestly, the wild magic itself is just fun, not the primary feature or benefit. Sometimes it helps you, and sometimes it hurts you. The reason you take this subclass is Tides of Chaos and, in particular, Bend Luck.
  
  Bend luck has far, far more utility than you might initially think just reading the tooltip. You cast a high level spell and an enemy barely made the saving throw, oops, turns out they actually failed. You got paralyzed and are stuck doing nothing while the enemy crits you to death, turns out you actually made your saving throw and it didn't happen. It's not as flashy and cool as getting a few extra damage points on your firebolt or being able to fly, but once you start using it you will probably realize quickly how strong it actually is.

  If a wild magic roll restored tides of chaos like it does in 5e that'd make it so much better.

  This isnt actually a wild magic subclass. this is a cursed subclass and when you get lvl 11 you'll get to pass the curse on to other casters. Then it gets better as a subclass. Barb has the actual wild magic subclass.

  I kept going back and forth on what sorcerer to pick, wild magic or storm. It took a wild magic surge that deleted progress (mephit blew up and TPK'd me) that made the decision for me.

  I gained teleportation with a wild magic surge. Not the switch one, just standard teleportation as a bonus action for 2 turns.

  Been playing with Wild Magic for a few hours.
  
  Yet to have a single benefit from a Wild Magic proc.
  
  This isn't to say they've all been harmful, but nothing has actually helped. Things like Speak with Animals or Flight (But when I have no movement left in the turn so can't do anything with it) aren't harmful but don't help.
  
  The closest I've been to a helpful effect was I proc'd Shield during combat. But I still got hit by the 1 attack sent to my character anyway (Because unlike actual Shield spell, it's not activating when it would counter their attack roll, they can still roll high and bypass your +5 AC)
  
  Meanwhile, it's been annoying to no end. Stuff like Entangling my party when I'm buffing up with Longstrider (From Bard Multi), casting Fog making my party have to reposition, so many Resilient Sphere and Slow procs making my character useless in combat...
  
  It's been dissapointing. Especially since my prior experience with Wild Magic is that it was typically beneficial overall, but kept in check by negative and dud effects so as to not be OP. However, here, even looking at the current table of effects, there's like 3-4 effects I'd like to receive out of 22, so like 15% chance of being positive and 50% chance of being negative and 35% chance of being neutral/situationally useful.
  
  As it currently stands, Tides of Chaos is nice. But I'm hesitent to actually use it because I actively DON'T want Wild Magic procs, which defeats the purpose of Wild Magic and is a shame, because normally Wild Magic is fun and you get excited about what the next proc might bring...

  I spent a ton of hours trying to understand this only for the tool tips to say everything I didn't understand, but it didn't make sense till after testing. I think a lot of other people confused by Wild Magic and Tides of Chaos in BG3 as well though so:
  
  -Wild Magic proc if you roll 20 on a 1d20 after any level 1 or higher spell (cantrips don't count)
  -Tides of Chaos "increase the chance" by changing the DC to 11 or higher on a 1d20
  --Tides of Chaos is a reaction by default and only triggers if you cast a level 1 or higher spell with an attack roll (spell saves DC on target don't count as an attack roll) or if YOU yourself need to roll a spell save against an spell/skill used against you, OR if you need to pass an ability check such as intimidation, survival, investigation, etc.
  
  The one "broken" part for Tides of Chaos, is when open world exploring, it won't prompt a reaction if you walk by a hidden spot or scenarios that are not turn based "combat" or a conversation tree. IF you activate Tides of Chaos manually, it WILL trigger on the very next open world exploration ability check without a reaction call popping up.
  
  Getting Tides of Chaos to trigger so I could "control" Wild Magic, took me too many hours than I want to admit and figured someone else out there might benefit from my stupidity.

  I love the concept of this subclass but Wild Magic has been a burden over a blessing time and time again and I'm not even done with Act 2 (though I have replayed Act 1 several times now). Tides of Chaos is great but often I find myself a sheep or blowing up my party over getting the forced crits or heals.

  Throw objects with your mind breaks concentration the moment you use it. Screwed me with Haste. Subclass isn't well built, sadly.

  As of hotfix 4 and since launch, it seems as though Turn Magic does nothing. It gives you the status that it should be triggering an effect every turn however no effects actually occur

  really wish we had the pseudo random wildmagic home rule. aka every time wild magic fails, the DC reduces by one, resetting when it succeeds.
  Winds of magic sets the DC to 11 (45% chance), but you seem to lose the buff whether it fails or not and after a certain amount of time.
  So your gonna be lucky to see wild magic procs once per long rest.
