Wyll | Baldurs Gate 3 Wiki

Wyll is a Companion in Baldur's Gate 3 (BG3). Companions assist the player by joining their party and have their own backstories and unique characteristics. They all have their own Classes and starting equipment. Companions can also be selected in the Character Creation screen allowing players to play from their point of view.

Wyll made his name as a renowned hero in Baldur's Gate. But to become a living legend, he struck a bargain with a devil, a bargain from which he longs to break free before it consumes his soul for good.

 

Noble by birth, Wyll made his name as the heroic 'Blade of Frontiers'. He keeps his pact with a devil well-hidden, and is desperate to escape the hellish bargain - even if that means rescuing the seductive creature that made the deal.

Wyll BG3 Backgrounds

Wyll is the son of Grand Duke Ulder Ravengard and Francesca, who died in childbirth. When he was seventeen, he encountered some Tiamat cultists ready to summon thedragon goddess to the realm. To stop them, Wyll signed a contract with Mizora: her powers in exchange for his eternal servitude.

When his father, Ulder Ravengard, returned from Elturel to find his son accompanied by a devil, he demanded an explanation, yet Wyll's tongue was unable to explain what happened, and the scene of the ordeal was conveniently cleaned up. In his disappointment, Duke Ravengard cast Wyll out from the city, exiled to the frontiers.

Ever since, Wyll has roamed the frontiers beyond Baldur's Gate, struggling to serve the city, protect the weak and fight for justice, as he carries out Mizora's infernal whims.

Baldur's Gate 3 Best Wyll Guides

Best Wyll Warlock Sub-classes

The Fiend Subclass

This is already Wyll's default subclass, and it ties very well for him story-wise. The subclass also has some specific subclass features that make it the best for him. Starting at Level 1, you get Dark One's Blessing, which grants him temporary Hit Points equal to his Charisma Modifier + Warlock level whenever he kills a hostile creature. This boosts his durability and gives him a bit of healing in the middle of combat if the party isn't in a position to heal him using other members' resources. At level 6, he gets Dark One's Own Luck, wherein he can add a 1d10 to an ability check once per Short Rest by asking for help from his patron. At level 10, the subclass gives him Fiendish Resilience, which grants him Resistance to one damage type until he picks a new one during a Short Rest.

While it's not necessary it's recommended for players to respec Wyll after they meet Withers to redistribute his Ability Scores and give him the best possible stats possible. Charisma is the first Ability to prioritise, as it is the Warlock's main stat for spellcasting. Dexterity should be the second most important Ability to focus on so that they can raise his Armour Class. Warlocks usually only have Light Armor proficiency, so raising his AC through his dexterity is a good strategy. It also raises his initiative, allowing him to act earlier during combat so he can set up spells and position himself better in the map. Lastly, players should also put some points in Constitution to give him a bigger Hit Point pool and give him a better chance at succeeding Concentration checks to keep his spells active during combat.

 

Eldritch Invocations

Starting at level 2, Wyll will unlock Eldritch Invocations that allow players to choose special abilities that bolster his Warlock build. Players will be able to choose 2 Eldritch Invocations, and the ones that are recommended for him are Agonizing Blast, and Repelling Blast.

Agonizing Blast allows players to add Wyll's Charisma Modifier to the damage of his Eldritch Blast cantrip which buffs his damage output, as the cantrip is the class' bread and butter, considering they only get a few amount of spell slots, even though they do replenish during a Short Rest.

Repelling Blast on the other hand, will allow Wyll to push his enemies back when hitting an enemy with Eldritch Blast. This invocation will help keep enemies at bay and at a safe distance from him. It can also be useful when fighting at high ground, as it can push enemies off of cliff edges or ledges to further inflict damage to them by falling.

 

Pact Boon

At level 3, Warlocks can choose a Pact Boon from their patrons. These can be thought of as special gifts from the warlock's patron that further define their gameplay by changing how they function mechanically, almost like a second sub-class. For Wyll, it's recommended to go with the Pact of the Blade.

The Pact of the Blade allows Wyll to use his Charisma modifier when making weapon attacks with their Pact Weapon instead of Strength or Dexterity. This means that it will boost not only his damage, but also the chances of his weapon attacks hitting their target since it will be using the same modifier as his spellcasting. With his Blade of Frontiers passive features, he can make use of rapiers and use his Charisma modifier when attacking with it.

Best Equipment for Wyll in Baldur's Gate 3

Weapons

Sword of Screams

The Sword of Screams is a rapier that can be equipped on Wyll to make use of his Rapier Proficiency through his The Blade of Frontiers passive feature. The weapon deals 1d8 piercing damage plus an additional 1d4 Psychic damage on a hit. Using the weapon in combination with his other gear like the Strange Conduit Ring, will boost his damage even further. Through his Pact of the Blade Pact Boon, Wyll will also be using his Charisma Modifier for his weapon attacks, allowing him to hit his enemies more. The rapier can be looted from True Soul Nere at Grymforge

 

Duellist's Prerogative

The Duellist's Prerogative is a Rapier that is great for Wyll in the late-game. The rapier has the Elegant Duellist enchantment, which lets you gain an additional reaction per turn, as well as reducing the number you need to roll to land a Critical Hit down to 19 while your off-hand is empty. Additionally, it also has Withering Cut, which allows him to deal additional Necrotic Damage when he lands a melee weapon attack against an enemy using a Reaction. It also has two other extra effects, Challenge to Duel and Dueller's Enthusiasm. Challenge to Duel makes it so Wyll can challenge an enemy to attack only him, giving Disadvantage to the enemy if they attack anyone else besides him. Dueller's Enthusiasm, on the other hand, allows Wyll to make an additional melee attack with the weapon if he isn't dual-wielding. The rapier can be obtained as a reward for completing the quest 'Save Vanra' in the Flaming Fist barracks near the Basilisk Gate. 

 

Best Feats for Wyll in Baldur's Gate 3

Early on in the game, it's recommended to choose the Ability Score Improvement option whenever he can gain a feat to raise Wyll's Charisma up to 20. After his Charisma Score is maxed out, you can take the Spell Sniper Feat. The feat will reduce the number you need to roll to land a Critical Hit by 1, granting Wyll a higher chance of dishing out Critical Hits using spells that use Attack Rolls. This effect also applies to Eldritch Blast and other cantrips that use Attack Rolls.

• Spell Sniper: You learn a Cantrip, and the number you need to roll a Critical hit while attacking with a spell is reduced by 1. This effect can stack.

Wyll BG3 Tips and Notes

• Fire Warlock build
  • Leather Helmet
  • Leather Armour +1
  • Metallic Gloves
  • Spiderstep Boots
  • Ritual Axe and Dragon's Grasp
  • Neck: Amulet of Elemental Torment Ring: Ring of Poison Resistance Ring: Crusher's Ring
  • Optional: Any Light Crossbow +1
• Early access: It's possible for Wyll to die during the goblin battle. He may also get stuck at the gate afterwards, repeating "you'll have plenty of time to thank me later" and never moving towards the training area or giving his recruitment dialogue. The only known way to fix this is by reloading an earlier save from before the battle and trying again. 
• Wyll has innate proficiency with rapiers
• Pursuing the Mizora Romance plate will make Wyll very pissed. Like going with this storyline is a constant source of Wyll disapproval
