Paladin is one of the most powerful classes in Baldur’s Gate 3, mainly due to the various abilities you receive as part of your subclass. Your underclass sees you take an oath, which will determine how your paladin acts in certain situations and make up the majority of your background. However, just because you took an oath doesn’t mean you have to keep it. If you want to free yourself from the path of your oath, you can become an Oathbreaker paladin.
Choosing to go this route will cause you to lose all abilities associated with your Oath, but will open up your character to new abilities and dialogue options. You can see exactly how to break your oath as a paladin in Baldur’s Gate 3 by reading the guide below.
