All twelve classes inBaldur’s Gate 3come with unique dialogue options, giving players plenty of opportunities for roleplay and to shape their character’s personality - but among them all, one class consistently stands out to the community.
Userozangeoshared a meme on Reddit about how paladin dialogue lines inBG3give players immense feelings of power and satisfaction, even more so than the class’s iconic divine smite. While every class adds its own flavor to a playthrough,it’s undeniable that there’s something about the Paladin experience that just hits differently.
Paladins Have The Best Unique Dialogue In Baldur’s Gate 3
Nothing Can Come Between A Paladin And Their Faith
As userJumboWheat01pointed out,Paladin dialogue inBaldur’s Gate 3often carries a strong, righteous tone - but it’s not always the most diplomatic.The game strikes a balance between letting you play as a noble mediator or a vessel of divine punishment, depending on how you want your character to approach a situation.
UserHistorical_Ocelot197noted their personal favorite paladin quote, which can be used to intimidateLump and his ogre comradesinto submission.
Dialogue also shifts depending on your subclass.Oath of Vengeance paladins deliver some especially brutal lines, whileOathbreakers get memorable one-linersthat emphasize their autonomy, no longer bound by a god or oath.
The love for paladin dialogue is far from new,and Redditors likelittlew0man_andmr_Jyggalaghave also expressed their love for the class' roleplay opportunities and reactivity in the past. With the addition ofOath of the Crown in Patch 8, paladin players now have even more story possibilities at their fingertips.
On top of this,Paladins have some of the most niche dialogue paths in the game.Without mods, to serve a particular god as a paladin, you need tomulticlass into cleric, which is one of the least chosen classes, making it feel all the more special when deity-specific options become available.
“Do it - unleash your creations. But they will not protect you from me - or my righteous fury.”
A paladin devoted to Tyr can directly call out the fake paladins early in the game - Selunite paladins, on the other hand, have many entertaininginteractions with Shadowheart.
Class Dialogue Is One Of BG3’s Strong Points
All Twelve Classes Have Great Reactivity
Larian truly excelled in crafting distinct dialogue across all classes.Bards and barbarians are other standouts - bards undoubtedly have some of the funniest options, and nothing beats intimidating an enemy by roaring at them, or punching a book to open it like userAstewisk.
Sorcerers get some hilarious banteras well, particularly when talking to Gale and other wizards. Still, Paladins arguably deliver some of the best gameplay experiences, especially if it’s your first time playing. They’re already one of the most powerful classes mechanically, and their unique dialogue gives players yet another reason to embrace an oath inBaldur’s Gate 3.
