If you’re not a fan of where your build has gone, changing class in Baldur’s Gate 3 is easy. To do so, you’ll need to have access to Withers, a mysterious undead NPC, but this will occur as the Baldur's Gate 3 story progresses, even if you don’t find him in Act 1. Once you have him, paying a small amount of gold will allow you to respec into an entirely new Baldur's Gate 3 class, without losing your XP. Even if you’re happy with your class, it can still be fun to try out another! If you’re tempted, here’s how to respec and change class in Baldur’s Gate 3.
How to change class in Baldur's Gate 3
To respec your class in Baldur's Gate 3, you need to do it via the NPC Withers. Withers is an undead who we laid out how to find at the end of the Dank Crypt in Baldur's Gate 3, and once you find and speak to him, he'll permanently move to your camp as a sort of highly-specialised merchant. Withers' services are also how to revive dead characters in Baldur's Gate 3, and he can help procure you hirelings - he's a very versatile lich!
And yes, he lets you respec your class too. If you pay him 100 gold, you can effectively repeat that part of character customization from scratch, choosing your new class and levelling up back to what you were - so if you were a level 5 Warlock and choose instead to be a Ranger, you'll spawn at level 1 with four levels immediately to spend however you want, catching you back up to all your Baldur's Gate 3 companions.
