In Baldur's Gate 3 , Paladins have three subclasses, or Oaths, to choose from at character creation: Oath of the Ancients, Oath of Devotion, and Oath of Vengeance . The Oath of Devotion is the best one to start with as it grants many useful combat-oriented, always-prepared spells. Just remember to keep to your Oath, and you won't turn into an Oathbreaker – the fourth, hidden subclass for Paladins.

Your weapon flares with white-hot intensity. It deals an extra 1d6 Fire damage and marks the target with Searing Smite.

Conjure a flaming scimitar in your hand that deals 3d6 Fire damage and sheds bright light in a 3m radius and dim light in a 6m radius. The blade can be unequipped and equipped again, but has to stay on the spellcaster's person.
