When players reach the Gauntlet of Shar in Act 2 , they can search for a Gilded Chest to acquire the Least Expected . This is a Shortbow with the Darkwell Precision effect, which essentially gives wielders +1d4 Damage to Ranged Weapon Attacks when obscured by shadows.

At level seven, they add "Fire Shield" and "Wall of Fire" to their list of possible spells, giving them additional defensive options and the ability to create hazardous obstacles for their foes.

For defensive options, players should pick up the Cloak of Displacement from Entharl Danthelon in Wyrm's Crossing and the Boots of Persistence from Dammon in the Lower City (assuming he survived until Act 3.) The former gives enemies disadvantage on attack rolls against the wearer until the first time the wearer takes damage on each turn. The latter provides permanent Freedom of Movement (same as the spell), Longstrider (same as the spell), and a +1 bonus to Dexterity saving throws. The "Legacy of the Masters" gloves are also sold by Dammon during Act 3, offering +2 to attack rolls and damage with all weapons. Picking these up can make any martial character more effective , so they're worth grabbing if Dammon is alive.

Finally, level 10 Hexblade Warlocks gain "Armour of Hexes," which lets them spend a reaction when attacked for a 50% chance of entirely negating that attack. This can be a lifesaver against powerful foes, though it's inherently luck-driven.

At level ten, Goolocks will get "Thought Shield: Psychic Resistance" and "Thought Shield: Psychic Reflection," granting them resistance to psychic damage and automatically dealing psychic damage equal to any psychic damage they do take to their attacker.

This subclass also immediately grants the Druid the Guidance Cantrip and the Guiding Bolt Spell. Guiding Bolt is always prepared, and the Druid can expend a special resource called "Star Maps" to cast it without using a spell slot. They initially receive two Star Maps per long rest. At fifth level, the Circle of Stars Druid gets an additional Star Map per long rest. At sixth level, they gain three "Cosmic Omens" per long rest. These can be spent to add 1d6 to their own attack rolls or saving throws, subtract 1d6 from an enemy's attack roll or saving throw, or add 1d6 to an ability check made by the Druid or an ally within 1.5m/5ft.

Level seven offers "Dominate Beast" and "Evard's Black Tentacles," allowing them to turn animal enemies to their side and brutally restrain their foes with conjured tendrils. At Level nine, they can get "Dominate Person" and "Telekinesis," letting them manipulate humanoids and throw people and objects around freely.

Where equipment is concerned , Rangers should seek out the "Speedy Reply" scimitar in Act 1 (found on a dead caravan agent near Flind) or the "Thorn Blade" Scimitar sold by Dammon in Act 2. These two can be very effective during the first two acts, though the Thorn Blade's poison damage is unfortunately resisted by quite a few foes. The Justiciar's Scimitar (found in the Gauntlet of Shar during Act 2) is also an excellent pick that synergizes well with the Gloom Stalker's stealth tactics. During Act 3, players can track down Belm, a returning weapon from Baldur's Gate 2, which is an exceptional weapon that can turn your bonus action into an extra attack and is thus excellent for builds that aren't dual-wielding. It has some unique synergy with certain weapons when held in the off-hand, which are discussed in the Act 3 section.

"Dread Ambusher: Hide" simply allows them to hide as a bonus action. "Umbral Shroud" allows them to become invisible as an action as long as they are obscured. "Superior Darkvision" allows the Gloom Stalker to see up to 24m in darkness without issue. They also automatically learn "Disguise Self" as a first level spell.
