This video is focused on the fundamentals of magic and acts as a magic guide to players new or unfamiliar to the game. It is not intended for people who are experienced and understand magic in Baldur's Gate 3.

The video is long, so please do use the time stamps as you may not need to watch certain parts of the video. However I will also say that hints and tips are scattered throughout the video.

00:00 Intro
01:13 Spellcasting Ability Scores/Modifiers
04:14 How Ability Modifiers Affect Spells
08:26 Spell Attacks and Spell Saves
17:44 Concentration
23:38 Action and Bonus Action
25:26 Using Cantrips
26:10 Using and Replenishing Spell Slots
28:50 Spell Slots Available for Each Class
35:28 Preparing Spells for Each Class
45:13 Spell Schools
49:45 Racial Spells and Spells from Items
53:35 Outro

While this isn't an exhaustive guide it should serve as a solid introduction to how spells work and how to cast them. It covers not only things like spell slots and levels but also how each class prepares spells and magic gained from races and items.

The following document is published by the creators of Dungeons and Dragons, and is a free document for anyone to use. It has most of what you need to know about Baldur's Gate 3, but it is missing some feats and spells. It gives you a preview of what to expect from most of the classes in Baldur's Gate 3:

Do keep in mind that Baldur's Gate 3 is still in early access and so the features shown in the video are subject to change and the game is incomplete, so expect more to be added to the game in the future.
