Troubleshooting BG3 Unarmored Defense: Simple Tips to Fix It

Alright, let’s talk about this bg3 unarmored defense not working thing.

I heard some folks sayin’ their defense ain’t workin’ right in that Baldur’s Gate game. You know, the one with all the magic and fightin’. Sounds like a headache if you ask me.

Troubleshooting BG3 Unarmored Defense: Simple Tips to Fix It

First thing, ya gotta make sure you ain’t wearin’ no armor. Not even a little bit. No helmets, no boots, no nothin’ that says “armor” on it. Them fancy gloves? Take ’em off! It’s like tryin’ to bake a cake with a hammer – ain’t gonna work. You gotta be wearin’ just plain clothes, like a simple shirt and pants. Nothin’ fancy.

No helmets.
No boots.
No gloves, unless they’re special bracers that say they work with unarmored defense.
Basically, nothin’ that looks like armor or says it’s armor.

Now, I ain’t no expert, but from what I hear, some folks are sayin’ that mage armor and that unarmored defense stuff don’t mix. It’s like oil and water, they say. You can’t have both at the same time. If you’re usin’ mage armor, that unarmored defense ain’t gonna do nothin’. So, pick one or the other, ya hear?

And then there’s this talk about stats. You know, them numbers they got for your character. For some folks, it’s their wisdom that matters. For others, it’s their constitution, or maybe that dex thing. It all depends on what kind of character you’re playin’. If you’re a monk, that wisdom’s important. If you’re a barbarian, it’s that constitution. Gotta pay attention to them numbers, or you’ll be weaker than a wet noodle.

I also heard some fellas talkin’ about multiclassin’. That’s when you’re playin’ two classes at once, like a barbarian and a monk. Sounds complicated to me. Some folks say it don’t work the way you expect it to, especially with this unarmored defense. So, if you’re doin’ that, maybe that’s why it ain’t workin’ right. Might be better to stick to one class, keep things simple.

If you’re still havin’ trouble, take a good look at your stuff. Really look at it. Sometimes, it’s the littlest thing that’s causin’ the problem. A tiny helmet, a pair of boots you forgot about. It’s like lookin’ for a lost button in a haystack, but you gotta do it. Make sure everythin’ you’re wearin’ is just plain clothes.

And if that don’t work, well, I don’t know what to tell ya. Maybe it’s just the game bein’ wonky. Games do that sometimes, ya know. They got bugs, just like them potatoes in my garden sometimes. You might have to wait for them game folks to fix it. Or maybe ask someone who knows more than me. I’m just an old woman, what do I know about these fancy computer games?

But remember, no armor means NO armor. And those stats, they matter. Pay attention to them, and maybe you’ll figure out why your unarmored defense ain’t workin’. And if all else fails, well, there’s always a good old-fashioned sword and shield, right? Can’t go wrong with that.

Anyways, I hope this helps ya out. Good luck with that game, and don’t let them monsters get ya!
