The Faithbreaker warhammer grants you a special weapon action, and you can get it during Act 1 of Baldur’s Gate 3 (BG3).
Faithbreaker
In Baldur’s Gate 3, Faithbreaker is a decent early-game warhammer that grants a unique weapon action to any character that has Proficiency with it. The Absolute Power weapon action can deal an additional Force damage and possibly pushes your target back 5 meters. Furthermore, you can use the special weapon action once per Short Rest.
Additionally, warhammers are a weapon you can choose to use with one hand or two. Wielding it with two hands will incurr an additional few points of damage. However, you will likely want to pair Faithbreaker with a shield for greater protection for your melee build.

How to Get Faithbreaker in Baldur’s Gate 3
To get the Faithbreaker warhammer in Baldur’s Gate 3 you will need to find Dror Ragzlin in the Shattered Sanctum and either pickpocket or loot the weapon after killing him. To get to the Shattered Sanctum you first need to find and enter the Goblin Camp on the west side of the Act 1 map. There is the main entrance, which is guarded by goblins. You can either talk your way past them or fight. There is also a back entrance you can sneak through, but you’ll have to be very careful of traps.
Once inside the Goblin Camp head north into the former temple courtyard. At the farthest point north will be the entrance into the Shattered Sanctum. You’ll again have to talk your way past some guards just inside. Tell them you are there to meet with one of the Camp leaders, Dror Ragzlin.
Finding Dror Ragzlin Inside the Shattered Sanctum
You will find Dror Ragzlin at the very back of the Sanctum, where he is surrounded by a group of goblins. He’ll be attempting to speak to the corpse of a Mind Flayer and you can attempt to help or interfere with his progress. If you want to side with the Goblins and don’t wish to kill him, you can attempt to pickpocket and steal the Faithbreaker warhammer from him.
However, if you’re choosing to side with the Druid Grove then you’ll need to fight Dror and the entire group inside the large room. Positioning is key here, and we recommend sending your party climbing up into the rafters above. There, you can do a lot of damage before most of the fighters can get up there to retaliate.
Finally, when the fight is over, head back down to loot the Faithbreaker warhammer from Dror Ragzlin!
