Gloves of The Duellist

The Gloves of The Duellist in Baldur’s Gate 3 offer a unique advantage in combat. When holding only one weapon in your main hand and nothing in your offhand, you gain a significant +2 bonus to melee weapon Attack rolls. However, the description of this effect can be misleading.

It’s worth noting that the bonus offered by these gloves applies even if you have a shield equipped in your offhand, as long as you’re not holding a weapon in that hand. This means you can still benefit from the bonus while wielding a weapon and a shield together. However, the bonus will be deactivated if you’re using a versatile weapon in its two-handed mode. This can be confusing for players who assume that the bonus only applies when no offhand equipment is equipped at all, leading to misunderstandings and potentially underutilizing the gloves’ potential benefits.

These gloves will work fantastic with almost any class. You can equip it to your character’s off-hand weapon slot in the inventory, providing additional bonuses and buffs.

How to Get the Gloves of The Duellist in Baldur’s Gate 3

You can buy the Gloves of The Duellist from Lann Tarv in Moonrise Towers (X: -175 Y: -175) during Act 2, for 512 gold.

If you want to buy and obtain the Gloves of The Duellist in Act 2 of Shadow Cursed Lands, head southwest from your starting point. However, be warned that navigating the dangerous area can be challenging without additional protection against the shadow course.

We recommend that you first go to Last Light Inn in the north to receive Selune’s blessing or Moonlantern from Isobel, which will provide you with the necessary protection. Alternatively, you can defeat Kar’niss at Ruined Battlefield. If you manage to save Dolly Dolly Dolly from Kar’niss, a pixie trapped in the Moonlantern, you’ll receive the Pixie Blessing and will never have to worry about the effects of the course again.

Next, head to the far southwest side of the map to find Moonrise Towers. Only if you approach Absolute worshipers in a friendly manner, you will be able to speak with everyone and check the merchants’ stock who found their shelter in the fortress. That includes Lann Tarv, who sells Gloves of The Duellist. He will be standing to the right from the main entrance of Moonrise Towers. Ask him to trade, and you should be able to buy Gloves of The Duellist from him.
