How to Get Rupturing Blade in Baldur’s Gate 3

In Baldur’s Gate 3, a Rupturing Blade is a Rapier weapon you can get from a merchant during Act 1 – This short Guide Explains everything you need to know about the Rupturing Blade in BG3.

Rupturing Blade

In Baldur’s Gate 3, the Rupturing Blade is an enchanted one-handed blade classified as a finesse weapon. This classification allows it to benefit from the wielder’s Dexterity, making it an ideal choice for a Rogue, like Astarion, who can use finesse weapons for sneak attacks.

Although it may appear straightforward, this blade proves valuable for a Rogue who has unlocked the dual-wielding feat. It can also be suitable for a Warlock or Bard seeking a main hand weapon. While it’s likely to be replaced later in the game, it offers decent damage output during the early stages of Act 1.

You can equip it to your character’s weapon slot in the inventory, providing additional bonuses and buffs. The user needs Martial Weapon proficiency or suffers penalties while wearing the weapon. You can equip it on any class, companion, or character that has Martial Weapon proficiency.
