How To Use True Strike In BG3
True Strike is best used to ensure a critical hit on an attack, especially in situations where landing that hit is vital. The spell requires concentration, which means you must maintain focus to keep the spell active. If concentration is broken (e.g., if the caster takes damage), the effect is lost.
True Strike is useful for characters who need to ensure their next attack hits, particularly when using powerful spells or abilities that consume significant resources. For instance, Rogues can use True Strike to guarantee a hit with their sneak attack, and Sorcerers can use it to make sure their high-damage spells land.
