How to Beat the Githyanki Inquisitor
When players have mercy on their Dream Guardian and decide not to kill them while in Astral Prism, the Githyanki Inquisitor will be waiting for themwith his Githyanki minionsready to fight. In general, the actions required to kill Ch’r’ai W’wargaz will depend on the party with which players enter the battle, but below is a list of more general tips on how the battle can be won with ease:
Dealing with the Inquisitor’s Lackeys
The first thing players need to do to deal with the Inquisitor’s minions is totake down the Raider, as it has a fairly high single-target damage move that can kill some characters in one turn. In addition, it is necessary todistract the Warriorby using the tank’s commando and then take care of the ranged attackers before they shoot all the party members.

Features of the Githyanki Race
Another thing that players should pay attention to when fighting the Githyanki Inquisitor and his minions is their race’s features, such as the ability toresist mental effects and spells. For example, there isGithyanki Parry, which reduces damage from unarmed or weapon attacks by 10. It will require gamers to concentrate all attacks of their companions that have Extra Attack on one Githyanki that has already used this ability in their turn.
There is alsothe Psionic Revenge ability, which allows this hostile race to deal 1d4 psychic damage to anyone who attacks the creature when it makes a successful Saving Throw. In addition, this ability gives Githyanki +1 to all mental (Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma) Saving Throws.
The Githyanki Inquisitor Fight
One of the biggest difficulties in beating the Inquisitor is its Mindsteal Link ability. Using this feature, W’wargaz will connect with all nearby creatures, giving him +1 Armor Class for each one and taking 2 Armor Class away from all of them.
In addition, with this power, the Inquisitor will gain 1d4 psychic damage for each person around him and will also make all those connected to him vulnerable to psychic damage. To weaken the Mindsteal Link, players should avoid adding Ranger, Warlock familiars, Guardian of Faith, andNecromancers as companionsfrom which W’wargaz can draw additional Armor Class. To end each of the Mindsteal Link connections, players must either kill the Githyanki that are bound to the Inquisitor or damage it with a companion connected to it.
Baldur’s Gate 3is available now on PC and PS5. An Xbox Series X/S version is currently in development.
