INQUISITOR, Baldur's Gate 2


Inquisitor BG2


Inquisitor is a BG2 class in BioWare's cRPG of 2000, Baldur's Gate 2. What makes Inquisitors extremely powerful is their innate Dispel Magic and True Sight modal abilities.


Inquisitor Dispel Magic & True Sight


Quick-fire Dispel Magic BG2 cast at 2x character level breaks cRPG combat encounter design vs. enemy spellcasters. Thus, players don't need to learn how to beat enemy Mage BG2 with their own Mages, aka Mage duels: they simply cast True Sight BG2 to bring them into view, dispel their protections and then hack them to pieces. Yay, for tactics!

As it pertains to game balance, the Inquisitor is quite possibly the dumbest and most thoughtless class in cRPG History. It is also a BG2 overrated class.

SCS BG2 can nerf Inquisitor dispel to 1.5x or 1x Inquisitor level.

Note that Keldorn BG2 is an Inquisitor.
