Common Challenges
The adamantine longsword in BG3 is a formidable weapon, but it’s not without its drawbacks. Its high base damage is offset by its heavy weight, which can slow you down in combat. Additionally, its lack of elemental damage types makes it less effective against certain enemies.
Innovative Solutions
To mitigate the weight issue, consider using the Longsword Mastery feat, which reduces the penalty to movement speed when wielding a longsword. To enhance its damage output, enchant the longsword with a magical property, such as the Frost enchantment, which adds cold damage to each attack.
