Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Help Tips & Tricks True Strike = Waste of Effort (or...how does one use it well?)

I can only think of 3 major use-cases off the top of my head

1) If you're opening up combat with a surprise attack (likely ranged), you can cast true strike the turn before combat to make sure you hit.

2) If we're talking about using it in combat, it can be useful for a Sorcerer that can quicken it as a bonus action. Maybe sometimes a Rogue will want to True Strike if it's the only way they can get sneak attack, and their sneak attack bonus is big enough to justify losing 1x attack.

3) You simply don't have line of sight this turn and don't want to use your action to dash (maybe you're camping a defensible location and waiting for enemy to approach), I guess then it lets your current turn action do something.
