Summary
Not all gear found inBaldur’s Gate 3will look magical on certain characters, as some players have found out just how bizarre the leather helmet actually looks on the Dragonborn race.Baldur’s Gate 3is one of the greatest RPGs to be released in 2023, and this has been mirrored in the countless awards it has received since. With a phenomenal cast of interesting and unique companions that pair perfectly alongside the main story of the game, players love nothing more than diving into its fantasy world, which is based on the fifth edition of the popular tabletop game,Dungeons & Dragons.
Enthusiastic roleplayers can select between twelve differentBaldur’s Gate 3classesand customize them with a variety of subclasses for thrilling combat situations, depending on the player’s style. Each class has unique armor or weapons that it is proficient in, but some gear found withinBaldur’s Gate 3’s world certainly doesn’t seem to suit every character and can actually look quite ridiculous.
In the game, the Dragonborn, a humanoid reptile, is one of eleven races that players can choose during character creation. Most notably, it’s the default race if players pickBaldur’s Gate 3’s Dark Urge origin. On Reddit,Baldur’s Gate 3players have been discussing how weird the leather helmet looks on the Dragonborn character due to how awkwardly the headgear sits on its rather large head adorned with spikes and horns. Players point out that due to the barbs that Dragonborns have on the back or side of their skulls, this particular piece of gear does absolutely nothing for its tough and menacing demeanor.
Dragonborns and Leather Helmets Do Not Mix
It’s easy to see why players want Dragonborn characters to have betterBaldur’s Gate 3armor combosthat evoke the might of their draconic bloodline, rather than looking like someone has slapped a piece of old leather onto their heads. One player in the comments said, “From the front, it almost looks like a strange, elaborate headdress. From the side, it looks like a bra." Another commenter stated that the leather helmet made the Dragonborn look like Olenna Tyrell fromGame of Thrones.
For players who would still like to see their Dragonborn don the weird leather helmet, the item can be found just offBaldur’s Gate 3’s Risen Road, north of the Ravaged Beach during the early hours of the game. Leather helmets can also be purchased from traders and merchants in exchange for gold or looted from barrels, chests, and other forms of storage in the game.
