InBaldur’s Gate 3, those infected with Mind Flayer Tadpoles, such as your Tav and Origin Companions, have the ability to unlock and utilizeIllithid Powers. These can be anything from combat actions to passive buffs, reactions, and even toggleable bonuses. While players have the freedom to unlock their choice of Illithid Powers through a skill tree-like brain system, depending on the Class and Subclass that you have chosen, some options tend to synergize better with others.
