The die players are given to roll for skill checks in Baldur’s Gate 3 don’t actually take up any space in your inventory. Instead it’ll pop up any time a player chooses a dialogue option that requires a skill or train of some kind. Modifiers to your dice roll will depend on things such as what skills you’re focusing on, situational occurrences, and more. And in order to customize your plain jane die, you’ll need to actually get to a roll screen first.

Players will be able to change their dice skin before they roll during a skill check. When the screen pops up where you can see your die and it wants you to go ahead and roll it, don’t. You’ll want to look in the bottom left of the screen and there should be a purple hexagon logo. Select the logo, and you can choose any of your currently unlocked dice skins. If you were able to snag the digital deluxe edition, you’ll have the option of choosing a Dragonflame Red die. Furthermore if you shelled out the big bucks for the collector’s edition, you’ll get another exclusive die skin, matching the oversized real-life one you’ll now own as well.
