The Eldritch Invocations in Baldur’s Gate 3 unlock at levels 2,5,7,12. Since there are so many invocations to choose from, we have created a list of the best Baldur’s Gate 3 Eldritch Invocations in our opinion.
10. Minion of Chaos
The Minion of Chaos is a level 9 Eldritch Invocation, that lets players cast Conjure Elemental spell. While Warlocks can’t normally conjure elementals, the Minion of Chaos invocation allows them to do that. The spell summons an Elemental Creature; a minion. The minion helps you in your combat, dealing damage to the opponents and it can be spawned in 18m of distance.
9. Fiendish Vigor
Fiendish Vigor unlocks at level 2. This Invocation enables the warlock to cast a False Life Spell. The spell increases the health of Warlock from 7-12 hp. This is not much but in tricky situations, it can become useful, and using the Fiendish Vigor invocation will prevent you Warlock to get down. Also, the spell will not take any Spell slot.
8. Mask of Many Faces
Unlocking at level 2, The Mask of Many Faces buffs the Disguise Spell that you can equip. There are many situations during the dialogues that can get better if you had a different race or gender. This Spell transforms you to another race or gender to get you that better option during the conversation.
Without Mask of Many Faces Eldritch Invocation in BG3, you would have to use a spell slot if you want to change your appearance. The spell last until your long rest.
7. Mire the Mind
This Eldritch Invocation unlocks at level 5. The Invocation allows you to use the Slow Spell arguably one the best debuff spell. The spell targets 3x Enemies and slows them down. The enemies will miss the attacks and you will have a greater chance to deal great damage to them. The Invocation is great if you deal with a larger number of enemies.
6. Book of Ancient Secrets
Book of Ancient Secrets invocation unlocks at level 7 and allows players to cast 3 spells without having them prepared beforehand. Whenever you use the Book of Ancient Secrets in BG3, you are given the option to cast Chromatic Orb, Ray of Sickness or Silence. So it is an invocation that basically works as 3 different spells.
Unfortunately, Book of Ancient Secrets Eldritch Invocation in BG3 can only be used once per long rest.
5. Armor of Shadows
The Warlocks don’t have that much resistance and it does not take much to defeat one. To save you from the situation comes the Armor of Shadow, unlocking at level 2. The Eldritch Invocation buffs the Mage Armor Spell and you will be able to use it without taking any spell slot. Since the Warlock does not have that many Spell slots, it is a pretty useful Invocation.
4. Sculpture of Flesh

The Eldritch Invocation is quite powerful as the Warlock can learn abilities or equip certain weapons or armor of other players. You can also transform powerful opponents into weaker or smaller things. This can help you take down dominant enemies.
