Have you ever felt like you're making the locals uncomfortable by brandishing your weapon? Fear not! We'll guide you through the process of sheathing your weapon in Baldur's Gate 3 to ensure you maintain proper social decorum.

How to Sheath Your Weapon

In Baldur's Gate 3, there's a slight twist when it comes to sheathing your weapon. Unlike Larian's other title, Divinity: Original Sin 2, the townsfolk here don't really mind if you stroll around with your weapon unsheathed. However, if you're still eager to put it away, there's a quick and easy hotkey for doing so – just press the "U" key.

Should you find yourself unable to utilize the hotkey, perhaps due to a reconfiguration, the alternative method is to unequip your weapon and then re-equip it.

With this knowledge, you'll be able to navigate Baldur's Gate 3 with a more refined sense of social grace. Happy adventuring!
