There are a number of equippable magic objects that may be discovered all through the world of Baldur's Gate 3. Most of these things is not going to considerably have an effect on the participant aside from figuring out the bonuses they obtain. It's uncommon for a participant to search out any piece of armor that adjustments the complete course of their sport, though there are a number of examples, such because the Whispering Masks that causes the wearer to show hostile.
Initially, gamers might discover a magical merchandise with the potential to change the course of the sport's essential quest, "Discover a treatment." This was rewarded by a relatively hidden NPC interplay that many gamers most likely didn't assume twice about. The merchandise's unique goal was eliminated after early entry, however there's nonetheless an fascinating dialogue about what it might have been.
Omeluum's ring was initially going to play a extra vital position within the participant's ceremorphosis
Omeluum might supply the participant a distinct ring, which might halt the event of the Thoughts Flayer parasite
Omeluum is a thoughts flayer, and gamers can first discover themselves within the Myconid Colony within the first act of Baldur's Gate 3 speaking to Blurg. As proven in a video of ContentMiner on YouTube, Blurg will name Omeluum to check the participant's tadpole upon studying concerning the participant's parasite. This begins the "Assist Omeluum examine the parasite" questline, which can at all times result in a useless finish the place the impact of the participant's parasite is definitely elevated - so, in an try to calm him down, Omeluum will give the participant one " 
Ring of Mental Protection
"for a value.
This ring had a distinct title in early entry, particularly " 
Ring of Psionic Protection
." This ring would successfully silence the participant's tadpole, stopping them from utilizing any Illithid talents and stunting their tadpole's development. Nevertheless, regardless of the dialog seemingly main within the course of how the ring works, the ring of psychological safety is not going to have any main influence on the participant, nor will it do something to their parasite.
It's possible that this ring was extra associated to the unique dream keeper plot. As a substitute of being the Emperor in disguise, they have been initially going to be a very separate character known as "Daisy." The dream guardian was not a acutely aware entity and represented the tadpole's affect, encouraging the participant to stick with them without end in a dream realm whereas their physique turned a thoughts flayer. It's possible that this ring would have positioned a cease the participant's desires concerning the guardian or it could have had some fascinating impact.
Within the present sport, Embracing thoughts flayer powers leads to no disadvantages to the participant exterior of imprecise implications or potential occasions within the epilogue in the event that they resolve to go full Illithid. That is most likely why the operate of this ring has been modified, as there's much less risk to the participant by preserving their parasite; It's potential that extra content material associated or just like Daisy was deliberate to point out its opposed results. Moreover, whereas his morality can actually be debated, the Emperor acts extra as a real information; having the ring probably interfering with desires might complicate the plot.
As one other Rogue Mindflayer, Omeluum's character had quite a lot of potential
Regardless of being Illithid, Omeluum is the other of the emperor
It's comprehensible why this a part of the story was lower. Omeluum is a secondary character and it wouldn't be value preserving the ring's unique goal when it might battle with the Emperor's plot. Assuming the thoughts flayer parasite triggered extra disadvantages to the participant, the ring might have served as a approach for gamers to again out of their earlier selections if they'd modified their stance in utilizing them.
It's nonetheless fascinating to assume that Omeluum might have performed an even bigger position within the story. Though the dialogue reveals that he needs to remain as distant from the older mind as potential, it most likely means gamers would by no means be capable of use Omeluum to take over the mind with out siding with the Emperor or Orpheusremains to be one of many solely characters who can really sympathize with the participant's wrestle towards Ceremorphosis. The one different time gamers encounter Omeluum in BG3 takes place throughout and after saving him from the Iron Throne, implying that he had the same significance to Ulder Ravengard.
Omeluum could be thought of a counterpoint to the Emperor, each are thoughts flayers gone rogue, however Omeluum encourages the participant to rid themselves of their parasite, whereas the Emperor encourages them to embrace it and tune into their Illithid potential. The Emperor can be recognized to make use of others for his personal profit, even killing his greatest good friend, Ansur, to save lots of his personal. In the meantime, on the Iron Throne, Omeluum will encourage saving Duke Ravengard over himself. Maybe it might have been deliberate that Omeluum's assist to the participant would trigger tensions with the Emperor.
Many characters within the sport could by no means have reached their full potential; for instance, Minthara lacks substance in comparison with the remainder of the companions. Nevertheless, with or with out the additional story he might have had, Omeluum is a really compelling character. With Baldur's Gate 3 By having a plot so closely centered round thoughts flayers, Omeluum might have served a a lot higher goal, however maybe it could be higher thematically to point out the thoughts flayers with the ability to dwell regular lives away from the drama of the primary plot.
