Oathbreaking might sound like the worst thing a Paladin can do in Baldur’s Gate 3, but the features that it brings to the forefront indicate that the game might just want players to walk a little on the wild side.

Like any mere mortal, however, a Paladin can fall from grace, and doing so doesn’t mean that they will lose out on spiritual power in combat.
