Withers can be found at your camp after you have progressed in the game or you can fast-track Withers appearing by finding him in the final section of the Dank Crypt dungeon.

If you are struggling to find Withers in your camp, he looks a bit like a zombie and I think also akin to a Draugr from Skyrim — if you have played through that. To Respec, simply speak to Withers and pay the 100 gold pieces fee to begin. After you pay up, you can Respec your character and change your class, ability setup, spells, and anything else you desire from the menu. You can respec throughout the game whenever you feel like it.

Is There Anything I Can’t Respec in Baldur’s Gate 3?

You will not be able to change your race or appearance at Withers in Baldur’s Gate 3. This means that the choices you make in the character creation are vitally important and shouldn’t be rushed through.

For the time being, you can focus on the respec of elements like your class in Baldur’s Gate 3.
