Lol this was me just the other day in Baldur's Gate 3. I got an ability on my Cleric that I could only use ONCE in an entire playthrough. "Yeah I'm going to save this for the final encounter". Ended up forgetting about it and not using it at all at the end of the game haha.
To be honest a single use ability sounds stupid.
It's actually a really cool ability. It's extremely powerful and can turn the tide of a difficult fight in an instant if used correctly. I just have a habit of always telling myself to save powerful abilities and items until I forget about them and beat the game without ever using them. If you are interested, the spell is called "Divine Intervention" from Baldur's gate 3 and D&D 5e.
It's an ability called Divine Intervention that allows you to call upon your God to choose from: have an instant long rest (resurrecting all fallen companions in the process), get a legendary weapon, a chest full of potions and supplies, or deal a huge AOE of radiant damage. You get it at level 10, max level is 12.
It's one time use because in D&D it can only be used again after 7 days if it works, while it works perfectly every time in bg3.
It makes more sense than it sounds
I used it during a particularly difficult encounter only to learn that those enemies reflected Holy damage -_- instantly killed that character
I know exactly what encounter you are referring to and almost made the exact same mistake. Thankfully I read the enemy buffs before I used it lol.
I did that with the character you can rescue during that quest
Arm thy servant (I think it's called) is the best one. Gives you a weapon that you keep.
