If you are dead set on including a character in your party, simply talk to Withers to respec them to one of the optimal Rogue companion classes listed above. This way, you won't miss out on that character's questline, and you won't have to suffer from an improperly balanced party.

Collect The Protecty Sparkswall clothing from Grymforge in Act 1 for a bonus to Spell Save DCs and a boost to AC while you have lightning charges, which pairs well with The Spellsparkler Staff. If taking fighter or cleric levels, or playing as a race with inherent shield proficiency, players should also collect The Real Sparky Sparkswall (shield) at Grymforge for even more AC (this unfortunately cannot stack with the Bracers of Defense, but the synergy with lightning charges makes it worthwhile regardless.) Shield users can also get the Shield of Devotion from Talli in Act 2, gaining an extra level 1 spell slot and the ability to cast Aid once per long rest. In Act 3, players can swap this for the Shield of the Undevout or Viconia's Walking Fortress instead.

Because of the extra Bonus Action, Thief Rogues can virtually always remain Stealthed, or Dash/Disengage to get away with their Cunning Action. Thief Rogues also gain resistance to Fall damage , which comes in handy more often than one might think.

Metamagic lets Warlocks use Quickened Spell and Twinned Spell to great effect, adding additional Eldritch Blast casts or damage, and opening up the potential for a Warlock to double-cast spells like Haste.

The next piece of the puzzle is inside the Gauntlet of Shar, in the form of the Callous Glow Ring. This Ring can be found in the Vault Room, where Balthazar is found, and will cause attacks against illuminated targets to deal two extra radiant damage. This is a small but effective boost that will allow attacks that don't usually deal Radiant Damage to trigger the Luminous Armor and Gloves.

The Nature Domain grants the Cleric abilities suited to one who wields the power of the natural world, drawing some parallels to the Druid class in the process. This begins at level one with the Domain Spells "Speak with Animals" and "Animal Friendship," allowing them to speak clearly with animals and charm them into not attacking.

In addition to everything you unlock while leveling as a Warlock, your Subclass also determines what you unlock at certain levels. As a Warlock, you can select a subclass at Level 1, in the character creation menu.

Savage Attacks lets players add an additional Damage Dice on top of their normal critical hit damage, but only with melee weapon attacks. Relentless Endurance prevents the Fighter from going down, restoring them to 1 HP upon reaching 0, only once per long rest.

This section covers the best equipment for Battle Master Fighters in BG3 across all three Acts. Some pieces from early Acts may still be powerful in later ones, though, and will remain equipped through several Acts.

The Half-Orc race comes with a few notable racial abilities that help the best BG3 Fighter build become even more powerful and resilient. The race comes with Darkvision, and proficiency in Intimidation, but its real draw for Fighters comes from the Savage Attacks and Relentless Endurance passive features.

When players defeat Enver Gortash in Wyrm’s Rock Fortress, they’re able to loot Fabricated Arbalest from his corpse. At first glance, this Very Rare Heavy Crossbow has the typical arsenal of Special Actions from its weapon type, particularly Piercing Shot and Brace. However, its Rarity is earned through its Dazzling Ray and Illuminating Shot Acti

At level one, a Life Domain Cleric gains "Cure Wounds" and "Bless" as Domain spells, which are automatically and always prepared when resting. They also get proficiency with Heavy Armor to strengthen their defenses.

Among ranged weapons players can encounter in Baldur’s Baldur's Gate 3 Performances 3 , the Longbow +2 is perhaps a must-have for any character who wants to dominate long-distance combat. This weapon’s only setback is its acquisition before the final fight in the game’s story, particularly when looted from the Darkening Hunt if a Ranger is in the player’s party. However, players who want a safe weapon to use in the game’s perilous final battle, the Longbow +2 can become a nifty secondary armament that may be more dependable compared to other effect-heavy varia

The Bladesinging subclass initially grants Wizards proficiency in light armor and the performance skill, along with daggers, longswords, shortswords, rapiers, scimitars, and sickles. This allows them to fight much more effectively on the front lines, and also grants them special spellcasting animations when using these weapons. They also receive the Bladesong ability, which allows them to boost their Armor Class and Saving Throws by their proficiency bonus. This makes them much more durable, and it also allows them to generate Bladesong Charges.
