At level three, Life Domain Clerics gain the spells "Lesser Restoration" and "Aid" as domain spells. This allows the Cleric to remove diseases and conditions and temporarily increase their allies' HP and maximum HP. At level 5 they gain "Revivify" and "Beacon of Hope" as Domain spells. "Revivify" allows them to raise dead party members, while Beacon of Hope will maximize healing received in an area while also granting advantage on wisdom saving throws and death saving throws.
At Levels 2, 5, 7, 9, and 11, Rogues don't have any leveling choices to make. But because the class can learn four Feats, the choices that you do make while leveling this BG3 Rogue build matter a lot more. The table below displays recommended choices to make at each level-up that will synergize well with the stealthy Thief subclass playstyle.
This section covers the best equipment for Thief Rogues 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.
There are a total of seven BG3 Circles (subclasses) Druid players can try out, each of which focuses on different aspects of the class, and offers a selection of unique skills, proficiencies, and other features. As you level up in one of these BG3 Druid subclasses, you will gain more abilities that are unique to your subclass choice.
Each of Baldur's Gate 3 's classes has different abilities and skills to aid them in exploration and combat. The Cleric class is a divine spellcaster who wield magic in the service of their god. Each of the Cleric Subclasses reflects a domain their god has dominion over, and grants the Cleric unique abilities relating to that domain.
Many builds in Baldur's Gate 3 are based on a single subclass or mechanic of a class, and in the Druid's case, this is the Circle of the Moon subclass and its enhancements to the class' intrinsic Wild Shape ability.
The Glowing Shield , found hidden away in the Goblin Camp, provides temporary HP the first time the wielder takes damage while below half health. This makes for an excellent early shield, but players should endeavor to replace it with something like the Adamantine Shield once they are able (this can be forged during Act 1 at the Adamantine Forge.) The Adamantine Shield provides immunity to critical hits and inflicts the Reeling status effect on enemies when they miss. To further strengthen this subclass' defense, players should collect the Luminous set to take advantage of Radiant Orbs. This set consists of the Luminous Armor, Luminous Gloves , Coruscation Ring , Callous Glow Ring , The Sacred Star (Mace), and the Fabricated Arbalest . The Armor of Devotion (sold by Roah Moonglow in Moonrise Towers during Act 2) is also useful as it allows the Paladin to regain an Oath Charge once per long rest, allowing you to use Sacred Weapon, Divine Rebuke, and Turn the Unholy more often.
In Baldur's Gate 3 , the player's choice of character class is arguably the most important decision they make. Each class provides different abilities and utility when exploring the world and engaging in combat. One such class is the Fighter , who begins the game with the ability to wield any weapon and wear any armor.
At the character creation screen and again at Level 6, Rogues get to choose two extra skills to gain Expertise in, for a total of four. Expertise is a little bit different than just being Proficient in a skill.
Wyll : A Fiend Warlock, Wyll's spell list is somewhat limited compared to Gale, being a Warlock comes with its own benefits. Play Wyll as a hybrid of both ranged damage and ranged control, inflicting CC on enemies as often as you attack them
In Baldur's Gate 3 , some classes don't have many choices to make while leveling thanks to the lack of spells, like the Rogue or Monk. Warlocks are not like other spellcasters in BG3 because they have limited spell slots that refresh every short rest instead of long one, and are mostly reliant on Cantrips which can be empowered with Eldritch Invocations.
The Thief Rogue build is based on the Thief subclass that grants an additional Bonus Action in combat, which is ridiculously useful for getting into and out of stealth . Considering how completely busted Stealth is in Baldur's Gate 3 , even with the chances from Early Access, Thief Rogues are sure to dominate damage-wise.
Updated April 6, 2025 by Erik Petrovich : Patch 8 for baldur's gate 3 psion Gate 3 is right around the corner, and though lots of the new subclasses seem like a lot of fun to play, the base game still offers some very powerful options for the best Cleric build in BG3. The Life Domain Cleric is still the best Cleric build in BG3 – but that could change with the release of Patch 8. Until then, stick with this Life Domain Cleric guide to learn the best Cleric build tips, what makes the Life Domain such a powerful subclass for the Cleric, and other information that will help you min-max your Cleric character. This Cleric build guide has been updated to add in-game flavor descriptions of the class and subclass, as well as a new small section with the best consumables for the Cleric, including both potions and elixirs, in the Equipment section.
