<br>At eleventh level, you gain Mighty Swarm, which increases the bonus damage from the Swarm's damage effect to 1d8 of the appropriate damage type.

The Circle of Spores also synergizes well with the Monk, allowing players to brawl in melee and improve their AC using their Wisdom, which will already be pretty high since it's the Druid's spellcasting stat. Fighter and Ranger are both excellent multiclass choices too, offering Extra Attack at level 5 to dish out more Necrotic Damage while using Symbiotic Entity. Ranger synergizes slightly better due to also providing additional spell slots.

Charlatan (Deception, Sleight of Hand): Possessing a special knack for twisting their words, Charlatans can make allies turn on each other for profit and amusement. Their Deception Proficiency allows them to fool others, while Sleight of Hand makes thieving easier.

Unlike other Classes in Dungeons & Dragons , the Bard of Baldur’s Gate 3 cannot pick a subclass or an archetype until Level 3. This time called a Bard College practically "cements" the Bard’s specialization throughout the game. Depending on the player’s choice of role, the Bard may be tailored to become a healer via the College of Lore, a combat expert via the College of Valor, or a fighting specialist via the College of Swords. Here are things to take note of:

While the Blood of Lathander remains an ideal weapon for the Devotion Paladin, this is a good time to pick up a better shield. Viconia's Walking Fortress, a legendary shield wielded by Viconia DeVir during the quest "Daughter of Darkness", is a truly stunning option for a tanky Paladin. It grants advantage on all saving throws against spells, gives all spell attack rolls against you disadvantage, and allows you to blast enemies who strike you back with a wave of force. On top of all this, it also allows you to cast Warding Bond once per long rest and the unique "Reflective Shell" once per short rest. Reflective Shell returns all projectiles to their point of origin for 2 turns, and is activated as a bonus action.

Act 3 offers some incredibly powerful weapons and items for a Vengeance Paladin. If you're using a two-handed weapon to maximize your damage, you could pick up Balduran's Giantslayer from the Dragon's Sanctum. This incredible sword doubles the bonus damage granted by your Strength Modifier whenever it connects, while also allowing you to increase in size (gaining temporary hitpoints, boosted damage, and advantage on Strength Checks and Saving Throws) once per short rest. If you're playing as a Githyanki, or respecced Lae'zel into a Vengeance Paladin, then the Silver Sword of the Astral Plane is also a good choice. It grants additional psychic damage on hit while also providing advantage on Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma Saving Throws. It also gives resistance to psychic damage, immunity to the "Charmed" status, and the special attack "Soulbreaker" to stun enemies.

The Oath of Devotion Paladin can make good use of the Reaper's Embrace Armor acquired at the end of Act 2 if they want to trade some of the Luminous Gear for more defensive power. Assuming Dammon the Blacksmith survived all the way to Act 3 , you can also buy the "Armor of Persistence" from him, which grants permanent resistance and Blade Ward while reducing all incoming damage by 2. Of course, the Helldusk Armor from the House of Hope can also be a good option for defense-focused loadouts. It is worth noting that the Luminous Armor remains a viable option all the way to the endgame if you want to focus more on the Luminous Orb strategy over raw defensive power.
