Baldur s Gate 3: Best Fighter Class Build

From Prophet of AI


At level three, Trickery Domain Clerics gain "Mirror Image" and "Pass Without Trace" as Domain Spells, allowing them to increase their AC with illusory clones and give the entire party a +10 bonus to their stealth checks. At this point, the Trickery Domain allows players to make their entire party better at evading notice and can be a fantastic support caster both in and out of combat.


The Shadow Magic Sorcerer has a unique multiclassing interaction with the Spectres summoned by a Hexblade Warlock. By moving your Shadow Mastiff close to a Spectre, it will gain access to their "Right Behind You" ability, allowing it to teleport to any target its Sorcerer has marked with Hexblade's Curse. This would require a 6/6 level split between the two classes to take advantage of, but could be very effective on a build specialising in shadow summ

Druids gain several Wild Shape options as they level up, and Circle of the Moon builds get even more . For the first five levels as a Druid, the best Wild Shape transformation is the Bear, then the Raven. But at Level 6, Druids learn how to transform into an Owlbear, which is the most powerful Wild Shape form for the rest of the game.


Players who choose a White Dragon as their Draconic Ancestry will learn Armor of Agathys as an additional first level spell, while a Silver Dragon will instead grant Feather Fall . At level 6, they will gain resistance to cold damage and a boost to cold damage de

Karlach : Best suited for the Berserker subclass, Karlach is capable of dealing some of the most consistent, highest-hitting melee attacks on her own, and with two supports you won't be at a loss for HP or dispels

However, depending on how you like to play your Druid, the Outlander background might feel more fitting. This background grants proficiency in Athletics and Survival instead of Animal Handling and Survival, and Athletics can be very useful in combat.

The Folk Hero background grants proficiency in Animal Handling and Survival, and will trigger Inspiration for your character naturally as a Druid. Being a Folk hero provides the most RP opportunities and Inspiration possibilities as a Circle of the Moon druid because it just requires players to do things most good-aligned Druids would do, like help animals, save others, and explore the wilderness.

Add the Luminous Armor and Blood of Lathander to create Radiant Shockwaves, blasting anyone near the Druid with a shockwave that applies radiant orbs whenever the Druid deals radiant damage, and allowing the Druid to cast Sunbeam once per long rest. The Mace will also heal the Druid and allies within 9m/30ft if they take damage that would cause them to become downed, once per long rest, helping to keep them on their feet if the enemy starts targeting them. Until Act Baldur's Gate 3 beginner guide, you'll want to equip them with Wapira's Crown to give them self-healing whenever they use Chalice Heal. Grab the Shapeshifter Hat during Act 3 to get extra Wildshape Charges, and they'll be able to utilize their Starry Forms even more often between Long Rests.

Either buy the Winter's Clutches Gloves from Lady Esther on the Monastary Trail or obtain them from the quest "Avenging Glut's Circle", and then pick up the Snowburst Ring from under a loose floorboard in the last-Light Inn during act 2. These will inflict "Encrusted with Frost" when the wearer deals cold damage and create a patch of ice whenever the wearer deals cold damage with a spell, respectively. Head for Balthazar's Chambers in Moonrise and pick up the Coldbrim Hat too, causing all spell conditions inflicted to also apply two turns of Encrusted with Frost (but only to one target and only once per turn). This will allow the Cleric even more utility in Crowd Control by freezing enemies solid.
At level eight, War Clerics get "Divine Strike: Warmaster," which allows them to add extra slashing damage to an attack. Level nine finishes off their Domain Spells with "Flame Strike" and "Hold Monster." This provides them with a powerful targeted strike of radiant and fire damage and allows them to freeze a creature in place.

Their other leveling choices make them both a controlling force in melee combat and a powerful support from a distance, though most of one's time should be spent on maximizing damage output while in Wild Shape.

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.

The Circle of Stars Druid pairs very nicely with the Light Domain Cleric, taking advantage of Warding Flare to avoid incoming attacks and Radiance of the Dawn to fire off a Radiant Damage AOE. Mixing in two levels of Fighter for Action Surge and access to a wider range of weapons and armor is also a great option, allowing you to cast multiple spells in a single turn.
