Sorry stupid question and it may be answered later on in the video but if your primary damage source is EB, why would you waste extra points on quickened spell rather than just twinspelling?

So spam the same thing the entire time sounds fun

this build and your gloomstalker build .. gave me my golden dices ... THANK YOU ... make more plc

Why use gloom stalker instead of just going pure assassin rogue?

Neat. Gonna have to try this one sounds fun

If you have to chose Dark Urge as the face character in order to get all the gear, and especially the cape, how can you change the background of Dark Urge in character creation ? It's stuck to "haunted", preventing you from chosing a better one. What didn't I understand ?? Please help me !!!

What about the Bonespike Gloves? Ignores all physical resistances, which would be a lot of enemies. And the final build gear, how are you overcoming the Encumbrance/Movement penalty without the Club of Hill Giant Strength?

There is any explanation on why the tempest wizard beter than the tempest + drake sorcerer? Since you can add your charisma to every lignting dmg and quiken or twin the lightning spells

Frustration..... Manages to get the quill cutscene. Now when I get to last light, I collect the quest, I go to free the thieflings, Everyone survives except Lakrissa.... When I talk to Alfira to collect the Robe she only gives me 450 GOLD..... There goes my 32 hour of fun play...

i realised not going durge and getting the potent robe makes your sorlock way strionger by act 2 and your gloomstalker wont miss that cloak that much

I took few levels in warlock for devils sight :D

Just had to pop in to say the DOLOR edit was a thing of beauty. If the guide wasn't good that alone would have earned you the subscribe. But it was. Keep up the good work.

What other weapons do you recomend since ill be using shadow blade and knife of the undermountain king for another character? Thanks

why not simply use 4 archers? you will have more damage

Karlach is definitely better than Astarian (pre-ascension) due to Soul Coins. They’re twice as good as they say they are

I don’t see it much of anywhere, but you trigger the Alfira/Quinn scene after making it to the blighted village. Get the waypoint there, fast travel back to the grove, knock Alfira out and long rest, it’ll give you the scene.

I’m trying a version of this out based on your video and having so much fun. I would absolutely love it if you could make a team darkness video. I know it would be the strongest but I would love suggestions for how to get most or all of the team in on the darkness fun. Maybe a dark Shadowheart and something with warlock for devils sight?

Does charisma or wisdom make my paladin smites and spells stronger? Is it the same for warlock, bard, sorcerer, etc?

How do you get 10 Blood Lusts? Even with a camp alchemist at most I'm having 2-4 at a time.

Now I can’t wait for your wizard video. Since I found your channel I have a hard time watching anyone else’s guides.

Pardon my ignorance I’m still new to this game as a whole despite knowing about a few things I’ve either learned via resources like this and just learning things on my own through the first almost complete playthrough, got a good ways through act 3 but then stopped playing it completely outright and then came back about a month or so ago but started a fresh playthrough because I was able to start modding the game, but what is the reason for wanting to respec after a certain point in multiclass builds, specifically to just simply switch the order of what your starting class of your multiclass is? Do you only get the proficiency bonuses of the base class when you multiclass and not both? Because up to this point I was led to believe that didn’t really matter, I thought all the proficiencies stacked in a multiclass build

You easily have the best bg3 build guides. I was a little shocked your channel wasn’t gigantic. The most useful information presented in the most helpful and entertaining way. Hope you make lots of guides. Cheers!

I can confirm, as of this post in patch 7, you can knock-out Alfira and kill Quill instead, that you can obtain both the Deathstalker Mantle and allow Alfira to progress to act 2 and obtain the robes there as well.

I personally think tanks are good but not your high AC tanks that npcs will avoid hitting no a low AC high HP and lots of resistance that deals deals damage when hit and when missed through gear and abilities you run around the battlefield creating attacks of opportunity on yourself and hit back with a healing sword negating their damage with the right gear and class you are unkillable and everything tries to hit you because of your low ac leaving your glass canons hit hard it also gets online at level 3 which is incredibly early

Is this balatro music

If you play as a Githyanki, you get Medium Armor proficiency for free. Saves you a feat so you can get an early extra Dex ASI instead

God bless you

WHAT WILL HAPPENS IF I FORGOT ABOUT ALFIRA AND KILL HER? PLEASE TELL ME THAT I CAN USE AN ALTERNATIVE?

Liked for the Deus Ex OST.

Amazing build but I disegree about one point. I think the best is to choose warlock instead of sorcerer first because constitution saving throws is only good when you have to focus on spells. However with this build, we just want to blast and then the constitution saving throws is pretty useles. I prefer getting wisdom saving throws with warlock instead because it helps against most of spells in game

should’ve used bhaalist armour for piercing vulnerability=2x damage arrows, USE titanstring bow with hill/cloud giant strenght

Here is my take: 1- If you are aiming for lvl 18 dex, Gloves of Dexterity grants that and you can get from lvl 1. So you can dump Dex as well 2- One level in either barb or monk adds yor Con or Wis bonus to AC, so you can ditch Heavy Armor 3- The Graceful Cloth (That you also gets on Act 1) gives advantage to all Dex checks. That includes Initiative Rolls 4- Hand Crossbows can be equiped on the main hand and the off hand. That is one extra attack.

I’m curious as to what the second feat is for the tempest wizard. Is it just another ASI?

I think 11 fire Draconic sorc/1 fiend warlock is just better than everything here for the most part.

best companions to use with this build?

It is all so darn complicated and frustrating.... Why do I use my Christmas to ruin my head whit all these!

How does this perform against a ray of frost sorcerer doing basically the same thing?

Mod for consoles and pc now to get rid of the ugly look

Listen chat tbh just go for wtv it’s all about sustainability and out smarting the game

Best build guide I've seen, and my favourite build, I really want to give it a try

14:25 I'd say oath of vengence is the weakest pick of the three choose-able subclasses. Oath of the ancients being easily the best. You're costing a bonus action to do +2 radiant damage with attacks for the turn and one turn after. While giving up the bonus action attack to do it. So you're at absolute max, with flourishes, doing +18 damage without crits; while realistically you're going to get maybe get probably ~+8, which is what you'd get by just attacking with the offhand weapon anyways. The utility of oath of the ancients' heal pulse means you can AoE heal the team and pick them up as a bonus action that turn as well as the turn after for free. Really good if for some reason someone goes down, it saves a healing word spellslot and gives you a bit more adventuring day longevity. There's even a tiny bit of value from oath of devotion's feature, where if you're mobbed by trash enemies you can pop it and get a tonne of reflect damage. Not useful 99% of the time like vengence's but a few combats will spawn in a horde that can rack up small damage bites on a character. Like the dire ravens and rat encounters. Not a big fan of vengence for the level 1 in particular. The subclass is really carried by vow of enmity with it's cast on self cheese at level 3, which we don't get to in this build guide.

8:16 There's an argument for going 17 charisma (or just an odd number like 15) to prep for taking actor as a first feat. Using the smuggler's ring until then for the stealth and sleight of hand bonuses in the super early game as this build pumps dexterity as well; Roll compressing your lockpicker and face characters. Actor is a huge boon for face builds, I would definitely recommend it for anyone who's making a main character and isn't feat hungry for GWM, Alert, etc and is just taking the +2 charisma ASI anyways. Expertise in deception and performance is a lot better than one might think. If you don't have profiency in those skills the feat directly upgrades you to expertise, allowing you to use two of your inital level 1 profiencies anywhere else. Think if it as giving x4 your profiencies modifer (profient then expert) into specifically deception and performance, then the value of freeing up two level 1 choices for additional bonuses. This is epecially good for a bard since they really want the charisma profiencies and can put their profiencies anywhere on the board; freeing up choices to take the highly sought after sleight of hand and stealth skills without sacrificing getting all the charisma based skills. It's only a half-feat as well, you still get a +1 to charisma to bump it into an even number. Getting an 18(+4) charisma, qctor for expertise (+4 early game), guidance (1d4), and running the shapeshifter ring (1d4), it's nearly impossible to fail a performance/deception check. Even just normal intimidation and persuasion checks are trivialized without giving up much if at all with actor. Once you see the skill monkey bard, it's hard to go back to normal bard. They're set up far to well not to be a MC.

So fun fact... killing Sarevoc before becoming an unholy assassin completley locks you out of the Bhaalist merchant... anyone have any alternative item recommendationd for my stupid self?

quick question, i saw that in act 2 you got your charisma up to 25, how is this possible?

In the pursuit of the strongest party combo in honour mode, I've found that the risky ring and the knife of the undermountain are the two key items that a lot of S tier builds contest for. The other thing is that once you've tried out a bhaalist armor oriented build, it's hard to go back to anything else. My team usually consists of 11 fire 1 fiend sorlock or a 2 GOO 3 thief 4 sorc 3 champ eldritch blaster, 4 thief 8 monk, and a 11/1/1 bard fighter wizard ranged control bard with lv6 counterspell. The three man demo squad is so OP, you can literally roleplay as a bear for the entire game and still completely destroy everything if you setup a surprise first turn.

I enjoyed the shadow monk once I modded it. His shadow strike comes way too late in the game. There’s a nice mod for the shadow monk now on the mod manager that gives shadow strike at level 3 and makes it scale to 6d6 (1d6 damage per odd level like sneak attack but psychic damage) by level 11 if you resist the urge to multiclass. It makes the subclass so fun and strong but not as OP as OH monk, wet lightning or fire acuity sorc and other over the top builds home brewed by Larian.

I don’t get this, I built this exactly the same way. But after the level 9 re-respec I’m still only getting one attack, no fast hands attack and there’s no haste now. Wtf

I.. did a few different styles for my builds but it worked well. I went pure sorcerer for fire damage and scorching rays instead. He would use crowd control if enemies were immune to fire. Plus i had arsonists oils just in case i needed them.... i never needed them. Even with resistances the fire sorcerer could finish the job. And i also went cleric wizard for fire immune enemies and as i said, i had arsonist oils just in case. Hat of fire acuity is just so good even if i only use it to add +10 on a quickened hold monster.

what an intro dayum
