An Immortal Barbarian that can Tank, CC, DPS, and Heal! - The Underzealot - Baldur's Gate 3

[@elperrobarbaro]

Hey, have you considered using Adamantine Shield to proc 2 more conditions/reverberations every time an attack misses you?: "When a melee attack misses you, the attacker is sent Reeling for 2 turns".

[@robertplaysvideogames]

Definitely! It is a great shield, especially early in the game. I would totally use it. Though late game, I will almost always go for the Sword of Chaos over the shield.

[@ProbeAway]

Cool build! Just a small correction though - the prone effect from reverberation is a DC 10 constitution saving throw, not dexterity. The disadvantage is coming from the bleeding effect, rather than maimed

[@ShoryukenPizza]

Anyway you could put the full item build in the description?! Having to pause and rewind consistently through my playthrough..

[@njohan100]

Funny build. I like the whole reverberation setup with the cleave build. Would it be possible to swap out the Orb part for possibly the Monk Robe, that gives free attacks when the enemy miss you ? (the added healing from that armour seems fitting for this type of build as well)

[@robertplaysvideogames]

If you are talking about Robe of Uninhibited Kushigo I believe that is only if you are using Patient Defense, so you would need to put Monk levels in, but I don't see why not if that was your goal.

[@njohan100]

@@robertplaysvideogames Yeah there is that early game and then act 3 you get the Vest of Soul Rejuvenation, which is even better, free healing every turn and free AoO with a +2 to armour. Might try both options, your build and the altered version with monk.

[@chirubime7470]

Love this! I quite enjoy Wildheart Periapt + Shattered Flail builds already, but lacked the know-how for squeezing in the Reverb procs into this build.

[@Splatter_gutz]

I changed my build mid honour run.. I advise.. do not do the self same trial with this build 😐 mirrored karlach owned everyone and then my karlach went mad 😂 I got through it though 😅 Nice build

[@undeadsliver]

nice, i was checking for something like this yesterday ... which fit perfectly.

[@zydiz]

Amazing build, kinda like the one I have been running but with warlock instead of druid. Also try the Punch-Drunk Bastard with this, since it generates a aoe on each hit the damage multiplies by 3 times using cleave since enemies are in close proximity of each other!

[@aldoushuxley5953]

Really creative idea :)

[@mdrlolcat]

How do you like this build for a solo Honor mode run ? Do you think it's tanky enough to go alone in the thick of things ?

[@robertplaysvideogames]

It...could be PRETTY dangerous early because of Shattered Flail, or on the otherhand..maybe that makes it even better? Lol. I would totally try it/use it. This build was so sweet during my Honour Mode Run, but I think it might also have some problems with certain bosses/fights. So you may have to resort to some barrelmancy

[@mdrlolcat]

@@robertplaysvideogames which boss fight are you worried about ? Those undead in act 2 that are immune to bleed ? I could see this build struggling all through act 2. I've just started a solo run with Shattered Flail + Tiger and for now in act 1 it's holding up !

[@Lukashoffmann94]

W‘wargaz could be a hard no. Doesn’t look like enough burst to get him down, before he has too many blades.

[@mdrlolcat]

@@Lukashoffmann94 Actually doing a solo honor playthrough with this build. W'Wargaz was fine, the blade all miss you because of radiating orb and they guarantee you 3 targets so you heal massively. I feel like this build doesn't fear anything that's melee since you're just going to incapacitate them so much. Ethel on the other hand I had to get away from ...

[@Lukashoffmann94]

@@mdrlolcat kinda expected w‘wargaz to just be too high in ac to hit and drain you to death with his link. Ethel shouldn’t be too hard, if you get some magic missile scrolls.

[@victoru92]

Is this on Honor mode?

[@robertplaysvideogames]

The playthrough in the video is NOT on Honour Mode, but I DID play this build in my first Honour Mode run, all of this works exactly the same in Honour Mode.

[@victoru92]

Love the build, the only downside that I see is that it takes some items away from a radiant orb light cleric which is also a beast in honor mode.

[@victoru92]

On my honor moder chapter 2 lawn mower shadowheart carries hard so many fights

[@robertplaysvideogames]

@@victoru92 Yeah unfortunately you only get 1 char who can REALLY lean into the Reverb+Orbs business, so far though, this has been my favorite version :) But I also LOVE martial classes.

[@danielfreitas9301]

This is what I have been running in Honor mode, but in my run, reverberation only applies on one target, not all hit by the cleave. In other modes, is the condition applied to everyone hit?
