I'm literally playing Wyll in Act 3 right now and have been wanting to respec him. This was the perfect guide for me! I think I'm going to do it a bit differently (hell, I might not even split with Sorcerer!), but what is great about your build guides is how you give us the theory behind the builds and that empowers us be creative, as opposed to just cookie cuttering. I've said it before and I will keep saying it: these are the best build guides out there.

One of the big factors in decision-making for a Sorlock build in this game is "Which slot level do I need least?" One way you can remove this issue is by using a level split where you always have two more levels in Warlock than Sorc, so you can *always* convert your pact slots immediately. I like 5 Sorc 7 Lock, so I have access to important third level spells from Sorc, as well as the deepened pact boon and fourth invocation. Since the pact slots will be fourth level, I won't have to chew through any pesky spell slots to get to them, and I get tons of points to use for metamagic and making more third level slots. Of course, this cuts off your access to strong high level spells, so this is more of a min-maxed Eldritch Blast build. Also, I think Scorching Ray is a great example of what Eldritch Blast would be as a leveled spell. Maybe it doesn't compete at second level, but when upcasted it gets *way* more mileage out of Hex and any other damage riders that benefit both spells. I feel like Eldritch Blast is used for general-purpose combat, while Scorching Ray is used to kill one thing expeditiously.

A bit of a noob to the whole Coffeelock shenanigans, so can you kindly enlighten me why it's a good idea to make your Warlock levels higher than Sorc? By 7Lock you should get 4th level spell slots, right? While only leaving 3rd level spell slots for 5Sorc? What's the benefit that comes with that?

@@pancakes4193 Purely an issue of game mechanics in BG3. When trying to convert spell slots to sorcery points, you cannot convert your pact slots unless you have no spell slots of the same level. It's the same with spellcasting or divine smite, you have to use the "correct" resource before you can select the "other" resource, but only if they are the same level.

​@@clutchedbyanangel I see! So you basically make sure that your Warlock Spell Slots are always of a higher level so you can convert them into Sorc points first. Very interesting. I should've known that was the case considering that's how it works for actually casting spells too. Currently a 1Sorc/3Lock right now and I was only able to start spamming Magic Missiles from the Warlock Spell Slots first when I got my Warlock Spell Slots higher than my Sorcerer ones.

Nice guide, just a note at 29:30 you say that you can use Hex to increase the damage of each of your attacks (and you were just talking about using haste on yourself), if you hex after casting haste on yourself you'll break haste concentration and just lethargic yourself... I know by experience lol (you most likely know this but some people might not and it's worth pointing it out imo). I lethargic'd myself and shadowheart the other day on turn 1 of a fight trying to haste and hex

I solved this issue by dipping my entire party in two levels of warlock. Everyone gets EB and Devil's Sight. Warlock is a very frontloaded class if you can use charisma as a primary stat with your main class. dipping two levels is very optimal for bards, sorcerors, and paladins. My party started with bard-lock, pad-lock, sor-lock, and a cleric (with the true sight ring), but eventually evolved into dropping cleric for a pure warlock to meme harder with EBs and darkness. Very ridiculous(ly good) party comp. Even having 2/4 members be immune to darkness is good enough to pull the aggro to your tank outside of the AoE, grab the ring and go to town.

Hey cephalopocalypse, can I ask you to look more into Subtle spell metamagic ? It's much better than the wiki or game suggest. In addition to being able to cast spells while silenced, it also make spells silent, and thus enable you to throw fireballs and eldritch blasts out of sight without triggering combat. Out of sight is important here as obviously attacking a character while in their red field of view even with a subtle spell will trigger combat, but out of sight, it won't. I do recommend testing each spell, most work, some don't. I HIGHLY recommend it, yeah quickened is obviously better, but subtle spell is fun and cheap!

i still think the ideal thematic way to do it would be with warlock 2 / sorc 8 / and then top it off with 2 levels in fighter for action surge. just to stack up on all the things replenishing on short rests. and then pair that up with a party member with some levels in bard and you get 3 short rests per day, each of them replenishing your warlock spell slots and your action surge. since youll just be machine gunning blasts with most of your actions, you can still make the most of simply stacking extra actions like that (and potentially with elixirs of bloodlust) even in honor mode. youll forgo the pact of the chain, but you can get the cheeky quasit, and you wont get the 5th level sorc spellslot. but youll get action surge 3 times a day. worth pointing out with regards to itemization is that all of the above also still makes this class combo the ideal user of the callous glow ring or whatsitcalled. to put out stacks of radiant orb as an additional way to control/neuter high priority targets.

I know this one hasn't been updated to the current game edition, but still I was wondering if taking Pact of the Blade wouldn't be a better choice, to have ways to fend off melee enemies (or Pact of the Tome and get Guidance without the talisman, and Animate Dead and Call lightning if you go up to that point instead of going for Sorcerer). By the time you are reaching level 4 you already found Shovel, so you already have an invisible imp scout (one that's fun to listen too). Since you can't have Shovel and the Pact of the Chain summon at the same time, I think it isn't the best option, specially if you are playing solo (if you play with companions, then you get Pact of the Chain and other character -Gale- takes Shovel). :)

Why wouldn't you just stick with Warlock for the first four levels and then respec? 100g that you can just steal back costs nothing. You won't have anything that cares about concentration checks other than Hex early on, but even that isn't a huge deal. Haste is what you need the Con proficiency for anyway. Plus, Sorcerer struggles more against the commander fight. Ray of Frost is pretty much all they have going for them, and he's resistant to Fire, Thunder, Cold and Poison. But not Arcane... Picking Sorcerer first delays your invocations and it delays being able to start fights with surprise with your Imp. Enemies also don't really have their turn skipped with prone unless you have at least two stacks of it on them. A ranged character can still shoot you, then move, then fall prone, but still get their turn at the start of the next round.
@padawan-fd2jx
@padawan-fd2jx 11 ай бұрын
Probably a stupid question, but which fight do you mean by the “commander” fight? Overall agree with your take that going 4 levels into warlock and then respeccing is the move. I’ve done a few sorcerer runs and they always struggle early-on before they get enough metamagic, items, and spells online to really start dishing out damage. Warlock, on the other hand, does very consistent (not amazing but quite respectable) damage early game, and can have pretty solid surviveability thanks to pact of the fiend. I know great old one is definitely the move mid/late game when you can proc crit hits more consistently, but if you’re respeccing at 4 anyway, just go fiend early game for the added surviveability

Here's a strategy i tried myself that I have dubbed the sleepy time orchestra. Basically, have most if not all of your characters take 2 levels of bard (including hirelings and maybe even yourself) and then whenever you run out of short rests, you can just use song of rest, and when the song of rests in uour party have been used, swap out the person who need the short rest the least for ankther companion with sing of rest. With this method, you can get 15-16 short rests per long rest. This is also a good method if you're playing tactician or higher and just choose to not grab any food (you should also grab durable to get even more mileage out of this)
@Zimmaster
@Zimmaster 11 ай бұрын
I haven't tested officially, but I see no reason you cant respec your unused companions to bards to get a free extra short rest from each. Meaning you just put 3 of them plus the coffeelock in the party and consume your Warlock Spells, use Song of Rest on one, consume, Song of Rest, etc til you run out of companions. Then swap back to your main party. You now have your two daily short rests still, plus a bunch of Sorc points and go about your merry way. If you caught all the pokemon, in act 3 that is 7 free short rests as a custom origin. So 42+9 Sorc points before leaving camp. That's pretty caffeinated.

There is a way to save Alfira as TDU. Spoiler warning if you don’t want the tip or other info about a Dark Urge play through: Find Alfira in the druid grove, and sneak attack her from behind to knock her out without getting seen. Do this before any long rest until you trigger the event where TDU murders a bard. Be sure to turn on non-lethal attacks. When you long rest and the event triggers, a Dragonborn bard will show up in Alfira’s place. Things progress as normal, but Alfira will be in the clear after the substitute is offed. Alfira can be found on the cliffs overlooking the grove-check the path to the left of where the druids tell you that you can’t enter to find a trail to Alfira and another optional encounter.

Assuming you're doing the necromancy minions build that is so wonderful to experience, it's fairly simple! If you're willing to do a respec, then stick with Spore Druid all the way up to level 12 where you then respec to Spore Druid 6/Necromancy Wizard 6, making sure to grab the Staff of Cherished Necromancy from Act 3, finish the Necromancy of Thay questline that wraps up in Act 3, and learn the Dethrone spell from the special scrolls acquired in Act 3. Obviously, you'd then use your scribe ability to learn all of the best Necromancy spells from scrolls such as Blight and Circle of Death for the free casts granted by the Staff of Cherished Necromancy. Ideally you plan ahead for this and make sure to grab any scrolls for 4th, 5th, and 6th level spells to scribe after the respec. The rest of your gear is honestly up to you and whatever your party needs :) If you don't like respec'ing or have banned it in your run for whatever reason, then just go straight Spore 6/Necro Wiz 6. Necro Wizard just doesn't really do a lot for the build until level 6 when it gets the amazing minion bonuses. If you're not going full minion build and just want to use the necromancy blasting spells, then Spore 11/Wizard 1 is probably your best bet just to scribe the non-druid necro spells and Dethrone. Have fun!

Why does nobody talk about the risky ring for builds like this? Yeah you have disadvantage on saves, but most fights the worst thing you'd fail a save on is to lose concentration on hex, and you gain advantage to hit on every EB shot, which also essentially doubles your chance to crit, and all but guarantees you're going to maul at least 1 enemy before anyone else can move - and you can bring a party along to mop up, buff you, counterspell for you, etc. You don't want to concentrate on haste, since hex is also concentration and potions of speed are so common anyway.

That is almost my sorcerer build. The difference is that I took 1 level of Wizard to learn more utility spells. Anyway, there is another thing to help to acumulate Sorcerer Points: make the three hirelings (and any other companion that usually stays in camp - in my case, I only use this in Minsk) with 6 levels in Wild Magic Barbarian. That way, you can recovery at least three 1st and 2nd levels spells. And you can also throw some levels in Bard on the hirelings to gain some free short rests with Song of Rest.

Which variety of hex do you use?
@Cephalopocalypse
@Cephalopocalypse 9 ай бұрын
I usually go with strength hex, it makes enemies worse at pushing you and makes it easier to push them (if they're strength based). The only other one that could come up is wisdom if you're trying to make stealth checks, but that mostly only matters for greater invisibility

I'm at lvl 8. Why can I only cast 2 beams of eldritch blast and not 3 as in the video?
@Cephalopocalypse
@Cephalopocalypse 11 ай бұрын
You get your third beam at level 10! Cantrips upgrade at 5 and 10 - something else important about that is that it's at *character* level 5 and 10, not class level, so even when you multiclass all your cantrips will still upgrade.

How to get shield proficiency as a Drow?
@Cephalopocalypse
@Cephalopocalypse 10 ай бұрын
Easiest way is to be a half drow, which gets all the human proficiencies - but if you've already started the character, one level in cleric will work!

I mean you can be flexible with this right and have a bard party member or also have one in camp for that song of rest.

@@lord461 true. was mostly looking for some extra skill profs too as an MC. I'd have plenty camp casting hirelings as is.

That's definitely an option! I think if your goal is the strongest possible character, you're best off staying in sorcerer, since song of rest for 2 level 2 warlock slots is the same as 4 sorc points - 2 levels in sorc already gives you 2 of those, as well as access to 5th level spells. That said the skill proficiencies are definitely nice, and any loss in power is pretty marginal so if you want to do it I say go for it
