We're CERTAIN you're all having rational and polite conversations about who does/doesn't deserve to be in your party, so tell us! Who are you personal favourites?

[@ThatSmilingRobot]

I guess my main issue is...most of the stuff they talk about doesn't matter at all for most of the companions. Too much emphasis was put on their class abilities and specifically their abilities at the time they're acquired mostly. What actually makes the characters good, bad, or even different are their personalities and stories. You can make anybody into any class, so abilities literally do not matter when picking a companion.

[@demi.devil.]

😂 knew this list was bad the minute they said eldritch blast isn’t good enough to make up for warlocks lacking spell slots… as if it’s not the best cantrip in the game

[@LeanBacalzo]

Us is the best brain boi.

[@aegis555]

Laezel has an enormous evolution if you make the "right" decisions. One of my favorite characters

[@benitaur6606]

Laezel isnt bad man she has a pretty big character arc later in the game

[@jackinthebox1993]

Lae'zel is a true warrior, a poet, and a QUEEN. I won't tolerate anymore slander towards her!

[@smokingaze4754]

Well.... Lae'zel might just be the most powerful companion you get. You just need to play down her lust for blood and it's all good. A powerful romance aswell

[@HershMcGersh]

This video has not aged well. Lae’zel has one of the best character arcs in the game.

[@mayfirerose]

Would have been nice to have a base understanding of their stories. That probably would have changed the rankings lol

[@spacechannelfiver]

Withers for conversations, Scratch for being a good boy.

[@gustaafargoan]

There's only one companion I don’t leave camp without, and that is Lae,zel.

[@MrRyus101]

Laezel acts the way she does because she along with majority of the Giths are brainwashed/manipulated and when she finally comes to that realization she changes just like Minthara.. Laezel is hands down a good companion because of her fighter and gith race so imo she is easily top 3

[@KLGChaos]

Wyll isn't all that bad. Eldritch Blast is the strongest cantrip in the game with the enhancements you get from it (add charisma to damage, knockback) and with multiple attacks as it levels, it can be as strong as any martial weapon.

[@Doorkey2]

Romancing Shadowheart as a Selunie Cleric is funny tho

[@Fruity52467]

Bruh when Karlach looked at me and said she just wanted a hug i knew she right then and there she was one of my favorites

[@Squids575]

assassin Astarion with sharpshooter can get pretty ridiculous at times.

[@Asmallcorneroftheinternet]

Me and the dream team, a.k.a, Shadowheart, Karlach, and Laz'el. In reality, I have no bitches. In Baldur's Gate 3, I have three of the best in video game history.

[@JaiSinVern]

you can get Minthara without hurting the grove and you can keep everyone else as well

[@CastIronEric]

You can get minthara and keep everyone happy - agree to take her side - then knock her out - it will count as competing killing her. - then take care of the other 2 bosses and turn in the quest
