I cannot even describe how lovely this video is to relax and fall asleep to after a long day of work. So good, thank you for not yelling or adding obnoxious sound effects
I really like how you put specific emphasis on the fact that all of these classes are essentially the top of their vocation or specialization even at lower levels. A fighter is more than a common soldier, a cleric isn't the same as an ordinary priest, and wizard isn't the same as an arcane scholar. Even a lowly level 1 fighter adventurer is a cut above the average.
This is what i'm missing on DnD, i thought fighter is just your average dude but when i used it i realized that the class is proficient with every weapons and armor which i thought was weird because I'm at level 1
@@ghiffaribara2949 yeah I had to explain to some players in my game that the priest they were talking to couldn't heal them, he was an ordinary priest rather than a fairly rare cleric.
I don't think Larian usually does expansions.... I think they're more likely to start working on Divinity (Original Sin) 3 after a break period. Which, tbh, would also be very cool. Divinity may not be DnD as far as I understand, but DoS 1 and especially 2 are *very* good games and I'd wager many fans of BG3 would still enjoy playing through DoS2 afterwards.
Parian doesn’t really do expansions, and if they do, things get really odd and hard to balance past level 12. To the point that it creates too many possibilities to put into just an expansion
This is a massive help. Now I can tell my gf to just listen to this like a podcast so she doesnt have to spend hours and hours reading through the 5e wiki like I did years ago
I miss Neverwinter Night... the very first game that introduced me to DnD. It took me months to finally get a gists of the rules.. AC, Attack Roll etc... finally simply went fighter and steam roll the whole game... I miss Aribeth.
It’s difficult to tell you how much I appreciate how well you help and properly explain how these games work. It’s mind blowing my man. I am not aware of how I can help you continue. I’m old and I don’t know where to click to find the right Place
I didn't watch the individual ones so I didn't hear previously, congrats on 200k! That's awesome, man. Very well deserved! By far my favorite person for CRPGs and reviews.
Not to get too mushy but I just wanted to thank you for making these videos. If it weren’t for your videos on Baldurs Gate 1 and Kingmaker i wouldn’t even understand what a CRPG was let alone know that turn-based gaming is my favourite genre. I can’t wait for the BG3 content and happy you’re able to keep making videos you love. You rock!
Just wanna pop in and say that I've been watching through the series while I could to try and decide on what I was going to play when I can finally start the game and its been incredibly helpful and interesting. Thanks for making the series! Love your videos. Keep up the great work.
@@chiefinasmith I ended up just going pure circle of the moon druid cause I really want to see how far wild shape goes in the game. If I want to change (or I might save this for another playthrough), I'll go with a sorcerer/warlock multiclass. I haven't gotten much time to play the game though cause I'm in the middle of my finals.
Great video idea. Thanks for this! Hope you're having lots of fun with your next playthrough. I'm playing a Circle of the Moon Druid, vaguely Good and very committed to being rid of the parasite.
I can’t believe that my computer ate it completely before this game launched.. I have a Mortismal Baulder’s Gate playlist so I’ll be ready once I re-build my rig 😎🤌Thanks for putting this into one complete video. Keep up the good work and take care of yourself
Thanks for the video. Your encouragement for us to "wonder in wisdom" leads me to believe that you want us to role either Cleric or Druid [bad joke]. Onward to 300k. All glory to the algorithm.
Cleric and barbarian can make a good pairing on multiclass imo A lot of cleric spells don't have concentration and are one-off buffs you throw up after a long rest, with many of their other features synergizing well with a tanky melee build. Their buff spells don't usually use spellcasting modifier, so it's perfect for a dip cleric -> go barb route. Channel divinity as well can fit very well, particularly War Domain Cleric. Spiritual Weapon is also a very good one to use too, although it does have the slight flaw of taking spellcasting modifier. Altogether, you get to roll a lot of utility into your tank while sacrificing minimally on the damage front. I think it works out very nicely
Good stuff, love it dude. The multiclass meta is going to really open this game up. I'm going super casual on my first playthrough, but I can't wait until I can play with player char and party comp meta later.
I'm gonna enjoy this video, - nice and *meaty* , yum. Haven't touched/watched anything BG3 since it was released as 'early access', so I'm completely in the dark. I have however, some experience with DOS1/2 & played a few campaigns of 4th edition D&D with friends, but that was _quite_ some time ago. I was thinking of finding my old character sheets, but since I have no idea where they are and I'm lazy, I'll happily lap all this information up and go from there instead. Thanks for taking the time to make this! ^_^
Thanks for posting all these videos, your channel has single handedly gotten me interested in CRPG's , Baldurs Gate in general and I bought BG3 because of your videos. This type of crash course content is probably more important than trailers and other marketing for newbies like me.
hello mr Mortismal, I hope you see this. Im not sure if my game is glitched and soft locked or what. I have defeated ketheric thorm and now my part is stuck in their end of day clothes, i can't talk to lae'zal in camp even though she has a ! above her. Its time to go west to baldurs gate, but i cant get there. if i try to leave moonrise towers i take shadow curse damage and die. what did you do after killing thorm?
I just wanted to drop by and comment that you’re a fucking legend. I can’t watch this, because I want my playthrough to be as blind as possible. But you’re crushing it man
This video it’s a gem 💎. Thank you for all the information about the classes. I would love to play DnD after BG3 and your video. Thank you. Subscribed and all the TH-cam things. Looking forward for more content of BG3 and DnD.
1st playthrough - went in blind with literally zero knowledge of BG or D&D. Picked a paladin, and while learning all the game mechanics was really tough at the beginning, I ended up having an absolute blast. From playing other fantasy (A)RPGs like WoW and Diablo, my idea of a paladin was basically a holy protector of the people, so I played as devotion pally, tried to make all the good choices and basically save everyone and everything lol. But he felt like a natural-born leader for our party, and ended up saving the world and getting good endings for everybody in my group. Never really multi-classed caused didn't wanna overcomplicate things on my 1st playthrough, so by lvl12 he was an absolute beast. 2nd playthrough - wanted to try the Dark Urge, since I heard good things about it, and what a different experience that was lol. Went with a warlock cause thematically it felt like a good match, but by the end of act 1 she still felt kinda weak, so SURPRISE - multiclassed into paladin again lol. But went with the Oathbreaker to keep up with the Dark Urge theme. That was a pretty insane combo imo, with a Pact Weapon I was able to make 3 attacks per turn, and with warlock spell slots regenerating after a short rest, my evil paladin was unstoppable, and ended up literally taking over the world haha 3rd (current) playthrough - decided to try a sorcerer, as I've had Gale as a nearly permanent party member in my previous playthrough and liked all the magic stuff, so wanted something kinda similar but still fresh/new. I just spent the first 90 hours exploring Act 1 (still finding new things in the world after 2 full playthroughs, which is crazy), but I dunno if I'm feeling this class tbh, it's not as "new" as I expected. It's basically a very limited Wizard with a slightly different twist, i.e. sorcery points/meta magic. Don't know if I should multiclass into something else or respec entirely, or just power through it and see if it gets better in Act 2 and 3. Also, as a side note, it's crazy how even on my 3rd playthrough I still find new secrets in the game, new quests, new locations, not to mention the insane number of diaogue/story choices and consequences. I guess it helps that I don't just check google/youtube for every possible solution and outcome before making a choice, I just try things to see what happens and roll with it. The game is a lot more fun that way imo. Needless to say I am absolutely obsessed with BG3, if it wasn't yet obvious by this wall of text (sorry about that)
Awesome overview and the differences with 5e. Yeah I agree. Warlock while not as specialized as other classes has their own unique bent on gameplay especially if you want to kick dogma out the window and cut your own path. The pact goes both ways. Doesn't matter how you accomplish your mutually (haha lol) conceived goals but there is no direct way to get there. Awesome dominatrix class. Combat mediocre but sometimes more capable than a bard with negotiations.
Loving the class mods for this game. Running a Blood Hunter Order of the Lycan (Class created by Matt Mercer from Critical Role) and its been very fun so far. Not insanely OP though it seems to be letting me use my melee finesse weapons for the double Predatory Strikes lol. In the Lycan Hybrid form with medium armor and high DEX I have 18 AC at level 4.
BG3 is amazing but I feel like WoTR spoiled me for how massive;y it outperforms BG3 in classes variety not to mention the ability to level up to lvl 40 (compared to quite pitiful 12 here hehe)
Thx for the Supercut, I think Ill go for a Superstar Bard named Larianna. I'm like “FourFiveSeconds” from Wildin, wish they had a College of Glamour like in the Table Top but hey cant have everything right? :D
I would love, if you could make this format for the upcoming Dragon Age - Vailguard. These videos was what originally drew me to your channel 🤩. Can’t wait for the next game om the series 🎉❤
Quick question. On your warlock playthrough did you take a feat to get med armour proficiency? or multiclass as can see your dude rocking at least +1 scale mail a lot in your footage.
I've been playing around with a way of the open hand monk multiclassed with thief rogue. It's pretty silly. Stack strength early and grab tavern brawler. Then dump strength and constitution after you steal the goodies from Raphael and get those boots that add your wisdom to unarmed stikes. Run around smacking people 6 or more times per round for 22-33 per hit. Fun times.
What is the best choice if I want be able to persuade people and solve situations diplomatically? I’m not too concerned about what kind of combat style my character has, I’m more interested in dialogue options and such
Late reply but probably bard, then at level 3 pick the college of lore subclass. You’ll have more skill proficiencies than you’ll know what to do with, and with the high charisma you’ll need for your class, your dialogue skills will be even higher.
@@willroth7521 Thanks for the reply! I ended up playing a sorcerer due to them using charisma for spell casting. I also enjoyed the combat way more than I thought I would, so I think I made the right decision for me with the sorcerer.
Hi Mort. I'm someone who got into CRPGs through pathfinder and used your vids as my source as a new player. Could you do a vid about the similarities and differences between Pathfinder and Baldur's gate?
Ugh, it's honestly criminal we never got a multiplayer Pathfinder 1e game. Playing this with my friends we're equal parts impressed that they took such a basic game and made it more mathematically interesting with the equipment actions, but then we're enormously sad how dull and lifeless character advancement is. Thankfully Larian already had the excellent engine/system from Divine Divinity and could build on that.
so i'm playing thief rogue, but there's an issue i'm running into while trying to pick pocket people, it is that even though i was succesful at pick pocketing they will immediately beeline for me asking me if it was me, and currently i'm not running high charisma so i can't really talk my way out of it, there has to be other ways right? can't i just simply hide away or run away til the heat is off?
is it possible to let all party roll perception/history/religion etc in dialogs? i got talkative Wyll, but he is not very good at those things and often miss skill checks. Kinda funy that 3 ppl standing next to him and Gale can`t say smth like: " bro i know this, trust me". At pathfinder at dialogs you could use all party members best sides:(
PF: WotR has a lot more going on than BG3. Not only is the PF ruleset a lot more complicated than 5e, but they've also had more time to patch and fix things. BG3 will likely get a "definitive edition" just like DOS1 and 2 got...In about a year, and it'll be the superior version with (hopefully) fixes to things like that. Because yeah, even in table top D&D, this is how it's supposed to work. Not where ONE person always has to do ALL dialogue.
The DnD Druid should be called Shaman. If we look at folklore around the world it's the Shaman that can shapeshift into bears, wolves, etc. Yes, Shamans has existed in Asia, Europe and Africa too, not just in America. It's mainly in Nordic Viking lore you can find shamans who turn into Bears but also in the Celtic culture you have shamans that can turn into wolves, stags, etc. Druids however in the Celtic cultures draw their power from alchemy and had the ability to prophesize. Most "realistic" druids in a CRPG you find in The Witcher 3.
Good point, and TW3 was an incredible game. If CDPR can pull their head out of their ass following CP2077, the next Witcher game is the only thing that could potentially upset BG3. Larian set the bar very, very high, and I'm stoked because of it.
@@Hawk7886 CDPR managed to fix CP2077 but it tock them almost a year to do so. But I recommend to wait for the new expansion Phantom Liberty (26 Sept.) if you plan to return as they are also planning to rework all the classes in the game and change allot of game mechanics at the same time.
Is it possible to be a Dragonborne Eldeitch Knight? That’s kinda my goal once I finally be able to play the game. Sadly I don’t have a pc yet. Wish it was on console.
Well...that's just super. I have a question I'd love an answer to. Relating to Origin Characters, not includingThe Dark Urge, (TDU) their stories and the interaction w/ the main story. As I understand it most Origin characters stories interact with the main plot of the game. Do you have to play as the origin character to get that story? Or can you play as TDU and still get, for example Wyll's full story even if you aren't playing as him? Also, can you complete each Origin Character's story in a single playthrough? I'm just trying to figurer out how to capture as much of the stories as I can. And I'm having a tough time picking between 3 party members. So many of them seem like so much fun.
I head somewhere that the Eldritch Knight can "form a bond with their weapon and throw it and it automatically returns to you" is this true? And is it cool/good?
What class suits best to narrative where my life was spared by an evil twisted god and in exchange for my life, I am given his powers and tasked to form a cult in his name and try to conquer and vanquish the other religions?
I need advice, I really want to play through one time as a custom character and would love to play as a rogue but I don’t want to cut Astrion out of my play through. I don’t plan on taking him all the time but I would like the option to. Is having two rogues in the party a bad idea or is it manageable
Too bad i can't speak with animals to thank you, cause you're the goat!
🌽y but I like it

It's capped at 12 for a reason, the balance starts getting wonky after that from what I've heard.

I like the idea of a Bhaal life cleric that heals people because the only right way to die is being murdered 😂
I played Druid circle of the moon my first playthrough and it was such a fun time, lots of ways to solve puzzles and unique dialogue choices.
This is extremely helpful, love rpgs but never really played tabletop D&D. Thanks!
Thanks for this.
Watched your story vids for the first two and was thinking about going into the third game. This vid is gonna give me some good prep.
Love those long compilations especially the lore ones. I always watch them multiple times.😅
Thanks for the video. Your encouragement for us to "wonder in wisdom" leads me to believe that you want us to role either Cleric or Druid [bad joke]. Onward to 300k. All glory to the algorithm.
Cleric and barbarian can make a good pairing on multiclass imo
A lot of cleric spells don't have concentration and are one-off buffs you throw up after a long rest, with many of their other features synergizing well with a tanky melee build.
Their buff spells don't usually use spellcasting modifier, so it's perfect for a dip cleric -> go barb route. Channel divinity as well can fit very well, particularly War Domain Cleric.
Spiritual Weapon is also a very good one to use too, although it does have the slight flaw of taking spellcasting modifier.
Altogether, you get to roll a lot of utility into your tank while sacrificing minimally on the damage front. I think it works out very nicely
Good stuff, love it dude. The multiclass meta is going to really open this game up. I'm going super casual on my first playthrough, but I can't wait until I can play with player char and party comp meta later.

Wizard: I want to learn everything
Warlock: I have made a deal to channel power
Bard: im going to rock your face off
Sorcerer: I blow shit up
Welp, I know what I'll be doing at work today. Planning for my next Baldurs Gate run.
1st playthrough - went in blind with literally zero knowledge of BG or D&D. Picked a paladin, and while learning all the game mechanics was really tough at the beginning, I ended up having an absolute blast. From playing other fantasy (A)RPGs like WoW and Diablo, my idea of a paladin was basically a holy protector of the people, so I played as devotion pally, tried to make all the good choices and basically save everyone and everything lol.

Doesn't matter how you accomplish your mutually (haha lol) conceived goals but there is no direct way to get there.

Quick question. On your warlock playthrough did you take a feat to get med armour proficiency? or multiclass as can see your dude rocking at least +1 scale mail a lot in your footage.

Highly recommended looking at mods after first playthrough to increase subclasses number of feats and level cap

Then dump strength and constitution after you steal the goodies from Raphael and get those boots that add your wisdom to unarmed stikes. Run around smacking people 6 or more times per round for 22-33 per hit. Fun times.
Thank you for this, Mortym
I cant decide, shred my enemies with my axe with barbarian or with my claws as a moon druid.
Good news is multiclassing moon Druid and barbarian mixes just perfectly 😂
Spore Druid works very well with Trickster Domain Cleric.
i've been frozen on picking a class sigh
Multiclass is where it's at. Champion + bard + fiend fun vibe. Reclassing and multiclassing to the other people vibe is fun.
game of the year
Barbarian: Grab a stick and yell f**k you at the enemy.
something to listen to while grinding in BDO :)
Commenting just to say thank you and for engagement.
Good Work keep up!

so i'm playing thief rogue, but there's an issue i'm running into while trying to pick pocket people, it is that even though i was succesful at pick pocketing they will immediately beeline for me asking me if it was me, and currently i'm not running high charisma so i can't really talk my way out of it, there has to be other ways right? can't i just simply hide away or run away til the heat is off?
is it possible to let all party roll perception/history/religion etc in dialogs? i got talkative Wyll, but he is not very good at those things and often miss skill checks. Kinda funy that 3 ppl standing next to him and Gale can`t say smth like: " bro i know this, trust me". At pathfinder at dialogs you could use all party members best sides:(
PF: WotR has a lot more going on than BG3. Not only is the PF ruleset a lot more complicated than 5e, but they've also had more time to patch and fix things.
BG3 will likely get a "definitive edition" just like DOS1 and 2 got...In about a year, and it'll be the superior version with (hopefully) fixes to things like that.
Because yeah, even in table top D&D, this is how it's supposed to work. Not where ONE person always has to do ALL dialogue.
I hope they'll add high level content to the game with an expansion or something, because I really don't like low level D&D combat.
Currently playing as Dark Urge Pally, needless to say i broke my oath on the first day.
The DnD Druid should be called Shaman. If we look at folklore around the world it's the Shaman that can shapeshift into bears, wolves, etc. Yes, Shamans has existed in Asia, Europe and Africa too, not just in America. It's mainly in Nordic Viking lore you can find shamans who turn into Bears but also in the Celtic culture you have shamans that can turn into wolves, stags, etc. Druids however in the Celtic cultures draw their power from alchemy and had the ability to prophesize. Most "realistic" druids in a CRPG you find in The Witcher 3.
Good point, and TW3 was an incredible game. If CDPR can pull their head out of their ass following CP2077, the next Witcher game is the only thing that could potentially upset BG3. Larian set the bar very, very high, and I'm stoked because of it.
@@Hawk7886 CDPR managed to fix CP2077 but it tock them almost a year to do so. But I recommend to wait for the new expansion Phantom Liberty (26 Sept.) if you plan to return as they are also planning to rework all the classes in the game and change allot of game mechanics at the same time.
Why are the UI and fonts so small????
I’m want to be able to be super fast and have great mobility monk dragon sounds like the class for me.
I was so annoyed of that drow at the goblin camp that I literally just lured her unto the bridge and shot it. Girl is so funking dodgy
Is it possible to be a Dragonborne Eldeitch Knight? That’s kinda my goal once I finally be able to play the game. Sadly I don’t have a pc yet. Wish it was on console.
Well...that's just super.
I have a question I'd love an answer to. Relating to Origin Characters, not includingThe Dark Urge, (TDU) their stories and the interaction w/ the main story.
As I understand it most Origin characters stories interact with the main plot of the game. Do you have to play as the origin character to get that story? Or can you play as TDU and still get, for example Wyll's full story even if you aren't playing as him?
Also, can you complete each Origin Character's story in a single playthrough?
I'm just trying to figurer out how to capture as much of the stories as I can. And I'm having a tough time picking between 3 party members. So many of them seem like so much fun.
No, but you get more options. Yes. Yes.
I want to try berserker with thief rogue. Bonus action throw twice per turn and carry around a bunch of powder kegs
Hi all,
does barbs throw ability and the edrich knight ability (thowing weopons comes back) are working together?
Ill have to try wuthrad of thé greybeard tribe for the bard class
I head somewhere that the Eldritch Knight can "form a bond with their weapon and throw it and it automatically returns to you" is this true? And is it cool/good?
Perhaps larian will raise the level cap in the future, with an expansion?
I appreciate that the classes are in alphabetical order
What class suits best to narrative where my life was spared by an evil twisted god and in exchange for my life, I am given his powers and tasked to form a cult in his name and try to conquer and vanquish the other religions?
Cleric
I need advice, I really want to play through one time as a custom character and would love to play as a rogue but I don’t want to cut Astrion out of my play through. I don’t plan on taking him all the time but I would like the option to. Is having two rogues in the party a bad idea or is it manageable
If youre not playing on tactician I wouldnt worry about it
Perfect for my road trip!
I ended up making a BARD-BARIAN
