I'm not very good at this game and it took me a while to learn how to fight and attack, but the best group I've had was me as a Monk, the Cleric lady, the Vampire guy and the Warlock guy. The Warlock is VERY powerful.. Thanks for the great video, thumbs up.
Hmm, with the last build (the jumping one), I would say once you get to level 5 to switch to 3 rogue and 2 monk. The reason being is you can pick thief rogue to have two bonus actions, which you can use to dash. So, it'd be like this: 1. Bonus action - monk step of the wind 2. Bonus action - rogue dash 3. Action - regular dash This way you get the total of three dashes worth of movement speed in jumps every single turn without relying on action surge. That way of the fight lasts more than one turn, you can still do the same amount of jumping on subsequent turns as well. Not to mention all the skill benefits that rogues get
The fog cloud rogue trick can benefit from the bow, purchasable very early, that allows you to recover a 1st level spell when you get a crit, and that can proc once per short rest, effectively giving you an extra fog cloud, (potentially) every short rest.
@@Firespark81 Definitely, but if you are trying to squeeze in more effectiveness per long rest, it works. And from an RP perspectives, the characters are in somewhat of a hurry, and feel the tadpole clock is ticking.
Tavern brawler monk, xbow bard, reverb barbarian, and pure fighter is all ya need to complete honor mode. Enjoy the game without long resting after every 2 fights. Just stock up on healing potions, invis potions, and strength elixers and you are good to go.
Pure fighter are badass, yes! But I think 1 lvl war domain cleric and 11 lvl fighter are way more fun. But that is just me.

Tiger + wolverine barbarian (auto maim which is an OP debuff) with all the reverb/reeling/daze/ gear you can find. Great Weapon master and Sentinel for extra fun. Enjoy stunlocking everything with AoE attacks!

That's my comp, with throw barb/ fighter instead of pure fighter. It's a steamroll.
@kalzhae There are a few ways to build it, and actually, this could work on any melee build, but it is completely item dependent. Luckily, the items are easy to acquire and you can get most in act 1. The barb is simply a zerker (some go tiger wildheart for the aoe bleed) 6, rogue 4, fighter 2. You could go rogue 3 and fighter 3 and take champion for the crit. Rogue 4 gives an extra feat. EDIT - 5 zerker, 4/3 thief, 3/4 champion works too. Or 6 zerker 6 battle master...the build is flexible as the items do the work. The items you need before the end of act 2 are - helm varies until you aquire Sarevok's in act 3 but the momentum helm before then, thunderskin cloak, Armour of agility or Yuan-ti scale mail, disintegrating nightwalker boots, GLOVES OF BELLIGERENT SKIES, ring of spiteful thunder, risky ring, any necklace will do but Surgeon's Subjugation is nice. Here is the trick to the build...you need the Drakethroat Glaive so you can cast draconian elemental weapon (THUNDER) on the weapon you will be using. You have to drop the weapon, cast drac ele on it, and then equip. The Moonlight Glaive or Halberd of Vigilance are my preferred options to use. Dead shot for the bow to further reduce crit chance. So long as you apply lightning, radiant, or thunder damage you apply reverberation. When you deal thunder damage to a reverberating enemy you daze them. If a reverberating enemy damages you then they must con save or be dazed. And to top it all off, 5 stacks of reverberation makes the enemy prone. You can easily apply 5 stacks a turn.
Adds killer - 5 Gloomstalk Ranger, 5 Thief Rogue, 2 Fighter. Sharpshooting. Double hand crossbow. Ne'er Misser and Hellfire. Risky Ring, Caustic Band, Gloves of Archery to Flawed Helldusk. Arrows of many targets. Bloodlust Elixir. You got a lot of guys to kill? This one. Takes off after 5 Ranger 3 Rogue. Great for act 2 and dependable endgame. Crit Fish Charisma Master Blaster - 3 Sorc, 2 Warlock, 3 Rogue Thief, 4 Fighter. Spell Sniper Feat. Use potions of 2nd, 3rd, 4th spell slots to game the system for sorcery points. Potential 15 eldritch blasts per turn, 9 all day. Short fights. Burst. Elixir of Viciousness. Works better if you took the Charisma hair from Ethel act 1. Arcane Synergy Ring, Risky Ring. Need to get the chest piece from Alfira as well. Single Target Ranged Build (Big bosses) - 12 Fighter. Dexterity maxed, Longbow for Braced. Serrated Arrows of fitting specification. Undead, Dragon, Fiend, Aberration arrows, etc. Not much to say here, just bring the right arrows, but sometimes it's hard to figure out how something is classified. Titanstring can work with strength too, but I recommend the guiding bolt from Gontr Mael. Promised victory, trust.
I absolutely loved this video. The funny joke builds that are viable are always cool to see and try. I REALLY love the jump based build cause I like going fast and far for no reason. I so want to see a full optimized build of the jump build. I think that it's super funny and something I would love to take all the way through the game.
the moonbeam build has a fatal weakness now, sanctuary has a 1-turn cooldown before it can be replied, meaning if your character is in range can be killed during that turn. large groups and being complacent with movement away from strike range will kill you easily. Testing this out at the goblin camp, almost died but managed to get all but 3 of them and had to run away using enhanced leap and wild shape during my last sanctuary.
Tav brawler throwing barb. Your welcome. Returning pike and ring of flinging and your an absolute unit. Build gets better as you go along making you a killing machine.
Realy like this video. It’s getting harder and harder to find new and interesting builds and mechanics that I don’t already know so i really like the hole video and that every build as a synergy with each other
Youre going to want timestamps because it makes for a more attractive video plus the extra metadata shows up in search, meaning people looking for a specific build will find your video faster.
I'm liking build 3 but changing up fighter for war cleric. Essentially sacrificing the 1 AC for war priest charges and spell slot. Feel cleric pairs much more nicely with sorc having create water along with the ice/lightning spells or any ice/lightning attacks. Having pretty much the same defence but more flexibility and choice for an extra attack seems even more OP!!! Can obviously respec at any point when you go up the levels but a cleric dip early is so strong!!! Later on, having the Blur sorc mixed with swords bard and defensive flurry with high AC would be ridiculous. You'd lose heavy armour prof, but should reach AC of 26-28 with defensive flurry and choices of equipment. Have a cleric cast warding bond and choose war caster as a feat and nothing is doing anything to you. Going 9 swords Bard to get hold monster and 3 Sorc and then using hat of arcane acuity and ring of mystic scoundrel means you can CC anything in the game, you're unhittable and have a balance between magic and melee
for the Hamarhraft builds, you should use the Speedy Lightfeet (dush grant you lightning charge) insteads. it only give 1 lightning damage but it's 25%+ boost at the level....
something i never get used to playing any DnD based-game, is how difficult the beginning early game is, especially if you are lvl 1 wizard or sorc. now my experience is mostly on video games-based DnD, but the fact that I have to cheese early game builds (looking at you Pathfinder) and then respec later is kinda off-putting. Then you hit like level 6 and suddenly you are OP and enemies don't scale anymore.
Hi FireSpark. About Hanarhraft jump build - Flight counts as jump for this hammer. If you have wizard/sorc. in your party with Flight spell and take 3 lvl thief(2 add.action) you could speed up yourself 3 times till 60-80 meters travel. And flight uses only 1m for travel near. So (1-4)*60 = 60-240 damage for 1 turn on lvl4.
Seems this guide is focused on single builds, so a Throw Barb with Tavern Brawler is still OP at level 4. Ring of Flinging, Caustic Band, Returning Pike, Broodmother's Amulet, The Water Sparkers. As far as team builds, not much can survive a team of four level 2 Light Clerics spamming Radiance of Dawn. Add 2 levels of Bard for extra short rests and you are truly spreading God's word :)
@@Firespark81throw barb still does quite a bit more damage than your rogue fog cloud build for example, and a lot more damage than your high ac build. Moonbeam + sanctuary glitch is likely to be patched out at some point, and hameraft jump is effective but boring since you're spending minutes making a single turn. Overall, none of these builds are as good as a berserker thrower personally.
The fog + hide combo may only have two charges, but if you have 4 characters with the same build, you end up with 8, and you only need 1 charge for the entire team.
An alternative I've found is that you can have the darkness arrows and shoot those. Hit your first target to start combat with it. Then just shoot once more and end your turn hiding in it. No multiclass needed. No spell casting either though.
@@westenev Yeah I get that, but now that your dex modifier doesn't automatically apply to offhand attacks, dual wielding hand crossbows doesn't seem like it'll be better than using the Titanstring Bow with the Club of Hill Giant's Strength as a stat stick.
@@ascendedsleeper5693 BUT it does come with the caveat that the build comes online at level 3 if you have someone who can cast the spell in your party (wizard/druid), simply by visiting the grove and the goblin camp for green handcrossbows. Because we aren't (total) cowards, and are looking to fight Dhorn and the Gnolls ASAP on the way to getting the titanstring bow/club of hill giant strength.
@@westenev If you leave the Fog Cloud casting to a party member, they'll still need to have either 2-3 levels in Rogue or Ranger to get the bonus action sneak, otherwise enemies will just target the caster and make them lose concentration right? The whole point of the sneak bonus action was to avoid that happening.
@@ascendedsleeper5693 Honestly, with a bit of planning, this is really a non-issue. Throw spikes (Druid) over a choke point and keep your caster (Wizard Gale, I guess?) safe. This tactic has lead to some hilarious battles (Both in the goblin camp and underdark) where the AI decides to suicide on the spikes, or just stands there waiting to get sneak attacked from behind. This DID however become a problem in limited space encounters like the Dwagar boat, but by that point you're level 4 and can multiclass.
Yes, ill respec my team now i have half items for now, just to google the rest and have some fuuunnn ❤ that cleric , fog archer and jumper would be perfect addition for my main to cheeze the game some more , ill literaly run 4 solo beasts and swap them when they need long rest 😂❤
You can also just pick 4 moon druids with tavern brawler that are half orcs. Most of the time ur knocked out of form, you can just shift back due to at worst getting knocked to 1 hp. You can still get got after that, before you can change, but it is rare.
For the three levels of sorcerer, if the only thing that matters is the meta-magic for blur, why draconic ancestry instead of storm for the free flight for added maneuverability? What benefit does Draconic give for a tank? Or does Storm not get blur or something? Also, after level 4 do you recommend just dumping levels into fighter for the rest of the build? I’m looking for a simple-to-use character that’s still effective and I like tanks.
I gave build 2 a try. I found that they hit me with fog cloud. doing a warlock 3/rogue 1 was better as they would TRY to target me in darkness but fail to hit, meaning I didn't have to hide and Devil's sight meant I could just stay in the darkness
Can someone rate my BG3 team? (First gameplay) -Gale: 8/16/14/16/12/8 (Divination) Arcana / History / Religion / Investigation + Nature or Stealth? -Lae'zel: 17/14/16/8/10/8 (BM or Eldritch Knight 6 and Divination Wizard 6) Athletics, Perception, Survival and Intimidation (Ability to get all Dex skills) -Shadowheart: 10/14/16/10/16/8 (Trickery Domain) Religion, Insight, Medicine + History or Persuasion? -Me: 10/18/16/10/14/16 (Gloves of Dex / College of Swords) Insight, Persuasion, Sleight of Hand, Perception + Deception or Acrobatics?
You don’t need Gale as pure wiz because the way wizard learns spell in bg3 as long as you multiclass into other caster besides warlocks. Don’t need Sheart on trickery. You don’t actually need a dedicated healer. More damage = faster fights, meaning you don’t need to sit there and try to ping pong your teammates from down to up to down
No matter the build I get stuck on the goblin leaders. I still keep trying though. I’m on my 5th playthrough. I’m going to try this build and hopefully it saves me.
They aren't so bad. Gut is easy. Take her down while she's alone in her room. Karlach finishes her in one hit or Laezel in one or two hits. Same with Minthara. She's alone with one or two goblins. Easy. Then close the door to the final boss and clear the outside so they can't run in. The final Boss I always hit the three or four furthest Goblins with an AOE and eliminate them in one turn BEFORE the fight initiates. After that it's gravy. If you are a Sorcerer and have Wyll then it's literally a joke.
For the Dror Ragzlin room i placed three fire barrels next to each other. Cast minor illusion in the middle of the barrels so the whole room grouped to it and then shot a fire arrow.
what about a dex/cha build for your main. So you face and sneak/steal with your main and all your other 3 chars can just be super indexed into killing machines. I was thinking pact blade warlock/thief rogue I was thinking adding monk so you can do flury with your extra thief actions and wisdom is very important for your main character. I'm thinking, with dex gloves, you can dump your dex stat and get your free +4ac from dex, Go human and rogue for your first level to get all those delicious extra skills. Then level 2 go warlock level 3 go monk. level 4 go warlock with dex gloves and your +2 and hag hair you can have 18 dex/cha/wis. that's 18ac. mage armor makes that 21 bracers makes that 23 and armor of argathys for if they do happen to get thru. You can also use that giants club, to make up for dumping your str as well, and the int crown from the ogre means you can have a ridiculously stated character that can be your face and not require item slots that can then be used by your other characters, and can sneak/steal. 5 warlock for pact blade for charisma to be your damage stat and the extra attack. 4rogue for thief subclass for extra action and feat. 3 monk for flury, wisdom to ac. 4 ki points and way of the shadow subclass abilities. Wondering what ya think? Also, curious if you would be interested in building a 'super ultra multiclass' builld. I saw a guy who built a charisma build with sorc/bard/paly/warlock/cleric/wizard. I think* and then i think he went bard secrets? so he used cleric/wizard to get non wis/int spells and the free stuff you get from sorc/paly/warlock since they are so front loaded and then used bard to get the 2 uber spells. BUT, I was thinking that a 4fighter/4rogue/1monk/1sorc/1cleric/1paly could be sick. But, I like that because all of the classes are so front-loaded, it's very interesting how much you can abuse that, by taking just 1 level in a class for the first, maybe 5 or 6 levels, to maximize all that frontloaded power, then focus on one class for the rest of the game to access the bigger stuff you can get access to later in your class. I was even thinking if you went 6 class level 1's, and then 6 levels in fighter, so you get the extra attack and still get 2 feats, while getting all that front loaded stuff from all the other 6 levels/classes.
When I first leveled up the cleric/druid build, I added a subclass of druid but why do I get level 2 cleric/1druid and not 1 cleric/2 druid like in the video?
I'm a complete noob to this game I recently bought it a few days ago, so I'm really curious... does your race choice matter on any of these builds particularly??
When you create a race if you scroll down to the abilities under you can read what each of them do in not sure what race is the fastest but a faster race might benefit the last build some
you need a barbarian that takes the subclass to increase ally movement speed within 8 meters. when you enter and leave the radius you will gain movement speed and regain your jump and bonus action!
@@kitkami I watched it again, and he does say they have to be in your party. I'm trying to figure out how that works with this build and the concentration required for everything else to work. I might be able to give the thunder jump member a level of cleric to pull it off, but I'm not sure if that will break the build later in game.
>Actually OP builds >I pick life domain cleric for le epic extra 2 healing points in a game with instant short rests, tons of healing magic items and generous amounts of food for full restores whenever I want. Reddit Gold
@@TheRyosteve first time to multi-class? when you level up, look for an icon/button that says 'add class' or 'change class' (forgot what it says exactly).
Dexterity eldritch knight is very tanky, has 20 ac with mage armor and a shield, can use shield spell as reactionary for 25 ac, and is tanky to hold concentration.
Try using four party members with 2 light cleric/2 bard. You get to use 4 radiance of the dawn (huge AOE) per short rest. and you will have 7 short rests per day.
It's a great build to begin fights and pick off a few annoying enemies before sending in your whole team. I'd actually suggest going circle of moon instead of land, because even if you miss the extra spell slot, Dire Raven at level 5 is amazing for exploration and speedrunning waypoints/ceremonial weapons at the Githyanki creche. Plus, bear form is a great way to spend your "sanctuary blocked" turn. After level 5 I would probably respec into a light cleric or something, because you should have all the broken OP gear from grymforge/underdark/gith creche to create a dodge/debuff tank with all the radiant orb/reverberation gear.
the game has tremendous power creep, i level to 12 before I got the last two gems and continued to walk over many foes with my insane ac and damaging attacks, this was in balanced mode. They said that they felt that giving higher levels was too much, I would say so with all the montyhaul treasures you guys gave out or presented to buy. As a dm looking at this game there is way too many magical items and powerful ones as well, just cutting them down is not enough. I mean come on facing an arch devil on his home plan and an avatar for the god of death all should be epic levels not 10 to 12.
Bro what are you even talking about? Did you even watch the video? Each of these can solo anything at level 4 and 2 completely shut down the ai lmao. Your brain is definitely melted.
@vectorsiegman3341 Oh. I haven't tried tactician yet. I'm new to this, and I'm having a tough enough time with normal. I didn't know they were different that much. Thank you for the heads up.
Fix : For those not finding the sanctuary spell at lv1, just open the spell book ( tab on PC ) and change it there Old comment: Btw Sanctuary is only unlocked on cleric LV2 (at least on tactician), so cant do the cleric/moonbean on tac solo at lv4
That is completely false. It's a level one spell and all the footage and character respecs here are all done in tactician. Shadowheart also starts with it lmao. bg3.wiki/wiki/Sanctuary
I'm on a playthrough right now that I started yesterday, and it only unlocks after lv2 Probably a new patch but tried it all and it's only available at this level
@@THESocialJusticeWarrior moonbeam IS broken, I destroyed githianki patrol with 2 lvl3 druids, took me 12 rounds but without any effort, ambush, items etc
@@prodbyhyppythe ui looks a little different for console, and can sometimes be hard to notice smaller options, this kind of effects all more “complex” games that are on pc and console. Some of the worst examples I’ve seen firsthand is paragon games kingdom crusaders series.
This game is trash even with a good story. It is 90% menu selections and cut scenes. Ridiculous that this won game of the year being a menu simulation dice roll luck game.

Gloves of archery do not increase your damage with crossbows of any type. They only work with short or longbows.
With how tedious the level 4 -> level 5 path can be this video is a godsend.
throwing does not require target, you can throw at place where target stand and hit it, works for invisible targets too, same with aoe
What should be the following of each build ? Maxing the main class ?

As far as team builds, not much can survive a team of four level 2 Light Clerics spamming Radiance of Dawn. Add 2 levels of Bard for extra short rests and you are truly spreading God's word :)
Raphaël fight would be a pain for such team to be honest, with reverb radiant and high resistance or immunity to fire damage.
@@kalzhae Early game builds specifically. You can easily respecc once you've cleared the gob camp.
You know they nerf throw bard right. You don't get a bunch of extra damage from tavern brawler anymore. Just the normal amount.
@@Firespark81throw barb still does quite a bit more damage than your rogue fog cloud build for example, and a lot more damage than your high ac build. Moonbeam + sanctuary glitch is likely to be patched out at some point, and hameraft jump is effective but boring since you're spending minutes making a single turn.
Overall, none of these builds are as good as a berserker thrower personally.
@@kalzhae My comment was regarding the video's limitations, which was up to level 4. Raphael is not level 4.
The fog + hide combo may only have two charges, but if you have 4 characters with the same build, you end up with 8, and you only need 1 charge for the entire team.
This is very true. Which makes it even more busted.
An alternative I've found is that you can have the darkness arrows and shoot those. Hit your first target to start combat with it. Then just shoot once more and end your turn hiding in it. No multiclass needed. No spell casting either though.
beware with large jumping enemies (minotaurs, owlbears, clawthings), they WILL jump near you and they will break your moonbeam concentration
That last build is really creative. Good job.
that hammer works better with fly. it will trigger on the smallest movement
can you do a video of how to do the complete build for the cleric/druid build please!
I too would love to see a complete druid build. Love your vids man. Keep up the good work. =)
Why not pick Ranger for the fog cloud build?
You can get fog cloud and the Gloomstalker's bonus action hide skill all by level 3.
My guess is that by taking Thief, you can use hand crossbows.
@@westenev Yeah I get that, but now that your dex modifier doesn't automatically apply to offhand attacks, dual wielding hand crossbows doesn't seem like it'll be better than using the Titanstring Bow with the Club of Hill Giant's Strength as a stat stick.
@@ascendedsleeper5693 BUT it does come with the caveat that the build comes online at level 3 if you have someone who can cast the spell in your party (wizard/druid), simply by visiting the grove and the goblin camp for green handcrossbows.
Because we aren't (total) cowards, and are looking to fight Dhorn and the Gnolls ASAP on the way to getting the titanstring bow/club of hill giant strength.
@@westenev If you leave the Fog Cloud casting to a party member, they'll still need to have either 2-3 levels in Rogue or Ranger to get the bonus action sneak, otherwise enemies will just target the caster and make them lose concentration right?
The whole point of the sneak bonus action was to avoid that happening.
@@ascendedsleeper5693 Honestly, with a bit of planning, this is really a non-issue. Throw spikes (Druid) over a choke point and keep your caster (Wizard Gale, I guess?) safe.
This tactic has lead to some hilarious battles (Both in the goblin camp and underdark) where the AI decides to suicide on the spikes, or just stands there waiting to get sneak attacked from behind. This DID however become a problem in limited space encounters like the Dwagar boat, but by that point you're level 4 and can multiclass.
Yes, ill respec my team now i have half items for now, just to google the rest and have some fuuunnn ❤ that cleric , fog archer and jumper would be perfect addition for my main to cheeze the game some more , ill literaly run 4 solo beasts and swap them when they need long rest 😂❤
You can also just pick 4 moon druids with tavern brawler that are half orcs. Most of the time ur knocked out of form, you can just shift back due to at worst getting knocked to 1 hp. You can still get got after that, before you can change, but it is rare.
Actually legit thanks man 1st one is actually broken😂
QUESTION: Is the Blurr Fighter something you can do to any of the companions or specific to Shadowheart ?
For the three levels of sorcerer, if the only thing that matters is the meta-magic for blur, why draconic ancestry instead of storm for the free flight for added maneuverability? What benefit does Draconic give for a tank? Or does Storm not get blur or something? Also, after level 4 do you recommend just dumping levels into fighter for the rest of the build? I’m looking for a simple-to-use character that’s still effective and I like tanks.
Draconic sorceror gains some additional HP, thats all i can really think of.
I want to see full jumping build.
I gave build 2 a try. I found that they hit me with fog cloud. doing a warlock 3/rogue 1 was better as they would TRY to target me in darkness but fail to hit, meaning I didn't have to hide and Devil's sight meant I could just stay in the darkness
the Hamarhraft build is BRUTAL
Just what I needed for my honor run
Good luck! May the dice rolls be in your favor!
So awesome! Can't wait to try these. Thank you!
Bro with aspect of the elk you can have unlimited movement speed. So unlimited thunder jumps
Can someone rate my BG3 team? (First gameplay)

You don’t need Gale as pure wiz because the way wizard learns spell in bg3 as long as you multiclass into other caster besides warlocks.
Don’t need Sheart on trickery. You don’t actually need a dedicated healer. More damage = faster fights, meaning you don’t need to sit there and try to ping pong your teammates from down to up to down
@@AK-bm1yl Paladin 6 / Cleric 6 (War) works for Shadowheart?

If you're having a good time then 10/10 🤗
Why extended spell for blur? Seems unnecessary. Could've gone Wizard and have eldrich knight synergies. Plus abjuration school.
I'm seeing some warmaster synergy though (for level 6+). Can't they counterattack if the opponent misses their attack?
No matter the build I get stuck on the goblin leaders. I still keep trying though. I’m on my 5th playthrough.
I’m going to try this build and hopefully it saves me.
They aren't so bad. Gut is easy. Take her down while she's alone in her room. Karlach finishes her in one hit or Laezel in one or two hits. Same with Minthara. She's alone with one or two goblins. Easy. Then close the door to the final boss and clear the outside so they can't run in. The final Boss I always hit the three or four furthest Goblins with an AOE and eliminate them in one turn BEFORE the fight initiates. After that it's gravy. If you are a Sorcerer and have Wyll then it's literally a joke.
For the Dror Ragzlin room i placed three fire barrels next to each other. Cast minor illusion in the middle of the barrels so the whole room grouped to it and then shot a fire arrow.
@@HelloWorld-vj5ts 🤣🤣🤣
I was looking for a sanctuary build, thank you:)
Best guide ever...
What’s the background for the third build?
Does the jumping build really work? I thought jumping cost a bonus action. Is it free for monks?
"Step of the Wind: Dash" makes jumps not cost a bonus action, only move speed. This was noted in the video.
3:02 read the description of thr spells lol.
How do you move Moonbeam without it counting as a turn?
It only cost a bonus action the following turns, assumed you keep the concentration
One would think moonbeam would be a Selune cleric talent.
in 5e, Twilight Cleric comes with Moonbeam.
what about a dex/cha build for your main. So you face and sneak/steal with your main and all your other 3 chars can just be super indexed into killing machines.
I was thinking pact blade warlock/thief rogue I was thinking adding monk so you can do flury with your extra thief actions and wisdom is very important for your main character.
I'm thinking, with dex gloves, you can dump your dex stat and get your free +4ac from dex, Go human and rogue for your first level to get all those delicious extra skills.
Then level 2 go warlock
level 3 go monk.
level 4 go warlock
with dex gloves and your +2 and hag hair you can have 18 dex/cha/wis. that's 18ac. mage armor makes that 21 bracers makes that 23 and armor of argathys for if they do happen to get thru.
You can also use that giants club, to make up for dumping your str as well, and the int crown from the ogre means you can have a ridiculously stated character that can be your face and not require item slots that can then be used by your other characters, and can sneak/steal.
5 warlock for pact blade for charisma to be your damage stat and the extra attack. 4rogue for thief subclass for extra action and feat. 3 monk for flury, wisdom to ac. 4 ki points and way of the shadow subclass abilities.
Wondering what ya think?
Also, curious if you would be interested in building a 'super ultra multiclass' builld. I saw a guy who built a charisma build with sorc/bard/paly/warlock/cleric/wizard. I think* and then i think he went bard secrets? so he used cleric/wizard to get non wis/int spells and the free stuff you get from sorc/paly/warlock since they are so front loaded and then used bard to get the 2 uber spells.
BUT, I was thinking that a 4fighter/4rogue/1monk/1sorc/1cleric/1paly could be sick. But, I like that because all of the classes are so front-loaded, it's very interesting how much you can abuse that, by taking just 1 level in a class for the first, maybe 5 or 6 levels, to maximize all that frontloaded power, then focus on one class for the rest of the game to access the bigger stuff you can get access to later in your class. I was even thinking if you went 6 class level 1's, and then 6 levels in fighter, so you get the extra attack and still get 2 feats, while getting all that front loaded stuff from all the other 6 levels/classes.
Can only multi class into three
When I first leveled up the cleric/druid build, I added a subclass of druid but why do I get level 2 cleric/1druid and not 1 cleric/2 druid like in the video?
when you level you can pick where your level goes into.
I'm a complete noob to this game I recently bought it a few days ago, so I'm really curious... does your race choice matter on any of these builds particularly??
When you create a race if you scroll down to the abilities under you can read what each of them do in not sure what race is the fastest but a faster race might benefit the last build some
Adding additional damage type of you can to the thunderstomp build or another reverb item may make it work faster too
Awesome video!😊
Why can't i jump inifitly, Jumping costs a bonus action
you need a barbarian that takes the subclass to increase ally movement speed within 8 meters. when you enter and leave the radius you will gain movement speed and regain your jump and bonus action!
You forgot to use Step of the Wind.
Whenever I hear the word cleric . I think I'd better not admit i'm a cleric cuz patches lol
Do any of these builds work after the new update on ps5?
So I can't have someone not in my party cast Shield Of Faith. On console, as soon as i remove them from the group, the shield drops.
Pretty sure he says they have to be in the party. He says they dont have to be with you in the fight.
@@kitkami looks like it to me, but he said in the video to have someone not in the party cast it.
@@kitkami I watched it again, and he does say they have to be in your party. I'm trying to figure out how that works with this build and the concentration required for everything else to work. I might be able to give the thunder jump member a level of cleric to pull it off, but I'm not sure if that will break the build later in game.
I don’t have an option to select Druid class like you did so how did you do it
upwards to the right there is the option to level other classes
>Actually OP builds
>I pick life domain cleric for le epic extra 2 healing points in a game with instant short rests, tons of healing magic items and generous amounts of food for full restores whenever I want.

Can anyone tell me why it’s not letting me pick Druid in my subclass? The option isn’t even presented to me
Are you on Explorer mode? If so change to Balanced or above. Explorer doesn’t allow multiclasses.
I'm on balanced and it's not showing up for me either wich is weird maybe because we are on console?
@@TheRyosteve first time to multi-class? when you level up, look for an icon/button that says 'add class' or 'change class' (forgot what it says exactly).
@user-wu1ke8th9i thank you I got it I think it was called multiclass and you had to press x on xbox when you lvld up
Sir,they work there not broken 😊
I would like to see a Thunder Build.
Dexterity eldritch knight is very tanky, has 20 ac with mage armor and a shield, can use shield spell as reactionary for 25 ac, and is tanky to hold concentration.
please add some time stamp
Jumping build has me laughing so hard
Doesnt gloom stalker gets fog cloud as well?
Also i killed that golem in adamant forge with magic misiles 😂 he should be immune but hes not 😂
How
@@mightymondplays he needs to stand in lava or fire field and hes not immune anymore
These aren't really builds - these are gimmicks.
Please, tell us the difference between them
@@nCedric1 it takes advantage of the game mechanics or flaw instead of exchanging attacks. I guess they're still build. Gimmick builds
Try using four party members with 2 light cleric/2 bard. You get to use 4 radiance of the dawn (huge AOE) per short rest. and you will have 7 short rests per day.
How do you get 7 short rests?
Two regular short rests + 4 bards with song of rest.@@Firespark81
Oh I read that as 2 clerics and 2 bards not 4 hybrids. Hahaha
so is the 1st build viable throughout the entire game? or does it fall off heavily at a certain point
Viable but relatively slow. For a backline dmg dealer, it's great. Played it with moon druid my first playthru
Hey you figured it out!
Very cool! 😎
4 early game broken builds.
me: um the builds work so how are they 'broken'?
Not that kinda broken. Broken in a good way.
Great!
When is it ‘come online’? 😂
adamantine shield on your blur
didnt even have the x4 holy hand grenade build
Build druid work all mode honor?
Sanctuary + moonbean
It does but I wouldn't suggest doing it the whole time maybe just until you're level 5 or so
It's a great build to begin fights and pick off a few annoying enemies before sending in your whole team. I'd actually suggest going circle of moon instead of land, because even if you miss the extra spell slot, Dire Raven at level 5 is amazing for exploration and speedrunning waypoints/ceremonial weapons at the Githyanki creche. Plus, bear form is a great way to spend your "sanctuary blocked" turn. After level 5 I would probably respec into a light cleric or something, because you should have all the broken OP gear from grymforge/underdark/gith creche to create a dodge/debuff tank with all the radiant orb/reverberation gear.
this one i need to cheese enemies lol
Might take the mobility feat instead of great weapon..
It's the fighting style not feat. You can't get the feat. You could go full monk and get the feat but the you would not have action surge.
the game has tremendous power creep, i level to 12 before I got the last two gems and continued to walk over many foes with my insane ac and damaging attacks, this was in balanced mode. They said that they felt that giving higher levels was too much, I would say so with all the montyhaul treasures you guys gave out or presented to buy. As a dm looking at this game there is way too many magical items and powerful ones as well, just cutting them down is not enough. I mean come on facing an arch devil on his home plan and an avatar for the god of death all should be epic levels not 10 to 12.
My brain melted. None of these are broken or optimal at level 4
Bro what are you even talking about? Did you even watch the video? Each of these can solo anything at level 4 and 2 completely shut down the ai lmao. Your brain is definitely melted.
Pritty sure you can get heldusk armour in act1 an a legendary wepon slap that on a fighter an its over 🤔🤣🤣
I cannot pick Druid as a subclass when I hit level 3 The option doesn't even come up and I'm only a cleric.
You are in story mode. Change your game mode.
Your in story mode. If you want to play story modes and multi class use the custom mode and just enable multiclass

Btw Sanctuary is only unlocked on cleric LV2 (at least on tactician), so cant do the cleric/moonbean on tac solo at lv4
That is completely false. It's a level one spell and all the footage and character respecs here are all done in tactician. Shadowheart also starts with it lmao. bg3.wiki/wiki/Sanctuary
Why on earth would you even think this?
I'm on a playthrough right now that I started yesterday, and it only unlocks after lv2

you can get sanctuary level 1 on the prepared spells choice it is not automatically selected you have to remove one and add it instead.
