BG3 Class Tier List 

Halflings?

4 halfling barbarians or nothin

Or just building them for throwing, like he briefly mentioned but then strongly undervalued. TB Berserker's damage output comes online faster than any other damage build (because most of its core gear is frontloaded, you can be dealing 200+ DMG/round before you exit Act 1) - and it remains one of the strongest single class damage dealers throughout the entire game as a result. Fighter doesn't even come close to passing it until Level 11 and Extra Attack II.

Okoii get out of here we're trying to have a rational discussion

@@willdigforfood5065 exactly im not sure what this guy is on but with berserker youre making 3 2H-attacks with +10 damage feat +rage bonus at level 5 per round and all of these attacks have advantage while you have DR against all phys damage + highest hitpoint progression in the game (all of that without external buffs). No other class gets so early and consistent unconditional advantage on attacks and gets as much use out of great weapon master early on as a result. The fact all of the amazing berserker/barb class features are super early make it one of the best dips in the game and best early game martials period. And if you do get enough items and extra attack 2 eventually by lategame you can always respec but thats a huge chunk of the game that fighter is just straight worse. And then theres the whole throwing line which is also item supported super early on with returning pike being available as early as goblin camp.

That's my next run.

Oh damn. Pitching this idea to my buddies for multi-player campaign.

We got a group of 5 (with mods) all Bards and our group name is the "Absolute Bangers"

I play 4 bards all the time, I got use to free short rests so much that everything else seems wasteful and slow :D (all together 6 short rest / 1 long which allows things like getting through complete acts with 1-2 long rest))

but why wouldn't you long rest and trigger some cutscenes...there's plenty resources and fun roleplayin stuff to think about it@@CraftyF0X

Thats just D&D my gamer

Speech and persuasion always dominate in crpg.

That's more due to convenience than power, really. You can still do a lot of persuading and such so long as you don't dump charisma on your main character, proficiencies and Guidance (either yours or Shadowheart's) go a really long way.

Blame 5e the not very well designed game that BG3 is based off of. They did a lot to make the system better but there's no way to make 5e balanced without just making a new system.

That was my thoughts as a new player ignorant of D&D 5E mechanics, when I finished the game with my bard, warlock, paladin, and cleric I was like "that's it? this game is broken for the charisma classes" you don't want to main anything but a charisma modifier class after playing BG3

I did that too and my poor 1hp fighter(Laezel) literally got downed by one of the turned dogs biting it and this was in Act 3 with level 12 charecters so I almost shed tears

Omfg, I love wild magic. My first playthrough as a sorcerer and I turned into a fucking sheep out of nowhere and it stayed in the citscene. Laughed my ass off.

then the spore zombies too! ohhh and also turn to stone. someone mouths off to me in lower city and i'll just go invis real quick and petrif them xD

If only it ever actually happened

@@jamesdeer3129what?

Yep. I didn't realize this when I got to lvl 5 and it was a nice little surprise seeing I could do an extra attack in my wildshape.

It was long overdue considering the hit chance is Xcom

Add tavern brawler for amazing hit chances in wild shape

Honestly, the hit chance is pretty close to actual tabletop. I cannot tell you how often either A) The DM rolls well. Or B) The player rolls $#!T. And in Tabletop there is NO reload button, just sayin! @@csguak

@@Lankyjam1988 Seriously?! Well, I know what I have to change one of my characters into.

Edlvocation wizard to add 4 damage per magic missile hit

add spellsparkler to that with reverbation gloves and callous ring

And Hex to add 1d6 to every missile

add Phalar Aluve shrieking bonus

@@vince4503 bruh your tip just made my sorc fucking unstoppable. Sending a W for you

Lmfao i gotta try that out

And then add a few levels of pact of the blade warlock and you go from overpowered to God-like.

ok im making my astarion into a sword bard!

@@blackbox8697 Literally my first build. Plus make you pact weapon with shadow blade and you're doing a ton of psychic damage.

I did that, and never knew that's what it was for!

​@@messitupyou belong in the RP-tier lol

@@messitup I agree fighter is kinda vanilla by itself but it's no denying fighter is stronk. I always build multiclass around them though

and you belong to the tierwhore tier.@@candyhandsjf7288

​@@messitupexcept in this game it really isn't

Bard is in fact the best Tav class if you want to have easier out of combat experience because they have dex and cha as their main stats. Easy dialogue dice rolls and opening locks.

Bard was, other than barb, the only class I have never played in dnd-ish games. For that reason, I knew going in I was going to try the bard main in BG3. At this point, I cant see ever choosing anything but Bard on my main again. The utility and "face", coupled with the ability to be a top-end martial or caster class via colleges, is just too much net value for me to pass up. Similarly, I was shocked how effective, and fun, the battle master is. Another pleasant surprise.

Bard is really good for a party that doesn't spam long rest and save scums. The extra short rest and bardic inspiration are really good when doing a DND like play through.

It’s always funny to see comments about how surprising people find that hard is good. Given that as a table top player, bards are probably the overall “strongest” class because of their versatility

@@kylevanderwolf4446 Bard in 5e is pretty busted. They can do everything.

I can't wait to play as a wizard

My first Playthru, I played a life domaine cleric, had Gale as a necromancer wizard, halisan as a spore druid, and Astarion, with a few other summons (us, scratch, scrolls etc) Every character that could would cast animate dad at max level. Plus any elemental/woodland summons they had. Like if you’re bringing 25 entities (that you’ve up-casted aid on,) into a battle you’re gonna have the upper hand.

It's good but the main problem is that it is quite annoying to play. By the time my necromancer wizard really came online I was in act 3, and act 3 is mostly tight urban environment, having all of my summons up makes traversal and exploration a nightmare I ended up having to ditch it despite the power

I always found monks to be bonkers good in tabletop but that might have just been the builds I used

​@@q.7556monks are great, it's gm that are shit at creating encounters that diverge from "stand were you are and hit each other until someone falls". And even like that they are the god kings of martial at tier one. And while clunky, 4 elements have always been one of the best monk subclass (more so in the tabletop BTW).

Problem with warlock in 5e is that hexblade warlock exists. It is the reason people multiclass to it. Larian kinda merged hexblade into their version of pact of the blade anyway though. Which is great because it moves what is normally a 1 level dip into an actual investment. Its a healthy change.

​@@chronic6428The copium to say that 4 elements is the best monk subclass dude

@@condimentking3395 In bg3? No. In 5e? It's up there with way of mercy.

I’m so disappointed in moon Druid. I came to this game as a 5e player and I adore moon Druid there, so I figured what could go wrong? I was *appalled* to hear him say other circles can turn into owl bears. That’s moon Druid territory man! We are the combat wild shapers! In 5e, we’re only good because we are the only ones who can turn into something remotely powerful.

​@@Mega_CroissantamenceI see your point but in DND owlbears are monstrosity not beast so you can't even wildshape into a owlbear

@@Mega_Croissantamence to be honest I'm not too surprised by this, part of what makes Moon Druid so meta is due to creativity that you can't easily express in a video game. Then again I've always found the subclass to stifling in normal play (you sacrifice so much by playing any other circle), so I see any excuse for a Druid to not go Moon and never look back a good thing.

​@@grillsyj889that's what they mean though. Recast concentration spells like moonbeam and call lighting can't be activated even if you are concentrating on them because your situational action table disappears when you wild shape

@@grillsyj889 no I'm saying that ime 90% sure the original comment is talking about how you can't recast concentration spells. They just said activate instead of reactivate because they were thinking of the initial step as casting and all the recasts as "activations"

Maybe you been playing in early game? Because before level 5 rogue is really good. Even after 5 it can be good but I believe it falls off somewhere in mid to late game

@@Zeeros100 I beat the game as a Rogue. I switched my class from Arcane Trickster to Pickpocket in Act 3. The spells for Arcane Trickster are neat and useful sometimes, but they don’t compare to the damage output with melee and Sneak Attack. High crit chances, constant advantage, high evasion, and also lockpicking anything with ease made the game a blast. My only regret is not using Greater Invisibility more.

@@Zeeros100 I think it falls off from levels 6-10 a bit but reliable talent is just such a nice quality of life improvement

@@Zeeros100 once you hit level 7 multi class to a ranger. By level 12 youre getting a ridiculous amount of attacks off and there's a number of finesse weapons with great stats

In a multiplayer game I'm in you can really see the power imbalance. My friend is playing an assassin rogue and I'm a gloomstalker ranger In the first round, where we are both at our strongest, I'm getting 4 attacks at level 5 (7 if I'm the one that initiates it, but I usually let him do it because it's kinda the whole point of his build), each dealing about 24ish damage per hit, he's making two attacks, dealing about 30 damage per hit.... After the fight gets going I'm still making 3 attacks per round dealing the same damage and he's making one that deals about 11

That's awesome! I usually take resilient con on my casters anyways. Big fan of starting with 15 in constitution for that reason. Great find!

Problem is that illithid powers are useless in shifted form.

​@@spellandshieldyeah I hope they update wild shape, also being able to move moonbeam.

@@Sheamu5 You can always use mods.

Druid is also just one of the strongest classes in the game. Like, Actually top 3 possibly top 2. Anyone who says they're lower is off their rocker.

I haven't experimented with it that much, thanks for the heads up!

dude try the air elemental - you stun each turn. you can also cast mass silence, teleport and fly.

I don't think you should count the max level feats like wildshaping into elementals ... most of the game is spent at levels 1-6

@IishPotato Disagree. In my experience level cap tends to be hit VERY early in act 3, which is already a hugely long section of the game, so a massive portion of the game is spent capped out

​@@IishPotatowtf lol. End of act 1 you are level 8

This was like one of the first classes I thought of and it deals insane damage. Like 150 damage every turn consistently

Multiclassed with Gloomstalker you just kill everything before they can ever get their first turn

As a thief you can use 2 parasite powers in 1 turn as a bonus action, assassinstion just cant beat that

Arcane trickster definitely should've been below it.

One of the big problems I started having with an assassin character on Tactician was that halfway through Act 2 important enemies would frequently have resistance or straight up immunity to slashing/piercing damage which is 99% of what rogues do, and afaik the class doesn't have ANY native way to bypass nonmagical resistances. Assassins also have an awful dichotomy where they tend to curbstomp most fights before they begin, but they really struggle to contribute meaningfully in setpiece fights when the whole team gets pulled into dialogue and you aren't allowed to get that opening shot to kick things off. The lack of extra attacks also makes rogues particularly vulnerable to lowrolls, a single nat 1 on an attack or damage roll can devastate your partiy's momentum in a lategame fight

@@Legacy0901 use Diluted oil of sharpness

​@@Khagasa thief with access to hand crossbows and sharpshooter is godly

@@Khagas Works even better multi-classed as ranger or fighter for even more attacks. Add in sharpshooter plus some accuracy and other on-hit damage buffs.

Don't forget cloud giant potion which gives 27 str

tavern brawler and strength increases applies to all monks, not just to Shadow Monk. A well made striker monk is going to delete most people when they hit them under such circumstances anyway so the advantage from it is a minor boon that is more valuable when your strength isn't pushed that high, and can just use step of the wind dash for the movement without the shadow restriction anyway.

While I don't disagree, my 23 AC Sorcadin in act 2 with shield is incredibly durable and hard to hit. I think with full itemization in Act 3 I could get 26 AC add in shield and crit immunity, well it's a bit silly.

@@DemonLordSparda no doubt sorcadins are amazing, but they are way more rigid in their playstyle 😊 my karlach got respected into sorcadin, for maximum smite power, I use her for "maximum obliteration", while I use druid for everything else 😁

@ That's a devastating combo. I love making strong builds.

@@DemonLordSparda and man, does this game really give you a lot of options for that! Now I can't wait to mod my game and add bladesingers, artificers and wildfire druids, that's gonna be amazing... Can't fucking wait 😁

Spore druid can be insane if done right

UNLIMITED POWER!

Best class in terms of power and fun!

Saying sorcerer is good is not all that controversial, hah. Is there any DnD crpg where sorc is bad?

lol it's not that it's controversial or anything, it's just in all my years of dnd experience no one has ever had any interest in playing a sorcerer besides me, who's the forever dm. My groups tend to lean towards weaponry classes than the magic classes overall. Even now in BG3 I am the only person I know in my friend group that plays a sorcerer. So it's just exciting for me to see love being given to my favorite class! @@exantiuse497

Sorry, but I think Sorc is only good for twinning haste on the real classes then hiding away

My party beat the githyanki creche abusing spike growth, and doors. We would wipe half the encounter without even touching them. Spike growth and knife tornado in a doorway, with a darkness arrow to cover our barbarian doorman.

I can attest to how good spike growth is. My wild magic surged and caused it to grow under my squad at the start of a fight. Completely fucked us, lol.

Now imagine that spike growth is even heavily nerfed in this game as people can fucking jump out of it! 😁 And when you push people with eldritch blast into it, they fly above big part of that push back, not taking full damage! And yet, it's still gamechanger spell all the way up to 7th level I feel

Most Druid players have this sentiment. I just got into a massive argument with one of my friends about this exact thing. Gives examples of how Druid can be good in very specific circumstances, which is inarguable, but this is a relative power tier list where classes that are less niche are stronger.

I had a playthrough where my spore druid was the tank, with only 1 dip into war cleric.

I have Jaheira as a spore druid, that chest piece has let her do some awesome stuff. Being able to haste a group every turn as a bonus action is nuts

"Spore druids is op, you just need an item you get when you have already completed 85% of the game" Amazing. Redditor. Take. Here is your updoots

​@@JuanAntonioGarciaHeredia I didn't say in any moment that it was op, not everything is about numbers or killing the bosses in 1 turn...I just say that the spore druid is amazing refering to that is very funny to play and cool.

@@BrussLSproutsthis is just kinda wrong, I mean obviously every class can complete honor mode, but it’s pretty obvious some classes are just superior to others

Thanks for the thoughtful reply!

I'm trying to build eldrich knight too. Any equipments you recommened? Also the ring you said that let you cast as a bonus action, do you happened to remember what it is? Thanks!

@@financeorelse Band of the Mystic Scoundrel. I recommend Helmet of Arcane Acuity as well.

@@financeorelse First thing to focus on is good defense, because Shield is a whopping +5 reaction block. The harder you are to hit for your regular AC, the less Spell slots you have to commit to Shield for blocking and the more damning it becomes when an enemy finally punches through and you casually swat the attack away with Shield. Pretty much just grab equipment through the game that adds AC (there are gloves, boots and a cape that add +1 AC by Act 2, almost all of them sold by merchants iirc) and you're effectively enjoying a Fighter that's near impossible to hit for most of the game. Some good Feat options are Ability improvement (you have a lot of stats you benefit from: STR, DEX, CON, INT, and to a lesser extent Wisdom just for your own defensive saving throws), Tavern Brawler, Shield Master and potentially something like Defensive Duelist, (a "mini-Shield spell" that demands you use a finesse weapon) Lucky, or Savage Attacker, but these are more preference. Tavern Brawler works because you have Bound Weapon, so this means you can safely throw your primary weapon, have it return to you, and throw it again. Realize that anything with the "Thrown" condition retains it's base damage values when thrown, whilst other weapons instead deal a generic D4 instead of their base weapon damage. (but with your modifiers still added to the D4) For this reason Thrown weapons are better for this, but there's other weapons that can be worth using for this too. (for example, as he highlighted, Eldritch Knight causes disadvantage on applying ANY status effect, so throwing a non-throwable scimitar with a blind effect can still be a reliable method of applying Blind) Shield Master is interesting because it means if you Dex save against a Spell, you take zero damage instead of half, and if you fail the check, you still only take half. This means not only are you a tank vs. physical damage, but spell damage as well. There are even some endgame equipment items that let you use a reaction to AUTOMATICALLY succeed a Dex save, so you can just straight-up delete spellcasters with this. I prefer a shield + thrown weapon because this allows me to both boost my AC up high, negate any enemy spells that use Dexterity saves (the majority of pure damage spells), and you can get ridiculous damage and accuracy by throwing a bound weapon. *For specific endgame gear:* *Nyrulna* - Act 3 Trident that deals ridiculous damage when thrown. Synergizes stupidly well with Tavern Brawler and when wielded with one hand, can deal up to 39 damage when thrown. (non-crit) *This weapon is automatically bound when thrown, meaning you're free to Bound ANOTHER weapon alongside it!* The way the game seems to work is the last weapon you threw automatically becomes your equipped weapon, so for example if you wanted to Bound the Susser Dagger to silence any mages with a throw, the Dagger would become your primary when thrown, and then you simply throw Nyrulna from your inventory if you want it to return to your main hand. This means you are free to effectively have *TWO* main weapons you can cycle through without having to waste an action to equip the other: you merely throw the one you want to become your main hand weapon. *Viconia's Walking Fortress* - Act 3 shield that gives you +3 AC to make you harder to hit, gives you *ADVANTAGE* on Saving throws against spells so you're even more of a menace for casters. *Helldusk Boots* - If you fail a Saving Throw, you can spend a reaction to automatically succeed instead. This means you basically cannot be damaged by Spells, if combined with Viconia's Walking Fortress and Shield Master. *Band of the Mystic Scoundrel* - This is the ring that lets you cast Enchantment or Illusion spells as a bonus action. For Eldritch Knights, this is Tasha's Hideous Laughter and Hold Person as your debuffs you can apply after giving them disadvantage against your spells. You can also use certain gear items that let you cast spells like Confusion, if you like. *Eversight Ring* - By no means a requirement and more preference, but with this you cannot be Blinded, so you're free to cast Darkness, sit in it, and anything attacking you has disadvantage + moves slower through the Darkness itself. You can basically sit in it and throw your weapon or fire arrows safely on enemies outside it, but they can't really fire back. *Armor of Agility/Armor of Persistence* - Again preference: Armor of Agility can provide the highest AC possible. If you get your Dex to 22, then your Armor Class with this armor will be 23, since Armor of Agility has 17 base AC and doesn't cap your Dex modifier. (+6 with 22 Dex) Alternatively, you can take Armor of Persistence, which instead only provides only 20 AC, but halves all physical damage as a constant buff. An important caveat is that if you feel it's important to lower physical damage by half for any specific turn ONLY, you could take Blade Ward as a cantrip, and with War Caster (Eldritch Ability), you can buff yourself with Blade Ward and then still get a free attack in as a Bonus Attack. Blade Ward doesn't stack with Armor of Persistence, so this means either you have the effect permanently on with Armor or Persistence, OR you buff it as necessary with Armor of Agility and sacrifice two of your three attacks every second turn to do so. *For spells:* Generally you avoid damage spells and focus on utility since your Intelligence might not be so high. The only spells on this list that require any degree of intelligence to optimize would be the CC ones like Hold Person. Otherwise, you're fairly free to neglect Intelligence and not level it. Either works: High intelligence means you're a spellcaster where your enemies have disadvantage against your control spells, low intelligence means you still have great utility spells with "meh" ability to use CC spells. Shield is a must because a +5 to your AC *as a reaction* to deny the hits that get through is sick. Magic Missile can be nice as a guarantee method of getting off damage if you're facing a strong opponent with like 9 HP left that's difficult to hit. Blur is a self buff concentration spell that makes all incoming attacks have disadvantage against you. This means you could make someone have disadvantage and then on the off-chance they still land an attack, you block it with Shield. Darkness, as outlined above, can be an alternative to Blur, or you can easily use both situationally. Darkness for example can be defensive for your team if you need damage to stop hitting your team period at the cost of your team also being Blinded while you yourself are not with the Eversight Ring, whereas Blur buffs you without affecting anyone else. Mirror Image, but I consider this "meh." The problem is it's a nice +9 to AC, but each time you're attacked and the opponent misses, you lose 3 AC. I feel like Eldritch Knight can already deny loads of attacks with Shield and Blur, so this might be wasteful overkill as opposed to just saving a spell slot for one of those. Hold Person. As outlined above, with that ring, you can cast this as a Bonus action after a normal weapon attack, and this means you could theoretically cast Hold Person whilst your target has disadvantage, and then get GUARANTEED CRITS off hold person twice before your turn even ends. Tasha's Hideous Laughter. Just a good alternative to if Hold Person won't work on a target. Misty Step. Just good utility in general. Crown of Madness or Enlarge. More alternatives to Hold Person or Blur. Crown just makes an enemy frenzy and attack the nearest living thing, Enlarge I believe is a D4 buff to your damage, if you just want more of that. Magic Weapon. +1 to attack roll and damage. Simple enough, and luckily NOT a concentration spell so you can combine it with these others.

My Moon druid tav carried the whole party on many encounters in my first run.

but then you got to turn your sexy characters into stupid looking animals with 0 customization.

I forget about resonant punch. it's the only reason that I would put open hand over 4 elements for full capability. 4 elements has a couple of styles but resonant does edge things out. otherwise I would consider them kind of equal. Open Hand does Pushing, proning, and Sturnning for a bit less cost and a little easier. But 4 elements puts in a different kind of stun that is potentially multi-turn with their ability to hold person, they can add on fire damage from very early on, and they can have a pull to use as well. Most of these things they can be had from level 3 like the open hand monk. Resonant punch is a bit easier to use than fireball is for 4 elements monk though.

using NEVER in caps is a bit of a stretch though buddy. There are enemies in Act 3 on Tactician who can slap you for 40+ damage in a hit. Yeah with that necklace does set CON to 22 so that's +6 (and +4 prof) for +10. If you take 40 damage then your DC to maintain Conc is 20, if you roll with Adv then your odds of maintaining Conc are 79%. (96% if they hit for 30 damage) That's high, but that isn't *NEVER* territory by a long stretch. Also getting stunned or knocked prone etc can still break it.

Hunger of Hadar is great control against trash mobs, but trash mob fights tend to be easy to clear anyways, so I prefer single target spells like Hold Monster. Of course that is too simple a generalization, but hopefully you get what I am trying to say.

@@Aestus_RPG lol, thats the whole point of cc, to cc trash, bosses die in turn 1 basically.

You may be right, it seems a lot of folks agree with you!

Human fighter! There's a meme for people just like you lmao.

Why don’t you go and film a tier list then?

I'm playing a open hand monk/thief right now and just completely owning the game. The dmg output and reliability far exceeds anything else in the game.

I'm in the editing phase for Act 2 weapons. Should be out Monday.

Yesssss

I love monks so much. If Larian ever adds more subclasses I hope Drunken Master is one of them. Not the strongest but, in my experience, the most satisfying by far.

Based. You shouldn't agree with all my choices, because I am almost certainly wrong about some of them.

Yeah, Nature Cleric just doesn't get much use of their features and is missing their level 6 feature. Really terrible oversight from Larian, but not as bad as missing Trickery's level 6 feature. Shadowheart is one of the primary companions! Knowledge is also missing this, its bizarre that the 3 weakest Cleric domains are also all missing the same feature. Its too big of a coincidence imo, someone at Larian seems to have snubbed these domains hard.

I'm trying to role play as Liu Kang from Mortal Kombat with Way of the Four Elements. I have to admit that my main doesn't do the most dmg in my team (in Tactician fyi).

Basically Worst of both Caster and Martial class.

What would be a good alternative fighter-eld?

The only thing good about it is that the elemental abilities are not "spells" so a Barbarian can cast them while raging and use Flurry of Blows in the same turn. You can have a Wild Elemental Bonk.

@@ThanhLai5 Throw in some Barbarian Levels for your Liu Kang. The Elemental abilities aren't "spells" so you can cast them while raging.

My first play through was Druid. Man dropping a fire wall on a group, or moonbeam, or growth and then wildhshape to move the board ready to attack was great. I used bear til I got sabertooth tiger I think it was. Then wildhsape into the elementals when needed. Had so much versatility. I enjoyed it a lot.

I had a lot of fun on my spore druid so i was surprised to see it so low. however I very much abused a 1 level wizard dip to make up for some of the spell shortcomings with learned scrolls. also I like GOO over Fiend as the temp HP is overshadowed by the CC lategame, but either way the Deepend Pact (Blade) is busted.

Yeah that’s exactly what I’m doing rn and it’s great. I’ll very occasionally use a support spell but 99% of the time I’m just going for a smite.

Not rly fun gameplay tbh, i prefer playing barb and throw ppl into the chasm or into another npc

Ahh finally ! This guy gets it ! I literaly can't even fathom that he said monks are more boring than fighters. Of all the things to compare the two classes between one another he chose the worst. Monks are undeniably less boring.

Openhand Taverbrawler most OP specc in the game IMO. If you stack STR to 24 in the lategame the dmg is just unreal.

That wasn't a mistake. Sorcerer's can get Eldritch Blast if they take it as a feat, which I clearly mentioned in the video. However, I will be making an update for honour mode.

@@Aestus_RPG I went back through and CLEARLY didn't hear that part the first time listening. My apologies, and thank you for pointing that out. I'm looking forward to the next video

Sounds like a potent build, Gloomstalker Ranger + Assassin Rogue for the ultimate first-move killer. I will disagree on the idea that Ranger and Rogue are inherently bad classes alone though. Lots of good items for Rogue's in BG3, and Assassin shines early game while Thief shines later, (Fast Hands gives you two Bonus Actions, very overpowered with dual Hand crossbows.) I would agree that Rogue's true potential is reached via multiclassing- but a pure Ranger is actually very powerful in BG3. The Beastmaster summons scale surprisingly well.

Add two levels of fighter and now you can use action surge to make first round even better. That's my Astarian build and I am taking multiple enimies out before anyone else gets a turn, My tev is a Druid/Barbarian and I am always debating if I should rage or not because by the time it comes to their turn, it's clear the combat is gonna be over in a couple of rounds max :D

I played a Beast Master Ranger 8/Thief Rogue 4 in my first playthrough. I had 4 attacks at level 8

@@OsamaZahid308 I don't like the fighter dip, since you can also go Ranger 8/ Rogue 4 for two entire feats more. Yes this hurts your nova, but you can then cast better spells, hit more often by getting Dex to 20 etc.

I did the same on my first playthrough which I just finished. Gloomstalker + assassin is super fun
